Before you begin

Before you assess a repository, perform the following steps.

Create a directory which is accessible from the domain machine and the secure agent. The user who started the Informatica Domain and Secure Agent must have read, write, and execute permissions on this shared directory location. Create the following folders within the shared directory location:

<SharedDirectoryLocation>\<DomainDisplayName>\<RepositoryName>\Templates

For example, if the name of the CDI-PC repository that you are going to assess is

Test_Repo

and the display name of the domain is

Test_Domain

, create the folders in the following format:

<SharedDirectoryLocation>\Test_Domain\Test_Repo\Templates

Collect the parameter files from your PowerCenter or Data Engineering Integration environment and store them in the ZIP format in the folder created in step 1.

Parameter files are the configuration files that are used for running workflows and sessions present in a repository. Parameter files are optional for assessment.

If your version is April 2024 or newer, the file name for the assessment of PowerCenter repositories should be

PC_Parameter.zip

. For versions older than April 2024, the file name should be

PC_PARAMETER_ZIP.zip

. For the assessment of Model repositories, the file name should be

MRS_Parameter.zip

Create a Repoint configuration. For information on creating a Repoint configuration, see Creating a Repoint configuration.

Currently, you cannot perform only non-repointing assessment of Model repositories.

Assign the Admin role to the user running the assessment. For any assistance on assigning the Admin role, contact the administrator.
