You can create the following configurations from the

Configurations

page and use them in assessment and conversion tasks:

Repoint Configuration

Contains the repoint configuration for assessment. You can use this configuration in assessment tasks to evaluate the feasibility of repointing the assets to another endpoint.

Connection Map

Contains mappings between the PowerCenter connections and the corresponding cloud connections. You can use this configuration in conversion tasks.

Conversion Properties

Contains basic and advanced conversion properties. You can use this configuration in conversion tasks to override the default conversion behavior.

You can convert PowerCenter parameter files to

Data Integration

parameter files. Create a

Parameter File Conversion Task

from the

Repositories

page, view and run the job from the

Parameter File Conversion Tasks

page, and monitor the status of the job on the

My Jobs

page.

You can configure a new conversion property,

overrideToSessionConnectionType

to set the source or target connection type as per the session specific connection type. This flag applies to non-repointing scenarios when the source or target uses a different relational database than the session-level connection type.

You can configure a new conversion property,

UseDsqPrecisionAndScale

to set the native precision and scale for string data type as per the source qualifier. You can set this property when you repoint to any one of the following endpoints:

Google BigQuery
Amazon Redshift
PostgreSQL
Databricks
Snowflake
Azure Synapse

You can configure a new conversion property,

SrcNativeFieldsBasedOnSQFields

to set the native precision and scale for string, decimal, and date time data types based on the source qualifier. This flag applies to non-repointing scenarios for the following connections:

Oracle
ODBC
Microsoft SQL Server
Teradata
Sybase ASE
DB2 Loader
