Verify minimum system requirements
| Verify that the machines meet the hardware and software requirements for the
MDM Hub installation. The hardware requirements are dependent on the data, processing volumes, and business rules.
To install the MDM Hub, the machines must meet the following minimum requirements:
To verify the run-time physical memory requirements of the
MDM Hub components, use the following formula:
|
Install Java Development Kit (JDK)
| Install a supported version of the JDK on the machine on which you want to install the
MDM Hub . The JDK is not bundled with the
MDM Hub installers.
Use the same Java version on the application server machines and on the machines on which you want to launch the Hub Console.
If you want to install Informatica platform on HP-UX, install the supported version of the JDK on the HP-UX machine. The JDK is not bundled with the Informatica platform installer for HP-UX. The JDK is bundled with the Informatica platform installers for all other platforms.
|
Install Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2015 on Windows only
| On Windows systems,
Multidomain MDM requires Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2015 to support the name search feature and the matching feature.
|
Set environment variables
| Set the environment variables for the
MDM Hub installation.
To use the correct JDK, set the following environment variables to point to the JDK directory:
To set the correct locale behavior for Oracle, set the NLS_LANG environment variable for client application environments such as the Oracle loader, and the
MDM Hub components.
Specify the NLS_LANG parameter in the following format:
To store and search for records that contain Chinese, Japanese, Korean, or accented characters, set the character set to UTF-8.
For more information about NLS_LANG settings, see the Oracle documentation.
If you want to install Informatica platform with security enabled for the domain, set the INFA_TRUSTSTORE environment variable to point to the following directory:
|
Set the operating system locale
| Set the same operating system locale for the Hub Server, the MDM Hub Master Database, Operational Reference Store, and the Hub Console.
|
Set up the X Window System on UNIX
| If you want to run the installer in graphical mode on UNIX, set up an X Window System. An X Window System is a graphics display server. For more information about setting up an X Window System, see the documentation for your operating system.
|
Disable access to the root welcome page for your application server
| To improve security, disable access to the root welcome page for your application server. For instructions, see the documentation for your application server.
|
Disable insecure TLS cipher suites
| To improve security, in the Java runtime environment that is used with
Multidomain MDM , disable insecure TLS cipher suites.
For more information about the property, see the documentation for your JDK.

Validate the metadata
| Ensure the Operational Reference Stores (ORS) do not have any validation errors. If you upgrade the Hub Store when an ORS contains metadata that is not valid, the upgrade might generate unexpected results. Use the Repository Manager in the Hub Console to validate metadata. Resolve any validation issues and then validate the metadata again to confirm that you have resolved the validation issues.
Save a copy of the final validation results in the
upgradedoc upgrade documentation folder.
Use the Repository Manager tool in the MDM Hub Console to validate and then save the validation results.
|
Update persistent ID implementation
| If you use persistent IDs, contact Informatica Global Customer Support. You must update the persistent ID implementation to be compatible with the upgraded version of
Multidomain MDM .

|
Back up the implementation
| Back up your current implementation to retain your customizations and to allow you to restore the environment. If you encounter issues during the upgrade, you can restore your environment from the backup.
|
Configure the JAVA_HOME environment variable
| JBoss or WebLogic. If you apply the upgrade to the existing installation directory, perform the following steps:
|
Disable access to the root welcome page for your application server
| To improve security, disable access to the root welcome page for your application server. For instructions, see the documentation for your application server.
