Task flow for using Adabas Connector

To use Adabas Connector, create a source connection, mapping, and mapping task. Also create a target connection if one is not already defined.
Before you begin, in the Administrator, you must complete the prerequisite tasks. See Prerequisite tasks for using Adabas Connector for more information.
    1In Administrator, create a source connection with the type of Adabas. Test the connection.
    Alternatively, you can create a source connection in Data Integration when you configure a mapping.
    Adabas Connector uses this connection to retrieve source metadata and data records from PowerExchange.
    2Create a target connection that has a supported target type, if one is not already defined.
    3In Data Integration, configure a mapping. Validate the mapping and then save it.
    4Create a mapping task that is associated with the mapping.
    5Run the mapping task manually, or create a schedule to run it on a recurring basis. For more information, see Running a mapping task.
    6Monitor the job status for the mapping task instance. For more information, see Monitoring a mapping task.
    If a job has the status of Failed or Warning, check the session log for related error or informational messages. Then try to correct the issues that caused the failure and restart the mapping task..
