Before you begin configuring Datacom connections, mappings, and mapping tasks, you must complete several prerequisite tasks in PowerExchange and in Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services Administrator. Make sure you have a user role that allows you to perform these tasks.
•Verify that a supported PowerExchange version is installed and that PowerExchange is configured and able to retrieve data from Datacom source tables.
•In the PowerExchange Navigator, check that an active PowerExchange data map exists for each Datacom source table.
•If your site uses TLS or SSL security, verify that valid certificates are available for the source and target servers and that the PWX_CONFIG environment variable points to the dbmover configuration file that includes the SSL configuration for the PowerExchange Listener. For more information about configuring TLS or SSL security, see the PowerExchange Reference Manual.
•If you localize PowerExchange messages in Japanese, before you start the Secure Agent, create a copy of the PowerExchange dbmover_ja.cfg file. Then set the PWX_CONFIG environment variable to point to the copy. For more information about the dbmover_ja.cfg configuration file, see the PowerExchange Reference Manual.
•Download the Secure Agent. The Secure Agent can then download the Datacom Connector components and PowerExchange Client packages based on your licensing. The download also creates a Secure Agent group that contains a Secure Agent as the runtime environment. You can add another Secure Agent to the group. You must have at least one runtime environment in each organization so that users in the organization can run tasks.
Note: Datacom Connector does not support the Hosted Agent.
•In Administrator, configure user roles if the predefined roles are not sufficient. Then assign one or more roles to each user or user group. The roles must provide the privileges that the users require to perform all of their tasks. Usually, the organization administrator configures user roles.
•If you do not want users to run scheduled mapping tasks during a certain period, define a blackout period for all schedules on the Schedules page in Administrator.
