The following topics provide information about the tasks that you must perform before you update a CDI-PC domain to 202504.
Mandatory update information
The April 2025 update to Cloud Data Integration for PowerCenter (CDI-PC) is a mandatory update. Mandatory updates must be applied by the due date. Domains that you don't update by the due date are marked obsolete.
Note: CDI-PC thick client updates are not mandatory. The clients released in the previous versions of CDI-PC are compatible with CDI-PC April 2025.
Effective in April 2025, CDI-PC uses version 11 of the Azul Java Development Kit. Azul’s Zulu JDK doesn't include any font files by default, but uses the available fonts provided by the operating system as high quality TTF files. To verify the fonts installed in the Linux machines, run the fc-match and fc-list commands.
Before you update a domain, make sure that the language fonts are installed in the Linux machine that hosts the domain node. Download and install the language fonts at the root level using the sudo user credentials.
To install a specific fontconfig package, run the following command based on the Linux distribution:
This command installs the fontconfig package and the DejaVu sans and serif font families on a Linux system using the yum package manager.
•SUSE Linux Enterprise (SLES)
sudo zypper install dejavu-fonts fontconfig
This command installs the DejaVu font family and the fontconfig library on a Linux system using the zypper package manager.
Windows operating system usually has a comprehensive set of fonts, including TTF files, that are pre-installed and readily available for use. Make sure that you do not enable the Set as my display language option as it will change your desktop language and might lock you out with unreadable text.
Skip update of PowerExchange libraries and files
If you are using PowerExchange Listener or Logger Services in a CDI-PC domain or if you are running Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) communication on a PowerExchange network, do not update the domain to CDI-PC version 202504. For more information, contact Informatica Global Customer Support.
Apply mandatory EBF 202410.15 for unique private keys on CDI-PC multi-node domains
Note: You can skip this mandatory EBF if one or more of the following conditions are true:
•You do not use a multi-node domain
•You do not use unique private keys on each node's keystore file of a multi-node domain
•You have already applied EBF 202404.8 to all nodes of the domain before updating to 202410, and you have not added new nodes to the domain in version 202410
•You created or migrated a domain in version 202504 for the first time
If you have multi-node CDI-PC domains that have nodes using unique private keys in their keystore files, you must apply EBF 202410.15 to those nodes before updating the domains to version 202504. Additionally, if you have added new nodes in version 202410 to the domain using unique private keys in their keystore files, you must apply EBF 202410.15 to all nodes before you update the domains to version 202504.
For more information about applying and managing an EBF, see Domain Updates.
Update of CDI-PC domains running as a Windows service
When you initiate an update of a CDI-PC domain running as a Windows service, the domain starts in the process mode instead of the service mode.
Reason: In JDK 9 and later releases, the java.endorsed.dirs system property is no longer available. CDI-PC April 2025 has upgraded its JDK version to 11. The java.endorsed.dirs JVM property is part of the registry in a Windows CDI-PC domain configured to start as a service. This specific registry entry was created while creating the domain and was not modified during the update from the CDI-PC service page (DMS).
Solution:
1After the domain is updated successfully, use the following command to stop the Informatica CDI-PC service on the target Windows system where you want to start the domain as a Windows service.
INFA_HOME/tomcat/bin/infaservice.bat shutdown
2Run the following command to remove the Informatica CDI-PC service:
