Additional production organizations and sandbox organizations
If your organization has the appropriate license, you can create additional production organizations and sandbox organizations from the production organization. Create these organizations when you need separate organizations for different assets and users, but you want to manage all IPU usage from the production organization. Additional production organizations and sandbox organizations are automatically linked to the production organization.
You can create the following types of organizations:
Additional production organization
This is a separate production organization. It functions in the same way as the production organization, except that you cannot create additional production organizations or sandbox organizations from an additional production organization.
Sandbox organization
This is an organization that is typically used for asset development and testing. There is no difference in functionality between a sandbox organization and an additional production organization.
Additional production organizations and sandbox organizations are completely independent of the production organization and each other. They do not share assets, connections, runtime environments, or users. However, you can export and import assets between them.
The additional production organizations and sandbox organizations that you create inherit all licenses and editions from the production organization. If the production organization has the license to create sub-organizations, administrators in the additional production organizations and sandbox organizations can create sub-organizations for their organizations.
Additional production organizations and sandbox organizations appear on the Additional Organizations tab of the Organization page in the production organization. The Additional Organizations tab is shown in the following image:
When you create an additional production organization or a sandbox organization, you must enter the organization name and a user name for the organization administrator. You can log in to the new organization using this user account and add other users and assets.
After you create an additional production organization or a sandbox organization, you cannot disable or delete it, and you cannot unlink it from the production organization. If you need to do this, contact Informatica Global Customer Support.
Creating an additional organization
Create an additional production organization or a sandbox organization on the Additional Organizations tab of the Organization page.
Note: Creating additional production organizations or sandbox organizations can incur additional IPU charges for your organization.
To create an additional organization, you must be a native user with the Admin role or a native user with the "AdditionalOrg creation" and "AdditionalOrg view" privileges.
To create an additional organization:
1Log in to the production organization.
2Open Administrator and select Organization.
3Open the Additional Organizations tab.
4Click New Organization and select Additional Production Organization or Sandbox Organization.
5On the New Organization page, enter a user name for the administrator of the new organization and the organization name.
The user name must be unique. It must be a valid email address, or it can contain only alphanumeric characters, hyphens, underscores, periods, and apostrophes.
6Optionally, enter a description, the number of employees, and the address information.
7Click Save.
The new organization appears on the Additional Organizations tab, and the status is Enabled. Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services sends a welcome email for the new organization administrator to your email address.
8Log out of the production organization.
9Click the Confirm Account link in the welcome email, and follow the prompts to activate the account for the new organization administrator.
When you finish activating the account, Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services logs you in to the new organization.
After you log in to the new organization, you can add other users and create runtime environments, connections, and assets.
