Sizing recommendations

To manage concurrent execution of multiple assessment and conversion jobs, Informatica recommends that you group the Secure Agents. When you group the Secure Agents, the task distribution is balanced between the Secure Agents, allowing each agent to process one assessment job and two conversion jobs simultaneously.
To enable parallel execution of two assessment tasks, ensure that you have at least two Secure Agents in the Secure Agent Group.
To ensure efficient execution of the assessment and conversion jobs and to prevent any memory-related performance issues, configure the memory of the PC2CDIModernizationApp agent application based on the size of the repository and PC XML. The following table provides the memory recommendations for the PC2CDIModernizationApp agent application for different configurations:
Repository Size
PC XML ZIP Size
RAM Size (-Xmx)

1 GB (-Xmx)

Note: The size suggested for the PC XML ZIP file is an approximate value. For example, if you have 20 XML files of 30 MB each, the approximate size of the ZIP file is 600 MB.

Configuring memory for Secure Agent

You can configure the memory for the PC2CDIModernizationApp agent application from the Informatica Administrator service.
    1Access the Administrator service.
    2On the left navigation menu, click Runtime Environments.
    3On the Runtime Environments page, click the name of the Secure Agent that you want to configure.
    4In the upper-right corner, click Edit.
    5In the System Configuration Details area, select the PC2CDIModernizationApp service.
    6In the row that contains the JRE_OPTS property, click the Edit Agent Configuration icon.
    7Enter the new memory value based on the recommendations available in the Sizing recommendations topic.
    8If you want to configure the maximum size of the file chunk to be uploaded to cloud, specify the size in MB in the FILE_CHUNK_SIZE property.
    Default is 30.
    Note: The maximum supported size for file chunk is 30MB. If you specify a value greater than 30, the value in the FILE_CHUNK_SIZE property is set to the default value.
    9If you want to configure the maximum buffer size, specify the size in MB in the UPLOAD_BUFFER_SIZE property.
    Default is 5.
    Note: The maximum supported buffer size for is 5MB. If you specify a value greater than 5, the value in the UPLOAD_BUFFER_SIZE property is set to the default value.
    10Click Save.
    The memory for the PC2CDIModernizationApp agent application is configured.
