Operating System Profiles in Informatica Analyst Overview

You can choose an operating system profile in the Analyst tool. After you choose an operating system profile, the Data Integration Service creates and runs the column profiles, enterprise discovery profiles, and scorecards based on the permission of the operating system profile user.
The Analyst tool uses the default profile to run profiles and scorecards. If you have only one operating system profile, the operating system profile is selected by default. If you have multiple operating system profiles, then you can choose one of the operating system profiles.
