Designing the MDM Hub Installation, 11

MDM Multidomain Edition Installation

MDM Multidomain Edition is a master data management solution that enhances data reliability and data
maintenance procedures. The MDM Multidomain Edition is also referred to as the MDM Hub. You can access
the MDM Hub features through the Hub Console.

The MDM Hub installation consists of the following components:

Hub Store
The Hub Store stores and consolidates business data for the MDM Hub. The Hub Store consists of the
following components:

MDM Hub Master Database. Contains the MDM Hub environment configuration settings, such as user
accounts, security configuration, Operational Reference Store registry, and message queue settings.
The Hub Store consists of one MDM Hub Master Database. You can access and manage Operational
Reference Stores from the MDM Hub Master Database. The default name of the MDM Hub Master
Database is CMX_SYSTEM.
Operational Reference Store. Contains the master data, content metadata, and the rules to process
and manage the master data. You can configure separate Operational Reference Stores for different
geographies, different organizational departments, and for the development and production
environments. You can distribute Operational Reference Stores across multiple server machines. The
default name of an Operational Reference Store is CMX_ORS.

Hub Server

The Hub Server is a J2EE application that you must deploy on an application server. The Hub Server
processes data within the Hub Store and integrates the MDM Hub with external applications. The Hub
Server is the run-time component that manages core and common services for the MDM Hub.

Process Server

The Process Server processes batch jobs such as load, recalculate BVT, and revalidate, and performs
data cleansing and match operations. The Process Server is deployed in an application server
environment. The Process Server interfaces with the cleanse engine that you configure to standardize
and optimize data for match and consolidation.

10
Installation Tasks
You must complete the pre-installation tasks before you install the MDM Hub components. After the
installation, complete the post-installation tasks.

To install the MDM Hub, complete the following tasks:

1. Complete the pre-installation tasks. Complete the pre-installation tasks to ensure that you can
successfully run the installers for the Hub Server and the Process Server and create the Hub Store.
2. Install the MDM Hub components. Use the setup script provided with the MDM Hub distribution to create
the Hub Store. Use the MDM Hub installer to install the Hub Server and the Process Server.
3. Perform the post-installation configuration tasks. Test the database connections. Configure the Hub
Server and the Process Server to ensure that you can use the MDM Hub features.

Designing the MDM Hub Installation

Before you install the MDM Hub, you must decide how to set up the components of the Informatica MDM Hub
implementation. All the components of the MDM Hub implementation must have the same version. If you
have multiple versions of the MDM Hub, install each version in a separate environment.

You can install the MDM Hub in multiple environments, such as development, test, and production. The
requirements and priorities for each type of environment is unique. Therefore, the installation design differs
for each environment.

The following examples show some ways in which the MDM Hub components can be set up in an MDM Hub
implementation:

All components on a single host

You can install all the MDM Hub components on a single host machine. This environment simplifies
communication among the components.

Installation Tasks 11
 The following figure shows all MDM Hub components installed on a single host:

Components distributed on multiple hosts

You can distribute the installation of the MDM Hub components on multiple host machines.

The following figure shows a distributed installation of the MDM Hub components:

Verify License Key

Before you install the software, verify that you have the license key available. You can get the license key in
the following ways:

Installation DVD. If you receive the Informatica installation files in a DVD, the license key file is included in
the Informatica License Key CD.
FTP download. If you download the Informatica installation files from the Informatica Electronic Software
Download (ESD) site, the license key is in an email message from Informatica. Copy the license key file to
a directory accessible to the user account that installs the product.
Contact Informatica Global Customer Support if you do not have a license key.

Verify the Minimum System Requirements

Before you install the MDM Hub, verify that the machine meets the hardware and software requirements.

Verify that the machine meets the following minimum system requirements to install the MDM Hub
components:

13
 RAM
Production environment: 12 GB

Development environment: 2 GB minimum, 4 GB recommended

Disk Space
1 GB

To verify that you have sufficient physical memory available to meet the run-time needs of the MDM Hub
components that you intend to install, use the following formula:
Total MDM Hub components run-time memory requirement = JDK JVM max heap size of the
application server + operating system native heap size

The hardware requirements for an MDM Multidomain Edition implementation are dependent on the data,
processing volumes, and business rules.

For more information about product requirements and supported platforms, see the Product Availability Matrix
on the Informatica My Support Portal:
https://mysupport.informatica.com/community/my-support/product-availability-matrices

Set Environment Variables

Set the environment variables before you install the MDM Hub.

You must set JAVA_HOME and PATH environment variables to point to JDK 1.7.0_45 or later.

Set the Operating System Locale

You must set the same operating system locale for the Hub Server, the Hub Store, and the Hub Console.

Choose one of the following locales for the MDM Hub components:

en_US
fr_FR
de_DE
ja_JP
ko_KR
zh_CN

Set Up the X Window Server

When you run the installer in graphical mode, you must use a graphics display server. On UNIX, the graphics
display server is typically an X Window server. If you do not have the X Window server installed on the
machine where you want to install the product, you can run the installer using an X Window server installed
on another machine. Use the DISPLAY variable to redirect output of the X Window server to another UNIX
machine.

14 Chapter 2: Pre-Installation Tasks

 The following table lists the commands to set the DISPLAY environment variable:

Shell Command Example

C setenv DISPLAY <TCP/IP node of XWindow server>:0 setenv DISPLAY 10.1.50.23:0

Bash/Korn export DISPLAY=<TCP/IP node of XWindow server>:0 export DISPLAY=10.1.50.23:0

Bourne DISPLAY=<TCP/IP node of XWindow server>:0 DISPLAY=10.1.50.23:0

export display export display

If you do not know the IP address of a UNIX machine where the X Window server is installed, ask your
network administrator. For more information about redirecting the DISPLAY variable, see the documentation
from the UNIX vendor.

If the X Window server does not support the font that the installer uses, the installer can display incorrect
labels on the buttons.

Install and Configure Oracle

You must install and configure Oracle before you create the Hub Store. Install Oracle according to
instructions in the Oracle documentation.

Ensure that you install JServer JAVA Virtual Machine and Oracle Database Java Packages during the Oracle
database installation.

You must install the following software on every machine on which you will run the Hub Server or Process
Server:

Oracle client
Oracle Java utilities
SQL*Loader
Before you start Oracle, perform the following configuration tasks:

Disable the Oracle Recycle Bin

Configure the init.ora Parameters

Disable the Oracle Recycle Bin

You must disable the Oracle Recycle Bin because it can interfere with the MDM Hub processes.

The Oracle Recycle Bin is enabled by default. Disable the Oracle Recycle Bins, USER_RECYCLEBIN and
DBA_RECYCLEBIN. You can disable the recycle bins at the system or session level. Also, ensure that you
purge existing objects in the recycle bin.

For more information, see the Oracle documentation.

Configure the init.ora Parameters

You must configure the init.ora parameters for the production environment of the MDM Hub installation.

Install and Configure Oracle 15

 Create an Oracle Database Instance
After you install and configure the Oracle database, create an Oracle database instance.

If the MDM Hub will have multiple Operational Reference Stores distributed across different host servers,
create an Oracle database instance on each server.

Create Tablespaces
You must create the CMX_DATA, CMX_INDX, CMX_TEMP tablespaces for the Hub Store.

The following table describes the Oracle tablespaces for the Hub Store:

Default Tablespace Name Description

CMX_DATA Default tablespace for the Operational Reference Store schema.

Important: Do not change the default tablespace name of CMX_DATA for your
Hub Store.

CMX_INDX Tablespace to contain indexes that the MDM Hub creates and uses.

CMX_TEMP Tablespace to contain temporary tables for Informatica MDM Hub.

You must create enough space for the CMX_TEMP tablespace. When you create the tablespaces, adjust the
default tablespace sizes and number of data files based on the volume of data to be loaded into the MDM
Hub.

Creating Tablespaces
Create tablespaces as permanent tablespaces that are managed locally or configured manually.

1. Log in to Oracle as a database administrator or a user with SYSTEM privileges.

2. Run the command to create a tablespace from SQL*Plus.
The following example shows the command you can use to create the CMX_DATA tablespace:
CREATE BIGFILE TABLESPACE CMX_DATA
NOLOGGING
DATAFILE '<Oracle install directory>/CMX_DATA1.dbf' SIZE 2048M REUSE
EXTENT MANAGEMENT LOCAL;
The default tablespace name is CMX_DATA. Do not use another tablespace name because the Repository
Manager will generate validation errors.
The following example shows the command you can use to create the CMX_INDX tablespace:
CREATE BIGFILE TABLESPACE CMX_INDX
NOLOGGING
DATAFILE '<Oracle install directory>/CMX_INDX1.dbf' SIZE 2048M REUSE EXTENT
MANAGEMENT LOCAL;
The following example shows the command you can use to create the CMX_TEMP tablespace:
CREATE BIGFILE TABLESPACE CMX_TEMP
NOLOGGING
DATAFILE '<Oracle install directory>/CMX_TEMP1.dbf' SIZE 2048M REUSE EXTENT
MANAGEMENT LOCAL;
If you do not use the default tablespace name for CMX_INDX and CMX_TEMP, you must set the
DEFERRED_SEGMENT_CREATION parameter to FALSE to prevent Repository Manager validation errors.

16 Chapter 2: Pre-Installation Tasks

 Configuring the DEFERRED_SEGMENT_CREATION Parameter
If you use a custom tablespace name for CMX_INDX or CMX_TEMP, set the DEFERRED_SEGMENT_CREATION
parameter to FALSE to prevent Repository Manager validation errors.

1. Run the following SQL command:

ALTER SYSTEM SET DEFERRED_SEGMENT_CREATION=FALSE SCOPE=BOTH;
2. Restart the database.

Grant Privileges to DBA User

You can create the MDM Hub Master Database and the Operational Reference Store as a SYS user or as a
DBA user with privileges to grant options. If you use the DBA user, you must grant privileges to the DBA user
with grant options for distributed transactions before you create the MDM Hub Master Database and the
Operational Reference Store.

1. Start SQL*Plus and connect to the database as a user that has privileges to grant options.
2. Use the following statements to grant privileges to the DBA user:
GRANT SELECT ON sys.pending_trans$ TO dbauser with grant option;
GRANT SELECT ON sys.dba_pending_transactions TO dbauser with grant option;
GRANT SELECT ON sys.dba_2pc_pending TO dbauser with grant option;
GRANT EXECUTE ON sys.dbms_xa TO dbauser with grant option;

Add the Oracle TNS Name

The Hub Server and Process Server installer do not add the TNS name into the tnsnames.ora file. You must
add TNS name entries to the tnsnames.ora file on the Hub Server and Process Server machines to connect
to the Oracle database.

u Add the following entry in the tnsnames.ora file:

<TNS NAME> =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(Host = <Oracle server host name>)(Port = <Oracle
server port>))
)
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVICE_NAME = <Oracle SID>)
)
)
Note: Ensure that the TNS names on the Hub Server machine and the Process Server machine are the
same.

Test the Database Connection

Test the connection to the database from each machine on which you want to run a Hub Server or Process
Server.

u Use the following command to test the database connection:

sqlplus <user name>/<password>@<TNS Name>

Install and Configure Oracle 17

Install and Configure Oracle RAC
You can install the Hub Store on Oracle RAC. Before you install the Hub Store on Oracle RAC, you must
complete manual configuration steps to use features and optimize the environment for performance.

For information about installing and configuring Oracle RAC, see the Oracle documentation.

Use Oracle Service Names

You can use Oracle service names instead of Oracle SIDs for Oracle RAC installations. Use Oracle service
names for a more flexible method to specify the connection and to dynamically reallocate database servers.

Use Oracle RAC Load-Balanced Connections

Use Oracle RAC load-balanced connections in a fail-safe environment to ensure that a database connection
is available even when one or more Oracle RAC nodes become unavailable.

You can use Oracle RAC to specify a connection to an Oracle service that is enabled with load balancing and
high availability. Oracle RAC distributes the workload among all available nodes in the cluster. If a node
becomes unavailable, the work fails over to another node.

Most MDM Hub components use load balancing and available nodes. The MDM Hub components that build
their own direct JDBC connection cannot use load balancing. These components do not know the virtual IPs
of the Oracle RAC nodes.

The following table describes the Informatica MDM Hub components that use Oracle RAC load balancing:

Component Description

Batch Jobs Use load balancing when batch jobs are called from a command line because batch
jobs use the tnsnames.ora settings.
Note: Batch jobs cannot use load balancing when called from the Hub Console.

Services Integration Use load-balanced JDBC connections from the application server connection pool.
Framework API
Connections

Process Server Uses load-balanced JDBC connections from the Process Server connection pool.

Repository Manager Uses load-balanced JDBC connections from the application server connection pool
when only DML is required.
Note: Repository Manager cannot use load balancing when DDL is required

MDM_SERVICE.DOMAIN.COM =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST=
(ADDRESS= (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = server1-vip)(PORT = 1521))
(ADDRESS= (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = server2-vip)(PORT = 1521))
(ADDRESS= (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = server3-vip)(PORT = 1521))

18 Chapter 2: Pre-Installation Tasks

 (FAILOVER = on)
(LOAD_BALANCE = on)
)(
CONNECT_DATA=
(SERVICE_NAME = mdm_service.domain.com)
)

The connections to mdm_service.domain.com are load-balanced between the Oracle RAC nodes on server1,
server2, or server3.

Install and Configure WebLogic

Install and configure WebLogic Server according to the instructions in the WebLogic documentation.

Note: Install the application server in the same time zone as the database server.

Before you install the Hub Server and the Process Server on the WebLogic application server, create
WebLogic domains. Use the WebLogic Administration console to create domains for the Hub Server and the
Process Server applications. For more information, see the WebLogic documentation.

Ensure that you perform the following configurations:

If the operating system uses Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6), you must add -
Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true to the script that is in the bin directory of the base domain:
On UNIX. startWebLogic.sh
On Windows. startWebLogic.cmd
Add the following JVM option to the WebLogic startup script to force WebLogic and JGroups to use the
same bind address:
-Djgroups.bind_addr=<bind_addr>
where, <bind_addr> specifies the interface on which to receive and send messages.
Add the following JVM option to JAVA_OPTIONS in the WebLogic startup script to set the
oracle.jdbc.J2EE13Compliant system variable:
-Doracle.jdbc.J2EE13Compliant=true
Set the maximum JVM heap size (-Xmx) to 4 GB or higher in the WebLogic startup script. Change the
following settings:
set JAVA_OPTS=%JAVA_OPTS% -server -Xmx4096m -XX:PermSize=256m -XX:MaxPermSize=1024m
The -Xmx parameter must be three to four times the size of XX:MaxPermSize and -XX:PermSize must
be one third or one fourth the size of -XX:MaxPermSize.

Installing the Hub Server in Console Mode 37

Installing the Hub Server in Silent Mode
You can install the Hub Server without user interaction in silent mode. You might want to perform a silent
installation if you need multiple installations, or if you need to install on a machine cluster. A silent installation
does not show any progress or failure messages.

Before you run the silent installation for the Hub Server, you must configure the properties file for the silent
installation. The installer reads the file to determine the installation options. The silent installation process
might complete successfully even if you provide incorrect settings, such as an incorrect application server
path or port. You must ensure that you provide correct settings in the properties file.

Copy the Hub Server installation files to the hard disk on the machine where you plan to install the Hub
Server. To install in silent mode, complete the following tasks:

1. Configure the installation properties file and specify the installation options in the properties file.
2. Run the installer with the installation properties file.

Configuring the Properties File

Informatica provides a sample properties file that includes the parameters that the installer requires. You can
customize the sample properties file to specify the options for the installation. Then run the silent installation.

The silent installer does not validate the settings in the properties files. You must ensure that you specify
correct settings and verify them before you run the silent installer.

1. Find the silentInstallServer_sample.properties file in the following directory:

On UNIX. /silent_install/mrmserver
On Windows. \silent_install\mrmserver
After you customize the file, re-save it. You can rename the file and put it anywhere on the machine.
Note: In the silent properties file, slash and backslash are special characters. You must enter two of
each of these characters when you enter information in the file, such as when you enter an installation
path. For example, to enter the path to the server directory, you must enter \\u1\\infamdm\\hub\
\server.
2. Create a backup copy of the silentInstallServer_sample.properties file.
3. Use a text editor to open the file and change the values of the installation parameters.
4. Save the properties file with a new name such as silentInstallServer.properties.
The following table describes the installation parameters that you can modify:

Property Name Description

INSTALLER_UI Specifies the type of installation. Set to silent.

The silent installer runs in the background. The process can take a while. If you ran the postInstallSetup
script for the Hub Server as part of the silent installation, check the postinstallSetup.log files to verify that
the installation was successful.
The log file is available in the following directory:
On UNIX. <infamdm_install_directory>/hub/server/logs/
On Windows. <infamdm_install_directory>\hub\server\logs\

Installing and Deploying the Hub Server on Nodes in

the Cluster
If you have a clustered environment, install the Hub Server on the Admin Server and on all nodes of the
cluster to which you must deploy the Hub Server application.

40 Chapter 5: Hub Server Installation

If the cluster has two Managed Servers that run on host1 and host2, and use RMI ports 8001 and 8002, then
the properties in cmxserver.properties can have the following values:

cmx.appserver.hostname=host1,host2
cmx.appserver.rmi.port=8001,8002
Where, the host name and port number of the first server are host1 and 8001, the host name and port
number of the second server are host2 and 8002.

Note: Separate the port numbers by a comma with no space between them. The order of host names and
port numbers must be the same.

You can install and deploy the Hub Server after you start the cluster.

1. Start the Hub Server installer on all nodes of the cluster.

Run the following command to start the Hub Server installer:
On UNIX. ./hub_install.bin -DSIPERIAN_INSTALL_PREREQ_VALIDATION=false
On Windows. hub_install.exe -DSIPERIAN_INSTALL_PREREQ_VALIDATION=false
2. Click No when the installer prompts you to run the postInstallSetup script to deploy the application.
3. When the installer prompts for the WebLogic listener port, enter the managed server ports for any node
in the cluster if the cluster is set up with the development cluster IP address.
Use the DNS name and the cluster port if you use the production cluster IP address.
4. After the installation, open the cmxserver.properties file on all nodes in the cluster. The
cmxserver.properties file is in the following directory:
On UNIX. <infamdm_install_directory>/hub/server/resources
On Windows. <infamdm_install_directory>\hub\server\resources
5. Change the following properties in the cmxserver.properties file on all nodes in the cluster:

Property Description

cmx.appserver.hostname Specify machine names of the cluster servers.

cmx.appserver.rmi.port Specify RMI port numbers.

Configure the Hub Server

After you install the Hub Server, you need to configure it. You can configure logging settings, and change
application server and Hub Server settings.

Deploying the Hub Server EAR File

You must deploy the Hub Server EAR file on the same machine on which you install the Hub Server.

The Hub Server application must be able to find the Hub Server installation from which you deploy it.
Therefore, do not transfer the EAR file for deployment on another machine. For example, if you install the
Hub Server on a test machine and then deploy the EAR file on the production machine, the application on
production machine cannot find the installation for configuration information such as logging.

Configuring the Logging Settings

You can configure the Hub Server for logging. Specify the configuration settings for logging in the log4j.xml
file.

1. Open log4j.xml in the following directory:

On UNIX. <infamdm_install_directory>/hub/server/conf
On Windows. <infamdm_install_directory>\hub\server\conf
2. Set the value for the following category names:
com.siperian
com.delos
com.informatica
Set the value of category names to DEBUG for the most detailed logging, INFO for less detailed logging,
and ERROR for the least detailed logging. The default is INFO.
3. Set the value for the Threshold parameters to DEBUG.
4. Save and close the log4j.xml file.

Setting the Configuration Properties

You can configure the Hub Server properties in the cmxserver.properties file.

Configure the Hub Server 47

 1. Open cmxserver.properties in the following directory:
On UNIX. <infamdm_install_directory>/hub/server/resources
On Windows. <infamdm_install_directory>\hub\server\resources
2. Set the Hub Server properties.
The following text shows a sample configuration of the cmxserver.properties file:
cmx.home=C:\infamdm\hub\server
cmx.server.masterdatabase.type=oracle
cmx.appserver.type=weblogic
cmx.appserver.rmi.port=7001
cmx.appserver.naming.protocol=t3
cmx.appserver.soap.connector.port=
jnlp.initial-heap-size=128m
jnlp.max-heap-size=512m
cmx.server.datalayer.cleanse.execution=SERVER
cmx.server.datalayer.cleanse.working_files.location=C:\infamdm\hub\server\logs
cmx.server.datalayer.cleanse.working_files=LOCAL
3. Restart the Hub Server application to reload the settings in the cmxserver.properties file.

Changing the WebLogic Server Settings

If you want to change any of the WebLogic Server settings that you specify during the installation process,
change them after the installation.

1. Open build.properties in the following directory:

On UNIX. <infamdm_install_directory>/hub/server/bin
On Windows. <infamdm_install_directory>\hub\server\bin
2. Change the WebLogic Server configuration settings.
3. Save and close the build.properties file.
4. Run the postInstallSetup script.
5. Restart the WebLogic Server application server.

Running the Post Install Script Manually

If you skipped the post install script during installation, you must run the post install script manually.

1. Open a command prompt.

2. Navigate to the PostInstallSetup script in the following directory:
On UNIX. <infamdm installation directory>/hub/server
On Windows. <infamdm installation directory>\hub\server

48 Chapter 6: Hub Server Post-Installation Tasks

 3. Run the following command:
On UNIX. ./postInstallSetup.sh -Dweblogic.password=<Weblogic_Password> -
Ddatabase.password=<DB_Password>
Note: If you include the exclamation mark (!) in your password, you must include a backslash before the
exclamation mark. For example, if your password is !!cmx!!, enter the password as follows: \!\!cmx\!\!
On Windows. postInstallSetup.bat -Dweblogic.password=<Weblogic_Password> -
Ddatabase.password=<DB_Password>

Manually Redeploying the Hub Server Application

You can use the postInstallSetup script to deploy or redeploy the Hub Server application to WebLogic Server.
However, you can also use the default application server tool to deploy the Hub Server application.

Ensure that you deploy the Hub Server application from the Hub Server installation directory.

1. Use the WebLogic Server Administration Console to undeploy the siperian-mrm.ear file.
2. Use the WebLogic Server Administration Console to deploy the siperian-mrm.ear file.

Restart WebLogic
The installation process enables the AnonymousAdminLookupEnabled method of the WebLogic Server. The
AnonymousAdminLookupEnabled method must be enabled for the registration of the Operational Reference
Store. If you do not restart WebLogic Server after you install the Hub Server, the Operational Reference
Store fails.

Configure JBoss Cache

You can configure JBoss Cache to handle caching requirements. Modify the JBoss cache properties for
tuning performance.

Change the jbossCacheConfig.xml file in the following location to configure JBoss Cache:

On UNIX. <infamdm_install_dir>/hub/server/resources/jbossCacheConfig.xml

On Windows. <infamdm_install_dir>\hub\server\resources\jbossCacheConfig.xml

Installing the Process Server in Silent Mode

You can install the Process Server without user interaction in silent mode. You might want to perform a silent
installation if you need multiple installations, or if you need to install on a machine cluster. A silent installation
does not show any progress or failure messages.

Before you run the silent installation for the Process Server, you must configure the properties file for the
silent installation. The installer reads the file to determine the installation options. The silent installation
process might complete successfully even if you provide incorrect settings, such as an incorrect application
server path or port setting. You must ensure that you provide correct settings in the properties file.

58 Chapter 7: Process Server Installation

 Copy the Process Server installation files to the hard disk on the machine where you plan to install the
Process Server. To install in silent mode, complete the following tasks:

1. Configure the installation properties file and specify the installation options in the properties file.
2. Run the installer with the installation properties file.

Configuring the Properties File

Informatica provides a sample properties file that includes the parameters that the installer requires. You can
customize the sample properties file to specify the options for the installation. Then run the silent installation.

The silent installer does not validate the settings in the properties files. You must ensure that you specify
correct settings and verify them before you run the silent installer.

1. Locate the sample silentInstallCleanse_sample.properties file in the distribution directory.

The file is in the distribution directory in the following directory:
On UNIX. /silent_install/mrmcleanse
On Windows. \silent_install\mrmcleanse
Note: In the silent properties file, slash and backslash are special characters. You must enter two of
each when you enter information in the file, such as when you enter an installation path. For example, to
enter the path to the Process Server directory, you must enter \\u1\\infamdm\\hub\\cleanse.
2. Create a backup copy of silentInstallCleanse_sample.properties.
3. Use a text editor to open the file and change the values of the installation parameters.
4. Save the properties file with a name such as silentInstallCleanse.properties.

On Windows. postInstallSetup.bat -Dweblogic.password=<weblogic Password> -
Ddatabase.password=<Database Password>

Manually Redeploying the Process Server EAR File

You can manually redeploy the Process Server on the WebLogic application server.

1. Use the WebLogic Server Administration Console to undeploy the siperian-mrm-cleanse.ear file.
2. Use the WebLogic Server Administration Console to deploy the siperian-mrm-cleanse.ear file.
Ensure that you deploy the Process Server EAR file from the Process Server installation directory.

Configure Process Server for Multithreading

By default, cleanse operations runs in single-threaded mode and batch jobs run in multi-threaded mode. If
the server on which you install the Process Server has more than one CPU, then you can configure the
cleanse operations to be multithreaded to increase performance. The batch operations are multi-threaded by
default, but you can configure the number of threads to use.

68 Chapter 8: Process Server Post-Installation Tasks

 You can use the Hub Console to configure the Process Server for multithreading. You need to set the threads
to use for cleanse operations and batch processes. Consider the following factors when you set the thread
count property:

Number of processor cores available on the machine

Set the number of threads to the number of processor cores available on the machine for cleanse
operations. For example, set the number of threads for a dual-core machine to two threads, and set the
number of threads for a single quad-core to four threads.

Set the number of threads to four times the number of processor cores available on the machine for
batch operations. For example, set the number of threads for a dual-core machine to eight threads, and
set the number of threads for a single quad-core to 16 threads.

Remote database connection

If you use a remote database, set the threads for cleanse operations to a number that is slightly higher
than the number of processor cores, so that the wait of one thread is used by another thread. Setting the
number of threads slightly higher accounts for latency that might occur with a remote database.

Process memory requirements

If you run a memory-intensive process, restrict the total memory allocated to all cleanse operation
threads that run under the JVM to 1 GB.

Note: After migration to a later MDM Hub version, you must change the thread count or default values
are used.

Configuring the Process Server for Multithreading

Use the Hub Console to configure the Process Server for multithreading.

1. Expand the Utilities workbench in the Hub Console, and then click Process Server.
The Process Server tool displays the configured Process Servers.
2. Click Write Lock > Acquire Lock.
3. Select the Process Server for which you must configure multithreading.
4. Click Edit Process Server.

9. Click OK and then Save.

Configure Match Population

The match population contains the standard population set to use for the match process. Each supported
country, language, or population has a standard population set. You must enable the match population to use
for the match rules.

The match population is available as a population.ysp file with the Informatica MDM Hub installation. The
population name is the same as the ysp file name. If you add a Japanese population, and want to use the
Person_Name_Kanji match field, add _Kanji to the population name. For example, Japan_Kanji or
Japan_i_Kanji. If you do this, the standard Person_Name match field is not available.

The population that you use must be compatible with the SSA-Name3 version of the MDM Hub. If you need
additional population files or if you need an updated population file to upgrade to a later version, log a service
request at the Informatica MySupport Portal at http://mysupport.informatica.com. The first population file that
you request with the product is free. You might need population files for other countries or you might need an
updated population file to upgrade to a later version of the MDM Hub.

Enabling Match Population

You must enable the match population to use for the match rules.

1. Copy the <population>.ysp files to the following location:

The seed database for the MDM Hub installation has some populations registered in the
C_REPOS_SSA_POPULATION table, but not enabled.

72 Chapter 8: Process Server Post-Installation Tasks

3. If the C_REPOS_SSA_POPULATION table does not contain the population, add it to the table and
enable it.
The population name is the same as the ysp file name. For example, if the ysp file name is US.ysp, the
population name is US.
To add the population to an Operational Reference Store, use the following steps:
a. Connect to the Operational Reference Store schema that you want to add the population to.
b. In SQL*Plus, run the add_std_ssa_population.sql script in the following directory:
On UNIX. <infamdm_install_directory>/server/resources/database/custom_scripts/oracle
On Windows. <infamdm_install_directory>\server\resources\database\custom_scripts

Troubleshooting the Installation Process

If the installation fails, use the following information to troubleshoot the failure.

Inaccurate start or stop timestamp for Operational Reference Store

When you export an Operational Reference Store that you create, the MDM Hub creates a .dmp file. You can
reuse the .dmp file of the Operational Reference Store to create a second Operational Reference Store. The
start date and end date columns in the C_REPOS_DB_VERSION table of the Operational Reference Store
will contain incorrect start date and end date. You can ignore this error as it does not affect any functionality.

The Hub Server cannot connect to the cmx_system schema

To verify that the Hub Server cannot connect to the cmx_system schema, review the application server log.
For example, the following error might appear in Websphere log SystemOut.log:
Caused by: java.sql.SQLException: ORA-28000: the account is locked
DSRA0010E: SQL State = 99999, Error Code = 28,000

To resolve the issue, resolve the database connection issue. Use the application server console to test the
connection to the database. If you cannot resolve the connection to the cmx_system schema, re-create the
cmx_system schema.

Failed to verify the need to tokenize records

When you run the Match process, you might receive the following error:
SIP-16062: Failed to verify the need to tokenize records.

Verify the following environment variable settings:

The library path environment variable must contain the following path:
On UNIX. <infamdm_install_directory>/hub/cleanse/lib
On Windows. <infamdm_install_directory>\hub\cleanse\lib
The library path environment variable depends on the operating system:
- AIX. LIBPATH

- HP-UX. SHLIB_PATH

74
 - Solaris, Suse, or RedHat. LD_LIBRARY_PATH

- Windows. PATH
The SSAPR environment variable must include the following path for all users:
On UNIX. <infamdm_install_directory>/server_install_dir>/cleanse/resources
On Windows. <infamdm_install_directory>\server_install_dir>\cleanse\resources

major.minor version errors when loading the Process Server

If you see multiple major.minor console errors when you try to load the Process Server, check that the
system has the correct Java version installed.

Hub Server cache timeout exception

If the Hub server cannot acquire a cache object lock, you must change the jbossCacheConfig.xml file to
increase the lock acquisition and replication timeouts. The jbossCacheConfig.xml file is in the following
location:

On UNIX. <infamdm_install_dir>/server/resources/jbossCacheConfig.xml.

On Windows. <infamdm_install_dir>\server\resources\jbossCacheConfig.xml.

For example, increase lock acquisition timeout and replication timeout as shown in the following sample:
<locking
...
lockAcquisitionTimeout="30000"
...
/>
<sync replTimeout="30000"/>

Address Doctor exception during certification

Address Doctor generates an exception during certification. Ensure that the stack size for the JVM is
sufficient.

1. Navigate to the WebLogic home directory.

2. Open the following file in a text editor.
On UNIX. setDomainEnv.sh
On Windows. startWeblogic.cmd
3. Use the following command to set the MEM_ARGS variable:
On UNIX.
set MEM_ARGS=${MEM_ARGS} -Xss2000k
On Windows.
set MEM_ARGS=%MEM_ARGS% -Xss2000k
4. Save and close the file.
