Control-M being used for callinf informatica workflows

krish77 · Post by **krish77** » 29 Mar 2010 11:42

Hi,

I am very new to Control-M. I basically am an informatica developer.
One of my clients wants me to work on Control-M and Unix to schedule the informatica jobs. Can anyone provide an overview of how this is to be done and any sample scripts necessary.

Thanks in advance
Krish

Hello Krish,
I have seen such executions in the past....

You really need to see the Informatica API and understand how you can initiate informatica Workflows from a Command Line perspective and how to understand if the workflow finished OK or NOTOK.

Then you need to put this in a script and call it through Control-M.

Dimitris

Hi Krish,

You can pmcmd command to start informatica jobs.

We use it successfully in this format:
pmcmd startworkflow -s "integration service" -u "user" -p "password" -f "folder" -wait "workflow"
