Restoring Informatica Code from existing repository database.

Assumptions

1.       An existing informatica setup with server existing on Linux Box A (internal i.p: a.b.c.d) and repository metadata existing on Relational Database Service (RDS- A)
2.       Following componenets exist on this environment
a.       Domain-Domain_abc
b.      Node-node_abc
c.       Repository Service-RS-A.
d.      Integration Service-IS-A.
3.       Linux Box A gets corrupted. The OS team provides a fresh Linux Box B with the same internal IP (a.b.c.d)
4.       This document will explain how to recover the Informatica code that was made using repository service-RS-A


Steps to be followed


1.       On Linux Box –B – Re-install informatica Server
·         Keep the repository database same
·         Make new Domain- Domain_def
·         Make new node- node_def


2.       Access the administrator console and login using admin credentials.
3.       Configure the Repository RS_def




   We get the following error


 We now try creating the Repository Service with the same name i.e. RS_abc

 Since the content already exists in the database we select the Content exist option as shown below


Repository Service RS_abc is created and is in disabled mode. 


Enable the repository using the enable button. RS_abc is up and running now.


You may now configure the domain and the repository. When you log into the repository you can see the old code.
