Installation Overview
This chapter includes the following topics:

• MDM Multidomain Edition Installation, 13

• Installation Tasks, 15
• Designing the MDM Hub Installation, 15

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 or more MDM Hub Master Databases. You can access and manage
an Operational Reference Store from an MDM Hub Master Database. The default name of an 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 Store databases for
different geographies, different organizational departments, and for the development and production
environments. You can distribute Operational Reference Store databases 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 re-validate, and performs
data cleansing and match operations. The Process Server is deployed in an application server

13
 environment. The Process Server interfaces with the cleanse engine that you configure to standardize
and optimize data for match and consolidation.

Resource Kit
The Resource Kit is a set of samples, applications, and utilities to integrate the MDM Hub into your
applications and workflows. You can select the Resource Kit components that you want to install.

Informatica Data Director

Informatica Data Director (IDD) is a data governance tool. Use Informatica Data Director to access the
master data that is stored in an Informatica MDM Hub Store. Master data is organized by business
entities. Business entities can be any type of top-level data that has significance for an organization,
such as customers, suppliers, employees, or accounts. The master data represents the best version of
the truth that the organization can achieve about the business entities

Provisioning Tool
You can use the Provisioning tool to create business entity models and configure the Entity 360
framework for Informatica Data Director. To create a business entity model, you create a root node and
then establish relationships between nodes. These relationships are based on foreign key constraints
that you define using the Hub Console. After you build the business entity model and configure the
nodes, you can publish the configuration to the MDM Hub.

Informatica Platform
Comprises the Informatica services and Informatica clients that you use to perform Informatica platform
staging. The Informatica services consist of services to support the domain and application services to
perform tasks and manage databases. The Informatica domain is the administrative unit for the
Informatica environment. You use the clients to access the services in the domain. When you install the
Informatica platform as part of the MDM Hub installation, you install the Data Integration Service, Model
Repository Service, and Informatica Developer (the Developer tool).

Dynamic Data Masking

Dynamic Data Masking is a data security product that operates between the MDM Hub and a database
to prevent unauthorized access to sensitive information. Dynamic Data Masking intercepts requests sent
to the database and applies data masking rules to the request to mask the data before it is sent back to
the MDM Hub.

Informatica ActiveVOS
Informatica ActiveVOS is a business process management (BPM) tool. BPM tools support automated
business processes, including change-approval processes for data. When you combine Informatica
ActiveVOS with the MDM Hub and Informatica Data Director, you ensure that changes to master data
undergo a review-and-approval process before the data is included in the best version of the truth (BVT)
records. When you install ActiveVOS Server as part of the Hub Server installation, you install the
ActiveVOS Server, ActiveVOS Console, and Process Central. You also install predefined MDM
workflows, tasks, and roles.

14 Chapter 1: Installation Overview

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. Create the following Hub Store components:
• MDM Hub Master Database. You must create the MDM Hub Master Database before you install the
Hub Server and the Process Server.
• Operational Reference Store. You can create Operational Reference Stores at any time after you
complete the pre-installation tasks.
Use the setup script provided with the MDM Hub distribution to create the components of the Hub Store.
3. Install the Hub Server. Use the MDM Hub installer to install the Hub Server.
4. Install the Process Server. Use the MDM Hub installer to install the Process Server.
5. Perform the post-installation configuration tasks. Test the database connections. To ensure that you can
use the MDM Hub features, configure the Hub Server and the Process Server.

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 15
 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:

Extract the Installer Files

The installer files are compressed and distributed.

You need to extract the installer files. Verify that the utility that you use for extraction also extracts empty
folders.

17
 Download and extract the following installation files from the Informatica Electronic Software Download site to
a directory on your machine:

• Download and extract the MDM Hub installer for your operating system.
• Download and extract the database files.
• If you intend to install the licensed version of ActiveVOS Server, download and extract the ActiveVOS
Server installer for your operating system.
• If you intend to install Informatica platform, download the Informatica platform server installation files for
your operating system.
• If you intend to install Informatica platform, download the Informatica platform client installation files.

Verify License Key

Before you install the software, verify that you have the license key. 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:

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

18 Chapter 2: Pre-Installation Tasks

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.

If you want to install Informatica platform on AIX or HP-UX, set the INFA_JDK_HOME environment variable
to point to the JDK directory.

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
• ES
• pt_BR

Set Up the X Window Server

To run the installer in graphical mode, use a graphics display server. If you are logged in remotely to a UNIX
machine, you can use an X Window server to redirect the graphics display to your local host.

If you do not have a display device installed on the machine where you want to install the product, you can
run the installer by using an X Window server installed on another machine. Use the DISPLAY variable to
redirect output of the X Window to another machine that has X Window and xterm installed.

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

Shell Command

C setenv DISPLAY <host name>:0

Bash/Korn export DISPLAY=<host name>:0

Bourne DISPLAY=<host name>:0

export display

If you do not know the host name of the machine that has the X Window server that you want to use, ask
your network administrator. You can also use the IP address of the machine. For more information about
redirecting the DISPLAY variable, see the documentation from the UNIX or X Window vendor.

Set Environment Variables 19

 If the X Window server does not support the font that the installer uses, the installer displays the labels on the
buttons incorrectly.

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.

Note: You cannot use a multitenant container database for the MDM Hub. If you use Oracle 12c, ensure that
the Oracle Database setting OPTIMIZER_ADAPTIVE_FEATURES is set to FALSE.

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.

Set the NLS_LANG Environment Variable

Set the NLS_LANG environment variable for the environment in which the client applications, such as the
Oracle loader, the Hub Server, and the Process Server, run. The NLS_LANG environment variable specifies
the correct locale behavior for Oracle. NLS_LANG sets the language, territory, and character set that the
client applications use.

Specify the NLS_LANG parameter in the following format:

NLS_LANG = language_territory.charset

For example, in a Linux environment that uses French, the NLS_LANG parameter is NLS_LANG =
French_France.UTF8. The language is French, the territory is France, and the character set is UTF8. For
more information about NLS_LANG settings, see the Oracle documentation.

Note: If you want to store and search for records that contain Chinese, Japanese, or Korean characters,
ensure that you set the character set to UTF-8.

20 Chapter 2: Pre-Installation Tasks

 Specifying the NLS_LANG Value On UNIX
You can specify the value of NLS_LANG on a UNIX C shell session.

1. On the UNIX terminal, change to the C shell.

2. To specify the value of NLS_LANG, enter the following command:
% export NLS_LANG <language>_<territory>.<charset>

Specifying the NLS_LANG Value On Windows

You can specify the value of NLS_LANG on the Windows environment.

1. Navigate to Control Panel > System > Advanced system settings.

2. In the System Properties dialog box, click the Advanced tab.
3. Click Environment Variables.
The Environment Variables dialog box appears.
4. Click New.
The New System Variable dialog box appears.
5. In the Variable Name field, enter NLS_LANG.
6. In the Variable Value field, enter the NLS_LANG value.
The format for the NLS_LANG value is <language>_<territory>.<charset>.

Configure the init.ora Parameters

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

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.

Install and Configure Oracle 21

 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.

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;

22 Chapter 2: Pre-Installation Tasks

 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 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.

Install and Configure Oracle RAC 23

 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
because DDL uses a direct JDBC connection.

Configure the tnsnames.ora File

You must configure all the Oracle RAC nodes of the database cluster in the tnsnames.ora file.

The following tnsnames.ora entry example shows you how to specify multiple Oracle RAC nodes for an
Oracle service called mdm_service.domain.com:
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))
(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.

24 Chapter 2: Pre-Installation Tasks

 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
• In a multi-node or clustered environment, add the following JVM option to the WebLogic startup script:
-Djgroups.bind_addr=<bind_addr>
where, <bind_addr> specifies the interface on which to receive and send messages.
You must ensure that each node in the multi-node or clustered environment binds to its own network
interface.
• To enhance the performance of the MDM Hub environment, add the following JVM option for JIT code
cache size to JAVA_OPTIONS in the WebLogic startup script:
-XX:ReservedCodeCacheSize=256m
• 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_OPTIONS=%JAVA_OPTIONS% -server -Xms2048m -Xmx4096m -Xss2000k -
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.
• Set the WLS_MEM_ARGS_64BIT memory variable to appropriate values in the following file:
On UNIX. <Domain Home Directory>/bin/setDomainEnv.sh
On Windows. <Domain Home Directory>\bin\setDomainEnv.cmd
For example:
WLS_MEM_ARGS_64BIT="-Xms256m -Xmx1024m -XX:PermSize512m"
• If you want to install Informatica platform, add the following option to JAVA_OPTIONS in the WebLogic
startup script:
-DUseSunHttpHandler=true
You set the option to true so that WebLogic uses the Sun HTTP Handler for the HTTP connection
between the MDM Hub and the Informatica platform.
• Add the following option to JAVA_OPTIONS in the WebLogic startup script to set the log4j.xml file
configuration path:
-DFrameworksLogConfigurationPath="<Path to the log4j.xml file>"

Configure WebLogic for Multiple MDM Hub Master Databases

If you want to configure more than one MDM Hub Master Database, you have to install an MDM Hub instance
for each MDM Hub Master Database. You must deploy each MDM Hub instance on a separate WebLogic
domain. Create as many WebLogic domains as the number of MDM Hub Master Databases and the MDM
Hub instances that you want to install.

Configure WebLogic for Informatica Data Director

If you use Informatica Data Director, configure WebLogic and then restart the application server for the
changes to take effect.

Ensure that you perform the following configurations:

• To save records that contain UTF-8 characters, add the following JVM option to the WebLogic startup
script.
-Dfile.encoding=UTF-8

Install and Configure External Cleanse Engines

If you intend to use a cleanse engine, such as Address Doctor, to use with the Process Server, install and
configure the cleanse engine.

For instructions on how to configure the MDM Hub to integrate with the cleanse engine, see the Informatica
MDM Multidomain Edition Cleanse Adapter Guide.

Determine the Timeline Granularity

Before you install the MDM Hub components, determine the timeline granularity. Timeline granularity is the
time measurement that you want to use to define effective periods for versions of records. For example, you
can choose the effective periods to be in years, months, or seconds.

You can configure the timeline granularity of year, month, day, hour, minute, or seconds to specify effective
periods of data in the MDM Hub implementation. You can configure the timeline granularity that you need
when you create or update an Operational Reference Store.

Important: The timeline granularity that you configure cannot be changed.

When you specify an effective period in any timeline granularity, the system uses the database time locale for
the effective periods. To create a version that is effective for one timeline measurement unit, the start date
and the end date must be the same.

30 Chapter 2: Pre-Installation Tasks

The following table lists the timeline granularity that you can configure and the formats:

Timeline Granularity Timeline Format

Year yyyy

Month mm/yyyy

Day dd/mm/yyyy

Hour dd/mm/yyyy hh

Minute dd/mm/yyyy hh:mm

Second dd/mm/yyyy hh:mm:ss

Use one of the following timeline granularity options:

Year
When the timeline granularity is year, you can specify the effective period in the year format, such as
2010. An effective start date of a record starts at the beginning of the year and the effective end date
ends at the end of the year. For example, if the effective start date is 2013 and the effective end date is
2014, then the record would be effective from 01/01/2013 to 31/12/2014.

Month
When the timeline granularity is month, you can specify the effective period in the month format, such as
01/2013. An effective start date of a record starts on the first day of a month. The effective end date of a
record ends on the last day of a month. For example, if the effective start date is 02/2013 and the
effective end date is 04/2013, the record is effective from 01/02/2013 to 30/04/2013.

Day
When the timeline granularity is day, you can specify the effective period in the date format, such as
13/01/2013. An effective start date of a record starts at the beginning of a day, that is 12:00. The
effective end date of the record ends at the end of a day, which is 23:59. For example, if the effective
start date is 13/01/2013 and the effective end date is 15/04/2013, the record is effective from 12:00 on
13/01/2013 to 23:59 on 15/04/2013.

Hour
When the timeline granularity is hour, the effective period includes the year, month, day and hour, such
as 13/01/2013 15. An effective start date of a record starts at the beginning of an hour of a day. The
effective end date of the record ends at the end of the hour that you specify. For example, if the effective
start date is 13/01/2013 15 and the effective end date is 15/04/2013 10, the record is effective from
15:00 on 13/01/2013 to 10:59 on 15/04/2013.

Minute
When the timeline granularity is minute, the effective period includes the year, month, day, hour, and
minute, such as 13/01/2013 15:30. An effective start date of a record starts at the beginning of a minute.
The effective end date of the record ends at the end of the minute that you specify. For example, if the
effective start date is 13/01/2013 15:30 and the effective end date is 15/04/2013 10:45, the record is
effective from 15:30:00 on 13/01/2013 to 10:45:59 on 15/04/2013.

Second
When the timeline granularity is second, the effective period includes the year, month, day, hour, minute,
and second, such as 13/01/2013 15:30:45. An effective start date of a record starts at the beginning of a
second. The effective end date ends at the end of the second that you specify. For example, if the

 effective start date is 13/01/2013 15:30:55 and the effective end date is 15/04/2013 10:45:15, the record
is effective from 15:30:55:00 on 13/01/2013 to 10:45:15:00 on 15/04/2013.

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.

Installing the Hub Server in Silent Mode 63

 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.

Verify the Version and Build Number 75

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.

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.

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.

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

76 Chapter 7: Hub Server Post-Installation Tasks

 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.

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.

Configure the Hub Server on Environments with

Managed Servers
After you install the Hub Server on environments with Managed Servers, configure the Hub Server.

For example, if the WebLogic environment has two Managed Servers that run on host1 and host2, and use
RMI ports 8001 and 8002, configure the host name and port numbers in the cmxserver.properties file of
the Manages Servers. Repackage the Hub Server EAR file and deploy it on the WebLogic application server.

Configuring the Hub Server Properties

After you install the Hub Server in a WebLogic cluster, configure the Hub Server properties on the
Administration Server and on each Managed Server.

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

1. Stop the WebLogic application server on the Administration Server and all the Managed Servers of the
cluster.

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.

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.

Deploying the Process Server Application on a WebLogic Cluster

After you install and configure the Process Server, deploy the Process Server application to the
Administration Server.

Perform the following tasks to deploy the Process Server application:

1. Run the PostInstallSetup script.

2. Specify the targets for deployments.
3. Restart WebLogic Server.

Configure the Process Server on Environments with Managed Servers 109

 Step 1. Run the PostInstallSetup Script
To deploy the Process Server application, run the PostInstallSetup script on the WebLogic Administration
Server.

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

1. Start the WebLogic Administration Server and the Managed Servers on all the machines that are part of
the WebLogic cluster.
2. If the Administation Server and the Managed Servers are on different machines, copy the siperian-
mrm-cleanse.ear file to the installation directory of the Administration Server.

The siperian-mrm-cleanse.ear file is in the following directory:

On UNIX. <infamdm install directory>/hub/server
On Windows. <infamdm install directory>\hub\server
3. Open a command prompt, and navigate to the PostInstallSetup script in the following directory:
On UNIX. <infamdm installation directory>/hub/cleanse
On Windows. <infamdm installation directory>\hub\cleanse
4. Run the following command:
On UNIX. ./postInstallSetup.sh -Dweblogic.password=<weblogic Password> -
Ddatabase.password=<Database Password>
On Windows. postInstallSetup.bat -Dweblogic.password=<weblogic Password> -
Ddatabase.password=<Database Password>
5. Stop the WebLogic Administration Server and the Managed Servers on all the machines that are part of
the WebLogic cluster.
6. Start the WebLogic Administration Server and the Managed Servers on all the machines that are part of
the WebLogic cluster.
For more information, see the WebLogic documentation.

Step 2. Specify the Targets for Deployments

After you run the PostInstallSetup script, specify the Managed Servers to which you want to deploy the
Process Server application.

1. Start the WebLogic Server Administration Console.

2. Specify all the Managed Servers as targets for the siperian-mrm-cleanse.ear deployment.
3. Specify all the Managed Servers as targets for the following data sources:
• MDM Hub Master Database data source
• Operational Reference Store datasource

Step 3. Restart WebLogic Server

After you specify the target Managed Servers for the Process Server deployment file, restart the WebLogic
Administration Server and all the Managed Servers.

1. Run the following command to start the Administration Server:

On UNIX. ./startWebLogic.sh
On Windows. startWebLogic.cmd
2. Run the following command to start each Managed Server:

110 Chapter 9: Process Server Post-Installation Tasks

 On UNIX.
./startManagedWebLogic.sh <machine name> http://<host of the admin server>:<port of
the admin server>
On Windows.
startManagedWebLogic.cmd <machine name> http://<host of the admin server>:<port of
the admin server>

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.

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.
The Process Server tool displays the Add/Edit Process Server dialog box.

Configure Process Server for Multithreading 111

 5. Set the Threads for Cleanse Operations property.
The default value is 1. You can change the threads for cleanse operations without restarting the Process
Server.
6. Set the Threads for Batch Processing.
The default value is 20.
7. Click OK and then click Save.

Configuring Multiple Process Servers for Cleanse

and Match Operations
You can configure multiple Process Servers for each Operational Reference Store database. You can
configure multiple Process Servers to run on a single machine or on multiple machines.

Ensure that you configure each Process Server to run on a separate application server.

1. Install and configure an instance of the Process Server.

2. Configure multiple application servers.
3. Install and configure the Process Server on each application server.
4. Set the distributed cleanse and match properties in the cmxcleanse.properties file.
The following table describes the distributed cleanse and match properties:

Property Description

cmx.server.match.distributed_match Specifies whether a Process Server is enabled for

distributed cleanse and match. Set to 1 to enable distributed
cleanse and match.

cmx.server.cleanse.min_size_for_distribution Specifies the minimum size for distribution. The MDM Hub

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:

On UNIX. <infamdm_install_directory>/hub/cleanse/resources/match
On Windows. <infamdm_install_directory>\hub\cleanse\resources\match
2. In the C_REPOS_SSA_POPULATION metadata table, verify that the population is registered.
The seed database for the MDM Hub installation has some populations registered in the
C_REPOS_SSA_POPULATION table, but not enabled.
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.

114 Chapter 9: Process Server Post-Installation Tasks

 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
\oracle
c. Answer the prompts described in the following table:

Prompt Description

ActiveVOS Web Applications

When you install the bundled, licensed version of the ActiveVOS Server, you are also licensed to use two
ActiveVOS web applications. After you add users to the application server container, you can use these
applications.

You use the web applications for different purposes:

ActiveVOS Console
Administrators use the ActiveVOS Console to manage deployed processes, the alerting system, and
endpoint locations. You can also configure the engine for performance monitoring and management.

ActiveVOS Central
Business users can use ActiveVOS Central to manage tasks, requests, and reports. However, in
general, business users use an Informatica Data Director (IDD) application to manage tasks because
they can open the entities to review from the Task Manager.

To use ActiveVOS Central, you must add the MDM Hub users to the application server container.

For more information about the web applications, see the Informatica ActiveVOS documentation.

120
Configuring the ActiveVOS URNs for the Business
Entity Workflow Adapter
The ActiveVOS Server has two predefined uniform resource names (URNs) that it uses internally. You need
to update the URL in the URN mappings to use the host name and the port number where the ActiveVOS
Server runs.

1. Launch the ActiveVOS Console. In a browser, type the following URL, substituting the correct host name
and port number:
Encrypted connections.https://[host]:[port]/activevos
Non-encrypted connections.http://[host]:[port]/activevos
2. In the ActiveVOS Console, on the Home page, click Administration > Configure Server > URN
Mappings.
3. For the following URNs, update the paths to reflect the host name and port number of the ActiveVOS
Server:

URN URL Path

ae:internal-reporting Encrypted connections. https://[host]:[port]/activevos/

internalreports
Non-encrypted connections. http://[host]:[port]/activevos/
internalreports

ae:task-inbox Encrypted connections. https://[host]:[port]/activevos-

central/avc
Non-encrypted connections. http://[host]:[port]/activevos-
central/avc

4. Verify that urn:mdm:service is mapped to the host name and port number of the MDM Hub Server:
Encrypted connections.https://[host]:[port]/cmx/services/BeServices
Non-encrypted connections.http://[host]:[port]/cmx/services/BeServices

Installing the Resource Kit in Console Mode 135

Installing the Resource Kit in Silent Mode
You can install the Resource Kit 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 Resource Kit, 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 Resource Kit installation files to the hard disk on the machine where you plan to install the
Resource Kit. 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 silentInstallResourceKit_sample.properties file in the following directory:

On UNIX. /silent_install/mrmresourcekit
On Windows. \silent_install\mrmresourcekit
After you customize the file, 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\
\resourcekit.
2. Create a backup copy of the silentInstallResourceKit_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 silentInstallresourcekit.properties.

Troubleshooting the MDM Hub

This chapter includes the following topic:

• Troubleshooting the Installation Process, 140

Troubleshooting the Installation Process

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

PostInstallSetUp script fails because the ActiveVOS server deployment times out
When you install the Hub Server, the post-installation setup process might fail after trying to deploy the
ActiveVOS server.

To resolve the issue, increase the value of the deploy.wait.time property in the build.properties file in
the following directory:

On UNIX. <infamdm installation directory>/hub/server/bin

On Windows. <infamdm installation directory>\hub\server\bin

PostInstallSetUp script fails with java.lang.OutOfMemoryError

When you install the Hub Server in a Solaris operating system, the postInstallSetUp script might fail with
java.lang.OutOfMemoryError.

To resolve the issue, perform the following steps after you complete the installation:

1. Open the build.properties file in the following directory:

<infamdm installation directory>/hub/server/bin
2. In the <wldeploy> target, add following memory settings:
<jvmarg value="-Xms2048m"/>
<jvmarg value="-Xmx2048m"/>
<jvmarg value="-XX:PermSize=512m"/>
<jvmarg value="-XX:MaxPermSize=1024m"/>
3. Save the file.
4. Run the postInstallSetUp script.

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.

140
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, you might find the following error, which confirms that the database is not accessible:
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

- 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"/>

Troubleshooting the Installation Process 141

Operational Reference Store does not have a workflow engine configured

If you install the MDM Hub and then import an Operational Reference Store (ORS) from a previous version,
you see a fatal error that indicates that the ORS does not have a workflow engine configured. This error
occurs because the Siperian BPM workflow engine is not registered by default. Use the Workflow Manager to
register the Siperian BPM workflow engine with the name that the ORS expects to find.

Step 1. Pre-Installation Tasks

Before you install, perform the following tasks:

 Read the Release Notes for updates to the installation process.

 Download and extract the installer files.

 Verify the license key. Before you install the software, verify that you have the license key for the product
you plan to install. Contact Informatica Global Customer Support if you do not have a license key.

 Verify the minimum system requirements to install MDM Multidomain Edition.

 Set up the environment variables you must configure to work with the MDM Multidomain Edition
installation.

148
 Set an operating system locale for the MDM Hub components.

 Set up the X Window Server. If you want to run the installer in graphical mode on UNIX, set up the X
Window Server.

 Install and configure Oracle according to instructions in the Oracle documentation.

Ensure that you perform the following configurations:
• Disablethe Oracle Recycle Bin. Disable the Oracle Recycle Bin because it can interfere with the MDM
Hub processes.
• Set the NLS_LANG environment variable. Set the NLS_LANG environment variable for the environment
in which the client applications, such as the Oracle loader, the Hub Server, and the Process Server,
run. NLS_LANG sets the language, territory, and character set that the client applications use.
• Configure
the init.ora parameters. Configure the init.ora parameters for the production environment of
the MDM Hub installation.
• Createan Oracle database instance. Create an Oracle database instance for the MDM Hub Master
Database and the Operational Reference Stores.
• Createtablespaces. You must create the CMX_DATA, CMX_INDX, CMX_TEMP tablespaces for the
Hub Store.
• Ifyou use the DBA user to create the MDM Hub Master Database and the Operational Reference
Stores, grant privileges to the DBA user.
• Add the Oracle TNS name. Add the TNS name entries to the tnsnames.ora file on the Hub Server and
Process Server machines to connect to the Oracle database.
• Testthe database connection. Test the connection to the database from each machine on which you
want to run the Hub Server or the Process Server.
• If you want to create the Hub Store in an Oracle RAC environment, install and configure Oracle RAC.

 Install and configure WebLogic according to the instructions in the WebLogic documentation.
Ensure that you perform the following configurations:
• Ifthe operating system uses Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6), configure the WebLogic startup script to
use it.
• Configure the WebLogic startup script to force WebLogic and JGroups to use the same bind address.
• Configure the WebLogic startup script to make it J2EE13 compliant.
• Set the maximum JVM heap size in the WebLogic startup script.
• Configure an appropriate value for the WebLogic memory variable.
• Ifyou want to install Informatica platform, configure Java options in the WebLogic startup script to use
the Sun HTTP Handler.
• Set the log4j.xml file configuration path in the WebLogic startup script.
• Configure WebLogic to use an Oracle data source. If you install the Process Server and the Hub Server
on separate machines, create data sources for each Operational Reference Store on the Process
Server machine.
• Create a master data source. If you install the Process Server and the Hub Server or Oracle on
separate machines, create a data source for the Master Database on the Process Server machine.
• Create an Operational Reference Store data source. If you install the Process Server and the Hub
Server or Oracle on separate machines, create a data source for the Operational Reference Store on
the Process Server machine.
• If you want to install the MDM Hub in a WebLogic clustered environment, create a WebLogic cluster.

Step 1. Pre-Installation Tasks 149

 • Configure WebLogic for multiple MDM Hub Master Databases. If you want to configure multiple MDM
Hub Master Databases, you have to install an MDM Hub instance for each MDM Hub Master Database.
To install multiple MDM Hub instances on the same machine, deploy each MDM Hub instance on
separate WebLogic domains.

 Install and configure external cleanse engines that you might want to use for cleanse operations.

 Determine the timeline granularity that you want to use. Timeline granularity is the time measurement
that you want to use to define effective periods for versions of records. To be prepared to configure the
timeline granularity when you create or update an Operational Reference Store, determine the timeline
granularity.

 Configure the Informatica platform properties file. If you want to install Informatica platform as part of the
MDM Hub installation, create an Informatica platform properties file.

 Create an installation documentation directory to store copies of installation files, such as the validation
results, environment reports, and log files.

 Create the ActiveVOS database schema. Create the ActiveVOS database schema before you install the
Hub Server. The ActiveVOS database stores data about the state of the processes.

 Create the user for the ActiveVOS Console with the role abAdmin.

Step 2. Create the Hub Store

To create a Hub Store, perform the following tasks:

 Create the MDM Hub Master Database. You must create the MDM Hub Master Database before you
install the Hub Server. The MDM Hub Master Database will store the MDM Hub environment
configuration settings.

 Create an Operational Reference Store. You can create an Operational Reference Store at any time after
you install and configure the database environment.

 Import the metadata into the MDM Hub Master Database. The metadata includes repository tables and
other objects that the MDM Hub requires in the Hub Store.

 Import the metadata into the Operational Reference Store. The metadata includes repository tables and
other objects that the MDM Hub requires in the Hub Store.

Step 3. Install the Hub Server

Use the Hub Server installer to install the Hub Server on a Windows or UNIX machine. If you have a
clustered environment, you can install the Hub Server on multiple cluster nodes.

150 Appendix A: Installation and Configuration Checklist

Step 4. Hub Server Post-Installation Tasks
After you install the Hub Server, perform the following tasks:

 Copy the installation log files to the installation documentation directory that you created. Use the log
files to troubleshoot installation issues.

 Verify the version and build number of the Hub Server.

 Perform the following Hub Server configurations:

• Deploy the Hub Server EAR file on the same machine on which you installed the Hub Server.
• Configure the Hub Server for logging in the log4j.xml file.
• Configure the Hub Server properties in the cmxserver.properties file.
• If
you skipped the post-installation setup script during installation, run the post-installation setup script
manually.
• If the Hub Server deployment fails, manually redeploy the Hub Server.

 If you want to configure multiple Process Servers, manually configure data sources.

 If you want to troubleshoot issues, or the automated queue creation process fails, manually configure
JMS Message queues.

 If you want to change the password for the Operational Reference Store (ORS), change it.

 If you have custom JAR files, repackage the JAR files in the siperian-mrm.ear file after you install the
Hub Server.

 To enable the AnonymousAdminLookupEnabled method of WebLogic for the registration of the ORS,
restart WebLogic.

 To handle caching requirements, configure JBoss Cache.

 If you installed Informatica platform, configure the MDM Hub to log Informatica platform processes.

 Configure the Developer tool to write the workspace metadata to the machine where the user is logged
in.

 Start the Hub Console to verify access to the Hub Server.

 Register Operational Reference Stores that you create by using the Hub Console.

 Configure the ActiveVOS URNs. Configure the URN mappings in the ActiveVOS Console to reflect the
host name and the port number of the ActiveVOS Server.

 Add ActiveVOS Console user and the workflow adapter users to the application server. You must use the
same user names, passwords, and roles in the MDM Hub, ActiveVOS, and the application server.

Step 5. Install the Process Server

Use the Process Server installer to install the Process Server on a Windows or UNIX machine. If you have a
clustered environment, you can install the Process Server on multiple cluster nodes.

Step 4. Hub Server Post-Installation Tasks 151

Step 6. Process Server Post-Installation Tasks
After you install the Hub Server, perform the following tasks:

 Copy the installation log files to the installation documentation directory that you created.

 Verify the version and build number of the Process Server.

 Perform the following Process Server configurations:

• Deploy the Process Server EAR file on the same machine on which you installed the Process Server.
• Configure the Process Server with external cleanse engines.
• Configure the Process Server to delete the temporary files that the cleanse process generates.
• Configure the Process Server for logging in the log4j.xml file.
• Configure the Hub Server properties in the cmxserver.properties file.
• If
you skipped the post-installation setup script during installation, run the post-installation setup script
manually.
• If the Process Server deployment fails, manually redeploy the Process Server.

 Configure the Process Server for multithreading. 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.

 Configure multiple Process Servers for cleanse and match operations.

 Configure multiple Process Servers for batch processes.

 Configure match population. You must configure the match population to use for the match rules.

 Configure the Process Server for smart search.

Step 7. Install the Resource Kit (Optional)

You can install the samples, applications, and utilities in the Resource Kit. Use the Resource Kit installer to
install the Resource Kit on a Windows or UNIX machine.

To install the Resource Kit, perform the following tasks:

 Set up the MDM Hub sample Operational Reference Store (ORS). The Resource Kit samples and utilities
require the sample ORS.

 Register the MDM Hub sample Operational Reference Store in the Hub Console.

 Run the Resource Kit installer. Use the Resource Kit installer to install the Resource Kit on a Windows or
UNIX machine. If you have a clustered environment, you can install the Hub Server on multiple cluster
nodes.
