When you work with Informatica Powercenter you probably have a development and production repository. This means you will have to transfer workflows form one repository to the other. You can use the copy function, but that doesn't work very well.
Instead you can use the import and export function. This works pretty good, but be sure to use the import and export function in the repository manager. The XML created by the repository manager is far more extended then the one in the workflowmanager.
But its not all milk and cookies.I often noticed that after importing my connections where gone. Second, the folders for the sources in the development repository are different then the folders in the production repository (i.e. for management reasons). I my case, we had less folders in the production repository so we had to fit some sources to different folders. This was a bit tricky.
I used the following trick to speedup the process:
- Edit the XML using a good editor.
- Find the connectionstring and alter it to the correct production stringname.
- Find the foldernames and alter those to the correct production foldername.
- Safe the XML and start your import again.
