CHAPTER 15 Using Metadata Exchange (MX) Views This chapter includes the folowing topics: “+ Viewing the Repository Metadata, 152 ‘+ Database Definition View, 155 + Source Views, 156 + Target Views, 163 ‘+ Mapping and Mapplet Views, 169 ‘+ Metadata Extension Views, 181 ‘+ Transformation Views, 182 ‘+ Worktlow, Worklet, and Task Views, 187 + Security Views, 208 + Deployment Views, 208 “+ Repositary View, 211 ‘+ Integration Service Views, 212 ‘+ Change Management Views, 213, “+ Folder View. 215 Viewing the Repository Metadata 182 PowerCenter Metadata Exchange (MX) provides a set of relational views that allow easy SQL access to the PowerCenter metadata repository. The Repository Manager generates these views when you create of upgrade a repository Warning: The PowerCenter repository tables have an open architecture, Although you can view the pository tables, Informatica strongly advises against altering the tables of data within the tables, Informatica Is not responsible for corrupted data that is caused by customer alteration ofthe repository tables or data within those tables. Therefore, do not directly access the actual repository tables. Instead, use MX to access the repository,MX View Categories MX views provide information to help you analyze metadata stored inthe repository. ‘The following table ists the available MX views by category Category Description Database Provides asf database dation inthe eposoy. Sourees Provides asf source dettons by fle. Targets Provides ast of target dtatons by fdr. Mappings and Wappets | Provides aso sources, targets, anc transformations used in mappings and ‘applets by flr. Metadata Extensions | Provides detals of metadala extensions defined for object. ‘Transformations Provides detals of tansfrmation instances by folder. Workdows, Worlets, and | Provides static and run Ue dell for workflows and worklels by flier. Tasks secunty Provides user information. Deployment Provides deployment deals such as deployment groups and objects that wee oployod tom one repository to ancther Repostory Provides repostory deals such a epostory nae and conection iformaton, Inesraton Seco Provides datas such as sumer ae ad host nama ‘change Management | Provide version history of object nd be estas. Faldo Provides datas sue as folder name and docttin. For example, ia source table changes, and you need to re-import the source definition into the repository, you could use the REP_SRC_MAPPING view to see how many mappings include this source. Likewise, i You want to view source and target dependencies for a mapping, you could use REP_TBL_MAPPING, ‘Almost all views supporl access to comment information. You can add comments to any object within PowerCenter through the Designer and Workllow Manager. You can access comments about individual tables, table relationships, data fields, and data transformations. Use these views to create reports using third-party reporting tools, such as Crystal Reports. MX faciltates the integration of decision support metadata between the PowerCenter repository and popular Decision Support System (DSS) tools, data modeling tools, and any other metadata resources. With MX, you can drill down to the operational metadata level and expose information needed to support decisions. MX also helps you make precise information requests that draw from data models, mappings, and transformation data, For IS professionals, the MX architecture provides the following benefits ‘+ Improves warehouse maintenance and management capabiliy ‘+ Reduces time and resources required to support end-user requests, ‘+ Expands the abiliy to provide information resources in a controlled manner. Note: The Designer includes options to save MX data, Viewing he Repostny Metadata 153,164 Using PowerCenter Repository Reports You can browse and analyze PowerCenter metadata with PowerCenter Repository Reports PowerCenter Repository Reports prepackages a set of reports and dashboards, which can be easily customized to meet business needs. The prepackaged dashboards and reports enable you to analyze the {allowing types of metadata stored in a PowerCenter repositery: ‘+ Source and target metadata ‘+ Transformation metadata ‘+ Mapping and mapplet metadata “+ Workflow and worklet metadata + Session metadata ‘+ Change management metadata ‘+ User metadata + Operational metadata SQL Definition of Views PowerCenter provides two sets of SCL. scripts: one to create the MX views and one to drop MX views. Creating MX Views Each time you create or upgrade a repository, the Repository Service runs SQL scripts that creates the MX views. ‘The following table ists the SQL scripts to create MX views: Repository Database SQL Serint tow 082 zm sg_ and dB2moI2sg_ Micosot Sab Sener sloldsa_and smeb2sq_ Oracle cram sq_and ora. Sypase sybmbldsq_ ane syomabsq_ These SQL scripts are stored in the Repository Service installation directory. Dropping MX Views Ityou delete a repository, the Repository Service runs SQL. scripts that drops the MX views. You can run the scripts from the Designer. The following table lists the SQL scripts to drop MX views: Repository Database ‘8QL Script Taw 082 doamesrp.sq_and dbase? sa Microsoft SOL Server ‘salmdep and sgimar2 ‘Chapter 15: Using Metadata Exchange (MX) ViewsRepository Database ‘SQL Script Oracle oramap.sq_ and oramua2 sq_ Sybase sybmadipse_ and syomade2 sa ‘These SQL scripts are stored in the Repository Service installation directory. Integrating MX Views with Third-Party Software With MX software and support from Informatica, vendors of popular query and reporting tools can quickly create a metadata link between their products and the PowerCenter repository. Software vendors can integrate PowerCenter metadata with their products through different methods, from pulling the PowerCenter metadata into product or user repositories lo providing dynamic desktop pass- through access, The next generation of MX, called Metadata Exchange SDK, provides an object-based application programming interface (API) to read and wrte metadata in Informatica repositories. Database Definition View ‘The database definition view provides a list ofall database definitions in the repository. A database definition includes the source database names, flat file or RDBMS, and the folder where the database definition resides. MX provides the REP_DATABASE_DEFS view to help you analyze database defintions, REP_DATABASE_DEFS The following table lists database definition details: ‘column Name Datatype Description DATABASE NAME ‘VARCHAR?

VERSION_NUNBER NUWBER Version number fh database Database Definition View 155Source Views 186 Source views provide a list ofthe atest version of all source definitions defined by folder of any PowerCenter repository. Source definitions can be defined for both relational and non-relational sources. These views also show source properties such as shortcuts, creation date, version, description, and business name. They also provide information such as source columns, column properties, source metadata extensions, and mappings and mapplets where these sources are used, The following table ists the different views that help you analyze source metadata’ view Description REP_ALL_SOURCES ‘This view proves ast ofthe latos version of surcas dened in each older of repos.

The field expression describes the source definition and transformation corresponding to the target feld. In addition to viewing the MX data in MX views, you ean view the field expressions in the Main window of the Repository Manager when you analyze source-target dependencies. Note: MX views do not provide field expressions forall ransformations. MX views provide field expressions for Expression, Aggregator, Rank, Lookup, Stored Procedure, External Procedure, Router, Custom, and Normalizer transformations.
