MDM components & MDM connection in metadata in TOS

billimmer — Mon, 21 May 2018 15:16:19 GMT

Hi Group,

I'm using TOS 6.4.1 and I notice that when I create a metadata MDM connection, I can't drag it to a job to create a tMDMConnection. Is this a bug in my current version?

I also can't share an MDM connection with most MDM components, specifically tMDMBulkLoad.

Thanks!

Hello,

Are you able to drop tMDMInput or tMDMOutput component after defining MDM schema?

There is no "Use an existing conneciton" option in tMDMBulkLoad component. It will be selected if you want to use a configured tMDMConnection component.

Best regards

Yes I can drag and drop a tMDMOutput or tMDMInput from a metadata connection. I just can't drop a tMDMConnection from the metadata, which seems very strange. I need to re-create it from the palette in each job.

In tMDMBulkLoad I can select my tMDMConnection from the Use Transaction->Component List, but selecting it does not populate the connection fields in the tMDMBulkLoad, or gray them out like all the other data components. It's a little confusing and inconsistent.

Thanks
