Can I trap the Informatica Amazon S3Bucket name doesn’t match standards


In Informatica we have mapping source qualifiers connecting to Amazon Web Services—AWS.

We often and erratically get a failure that our s3 bucket names do not comply with naming standards. We restart the workflows again and they continue on every time successfully.

Is there a way to trap for this specifically and then maybe call a command object to restart the workflow command via PMCMD?


Solution

  • Well... It's possible for example to have workflow one (W1):

    your_session --> cmd_touch_file_if_session_failed
    

    and another workflow (W2), running continuously:

    event_wait_for_W1_file --> pmcmd_restart_W1 --> delete_watch_file
    

    Although it would be a lot better to nail down the cause for your failures and get it resolved.
