Adding or Removing Metadata Files for a Resource

Adding or Removing Metadata Files for a Resource

Add a metadata file to a resource to configure the source from which Metadata Manager extracts metadata. Remove a metadata file from a resource if you want to remove the metadata from the Metadata Manager warehouse or load a different metadata source file.
You can add one metadata file for each resource. After you remove a metadata file, you can purge the metadata from the Metadata Manager warehouse.
You can add or remove the following metadata files:
  • Metadata source files.
     Add or remove a metadata source file for packaged resource types.
  • Attribute and association files.
    Add or remove attribute and association files for a custom resource. You must also add a metadata source file if the contents of an existing attribute and association file changes.
To change the metadata in the source file that Metadata Manager loads into the Metadata Manager warehouse, change the contents of the metadata source file and add the file again. You can also upload the file to the following directory on the node that runs the Metadata Manager Service: 
<Informatica installation directory>\services\MetadataManagerService\mm_files\<Metadata Manager Service name>\mm_load\data_files\<resource ID>
  1. On the Load tab, select the resource for which you want to add or remove files.
  2. In the Resources panel, click the
    Configuration
     tab, and then click
    Edit
    .
    The
    Edit Resources
     window appears.
  3. To add a metadata source file, click
    Add
     and select the file.
    If you configured Metadata Manager to use the latest source files, include an absolute path to the file that is accessible from the Metadata Manager Service machine.
  4. Optionally, direct Metadata Manager to update the metadata in the warehouse with the metadata in the source file.
  5. To remove a metadata source file, select the file and click
    Remove.
  6. Click
    OK
    .
