Rules and Guidelines for Parameter Files

Rules and Guidelines for Parameter Files

Metadata Manager uses the following guidelines to read the parameter files:
  • If you define the same parameter or variable in multiple sections in the parameter file, the parameter or variable with the smallest scope takes precedence over parameters or variables with larger scope. For example, a parameter file contains the following sections: 
    [HET_TGTS.WF:wf_TGTS_ASC_ORDR]
$DBConnection_ora=Ora2
[HET_TGTS.WF:wf_TGTS_ASC_ORDR.ST:s_TGTS_ASC_ORDR]
$DBConnection_ora=Ora3
    In session s_TGTS_ASC_ORDR, the value for session parameter $DBConnection_ora is “Ora3.” In all other sessions in the workflow, it is “Ora2.”
  • If a mapping parameter is not assigned a value in the parameter file, Metadata Manager uses the default value of the parameter in the mapping.
  • If a parameter value that contains single-byte characters exceeds 4000 characters, Metadata Manager truncates the value to 4000 characters. If a parameter value that contains multibyte characters exceeds 2000 characters, Metadata Manager truncates the value to 2000 characters.
  • Metadata Manager cannot read a parameter file that is assigned to a PowerCenter folder with a name that contains the following special characters: 
    . + - = ~ ` ! % ^ & * () [] {} ' \ " ; : / ? , < > \\ | \t \r \n
