Configuring Application Connection for Siebel EIM Read and Load Transformations

The Siebel EIM Read and Load transformations use the Siebel Database Connection application connection to connect to the Siebel database. When you configure an application connection for the Siebel EIM Read or Load transformation, you must specify the connection attributes for the Siebel database.

To configure an application connection for the Siebel EIM Read or Load transformations:

In the Workflow Manager, click Connections > Application.

The Application Connection Browser dialog box appears.

Click New.

Select Siebel Database Connection from the list.

Click OK.

The Connection Object Definition dialog box appears.

Enter the connection parameters.

The following table describes the connection object parameters:

Connection Parameter	Description
User Name	User name to connect to Siebel.
Password	Password for the user name.
Connect String	ODBC data source name. Use Informatica certified ODBC drivers for ODBC data source connection.
Connection Retry Period	Number of seconds the PowerCenter Integration Service attempts to reconnect to the database if the connection fails. If the PowerCenter Integration Service fails to connect to the database in the retry period, the session fails. If you set the connection retry period to 0, the PowerCenter Integration Service does not attempt to reconnect to the database if the connection fails. Default is 0.
Table Name Prefix	If required, configure the table name prefix to establish connection with the database. Default is Blank. Enter the name of the Siebel database schema as the table name prefix when Oracle is the target database.

For more information about connection parameters, contact your Siebel system administrator.
