IICS CDI Quiz5

You can invoke and run a taskflow from the taskflow designer, as an API, or through a connector file listener. You can also run a taskflow on a schedule.

You can preview data for any transformation except for the following transformations:
Data Masking
Hierarchy Builder
Input
Output
Sequence Generator
Velocity
Web Services
Target

IICS can be used for all kinds of data loads, you can transfer data between cloud, on-premise or any mix of these types.

You cannot delete an asset in the following situations:
The asset is a task that is currently running.
The asset is a mapping that is currently running.
The asset is used by another asset. You must first delete the dependencies of the asset before you can delete the asset.For information about viewing asset dependencies.
The asset is a task that is in a linear taskflow. You must first remove the task from the taskflow process.
The asset is a taskflow that was published, previously run from the taskflow designer, or associated with a schedule. You must first unpublish the taskflow, and then delete it.

Option "To delete an asset, first delete the dependent objects and then delete the asset" is not true as we don't need to delete all dependent objects we can simple make them not dependable on the object we want to delete for example by unpublishing the asset.

Transformations to the mapping can be added in two ways:
Perform one of the following tasks to add a transformation to a mapping:
Drag a transformation from the pallette on the left onto the canvas.
Double click on the canvas and select a transformation.

An active transformation can change the number of rows that pass through the transformation. For example, the Filter transformation is active because it removes rows that do not meet the filter condition.
A passive transformation does not change the number of rows that pass through the transformation.
The Aggregator transformation performs aggregations on groups, such as sums, and reduces the number of rows.
Normalizer is an active transformation. It converts one incoming row into multiple incoming rows.

The mapping schedule was not entered into the parameter file - there is no need to include mapping schedule in the parameter file.
The parameter file name was changed - if the parameter file name was changed then IICS will try to read a file which doesn't exist and it will result in a mapping failure.
A wildcard was used in the file path - You cannot use a wild card in a parameter path.
The parameter file was edited but not saved - In this scenario IICS will use a parameter file without new changes.

Intelligent Structure Model and a Structure Parser transformating work very well together. When you configure a Structure Parser transformation, you associate it with an intelligent structure model. An intelligent structure model is an asset that Intelligent Structure Discovery generates to represent the data that you expect the model to parse at run time. You can create a model before you configure the Structure Parser transformation or as you configure it.

Informatica Cloud Repository Securely stores connection information, organization and task metadata, and any additional metadata created by users. Metadata includes: logging information, monitoring, schedules, connection informations, source and target metadata as well as mapping metadata.

The Cloud Secure Agent is not stored in the IICS repository instead it is installed on local machines to which you need access. Cloud Secure Agent is a lightweight program that runs all tasks and enables secure communication across the firewall between your organization and Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services.
