Information Steward Accelerator (ISA)

Create the Target Environment Project and Connections in the CMC

Before performing this task:

  1. Export IS Project Content in IS

  2. Create the CTS Package of ISA Content in the DSP®

  3. Create the CTS Package of Schedules Referenced by ISA in the DSP®

Refer to CTS for ISA Overview for general information.

The next step in the CTS process for ISA is to add the project and connection(s) for the target environment.

NOTE: Confirm the names of the Project and connections from the source instance. These must be entered exactly when creating the project and connections in the CMC.

To create the target project and source connections.

  1. Log on to the Central Management Console.
  2. Navigate to the Information Steward area.
  3. Right-click Manage and choose New > Data Insight Project.

  4. Enter the name of the Project in the ISA source environment in the DSP®.

    NOTE: The name must match the Project name in the ISA’s source instance or the import process will fail to align the source and target environments.

  1. Enter a description.

    NOTE: The description is required.

  2. Click Save.
  3. Right-click Manage and choose New > Connection.
  4. Enter the connection details to the ISFailedData database on the DSP® database server, again ensuring that the name of the connection matches the name of the source environment IS failed data database.
  5. Right-click Manage and choose New > Connection.
  6. Enter the connection details to any other connections required by the IS project being exported.  Ensure that the name of the connections is identical to the name used in the source environment.
  7. Test all of the connections to ensure they connect to the target database environment correctly.

Continue by importing the IS Project into the IS Target environment.
