Sample parameter file and using parameter file in Informatica
Below is a sample of a simple parameter file. All the global variables used by all the sessions are defined under [Global] and the session specific variable overrides are defined under session names.-----------------------------------------------------
$DBConnection_VSTP=VSTPDW_HIST_US
[s_MYSQL_EXT_Load5]
$$BATCH_KEY=204
$$YEAR=2016
$InputFile_Name=$$PMRootDir\SrcFiles\SRC1.EXT.G2016.txt
[s_SRC2_EXT_Load]
$$BATCH_KEY=204
$$YEAR=2016
$InputFile_Name=$$PMRootDir\SrcFiles\SRC2.EXT.G2016.txt
[s_SRC3_EXT_Load]
$$BATCH_KEY=204
$$YEAR=2016
$InputFile_Name=$$PMRootDir\SrcFiles\SRC2.EXT.G2016.txt
[s_SRC4_EXT_Load]
$$BATCH_KEY=204
$$YEAR=2016
$InputFile_Name=$$PMRootDir\SrcFiles\SRC14.EXT.G2016.txt
