Installing IICS Secure Agent
Overview:
The secure agent is a lightweight, self-upgrading program that runs inside your network. It is
responsible for moving data from the source to a target.
IICS secure agent runs all tasks and enables secure communication between your organization
and Informatica Cloud.
Certain system requirements must be met to install the secure agent. This document lists the
system requirements and the installation steps.
Objective:
 List the system requirements for installing IICS secure agent
 Install the secure agent
 Provide Administrator Rights to Secure Agent
 Rename the secure agent
Duration:
60 minutes

System requirements for installing IICS secure agent:

You must have a multi-core CPU system (at least 2 cores and 4 CPUs/Logical
Processors).
It is recommended that your system has a minimum of 16 GB RAM.
Your system must have at least 100 GB of disk space to run tasks and store caches and
logs with success.
Your system must have a web browser.
Note: Supported browsers are – Internet Explorer version 11, Google Chrome version
62.0 and higher, and Mozilla Firefox (64-bit) version 56.0 and higher.
You can install the secure agent on a Windows 64-bit system or a Linux 64-bit system.
The secure agent uses the HTTPS port 443 to connect to the internet. You must
configure the firewall to allow traffic to pass over port 443.
Do not install the secure agent on the same system that is running the Informatica
PowerCenter Domain server, as it might cause LIB/PATH conflicts and performance
issues.
Do not install more than one secure agent on the same system, as this can cause agent
ID conflicts during its registration under Informatica Cloud Point of Deployments (PODs).
If your company uses a proxy server, you must configure proxy server settings when you
install the secure agent for the first time.

Troubleshooting Prerequisite Installations 35

Secure Agent
Issue: Secure Agent Service status is disabled

Solution: The disabled status of the Informatica Cloud Secure Agent indicates an issue in installation and
that the files required for starting the services are missing. You must uninstall and re-install the secure
agent to fix this issue. To uninstall the Secure Agent, refer to the section on Uninstalling the Secure
Agent.

Issue: ‘Not all the services are running’

Solution: There are many reasons why the agent does not come up. The best method to find the reason
is to check the agent audit logs and agentcore.log files.

 To view the audit logs for a secure agent, navigate to Administrator > Runtime Environments
> Secure Agent > Audit Log.
 The agentcore.log file is located in the following location: C:\Program Files\Informatica Cloud
Secure Agent\apps\agentcore

You will then have to go through the log files and look for the errors. A few commonly seen errors are
listed below.

Commonly seen errors in agentcore.log file:

1. The following error message can be seen in the agentcore.log while registering the secure agent
with proxy information.
2018-08-11 11:58:05,127 MST ERROR
[com.informatica.saas.rest.client.spring.RestTemplateExtended] - HTTP request to URL
https://dm-us.informaticacloud.com/ma/api/v3/InternalLogin failed with HTTP status
[PROXY_AUTHENTICATION_REQUIRED AuthenticationRequired] and response body []
2018-08-11 11:58:05,127 MST ERROR
[com.informatica.saas.infaagent.agentcore.AgentCoreStateMachine] - Unable to create
metadata file due to the following [407 AuthenticationRequired]."

Solution: Navigate to file proxy.ini located at C:\Program Files\Informatica Cloud Secure

Agent\apps\agentcore\conf and provide the proxy details. Save the file and restart the agent.

A sample entry in proxy.ini:

InfaAgent.ProxyHost=ProxyHostName
InfaAgent.ProxyPort=3128
InfaAgent.ProxyUser=testuser
InfaAgent.ProxyPassword=infa12345

2. The secure agent keeps restarting or the Data Integration service is getting restarted. The
following message is seen in agentcore.log:
[LCM_10012] Administrator-1.0.1 is restarting due to an error encountered while
running: [Administrator-1.0.1]

36 Troubleshooting Prerequisite Installations

 or its Data Integration Server:
[LCM_10012] Data_Integration_Server-52.0.3 is restarting due to an error encountered
while running: [Data_Integration_Server-52.0.3]

Solution: This can have different causes. The most likely are:

a. Missing licenses i.e. the SDK license: Check with the Informatica support team
([email protected]) regarding the licenses.
b. Corrupted Secure Agent files: Re-install the secure agent.

3. Secure agent status stuck at “Not all the services are running”. The following message is seen in
the log file.

To re-install the Secure Agent, you must first uninstall it. Perform the following steps to uninstall the
Secure Agent.

a. From the File Explorer, navigate to C:\Program Files\Informatica Cloud Secure

Agent\Uninstall_Informatica Cloud Secure Agent.
Note: The agent installation path may vary from user to user.
b. Run the Uninstall Informatica Cloud Secure Agent.exe application.

c. Verify that the Informatica Cloud Secure Agent folder is removed from the C:\Program Files
location. If not, manually delete all the remaining files in the installation directory.
d. After the Informatica Cloud Secure Agent folder is removed, re-install the secure agent.

Important points for secure agent installation:

1. Always use the latest secure agent installer downloaded from the IICS Org.
2. Always run the secure agent as an ‘Administrator’.

3. After providing the org details and the install token in the secure agent registration window, the
secure agent downloads the necessary files for the connectors. This process takes 20-30 minutes
(depending upon the internet speed). You must not stop or restart the secure agent until the secure
agent status changes to “Up and running”.
4. You must provide Administrator rights to your secure agent.

Lab 4-1: Create Connections
Overview:
Connections define the location and the credentials of the data source or the data target to
which Cloud Integration Hub connects when a source application publishes data, or when a
target application consumes published data.

In this lab, you will create Salesforce and Flat File connections. You will also load data into
Salesforce.

Scenario:
GMT electronics has various departments that use multiple databases. The product team is
maintaining their data in the Oracle database, whereas another department has its data in flat
files. Luci, the database administrator of GMT electronics, will use CIH to eliminate spaghetti
integration code by reducing point-to-point integrations. First, she will create connections in IICS
for all the databases in which data is residing.

Objectives:
 Create a Salesforce connection in IICS
 Create a Flat File connection in IICS
 Create Data Synchronization tasks to write the data into your Salesforce
Duration:
45 minutes

Tasks
In this lab exercise, you will create connections that will be used in the later labs of the training.
The first connection is a Salesforce connection – used to read/write the data from/to Salesforce.
The second connection is a Flat File connection – used to access the flat files folder on your
local machine. In the later labs, you will write the Salesforce data from your Salesforce account
into Hub. To do this, you just need to have some data in your salesforce account. Thus, we will
presume that you don’t have any data/delete the existing data, and using Synchronization tasks,
you will load some sample data into your Salesforce accounts (Contacts and Accounts assets).

the quality check and hence be discarded. Now, you have mixed data of qualified and
unqualified products in a flatfile. Wherein, the products that have passed the quality checks
were given a status ‘1’ and the products that failed a status code ‘0’. James will now create a
mapping task in IICS that splits the products based on their quality check codes and publishes
the data into two different topic tables.

Lab 5-1: Create a Subscription in CIH Using the DSS Task
Overview:
You can create a subscription using a DSS task in two ways:

 Create a Data Integration DSS task in IICS and use it in a Subscription. This is just
similar to the way you created a DSS task for publication in lab 8.
 The other way is while creating a subscription in CIH, create a DSS task using the
option Create New Task. Here, by default CIH takes the source connection as Cloud
Integration Hub. So, you only have to configure the source table, target connection,
and target table details.
In this lab, we will follow the second method of creating a subscription using the DSS task in
CIH.

Scenario:
James will subscribe to the topics to which he published data in the previous labs and consume
the data by creating subscriptions to various topics. He will create a Subscription using the DSS
task.

Objectives:
 Create a Subscription
 Verify Subscription event
Duration:
15 minutes

Tasks
Till now, you have seen different ways of publishing data into the hub. In this lab, you will learn
how to read/consume data from the hub. Here, you will read the Contacts details from the hub
and write the data into a flat file.
First, place the required empty target file from your training folder to your flat files folder. By
doing this, the secure agent can access the target file.

Module 5: Subscriptions 237

 1. To place the required file in your flat file directory, on your machine, navigate to the
folder C:\CIH Training, and copy the CSV file Contact_Sub.

2. Paste the files in your flat file directory “C:\IICSLabFiles”.

238 Module 5: Subscriptions

Now, you will log into CIH and create a subscription to consume data from the hub. You will
accomplish this using a Data Synchronization task. For subscriptions, you can create a DSS
task from the CIH console itself. Let us see how to create it.
3. In the Chrome browser, log in to IICS and navigate to the Integration Hub service (if
navigated away).

4. To create a Subscription, from the Navigator pane, click New.

Lab 5-4: Create a Mapping task (MTT) in IICS for Compound
Subscription
Overview:
Compound Subscriptions can consume data from multiple topics. You must ensure that all the
topics are of the same type. Till now you have seen consuming data from a single topic. Now
you will learn to consume data from multiple topics.

In this lab, you will create a Mapping task that will be used by Compound Subscription
(Compound subscription means a subscription that consumes data from multiple topics at a
time) in later labs.

Scenario:
James creates a Mapping task to load the Salesforce Account data and Contact data into the
target using Joiner transformation, which further can be used in a subscription.

Objectives:
 Create a mapping in IICS
 Create a Mapping Task
Duration:
60 minutes

Pre-requisites:
You will use the Account topic in the mapping and consume data from it. But, the Account topic
has no data in it. You will load data into this topic from the Salesforce accounts data. You will
achieve this using the DSS task.
1. Publish Accounts data from Salesforce Developer org to Account Topic in Cloud
Integration Hub.

Module 5: Subscriptions 287

 a. In the IICS, go to the Data Integration service and create a DSS task
DSS_Salesforce_Account, to load the Accounts data from Salesforce to
Informatica Cloud Integration Hub.

Account Name ACCOUNT_NAME
Billing City BILLINGCITY
Billing State/Province BILLINGSTATE
Billing Zip/Postal Code BILLINGPOSTALCODE
Billing Country BILLINGCOUNTRY
Account Phone PHONE
Website WEBSITE

c. Save and close the DSS task after validating the field mappings.

Lab 7-2: Create and Manage Tags
Overview:
A tag is an asset property that you can use to list assets on the Explore page that share a
common attribute. Assign tags to assets so that you can easily view associated assets on the
Explore page. You can filter the Explore page to list assets that have a tag that you specify.

You can create tags that you want to use for an asset when you configure the asset properties,
or you can create multiple tags to be available for future use. In this lab, you will first create tags
and later assign them to the assets.
In this lab, you will create tags and assign them to CIH assets based on 4 regions North-East
region, North-West region, South-East region, and South-West region.

Scenario:
Robin, the regional officer wants to manage assets that only apply to their region. He will assign
tags to each of his organization's assets based on region, to identify them. Later, he will sort out
the assets based on his region.

Module 10: Permissions
Lab 10-1: Permissions
Overview:
Permissions determine the access rights that a user has for a Secure Agent, Secure Agent
group, connection, schedule, or asset. Permissions add additional or custom security for an
object.

Permissions define which users and groups can read, update, delete, execute, and change
permissions on an object.

Scenario:
James wants few users to have restricted access to the assets created in his organization. He
will accomplish this task by assigning the asset level permissions that IICS supports throughout
all the services (IICS services like Integration Hub, Data Integration, and so on).

Objectives:
 Create a User
 Assign permissions to the assets in the cloud and access them using the user
Duration:
20 minutes

Tasks
To create a user or assign permissions, the user must have admin privileges. And, the users
whose access you want to restrict, must not have the Admin privilege. Else, he will have access
to change his permissions. In this lab, you will create a new user and restrict his access. After
restricting his access, you will verify the same by logging into IICS with his credentials (the
restricted user’s credentials). Instead of creating a new user, you can also use any of the
existing users for the purpose of demonstration.
