Executing Integration Manager Job Configurations
This topic describes how to execute an Integration Manager job configuration using the Integration Manager for DataConnect Configuration Read-only Editor.
Note:  This Read-only Editor uses temporary files (which have the tmp_ prefix and the .config file extension) that enable users to inspect and execute integrations. The temporary files are deleted when users finish viewing them. For more information, see Viewing Integration Manager Configurations.
When a job configuration which resides in the platform product is executed from the Read-only Editor, it executes on the Integration Manager for Actian Data Platform server. The Read-only Editor shows the execution status as it is running on the platform server. When the execution completes, users can view the log file. The Log status for the execution is shown in the Read-only Editor Configuration Jobs area.
Note:  To edit an integration, see Editing Integration Manager Integrations.
Prerequisites
One or more package (.djar) files. For information about creating a package (.djar) file for a project, see Creating a Package.
An Integration Manager connection to either a server hosting an Integration Manager installation, or to the Actian Data Platform. For more information, see Defining an Integration Manager Connection.
Note:  The Integration Manager instance must be running.
Integration Manager connections are configured in Preferences. For more information, see Setting Integration Manager Preferences.
To execute a job configuration using the Integration Manager Configuration Read-only Editor:
1. Navigate to the Integration Manager Explorer tab (to the right of the Repository Explorer tab).
2. Select the instance you wish to view from the Connections dropdown.
A list of Job Configurations for the instance are displayed.
Note:  For information about creating a package (.djar) file for a project, see Creating a Package.
3. Double-click a package (.djar) to select it.
Details for the job configuration, as well as files and macros associated with the selected package are displayed in a new tab. The label for the new tab is the package (.djar) name prepended with tmp_, and has the file extension .config. For example, a package named sales2024.djar will have the tab label tmp_ sales2024.config.
Use the file to inspect package details. The tmp_ prefix indicates that the job configuration resides in the Actian Data Platform Integration Manager for DataConnect. The Job Configuration details reflect their current state in the Actian Data Platform Integration Manager. The .config files are deleted when the tab is closed.
4. Click to execute the job configuration.
