Question

I have 2 workflows workflow 1 in Integration service 1 and workflow 2 integration service 2. How do I call workflow 2 from workflow 1 I am currently trying to call then using command prompt but it didn't work Just to let you know these integration servicce 1 is informatica 9.2 and integration service 2 is informatica version 10.2

Answer 1

PowerCenter does not provide suppor for cross-workflows dependencies. Regardless of whether these are configured to use same or a different Integration Service.

The best way to solve this kind of challenges is to use separate scheduling tool, such as AirFlow, Control-M, Autosys - or any other.

It is also possible to expose the workflow as a webservice and call it from different workflows, if needed. Not really convenitent, but possible.

Lastly, it's possible to use command line interface pmcmd startworkflow in a command task of one workflow to have the other one started.

Answer 2

I have done something similar this way:

1. The other WF is a web service one/ or is executed along a web service.
2. Add an application connection.
3. The WSH where your WF runs should be the endpoint of that connection.
4. Add this WF inside the mapping of the other one as a Web Service transformation.
