How to Integrate Assure or ER with Data360 DQ+

To integrate Assure or ER with DQ+, we need to create an Application id in DQ+. Once the ID has been created we need to modify IA.properties under {Infogix_Assure_install_Home}/config/{Config.name}/IA/.

Note: The instructions below  same steps to Integrate ER with DQ+. For ER you have to modify ER.properties instead of IA.properties. You may use same Application ID for both IA & ER.

Initial Setup

1. Within Data360 DQ+, Create an Application User.

Modify IA.properties or ER.properties

You will need to modify IA.properties for Assure installations and/or ER.properties for ER installations. The same instructions below apply to both property files.

1. IA.properties file are found in the following directory:
   

   {Infogix_IA_install_home}\config\{IA_config_name}\IA\IA.properties

   and ER.properties are found in the following directory:
   

   {Infogix_ER_install_home}\config\{ER_config_name}\ER\ER.properties

2. Open the property file in a text editor and modify following properties with your DQ+ installation information:
   

   ################################################################################
   # properties for Data3Sixty Analysis/Validate/Case Management (Cafe) integration
   ################################################################################ 
   # comma separated list of email addresses to notify of a Sagacity push failure.
   SAGACITY_PUSH_FAILURE_EMAILS= 
   CAFE_GATEWAY_ENABLED=true
   # Cafe deployment mode [cloud]
   CAFE_DEPLOYMENT_MODE=enterprise
   # The url to cafe.
   CAFE_URL=http://sampleurl.infogix.com
   # The user name to use when communicating with cafe.
   CAFE_USER_NAME=sampleemailaddress@infogix.com
   # The password to use when communicating with cafe.
   CAFE_USER_PASSWORD={password_removed}
   # The cafe environment. This must be the name of an environment defined in Cafe.
   # Solution deployments that may use the same entities across multiple deployments
   # must use different environments if they are pointing to the same instance
   # of Cafe. For example, if there are three instances of Assure pointing to the
   # same Cafe instance and if both could have the same control entities in them
   # (by export/import), then each of these assure instances must push to a different
   # environment in that Cafe instance, such as Dev, Test, and Prod.
   CAFE_ENVIRONMENT=Pilot1_Assure_ENV
   # A unique id that identifies this solution instance. The same id must be used across
   # all environments dev, test, production etc. For example, if you deploy separate
   # Assure systems for different lines of business, and they will both use the same
   # Cafe/Sagacity system, use different unique IDs for each Assure line of business
   # installation.
   CAFE_SOLUTION_UNIQUE_ID=${solution.short.name}
   # Flag to indicate if definitions should be pushed.
   # Usually, only the dev environment will push definitions. It is assumed that test/QA and
   # prod environments will not push definitions but instead would rely on the Cafe promotion
   # mechanism to promote the pushed definitions from dev to test/QA and prod environments.
   CAFE_PUSH_DEFINITIONS=true

3. Save and exit from above file and redeploy the Assure and/or ER Application. A
   

Verify the communication with DQ+

To verify the communication after above changes, go to your script home directory.

For Assure, that location is:

{Infogix_IA_install_home}\server-util\{IA_config_name}\IA\

For ER, that location is:

{Infogix_ER_install_home}\server-util\{ER_config_name}\ER\

And execute the cafeDefs script. The output should look like the following:

[websph1@pilot1 IA]$ /opt/Platform9.2/Infogix/server-util/IA/IA/cafeDefs.sh
java version "1.8.0_111"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_111-b14)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.111-b14, mixed mode)

Establishing all datastore definitions and pushing them to Data360.
Established 32 datastore definitions for Data360.

In DQ+ Pipelines, you will notice the Incoming icon which indicates Assure were able to make communication:
