working with PMCMD COMMAND USAGE IN INFORMATICA and How to run workflow in unix?

Informatica provides four built-in command line programs or utilities to interact with the informatica features. They are:

• infacmd
• infasetup
• pmcmd
• pmrep

The pmcmd is a command line utility provided by the informatica to perform the following tasks.

• Start workflows.
• Start workflow from a specific task.
• Stop, Abort workflows and Sessions.
• Schedule the workflows.

How to use PMCMD Command in Informatica:
1. Scheduling the workflow 
The pmcmd command syntax for scheduling the workflow is shown below:

pmcmd scheduleworkflow -service informatica-integration-Service -d domain-name -u user-name -p password -f folder-name -w workflow-name

You cannot specify the scheduling options here. This command just schedules the workflow for the next run.
2. Start workflow 
The following pmcmd command starts the specified workflow:

pmcmd startworkflow -service informatica-integration-Service -d domain-name -u user-name -p password -f folder-name -w workflow-name

3. Stop workflow 
Pmcmd command to stop the infromatica workflow is shown below:

pmcmd stopworkflow -service informatica-integration-Service -d domain-name -u user-name -p password -f folder-name -w workflow-name

4. Start workflow from a task 
You can start the workflow from a specified task. This is shown below:

pmcmd startask -service informatica-integration-Service -d domain-name -u user-name -p password -f folder-name -w workflow-name -startfrom task-name

5. Stopping a task. 
The following pmcmd command stops the specified task instance:

pmcmd stoptask -service informatica-integration-Service -d domain-name -u user-name -p password -f folder-name -w workflow-name task-name

6. Aborting workflow and task. 
The following pmcmd commands are used to abort workflow and task in a workflow:

pmcmd abortworkflow -service informatica-integration-Service -d domain-name -u user-name -p password -f folder-name -w workflow-name

pmcmd aborttask -service informatica-integration-Service -d domain-name -u user-name -p password -f folder-name -w workflow-name task-name

Running workflow in UNIX? 


Syntax: pmcmd startworkflow -sv <service name> -d <domain
name> -u <user name> -p <password> -f <folder name>
<workflow name>
Example
Pmcmd start workflow –service
${INFA_SERVICE} -domain 
${INFA_DOMAIN} -uv xxx_PMCMD_ID -pv PSWD -folder  
${ETLFolder} -wait ${ETLWorkflow}
