Manta Flow IBM IGC Integration

Importing the Manta Meta Model (Bundle) into IGC

Manta Flow uses its own meta model in IBM Information Governance Catalog. This Manta Meta Model must be imported to IGC before loading any metadata from Manta Flow. This can be done via an IBM IGC REST API call, which can conveniently be done through the IBM IGC Swagger page. The URL for this operation is <Infosphere_url>/ibm/iis/igc-rest-explorer/#!/bundles/registerBundle. The Manta Meta Model itself is stored in the <MANTA_DIR_HOME>/scenarios/manta-dataflow-cli/model directory .

Updating WebSphere API Limits for Lineage Upload

The default limits configured for the WebSphere Application Services API may not be sufficient for loading data lineage into IGC. If you need to increase the maximum memory allocation or number of objects kept in memory, follow the instructions in Prepare Information Governance Catalog for use with IBM Industry Models to increase the limits.

It is also necessary to increase the session timeout as described in Changing timeout values to allow import of large files to InfoSphere Business Glossary or to InfoSphere Information Governance Catalog.
