General Notes

  • IBM Sterling Transformation Extender Launcher Container must be installed and configured with the appropriate permissions provided to any users who will be deploying and executing maps from a Pack.
  • The selected Pack (Healthcare, Supply Chain, Financial Payments, SAP), version for ITX 11.0.2 for the Launcher Server container must be installed on a Windows machine with existing Transformation Extender 11.0.3 Design Studio installed.
  • The container runs on a UNIX-based system. Text input files (such as .txt or .in flat files) that use Windows-style line endings (CR/LF) may require conversion to UNIX line endings (LF) before or during file transfer. However, some file standards or protocols may explicitly require CR/LF line endings, and those specifications should be followed. Similarly, any paths within maps that are part of the Pack, or that you implement with components of a path, need to use the UNIX expected slash (/) instead of backslash (\) in paths to data files in input or output cards.
  • All executable maps must be built for the Linux platform. Maps called directly should keep the .lnx extension used by ITX Design Studio map compiler. Maps called from the RUN mapping function need to be named as indicated in the map rule where they are called (see the individual pack tips for details).
