This can be handled by using the file list in informatica.
If we have 5 files in different locations on the server and
we need to load in to single target table.In session
properties we need to change the file type as Indirect.
am taking a notepad and giving following paths and file
names in this notepad and saving this notepad as
emp_source.txt in the directory /ftp_data/webrep/
/ftp_data/webrep/SrcFiles/abc.txt
/ftp_data/webrep/bcd.txt
/ftp_data/webrep/srcfilesforsessions/xyz.txt
/ftp_data/webrep/SrcFiles/uvw.txt
/ftp_data/webrep/pqr.txt
In session properties i give /ftp_data/webrep/ in the
directory path and file name as emp_source.txt and file type
as Indirect.

To load 5 differnt files of same format .first creat a
directory in Unix and copy all the file into this directory
and using the option as Indirect load in session properties
give the loaction of unix in source and it will enable to
load all the 5 files in single run in to a target . if we
have 5 diff files in 5 different formats then firstly
convert all in to one format and then proceed as explained
aboue.

Answer / arnab
Use Union transformation , if you do not want to use Union
and if your informatica runs on Unix , then create a shell
script to concatenate these files and create a single
file , you can call this shell script before you call the
session in the workflow
If you use windows create and dos batch script and do the
same as above

Issue with Update override at Target table in Informatica.
how lookup transformation is made active in new versions... When to use connected and when to use unconnected lookup and why? which is good for session performance. How to make lookup persistent and how to remove stale data from that lookup. how commit works - when we stop or abort data. Explain in both cases. What is factless fact table and have you ever used it in real time scenarios.
I am having a FLAT FILE SOURCE as first line: 1000,null,null,null second line as:null,2000,null,null 3rd line as :null,null,3000,null and final line as: null,null,null,4000 ............................Now i want the OUTPUT as 1000,2000,3000,4000 to a FLAT FILE only.For more clarification i want to elimate nulls and want in a single line. Please help me out
Please let me know how we can implement the below scenario. In a single mapping,more than 500 sources (legacy,VSAM,relational) will be loading into only one target. Whenever I retreive the data(any record) from target, i need to find the details that the record belongs to which source. Thanks in advance..

Tell me about your experience in informatica? what is best mark you can give yourself? How to answer this question?
Hi, What is exactly node ? what is exactly domain ? How loadbalancer will work ? what is Integration service (IS) ? Can anyone give me exact scenario when I click on start workflow in the workflow manager ? (Note : I am not expecting answer like, node means logical representation of a machine and domain will contain multiple nodes .I gone through Informatica help but I couldn’t understand. I am expecting exactly what is happening in background detailed explanation or Pictorial representation will be highly appreciation ) Advance thanks
