Question

Is there a way to search all the mappings, sessions, etc. in Informatica for a text string contained within a SQL override?

For example, suppose I know a certain stored procedure (SP_FOO) is being called somewhere in an INFA process, but I don’t know where exactly. Somewhere I think there is a Post SQL on a source or target calling it. Could I search all the sessions for Post SQL containing SP_FOO ? (Similar to what I could do with grep with source code.)

You can use Repository queries for querying REPO tables(if you have enough access) to get data related with all the mappings,transformations,sessions etc.

Please use the below link to get almost all kind of repo queries.Ur answers can be find in the below link.

select *--distinct sbj.SUBJECT_AREA,m.PARENT_MAPPING_NAME
from REP_SUBJECT sbj,REP_ALL_MAPPINGS m,REP_WIDGET_INST w,REP_WIDGET_ATTR wa
where sbj.SUBJECT_ID = m.SUBJECT_ID AND
m.MAPPING_ID = w.MAPPING_ID AND
w.WIDGET_ID = wa.WIDGET_ID
and sbj.SUBJECT_AREA in ('TLR','PPM_PNLST_WEB','PPM_CURRENCY','OLA','ODS','MMS','IT_METRIC','E_CONSENT','EDW','EDD','EDC','ABS')
and (UPPER(ATTR_VALUE)  like '%PSA_CONTACT_EVENT%'
--  or UPPER(ATTR_VALUE)  like '%PSA_MEMBER_CHARACTERISTIC%'
 -- or UPPER(ATTR_VALUE)  like '%PSA_REPORTING_HH_CHRSTC%'
--  or UPPER(ATTR_VALUE)  like '%PSA_REPORTING_MEMBER_CHRSTC%'
     )
--and m.PARENT_MAPPING_NAME like '%ARM%'
order by 1
