Restart an Informatica Workflow

You can restart a failed workflow or its instance from the point of failure or from the beginning in recovery mode. For example, if a workflow is terminated abnormally, you can restart the workflow.

Notes:

• If you specified a workflow instance on the Basic page of the job definition, only the specified workflow instance is restarted.
• Due to a known issue in Informatica, workflow instances cannot be restarted in parallel.
• If recovery mode is not set for a workflow or a session, the workflow starts normally.

Follow these steps:

1. Right-click the Informatica job in the Monitor perspective.

   A list of job commands appears.

2. Select Restart Workflow.

   The Restart Workflow dialog opens.

3. (Optional) Click the arrow search button next to the Session Task field to select a session task that you want to restart the workflow from.

   Note: To restart a workflow or its instance from a point of failure, select a session task. If a session task is not selected, the workflow is restarted from the beginning in recovery mode.

4. Click Restart.

   The server restarts the specified workflow or its instance in recovery mode from the specified session task or from the beginning.
