RE: Use VSAM file as Target in Informatica
I believe (although not 100% sure) that this is possible. Several years back in one of the projects we had used a tool called STRIVA which could directly read/write in the form of VSAM files. Lately Informatica bought the STRIVA tool and added in the PowerConnect engine. However, this module does not come default with Informatica PowerCenter and has to be bought separately.
