pmrep是Informatica自带的workflow管理控制工具，它主要是对元数据进行操作，比如知识库用户、组、密码的管理，权限管理和数据库连接串的管理，元数据的备份导入导出等等。另外它还可以创建、修改、删除文件夹。它跟pmcmd命令一样都是经常会用到的workflow管理控制工具，关于pmcmd命令的介绍，可以参见之前的文章《Informatica中命令调用workflow的工具pmcmd使用方法》。
pmrep命令我们一般用的最多的是它的导入和导出功能，本文主要对这两个命令介绍下。导入和导出功能可以让用户将元数据导出至其它业务智能工具或从其它业务智能工具导入元数据，例如 Cognos Report Net 和 Business Object。
导入命令格式：
Usage: objectimport
-i
-c
[-l ]
[-p (retain persistent value)]
相关参数解释：
1、-i input_xml_file_name，要导入的object(通常是xml格式)文件名称。
2、-c control_file_name，控制文件名。
3、-l log_file_name ，日志文件名称。
导入命令示例：
导出命令格式：
Usage: objectexport
{{-n
-o
[-t ]
[-v ]
[-f ]} |
-i }
[-m (export pk-fk dependency)]
[-s (export objects referred by shortcut)]
[-b (export non-reusable dependents)]
[-r (export reusable dependents)]
-u
[-l ]
相关参数解释：
1、-n object_name，需要导出的workflow名称。
2、-o object_type，导出的object类型，可以是”workflow”。
3、-f folder_name ，需要导出的workflow的存放文件夹。
4、-s -b -r:这三个参数可以使导出的workflow中包含所有map的信息。
5、-u xml_output_file_name，要导出的workflow保存文件名。
导入命令示例：
以上就是pmrep导出和导入的简单命令介绍，下面附上pmrep语法规范：
