The Repository Manager is a secure application that gives the repository administrator access to all repository servers and allows secure management of repositories, imported data, and data source connections. It has a separate user interface and requires an administrative ID and password—set during installation—to log on.
The administrator also uses the Repository Manager to set up user profiles and to create loader connections for data sources.
Administrators can also add and manage repositories and loader (data) connections in the Administration Center browser-based application.
Note: To create HDFS delimited loader (data) connections for profiling data on a Hadoop edge node, you must add the connection in the Administration Center. This type of connection is not supported in the Repository Manager. For more information, see the Administration Center help, available from the Administration Center application.
