IBM Content Navigator, Version 2.0.3 Supports: FileNet P8

Updating the Process Engine client connector files silently (FileNet P8)

You can install the Process Engine client connector files on the IBM® Content Navigator server by using a silent input text file and running the installation program from the command line.

Before you begin

Determine whether you need to upgrade the version of Process Engine on the IBM Content Navigator server:

Refer to your IBM FileNet® P8 Installation and Upgrade Worksheet that you completed when planning your IBM FileNet P8 system for information about the version of Process Engine that you are running:
1. In the worksheet file, verify that the Data > Filter > AutoFilter option is enabled.
2. To view the Process Engine information, select the PE Client (Windows) or PE Client (UNIX) filter in the Installation or Configuration Program column.
Use the IBM Content Navigator Ping page to determine which version of the Process Engine client connector files are installed with IBM Content Navigator. For more information, see Finding IBM Content Navigator version information.

Remember: If you are running IBM FileNet P8, Version 5.2 or later, you can skip this task. You can update the Content Platform Engine client connector files when you run the IBM Content Navigator Configuration and Deployment Tool.

About this task

Procedure

To update the Process Engine client connector files:

Log on to the IBM Content Navigator server with the IBM Content Navigator installer account.
Copy the Process Engine client installation software to a temporary directory on the IBM Content Navigator server.
Extract contents of the compressed Process Engine client installation software.
Important: The jre.tar file that is packaged with the Process Engine client installation software must be in the same directory as the Process Engine client installation program when you run the installation program.
Edit the peclient_silent_install.txt file by using the values from your IBM FileNet P8 Installation and Upgrade Worksheet

Start the installation program by running the following command:

Operating system	Command
AIX®	`version-P8PE-CLIENT-AIX.BIN -f peclient_silent_install.txt` For example, for `5.0.0-P8PE-CLIENT-AIX.BIN -f peclient_silent_install.txt`
Linux	`version-P8PE-CLIENT-LINUX.BIN -f peclient_silent_install.txt` For example, for `5.0.0-P8PE-CLIENT-LINUX.BIN -f peclient_silent_install.txt`
Linux for System z®	`version-P8PE-CLIENT-ZLINUX.BIN -f peclient_silent_install.txt` For example, for `5.0.0-P8PE-CLIENT-ZLINUX.BIN -f peclient_silent_install.txt`
Windows	`version-P8PE-CLIENT-WIN.EXE -f peclient_silent_install.txt` For example, for `5.0.0-P8PE-CLIENT-WIN.EXE -f peclient_silent_install.txt`

Important: Ensure that version of the installation program that you are running is correct for your environment. For more information, see the appropriate version of the Process Engine installation documentation or the readme file for the fix pack that you are installing.

If Process Engine is configured to use the IPv6 network protocol, locate the taskman.properties file and add the following lines to the file:
```
-Djava.net.preferIPv6Addresses=true
-Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=false
```

What to do next

After you update the Process Engine client connector files, you must:

Configure and deploy IBM Content Navigator, including:
1. Creating a configuration profile
2. Configuring the IBM Content Navigator web application
3. Updating your web application server for IBM Content Navigator components
4. Running the script to configure your database for IBM Content Navigator
5. Restarting the web application server where IBM Content Navigator is deployed
6. Verifying your IBM Content Navigator deployment
