IBM Content Navigator, Version 2.0.3 Supports: Content Manager, FileNet P8, OnDemand, OASIS CMIS

Rebuilding and redeploying the IBM Content Navigator web application by using the command-line interface

You can use the command-line interface to rebuild and redeploy the IBM® Content Navigator web application.

Before you begin

It is strongly recommended that you use the Installation and configuration worksheets to record the values that you use in your existing profiles. The worksheets make it easier for you to ensure that your profiles contain the correct information after you update them.

About this task

Remember: If you have more than one IBM Content Navigator deployment in your environment, you must complete this task for each deployed instance of IBM Content Navigator.

When you run the commands in this task:

Do not include any line breaks in your commands
Append | more to the end of the command if you want to see the status of the command through a pager
Refer to the command-line reference for a list of the supported values for each parameter. For more information, see IBM Content Navigator Configuration and Deployment Tool command-line reference.

Procedure

To rebuild and redeploy the web application after you upgrade IBM Content Navigator:

Update your existing profile by running the generateConfig command with the following syntax:

configmgr_cl generateConfig -appserver app_server_type -configure_FileNetP8 
yes_or_no -configure_CMIS_FileNetP8 yes_or_no -configure_CM yes_or_no 
-configure_CMIS_CM yes_or_no -configure_CMOD yes_or_no -db db_type 
-deploy deploy_type -ldap_Repository repository_type -ldap ldap_provider 
-profile fully_qualified_path_of_the_existing_ profile_directory

When you run the generateConfig command against your existing profile directory, any new XML files that were introduced in the new release are added to the existing profile. In addition, any XML files that were updated in the release are also modified to include the updates.

Edit the configurejdbcecm.xml file for your environment. In previous releases of IBM Content Navigator, the data source and the database were configured in separate tasks. Starting with IBM Content Navigator, Version 2.0.3, the tasks are combined into the configurejdbcecm task.

Run the configurejdbcecm task by running the following command:

configmgr_cl execute -task configurejdbcecm -profile 
fully_qualified_path_of_the_existing_ profile_directory

Optional: If you want to use the task manager component, edit the configuretmtask.xml file for your environment.

Run the configuretmtask task by running the following command:

configmgr_cl execute -task configuretmtask -profile 
fully_qualified_path_of_the_existing_ profile_directory

Edit the configureicntask.xml file for your environment.

Run the configureicntask task by running the following command:

configmgr_cl execute -task configureicntask -profile 
fully_qualified_path_of_the_existing_ profile_directory

If you upgraded your Content Engine or Content Platform Engine installation, run the downloadcejarstask task. This task ensures that IBM Content Navigator is running the same version of the client files as your Content Engine or Content Platform Engine server.
Run the following command:
```
configmgr_cl execute -task downloadcdjarstask -profile 
fully_qualified_path_of_the_existing_ profile_directory
```

Rebuild the IBM Content Navigator application EAR file by running the following command:

configmgr_cl execute -task rebuildear -profile 
fully_qualified_path_of_the_existing_ profile_directory

Deploy the IBM Content Navigator application EAR file by running the following command:

configmgr_cl execute -task deployapplication -profile 
fully_qualified_path_of_the_existing_ profile_directory

What to do next

After you redeploy IBM Content Navigator, you must complete the following tasks:

Map IBM Content Navigator components to IBM HTTP Server (WebSphere® Application Server Network Deployment)
Update your database configuration for IBM Content Navigator
Restart the web application server where IBM Content Navigator is deployed
Verify your IBM Content Navigator deployment
