Upgrading an IBM CMIS deployment by using the command-line interface

You can use the command-line interface to upgrade an IBM® CMIS deployment.

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 CMIS deployment in your environment, you must complete this task for each deployed instance of IBM CMIS.
When you run the commands in this task:

Procedure

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

  1. Update your existing profile by running the generateConfig command with the following syntax: The parameters that you specify depend on the types of IBM CMIS web application that you are configuring:
    • The following parameters are specific to IBM CMIS for Content Manager:
      • db
    • The following parameters are specific to IBM CMIS for FileNet® Content Manager:
      • ldap_Repository
      • ldap

    The generateConfig command creates the configuration XML files in the profile directory that you specify in the -profile argument. The configuration XML files contain the properties that you must specify for each configuration task.

    Important: Do not enter line breaks in the command.
    Tip: To see the status of the command through a page, append | more to the end of the command.
    To generate all of the XML files for an IBM CMIS web application, enter:
    configmgr_cl generateConfig -appserver app_server_type
    -appserverVersion app_server_version -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 
    -configure_CMIS_CMOD yes_or_no -db db_type -icn_sso value
    -deploy deploy_type -ldap_Repository repository_type -ldap 
    ldap_provider -profile fully_qualified_path_of_a_profile_directory
    To generate the configuration XML files for an IBM CMIS for Content Manager web application, enter:
    configmgr_cl generateConfig -appserver websphere -appserverVersion 8.5 
    -configure_CMIS_CM yes -db db2 -icn_sso none -deploy standard 
    -profile C:\Program Files\IBM\ECMClient\configure\profiles\myProfile\ 
  2. IBM FileNet P8 users only.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
  3. 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
  4. 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
