About this task

The setup for Content as a Service pages comprises both resources that are shared across virtual portals and virtual portal scoped resources.

Procedure

  1. Change the directory to the wp_profile_root/ConfigEngine directory.
  2. Run the following command to initiate the setup of shared resources:
    • AIX® HP-UX Linux Solaris : ./ConfigEngine.sh install-caas -DPortalAdminID=user_id -DPortalAdminPwd=password -DWasUserid=user_id -DWasPassword=password
    • IBM i: ConfigEngine.sh install-caas -DPortalAdminID=user_id -DPortalAdminPwd=password -DWasUserid=user_id -DWasPassword=password
    • Windows: ConfigEngine.bat install-caas -DPortalAdminID=user_id -DPortalAdminPwd=password -DWasUserid=user_id -DWasPassword=password
  3. Run the following command to initiate the setup of default virtual portal scoped resources:
    • AIX HP-UX Linux Solaris : ./ConfigEngine.sh install-caas-vp -DPortalAdminID=user_id -DPortalAdminPwd=password -DWasUserid=user_id -DWasPassword=password
    • IBM i: ConfigEngine.sh install-caas-vp -DPortalAdminID=user_id -DPortalAdminPwd=password -DWasUserid=user_id -DWasPassword=password
    • Windows: ConfigEngine.bat install-caas-vp -DPortalAdminID=user_id -DPortalAdminPwd=password -DWasUserid=user_id -DWasPassword=password
  4. If you have virtual portals, run the following command on each virtual portals to initiate the setup of virtual portal scoped resources:
    Note: Add either the -DVirtualPortalContext or -DVirtualPortalHost parameter to the install-caas-vp.
    • AIX HP-UX Linux Solaris : ./ConfigEngine.sh install-caas-vp -DPortalAdminId=user_id -DPortalAdminPwd=password -DWasUserid=user_id -DWasPassword=password -DVirtualPortalContext=virtual_portal_context
    • IBM i: ConfigEngine.sh install-caas-vp -DPortalAdminId=user_id -DPortalAdminPwd=password -DWasUserid=user_id -DWasPassword=password -DVirtualPortalContext=virtual_portal_context
    • Windows: ConfigEngine.bat install-caas-vp -DPortalAdminId=user_id -DPortalAdminPwd=password -DWasUserid=user_id -DWasPassword=password -DVirtualPortalContext=virtual_portal_context
  5. Restart your portal server.
