Before you can begin using IBM® InfoSphere™ Enterprise Records after upgrading the software,
you must configure the Process Region for InfoSphere Enterprise
Records, restart Component Manager,
and verify that the settings for FileNet® Records
Manager V3.7, V4.0, or V4.5 are
still in place.
- After the Component Manager starts, the list of available component
queues displays and indicates whether the queues started correctly.
- If the queues do not start, verify the account information specified
on the Advanced tab of the Component Manager
is correct.
To configure a process region:
- To access the worksheet file, p8_worksheet.xls,
that contains the parameter values to specify in the InfoSphere Enterprise
Records installation, see Using the installation and upgrade worksheet section. In the worksheet file, verify
that the command is enabled.
- Set the minimum and maximum heap size for Destroy Disposition
Sweeps
To avoid out-of-memory errors while running Destroy
Disposition sweep, increase the heap size of the Application Engine Component Manager to 1GB.
