(includingIBM® FileNet® Enterprise Manager), Content Engine Upgrader, and IBM FileNet Deployment Manager.
Be sure that you have available the Installation and Upgrade
Worksheet that was filled out during your planning activities.
Important: You must keep one running version of Enterprise Manager version 3.5.2 until after
you upgrade the Content Engine data.
You must use Enterprise Manager version
3.5.2 to prepare your version 3.5.2 object stores for the Content Engine Upgrader tool.

your completed Installation and Upgrade Worksheet file.

Installer in the Installation or Configuration
Program column.
- Log on as ce_install_user to
the application server machine where you are going to install Content Engine software.
- Navigate
to the Content Engine software
package in the installation media.
- Edit the ce_silent_install.txt file
to reflect the installation choices in your worksheet.
