FileNet P8 Content Engine, Version 5.0.+              

Generating the configuration XML files for a Content Engine instance

The configuration XML files contain the properties and values for the various configuration tasks. From the command line, you can generate all of the XML files at the same time, or you can generate a single configuration XML file at a time.

The following table lists the configuration XML files that you need to generate to configure a new Content Engine instance.

Table 1. Configuration XML files
File Name Description
applicationserver.xml Settings for the application server, including the location of the application server software and the name of the server. This file is generated when any other configuration file is generated (either all at the same time or individually) and is used by all of the configuration tasks. If you generate the files one at a time, this file is created only once.
configurebootstrap.xml Settings for creating the Global Configuration Data (GCD) and starting Content Engine.

configurejdbcgcd.xml

configurejdbcgos.xml

configurejdbcos.n.xml , where n is an integer starting with 2

Settings for configuring JDBC connections to the databases used by Content Engine. You must generate, edit, and run the configure the JDBC task once for the data sources for the Global Configuration Data (GCD) and then again for the data sources for each object store. For information about creating the additional data sources for the object store, see Creating the data sources by using the command line.

If you generate a second JDBC configuration file, then it is named configurejdbc.2.xml. The file name increments for each new file that you generate.

configureldap.xml

configureldap.n.xml , where n is an integer starting with 2

Settings for connecting to and searching within a directory server. If your site uses multiple LDAP providers, you can generate an additional file for each provider. If you generate a second LDAP configuration file, then it is named configureldap.2.xml. The file name increments for each new file that you generate.

configureloginmodules.xml Settings for creating the application server login modules for Content Engine.

You must eventually generate each of the required configuration XML files to configure a Content Engine instance.
