Upgrading the latest Process Engine client files on Content Engine servers silently

You can upgrade the Process Engine Client software on the Content Engine server by using a silent input text file and running the upgrade program from the command line. Use the values in your installation and upgrade worksheet to edit the silent input text file before you run the upgrade.

Be sure that you have available the Installation and Upgrade Worksheet that was completed during your planning activities.

To install the Process Engine Client files silently:
  1. Open your completed Installation and Upgrade Worksheet file.
    Tip: In the worksheet file, verify that the Data > Filter > AutoFilter command is enabled. To view only Content Engine values, filter by PE Client Installer in the Installation or Configuration Program column.
  2. To download the latest software updates, and to determine which of these updates might be required for use with other components and expansion products, contact your service representative.
  3. On the machine where Content Engine is to be deployed, log on as ce_install_user.
  4. Access the Process Engine Client install software from the Process Engine installation software. The version of the install software must match the version of Process Engine.
  5. Expand the (TAR or ZIP) Process Engine Client install software.
  6. Shut down all instances of Enterprise Manager and any other Content Engine client applications, such as Application Engine.
  7. Edit the peclient_silent_install.txt file using the values from your Installation and Upgrade Worksheet.
  8. Save your edits.
  9. Run one of the commands in the following table to perform the silent install:
