Configure Hold Sweep

Before you can run Hold Sweep, you must configure it for the appropriate values. For example, you must specify the name of the Content Engine server that contains the records, and you can limit the sweep to just one file plan object store.

Important  If IBM Enterprise Records is deployed on IBM Websphere Application Server, any of the IBM Enterprise Records tools that rely upon JACE EJB transport protocol should use the JRE that comes with the same version Websphere Application Server or IBM Websphere Application Client. If IBM Enterprise Records is deployed on JBOSS or WebLogic Application Server, it is recommended that any of the IBM Enterprise Records tools that rely upon JACE EJB transport protocol use the JRE that comes with the same version application server.

You also must edit the JAVA_HOME environment variable in the appropriate application server section of the tool's BAT and SH file so the variable is pointing to the same JRE version as the application server where IBM Enterprise Records software is installed. For example, the Websphere Application Server entry might look like the following entry: set JAVA_HOME=%WS_DIR%/java.
