The installation wizard provides an interactive way to
install the Content Engine Client
files. You can use the values from your worksheet to fill in the required
value for each field on the wizard screens.
To install the Content Engine Client
files:
- Open your completed Installation and Upgrade Worksheet file.
Tip: In the worksheet file, verify that the command is enabled. To view only Content Engine Client values, filter by CE
Client Installer in the Installation or Configuration
Program column.
- To download the latest software updates, and to determine
which of these updates might be required for use with other components
and expansion products, see the IBM® FileNet® P8 Compatibility Matrix.
- Log on to the server where Workplace XT is installed as any user
who has the following permissions:
- Read and write permission to a temporary directory, such as temp for Windows or tmp UNIX, on the machine where Workplace XT is installed.
- Execute permission on the Content Engine Client
install software.
- Copy the Content Engine Client
installation software from the Content Engine installation
directory to the temporary directory. The version of the installation
software must match the version of Content Engine.
- Expand the TAR or ZIP of the Content Engine Client installation software
within the temporary directory.
- Access the Content Engine client
installation software.
- Run the command for your operating system. CE_version is
the version of your Content Engine,
for example, 4.5.1.

- Complete the installation program screens using the parameters
you collected in the Installation and Upgrade Worksheet.
You can specify on the installation panels which applications
you want to update. If the installation program does not automatically
detect Workplace XT, select
it on the appropriate panel.
You can also choose to have the
installation program create the deployment file, or create the file
later. If you have additional configuration to perform, you can defer
the file creation to avoid running multiple processes to create the
same file.
