If you are upgrading Workplace XT in an environment where
you have multiple instances of Workplace XT on
a single application server, use the procedure in Upgrading the Workplace XT software with the following modifications:
- In the step "Back up, undeploy, and remove the Workplace XT web application from the
J2EE application server":
- Make backup copies of all deployed instances of Workplace XT.
- Uninstall all deployed instances of Workplace XT.
- Delete the temp directory for all instances of Workplace XT.
- In the step for copying existing configuration files, copy
the web.xml files for each deployed instance
of Workplace XT, and give
the copy a descriptive name, such as web.xml.2.
- After the step for starting the upgrade process, do the
following:
- Back up the existing configuration files in install_path/FileNet/Config/WebClient2 and
all other instances.
- For each instance, copy the updated configuration files
in install_path/FileNet/Config/WebClient to install_path/FileNet/Config/WebClient2 and
any additional WebClient instances, and manually
add any custom changes from the old configuration files to the new
updated files.
- When you redeploy Workplace XT,
using the "Deploy IBM® FileNet® Workplace XT" topic appropriate for
your application server type, you must repackage the WAR/EAR files
for the additional instances of Workplace XT using
the modified web.xml files mentioned above. For
information, see Deploying multiple Workplace XT instances.
