Deploying a second instance of Workplace

Each deployment of Workplace might use different Site Preference settings and might provide access to different object stores.

About this task

To deploy a second instance of the Workplace application:

Procedure

  1. Make a copy of the /FileNet/Config/AE directory, including all of its contents, for each instance you plan to deploy. For example, if you are deploying two instances, you would create:

    install_path/FileNet/Config/AE1

    install_path/FileNet/Config/AE2

  2. Make copies of the upload and download directories in the install_path/FileNet/AE directory. For example, you would create:

    install_path/FileNet/AE/Download1

    install_path/FileNet/AE/Upload1

    install_path/FileNet/AE/Download2

    install_path/FileNet/AE/Upload2

  3. Make a copy of the deploy directory and all of its contents for each Workplace instance. For example, you would create:

    install_path/FileNet/AE/deploy1

    install_path/FileNet/AE/deploy2

  4. Make a copy the Workplace directory and all of its contents for each Workplace instance. For example, you would create:

    install_path/FileNet/AE/Workplace1

    install_path/FileNet/AE/Workplace2

  5. Navigate to each custom copied Workplace web.xml instance and update the path for the configuration directory, upload directory, and download directory locations.
    For example, in the install_path/FileNet/AE/Workplace1/WEB-INF/web.xml, you would make the following changes:
     <context-param>
     	<param-name>configurationDirectory</param-name>
    	<param-value>/opt/FileNet/Config/AE1</param-value>
    </context-param>
    
     <context-param>
    	<param-name>uploadDir</param-name>
    	<param-value>/opt/FileNet/AE/Upload1</param-value>
    </context-param>
    <context-param>
     	<param-name>downloadDir</param-name>
    	<param-value>/opt/FileNet/AE/Download1</param-value>
    </context-param>
  6. (For JBoss Application Server 5.0.1 only) Navigate to each custom copied Workplace jboss-classloading.xml instance and update the path for the name and domain. For example, in the install_path/FileNet/AE/Workplace1/WEB-INF/jboss-classloading.xml, make the following changes to the name and domain values:
    <classloading xmlns="urn:jboss:classloading:1.0"
    		name="Workplace1.war"
    		domain="Workplace1.war"
    		export-all="NON_EMPTY"
    		import-all="false">
    </classloading>
