FileNet P8 Case Analyzer, Version 5.2.1              

Creating data sources for Case Analyzer databases

You must create JDBC data sources for each database that Case Analyzer uses if the Case Analyzer store is not in the same database as the object store. Otherwise, Case Analyzer can use the existing data sources for the object store and you can skip this topic. Content Platform Engine and the caupgrade tool use this data source information to connect to and update the database.

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

To configure the JDBC settings for Case Analyzer databases:

  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 Platform Engine values, filter by CM:Configure Object Store JDBC Data Sources (object store 1). in the Installation or Configuration Program column.
  2. If your configuration profile is not open in Configuration Manager, open it by selecting File > Open and navigating to your profilename.cfgp file.
  3. Create a task for the Case Analyzer JDBC data source.
    Tip: If the Case Analyzer database data sources you are creating share common information such as database server and port, you can copy an existing Configure Object Store JDBC Data Sources task and edit it instead of entering the information again.
    1. Right-click any task name in the profile pane, such as Configure Object Store JDBC Data Sources, and select Add New Task > Configure JDBC Data Sources. The New_Configure JDBC Data Sources task is added to the profile.
    2. Right-click New_Configure JDBC Data Sources, and select Rename Task.
    3. Enter a useful name for the task, such as Configure Case Analyzer database 2 JDBC Data Sources.
    4. Click OK.
  4. Right-click the Configure Case Analyzer database 2 JDBC Data Sources task in the profile pane, and select Edit Selected Task.
  5. Enter the property values for the JDBC data sources that are appropriate for the database.
  6. Select File > Save to save your changes.
  7. Optional: WebSphere® and WebLogic only. Click Test Database Connection to test the connection to the database by using the database user name, database server name, database name, port number, and password that you provided. The test does not create the data sources.
  8. Ensure that the task is enabled. When the task is disabled, the task name includes the text (disabled). To enable the task, right-click Configure Case Analyzer 2 JDBC Data Sources (disabled) in the profile pane, and choose Enable Selected Task from the context menu.
  9. Apply the JDBC property settings by right-clicking Configure database 2 JDBC Data Sources in the profile pane, and selecting Run Task. Running the configuration task can take a few minutes. The task execution status messages are displayed in the Console pane below the bootstrap properties.
  10. (JBoss only) Start the application server instance.
  11. Repeat this procedure to add the data sources for each Case Analyzer database in your environment.
