Content Platform Engine, Version 5.2.1              

Installing EMC Centera SDK library files

EMC Centera SDK library files enable communication between the FileNet® P8 environment and the EMC Centera fixed content devices.

Procedure

To install EMC Centera SDK library files:

  1. Log on to the Content Platform Engine Server machine as cpe_install_user.
  2. Back up or delete any existing EMC Centera SDK library files, which, by default, are located in the Default Destination Installation Location indicated in the following table:
    Table 1. Destination installation location
    Operating System Default Destination Installation Location
    AIX® /usr/local/Centera_SDK
    Solaris /opt/Centera_SDK
    Windows C:\Centera_SDK
    Linux /usr/local/Centera_SDK
    HP-UX, HP-UXi /opt/Centera_SDK
  3. The Centera directory in the Content Platform Engine software package contains the EMC Centera SDK installation files. As shown in the following table, copy the appropriate directory to a location on the Content Platform Engine Server machine, such as /tmp (AIX, Solaris, HPUX, HPUXi, or Linux) or C:\Temp (Windows).
    Table 2. Directory to be copied
    Operating System Directory To Be Copied
    AIX, Solaris, Windows, HPUX, HPUXi, Copy the entire Centera directory
    Linux Depending on the libstdc++ compatibility on Linux, copy one of the following directories: Start of change
    • Centera/gcc3.3 (libstdc++ 5 compatible)
    • Centera/gcc4 (libstdc++ 6 compatible)
    End of change
  4. On the Content Platform Engine Server machine, navigate within the Centera directory (at its copied location) to the install subdirectory, which contains the installer script.
  5. Run the installer script corresponding to the operating system on the Content Platform Engine Server machine. On Windows, specify the installation directory, such as C:\Centera_SDK, at a command prompt. On all other operating systems, the installer script will prompt you for the installation directory.
    Table 3. Installer script
    Operating System Script
    AIX, Solaris, HPUX, HPUXi, Linux install.sh
    Windows install.bat C:\Centera_SDK
  6. The installer script creates 64-bit library directories, and puts them in a default installation directory, depending on your operating system (as shown in the following table). Accept or change the default when prompted by the script.
    Table 4. 64-bit library directory default installation directories
    Operating System Subdirectories of extracted EMC Centera SDK Directory Description
    AIX, Solaris, HPUX, HPUXi, and Windows lib lib has the native library files that are to be installed.
    Linux ../gcc3.3/lib

    ../gcc4/lib
