Saving Component Manager custom settings for CE_Operations (upgrades from V5.1 or earlier)

Save Component Manager custom settings for CE_Operations in each isolated region before you upgrade. You need to restore the settings after the upgrade is complete.

About this task

Before you upgrade FileNet® P8 from version 5.1 or earlier, you must make note of the logon and password for the adapter. If you extended the CE_Operations queue with exposed fields or database indexes, you must also save these custom settings before you upgrade. You must manually restore these settings and values after the upgrades of the Content Platform Engine software and the Process Engine database are complete.
Important: Other customizations or extensions to the CE_Operations component queue are not supported. These customizations might cause the Process Engine database upgrade to fail. Contact IBM Support for assistance before you proceed with the upgrade if the CE_Operations queue has customizations other than exposed fields or database indexes.

You can use Administration Console for Content Platform Engine if it is available or the Process Configuration Console in Workplace or Workplace XT to save the CE_Operations settings. The console that you select is used to configure the queue, but that does not imply that the component queue runs in Content Platform Engine or Workplace.

Procedure

To save the Component Manager custom settings for CE_Operations:

  1. Start Process Configuration Console by using Workplace or Workplace XT:
    Table 1. Starting Process Configuration Console
    Option Select
    Workplace Select Admin > Process Configuration Console.
    Workplace XT Select Tools > Administration > Process Configuration Console
  2. Save the custom settings for the CE_Operations queue in each isolated region:
    1. Go to an isolated region node and choose Export to XML from the Action menu.
    2. In the Export window, click Browse and specify a file name and location on your local drive or network for the exported data.
      Tip: Use the XML file extension for the file name.
    3. Choose the export type Export selected components and select the CE_Operations queue from the Component Queues. Then click Next.
    4. On the Summary page, confirm that the export contains only the CE_Operations queue, and then click Finish to complete the export.
    5. Repeat the preceding substeps for the other isolated regions.
  3. Save the adapter settings for the CE_Operations queue in each isolated region:
    1. Go in Process Configuration Console for an isolated region to the isolated region node > Component Queues > CE_Operations.
    2. Right-click the CE_Operations node and choose Properties to view its properties.
    3. Open the Adapter tab and make note of the JAAS Credentials settings; you need it later in the upgrade process.
    4. Repeat the preceding substeps for the other isolated regions.
