To set up IBM®
FileNet® CFS for Content Integrator, you must configure communication
between Content Platform Engine and the IBM Content Integrator external repositories, map the Content Platform Engine properties to the properties of the external repositories, and
define rules to specify which documents to federate from the external repositories.
Procedure
To set up IBM
FileNet CFS for Content Integrator:
- Start the content federation system.
- Create JDBC data sources in
the Content Platform Engine application server to connect to the
Federator database. Use the Configure Object Store JDBC Data Sources task in Configuration Manager to create the
data sources, such as cfsdbds and cfsdbdsxa.
Tip: For highly available environments, create the data sources on the administrative server
if you use WebSphere® Application
Server or WebLogic Server. If you use JBoss Application Server, deploy the data sources to each farm
node.
- In the Content Platform Engine administration console, configure a
connection to Content Integrator by creating a fixed storage device and fixed
storage area:
- In the domain navigation pane, click and click New. Select Federated Device (IBM Content Integrator)
from the Type list and set the configuration parameters.
- In the navigation pane of the object store in which you plan to store the federated documents,
click and click New. Select Fixed for the storage area type and complete the wizard.
- In the Content Platform Engine administration console, create document
classes and custom properties that correspond to the document classes and custom properties of the
documents in the external repositories that you plan to federate.
- In the Content Integrator administration tool, map Content Platform Engine
properties to the properties of the external repositories.
- In the Federation Administration web application, create
federation rules to specify which documents to federate from the external repositories. The default web address of the Federation Administration web application is
http://host_name:port number/FedAdmin.
- Verify the content federation system.
