Performing IBM FileNet CFS for Content Integrator upgrade preparation tasks

The administrators of your Content Platform Engine environment must complete certain tasks to prepare the environment for the IBM® FileNet® CFS for Content Integrator upgrade.

As the tasks are completed, record the relevant data in the Installation and Upgrade Worksheet.

IT Administrator
Back up the following files:
  • RMI proxy server startup scripts, such as Config.xml
  • IBM Content Integrator Config.xml
  • IBM Content Integrator sso.xml (requires download and use of IBM SSO Migration Tool)
Database Administrator
  • Make sure that your database is supported by the current version of IBM FileNet CFS for Content Integrator. If not, upgrade to the required level before you start the upgrade process.
  • Back up all Federator databases before the upgrade begins.
Security Administrator
The accounts that are required for an upgrade are the same as for new installations. Review the requirements that are described in Security administrator tasks.
Application Server Administrator
Check the JVM release levels of the servers in your IBM FileNet CFS for Content Integrator environment and upgrade to JVM 1.6 if necessary. You might also need to upgrade to a higher level of application server software to achieve the level of IBM FileNet CFS for Content Integrator support and the JVM requirement.
