Configuring objects that can be indexed for content-based retrieval

You can configure documents, custom objects, folders, and annotations for content-based retrieval by using IBM® Administration Console for Content Platform Engine.

About this task

To enable content-based retrieval (CBR) for all document classes or some subclasses, you can either enable CBR at the document class level or at the level of the individual subclasses.

Procedure

To configure objects that can be indexed for content-based retrieval:

  1. Start Administration Console for Content Platform Engine if you did not already do so:
    1. On any computer, open a browser and navigate to the Administration Console for Content Platform Engine logon page:
      • In a standard availability environment, the logon page is at http://CPE_Server:port/acce. CPE_Server is the name of the system where Content Platform Engine is deployed. port is the HTTP port that is used by the application server where Content Platform Engine is deployed.
      • In a high availability environment, the logon page is at http://virtual_server:port/acce. virtual_server is the name of the load balancer or proxy server where the clusters of Content Platform Engine is deployed. port is the port number of the load balancer or proxy server.
    2. Log on as the gcd_admin user.
  2. In the navigation pane, expand the folder of the object store for which you want to enable content-based retrieval
    Important: Nothing is indexed unless you enable CBR on the associated classes. You can index object content for Document and Annotation classes only. You can index property values for all supported CBR-enabled object classes. To designate property values for indexing, you must enable CBR on the property definition and the object class.
  3. Select the Data Design > Classes folder. You can configure the following object classes for CBR.
    • Document
    • Folder
    • Custom Object
    • Annotation
    The Annotation object class is in the Classes > Other Classes folder. The other object classes are in the Classes folder.
  4. For each object class that you want to enable for CBR, complete the following substeps:
    1. Right-click the object class and choose Open.
    2. Select the CBR enabled check box. If the object class is Annotations, scroll to the Is CBR Enabled field, and set its value to True.
