You can configure FileNet® Image Services to automatically transfer annotations to Content Platform Engine.
Use the FileNet Image Services System Configuration Editor (the fn_edit tool) to enable automatic export of annotations to the Content Platform Engine system whenever the associated document properties are exported from IBM® FileNet Image Services or when annotations to federated FileNet Image Services documents are added or modified. FileNet Image Services annotations can also be copied separately if the catalog data is already exported to Content Platform Engine.
When annotations are exported from FileNet Image Services, they are assigned the ISAnnotation class and stored in the storage area that is specified by the storage policy that is assigned to the ISAnnotation subclass. Within Content Platform Engine, you can use the administration console to modify the storage policy for the ISAnnotations class.
The annotations from each of the fixed content devices are exported to a single storage area as specified by the storage policy. If you have multiple FileNet Image Services fixed content devices in an object store and you want to store the annotations in a storage area specific to the fixed content device, you can create a subclass of ISAnnotation for each fixed content device and have each subclass point to a different storage policy.
You must explicitly assign the replication group to the annotations to replicate the annotation with the document. The exception is in the Workplace XT application: If you create annotations in Workplace XT, and the annotated document is a replicated document, Workplace XT assigns the replication group to the annotation that matches the replication group of the annotated document.
