Verifying deployment of Application Engine or Workplace XT assets

Take steps to verify that your Application Engine or Workplace XT assets are deployed.

  1. To verify that the Workplace XT or Workplace site preferences file exists in the destination environment:
    1. Open the Administration Console for Content Platform Engine.
    2. Go to Object stores > Object store name > Browse > Root Folder > Preferences.
    3. Ensure that the Preferences folder contains a file that is named "Site Preferences for preference name", where preference name is the identifier for the preferences.
    4. If the Site Preferences document is not in the Preferences folder, perform the following steps:
      1. Look for the Site Preferences document in the Unfiled Documents folder. If the document is in that folder, move it to the Preferences folder.
      2. If the Site Preferences document is not in the Unfiled Documents folder, redeploy the document.
  2. To verify that Workplace XT or Application Engine is working correctly in the destination environment:
    1. After you configure Workplace XT or Application Engine in the destination environment, log on to Workplace XT or Workplace.
    2. Verify that the site preference settings are correct.
    3. Log on Workplace or Workplace XT as different users and verify that the correct options and object store content are viewable.
    4. Use the administration console to ensure that all step processors, custom applications, and component queues are set up correctly.
    5. Process a workflow that exercises either a custom step processor or a workflow that is provided with the software. Verify that operations and rules are functioning correctly.
    6. Run a stored search.
    7. Verify that all the correct content is visible in the folder hierarchy.
    8. Run any other test programs that are appropriate for your environment.
