IBM FileNet P8, Version 5.2.1            

Configuring federation of closed documents

By default, the FileNet® Image Services Catalog Export tool exports catalog information and annotations for active documents. If you also want to federate documents whose retention is considered closed, you must create a trigger file to export the closed documents.

Procedure

To create a trigger file for exporting closed document information:

  1. Log on as the FileNet Image Services software user, such as fnsw, and stop the FileNet Image Services software.
  2. Create an empty trigger file. The presence of this file alerts the Catalog Export tool to export the index properties of both active and closed documents.
    Option Description
    UNIX Use the touch command to create the following file: /fnsw/local/trigger/INX_ce_export_all
    Windows Use a text editor to create the following file: \fnsw_loc\trigger\INX_ce_export_all
  3. Start the FileNet Image Services software.
  4. View the event log file (elog) to verify that the INX_ce_export_all property is enabled.
  5. Run the Catalog Export tool. If you already exported the catalog information for a document class that contains some closed documents, run the Catalog Export tool again for that document class, but do not select the Re-Export option. The Catalog Export tool skips the active documents that were already federated and federates only the closed documents.
