A site represents a geographical location where resources
are connected by using a fast, reliable local area network (LAN).
Create a site
You can create a site at any time to organize resources based
on network topology. A site represents a geographical location where
resources are connected by using a fast, reliable local area network
(LAN). Object stores, storage areas, content cache areas, index areas,
and virtual servers are all associated with an individual site. There
is no limit to the number of sites that a single FileNet P8 domain can contain. Each
site name must be unique within the domain.
Moving site components
You can move a site component at any time to organize resources
to match your network topology.
Change the default site
After you create a domain, the domain node contains one
site named Initial Site; this site is set as the default site for
the domain. The default site contains the associated resources such
virtual servers, index areas, and object stores. Resources that are
added to the domain are associated with the default site, unless otherwise
specified.
Server instance addition for a site
You can add a Java™ Platform,
Enterprise Edition (Java EE)
application server instance to an existing FileNet P8 domain if the server instance
is a member of the Java EE application
server farm in which the FileNet P8 domain
resides.
