New method improves connection to multipleDB2 Content Manager repositories
A new robust and streamlined approach enables a single instance of IBM® Records Manager to connect to multiple DB2 Content Manager repositories. A multiple-repository system increases content data capacity and facilitates the management of content across multiple organizations. To add repositories, you now install one instance of Content Manager Records Enabler for each DB2 Content Manager repository, identifying each repository as a host server within IBM Records Manager.
Non-root and non-DBA users can install components
You no longer need root or data base administrator (DBA) authority to install Content Manager Records Enabler components.
Users can declare records that supersede existing records
From the Client for Windows, you can declare a record as a new version of an existing record. The new record supersedes the previous version of the record.
Default attribute mappings synchronize metadata
You can create default mappings to synchronize metadata between IBM Records Manager and DB2 Content Manager Enterprise Edition. By default, each DB2 Content Manager attribute is mapped to the IBM Records Manager attribute with the same name.
Client users can search for records in IBM Records Manager
You can now run searches in IBM Records Manager by using the eClient and Client for Windows.
Support for WebSphere Application Server 7 added
Content Manager Records Enabler now supports WebSphere Application Server 7.
Content Manager Records Enabler installer automatically detects location of WebSphere Application Server
The Content Manager Records Enabler installer tries to automatically detect the location of WebSphere Application Server on your server. If the installer cannot detect the location of WebSphere Application Server on the server, you can now specify the location of your WebSphere Application Server installation when you run the Content Manager Records Enabler installation wizard.
