- FileNet Deployment Manager
- For assets created with IBM FileNet P8 tools, you can
use FileNet Deployment Manager (FDM) for parts of the
migration and deployment process to move assets between environments. Generally, the movement of an
application or application assets through a migration and deployment process meets one of the
following needs:
-
To move assets between multiple repositories or instances of a IBM FileNet P8 system. For example, you might need to share assets or customizations between different organizations within your business.
- To support the lifecycle of an application that is developed by using a IBM FileNet P8 system as its base, for example, initial deployment from test to production, or propagation of changes from a development to a production environment.
For more information about the tool and its usage, see the topic Migrating and deploying applications in the IBM Documentation for IBM FileNet Content Manager.

How your tools and Content Platform Engine connect can vary depending on your environment. Use the console for your container hosting platform to determine the URL for accessing the Administration Console for Content Platform Engine. This URL provides the relevant connection information for tools that need to access Content Platform Engine. Your access URL is different for each of the following scenarios:
- Server and port:
http://<server_name:port>
- Operator default route:
http://<cpe.9.30.0.183.nip.io>
- Ingress:
http://<your_hostname.my_ingress>
You use these values when you configure the connection for each tool to Content Platform Engine, according to the Getting Started Guide for the tool.
