Advanced configuration of FileNet Content Manager

The following instructions help you complete the Advanced Configuration for FileNet® Content Manager (FNCM) in the OpenShift® Installed Operators user interface.

When you complete the configuration settings for FileNet Content Manager, you provide information that reflects the preparation work that you did to create a directory server and the required databases. Be sure to complete all the required tasks in Preparing for FileNet Content Manager. Record the values and use them when you complete the configuration sections in the Installed Operators Form View.

The following sections are relevant in the Form View when FileNet Content Manager (olm_custom_content) is set to true. You can also edit the configuration for a Starter deployment (olm_starter_content is set to true), but it is simpler to accept the default values for evaluation purposes.
