Configuring existing application groups to work with FileNet P8

By default, application groups do not work with FileNet® P8. For any existing application groups that contain documents that you want FileNet P8 to manage, you must change that application group to work with FileNet P8.

To configure existing application groups to work with FileNet P8:

1. Start the OnDemand Administrator client by clicking Start > IBM OnDemand Clients V10.5 > OnDemand Administrator V10.5.
2. Click Application Groups.
3. Right-click the application group you want to modify, then select Update.
4. Click Advanced.
5. Click Yes in the Interoperate with FileNet P8 Platform check box.
6. Select whether you want metadata sent to FileNet P8 automatically and whether Content Manager OnDemand should assume that FileNet P8 controls the expiration process.
   The following list describes each option:

   • Select the Federate documents automatically check box when you want Content Manager OnDemand to send metadata to FileNet P8 when it loads data into this application group.
   • Select the Enable Records Manager to declare records automatically check box when you want Content Manager OnDemand to assume that FileNet P8 controls the expiration process. Select this option if you want to improve performance between FileNet P8 and Content Manager OnDemand. If you do not select this option, every time FileNet P8 locks a document that is stored in Content Manager OnDemand, FileNet P8 sends a notification to Content Manager OnDemand. Many requests might be sent, which increases consumption of system resources.
7. Click OK twice.
