Migrating and deploying IBM Case Manager solutions

You can migrate a case management solution from one development environment to another development environment, a test environment, or a production environment. After you develop and test a solution, you must deploy the solution in the production environment to make the solution available for case workers.

About this task

When you migrate a case management solution, you move the solution definition data and its related assets to a different environment. When you deploy a solution, you make the solution operational in the target environment, such as development, test, or production environments.

In a complete case management solution, several types of assets must be exported from the source environment and imported into the target environment. Depending on the tools that are used to design and create the assets, different tools might be required to migrate and deploy the assets.
  • For the assets that are not managed by Content Cortex, see Migrating and deploying case management solutions External link opens a new window or tab in the IBM Case Manager online product documentation. This documentation contains information about the migration and deployment of a case management solution, including information about using FileNet® Deployment Manager as a part of the complete process.
  • If your solution package includes assets that are managed by Content Cortex, use FileNet Deployment Manager for migration and deployment tasks that are related to those assets. For more information about migration and deployment with FileNet Deployment Manager, see Deploying assets with FileNet Deployment Manager.

For general information about assets, see Content Cortex assets.
