The Installation and Upgrade
Worksheet is a Microsoft Excel
spreadsheet (p8_worksheet.xls). The worksheet
describes the properties and parameters required to complete FileNet® P8 installation, upgrade,
and configuration programs, and provides a way to record the values
you assign to these properties and parameters.
Administrators who are preparing the environment
for installation or upgrade of FileNet P8 components
must use the worksheet during their preparation tasks to record the
appropriate values and provide them to the Installation Administrator
who runs the installation or upgrade programs.
Some of the features of the Installation and Upgrade Worksheet
are:
- Instructions: describes the worksheet and
includes a button that runs the Customize Worksheet macro.
- The two highlighted columns, Property or Parameter and ENTER
YOUR VALUE HERE, provide the simplest view of the requirement.
The others add identifying information and help you sort and filter
the rows usefully.
- The Role column assigns each row to an
administrator and uses the following acronyms:
- IA®: Installation Administrator
- ITA: Information Technology Administrator
- ASA: Application Server Administrator
- DBA: Database Administrator
- SA: Security Administrator
- P8A: FileNet P8 Administrator
- Property definitions are contained in the column titled Description.
- Some rows, though not all, contain a hyperlink in the IC
help link column. Click this hyperlink to run a query
against the IBM® Information
Center, which opens with the Search Results pane
showing the topics that contain the words in the query phrase. Browse
the search results until you have enough information to be able to
enter a value in the Worksheet row.
