Configuring Content Platform Engine servers (AIX, Linux, and Linux on System z)

The system checks for the default file-creation permissions for the user who will upgrade Content Platform Engine.

Content Platform Engine running on an AIX®, Linux®, or Linux on System z® application server
Use the umask utility program to set the default file-creation permissions mask for the Java™ Virtual Machine (JVM) instance that hosts Content Platform Engine so that the owner (the user running JVM) and the members of the owners group have read/write/execute access permissions, and all others have no access:
umask u=rwx,g=rwx,o=
This mask setting ensures that the access permissions on files and directories created by Content Platform Engine are identical to those you must specify when creating file storage areas on AIX, Linux, or Linux on System z file servers.
Tip: This umask setting is required for the user (cpe_install_user) who runs the Content Platform Engine installer program, but does not need to be in the .profile file of the user.
