The database server hosted three databases for the ECM system.
- The FNP8 CPE Object Store database is a relational database that contains documents,
workflows and other objects.
- The FNP8 Global Configuration Data (GCD) database basically stores FileNet® configuration metadata.
- Finally, ICN stores configuration data and preferences in its own database.
