After you upgrade your IBM Content Navigator web client, you must
verify that IBM Content Navigator was
successfully deployed to your web application server.
About this task
See the completed Worksheet for verifying your deployment when you complete this task.
Procedure
To verify that IBM Content Navigator was successfully installed
and deployed:
-
View the installation log file.
The log file is in the logs subdirectory of the IBM Content Navigator installation directory.
-
Verify that the IBM Content Navigator Ping page displays your IBM Content Navigator installation at the correct version number.
-
Verify that you can access the IBM Content Navigator web client:
-
Open a web browser and enter a URL with the following format:
http://host_name:port_number/context_root.
By default, the context root is
navigator.
Tip: The format of the URL can vary depending on your environment:
- If you deployed IBM Content Navigator to a highly available cluster, the
URL must point to the load balancing server:
http://load_balancer_host_name:load_balancer_port_number/context_root.
- If you are using SSL, the protocol of the URL is HTTPS:
https://host_name:port_number/context_root.
- If you are using IBM Security Access Manager for single sign-on (SSO), the URL
is
http://TAM_server_name/context_root.
If you want to connect to IBM Content Navigator by using a
forward proxy server, refer to your proxy server documentation to determine the correct format of
the URL. In the standard format, the protocol portion of the IBM Content Navigator URL is replaced with the URL of the forward proxy server. You
do not need to provide any additional parameters to connect to IBM Content Navigator through a forward proxy server.
