Importing the instance configuration from a server configuration profile

Edit online
If you want to reuse a server configuration profile from a previous version of Content Collector for SAP, you must import the instance configuration from the profile into the IBM® Content Navigator database. A Collector Server instance that is used for an archiving, a document-linking, or an index-transfer task must be available in the IBM Content Navigator database.

About this task

To import an instance configuration that is specified in a server configuration profile, into the IBM Content Navigator database, complete these steps in Configuration Feature:

Procedure

  1. On the Manage Collector Server Instances page, click Import.
  2. Select the server configuration profile that the instance configuration is to be imported from and then click Open.
  3. In the Import Configuration from a Server Configuration Profile window, click OK. If the import was completed with warnings, a window opens where you find more details. Click Close.
  4. Go through the imported configuration, check the imported values, and add any missing values.
    The configuration panes that require values for mandatory fields are highlighted in the navigation pane.

    Fix Pack 1 If you plan to start and stop the Collector Server instances from IBM Content Navigator, ensure that the paths in the instance configurations do not contain any environment variables or shell expansions. Replace paths that contain environment variables or shell expansions with fully qualified paths.

  5. After you finish, click Save.
