About this task
You can install the Content Platform Engine components shown in the following table. Note that some of the components can be installed only on Windows. All installation procedures refer to using Administration Console for Content Platform Engine.
| Component | Description |
|---|---|
| Content Platform Engine | Install this software as the major Content Platform Engine component. When you install Content Platform Engine, Configuration Manager and tools are also installed. |
| .NET Clients | Install this software only on Windows client machines where you intend to run custom applications. From V5.5.6 use the Content Platform Engine Windows client installer to install the .NET API. |
| Tools | Install tools on the Content Platform Engine server to get a number of tools for both content and workflow management use. Install tools if you need FileNet® Deployment Manager. This tool is needed for IBM® Case Manager configuration and it is available only on Windows and Linux® configurations. You can also install only the tools on a workstation to get workflow system tools to run remotely from the Content Platform Engine server. Installation of either the Content Platform Engine server or the Content Platform Engine tools is a prerequisite to installation of IBM Case Manager tools. From V5.5.6, FileNet Deployment Manager and Process Engine tool components are provided in a separate package that can be downloaded from Passport Advantage. Refer to the current download document for more details. |
