Configuring the server connection

You need to configure the connection broker server information. This information is necessary for connecting to the Documentum content repositories and starting the Connector for EMC Documentum.

1. In Administration Console, click Services > LiveCycle 11 Connector for EMC Documentum > Configuration Settings.

2. In the Documentum Configuration Information area, enter the host name or IP address and the port number of the connection broker. The port number must be a positive integer (for example, 1489).

3. Click Save.

When configuring the principal credentials, the repository name you provide depends on whether an explicit repository name is provided during login.

If you enter an incorrect user name or password, you will get the following results, depending on whether the service is currently running:

• If both the EMC Documentum Repository Provider service and the EMC Documentum Content Repository Connector service are stopped, when you save the service configuration information, no error appears. However, the next time you start the service, an exception will be thrown and the service will not start.

• If either the EMC Documentum Repository Provider service or the EMC Documentum Content Repository Connector service are started, when you save the service configuration information, the service attempts to validate the credential information immediately. In this case, an error occurs and the configuration information is not saved.

  1. In Administration Console, click Services > LiveCycle 11 Connector for EMC Documentum > Configuration Settings.

  2. In the Documentum Principal Credentials Information area, type the user name and password of a user with super-administrator privileges.

  3. If an explicit repository name is not provided during login, enter the repository name that the credentials are associated with.

  4. Click Save.

You can configure which repository service provider to use with Documentum. Repository service calls are delegated to the provider you configure. The following options are available:

Current Repository Service Provider Name:

The name of the current repository service provider

ECM Documentum Repository Provider:

Makes the Documentum repository provider the provider for the repository. This option has been deprecated

LiveCycle Repository Provider:

Makes the native LiveCycle repository provider the provider for the repository

Note: To select a repository service provider other than those listed, configure RepositoryService in Applications and Services > Service Management. (See Managing Services.)

1. In Administration Console, click Services > LiveCycle 11 Connector for EMC Documentum > Configuration Settings.

2. In the Repository Service Provider Information area, select the alternative repository service provider.

3. Click Save.
