Install the Connector Framework Only

Using the CA DataMinder IDOL Connector installer, you can only install the connector framework onto the local server. You must therefore run the installer on the server that you want to host the content indexer and content proxy server.

To install the IDOL connector framework only

  1. Find setup.exe in the root of your CA DataMinder distribution image. Run setup.exe to launch the CA DataMinder installation wizard.

    The Installation Type screen opens.

  2. Click Advanced Installation.
  3. In the Advanced Install Options screen, choose Content Services and then click Install.

    This launches the CA DataMinder Content Services installation wizard in a separate window.

  4. In the content services server installation wizard, navigate to the Custom Setup screen.
  5. Click the CA DataMinder IDOL Connector feature only. Then click Next.
  6. In the Autonomy IDOL Content Framework Selection page, specify the following items and then click Next.
    Install New Connector Framework

    Click this option if you want to install a new IDOL connector framework service.

    Use Existing Connector Framework

    Click this option if you want to use an existing IDOL connector framework service or if you want to use IDOL distributed action handlers (DAHs) to process indexed data.

    Server

    Enter the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) or IP address of the server hosting the connector framework or DAH.

    Service Port

    Specify the port number that the remote connector framework service or DAH listens on.

    Transfer Folder

    Specify the folder used to store files and emails waiting to be indexed.

    This folder must be accessible to the content framework service or DAH. If you specified a remote content framework service or DAH, specify a network file share using the universal naming convention (UNC) or a mapped network drive.

  7. In the Content Database Selection page, identify the server and service port for your existing content database.
    Host Server

    Enter the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) or IP address of the server hosting your content database.

    Service Port

    Specify the port number that the content database listens on.
