Install the Connector Framework and Content Database Together

If required, you can install the IDOL content database and IDOL connector framework on the same server. Use the CA DataMinder IDOL Connector installer to install these components.

To install the connector framework and content database together

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 Autonomy IDOL Content Database feature and the CA DataMinder IDOL Connector feature. 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 Configuration page, specify the following items:

   Service Port

   Specify the port number that the content database listens on.

   Data Folder

   Specify the folder used to hold the content database files. These files contain the indexed text content of CA DataMinder events. You must ensure that the target server has sufficient free disk space to store your indexed events.

   In a typical deployment, this folder is on the same server as the content database. But you can specify a remote location. If the folder is on a remote computer, specify a network file share using the universal naming convention (UNC) or mapped network drive.

   Service Account

   (Optional) If you specified a remote folder location, specify a domain account with write access to the remote folder. The content database uses this domain account to store and retrieve indexed events.

8. Continue to the final wizard screen and click Install.
