5.1.1 General Considerations
-
For IPv6, run IPv6 Configuration Manager. For detailed
information, see IPv6 support section in
prepare to install guide
.
-
You can override the default font for the Configuration Manager
by adding the following JVM argument in
[aem-forms root]\configurationManager\bin\ConfigurationManager.bat
(Windows)
or
[aem-forms root]\configurationManager\bin\ConfigurationManager.sh
(Linux,
UNIX):
-Dlcm.font.override=<FONT_FAMILY _NAME>
For
example:
-Dlcm.font.override=SansSerif
Restart
the Configuration Manager after adding the JVM argument.
-
During configuration, if you must reset the data in Configuration
Manager by using the Reset to Default option, ensure that you relaunch
the Configuration Manager. Otherwise, you may encounter some missing
configuration screens.
-
During
configuration, you must provide the location of the JDBC drivers
for your database. The Oracle, SQL Server, and DB2 drivers are in
the
[aem-forms root]
/lib/db/
[database]
directory.
For MySQL, download and install the necessary JDBC drivers.
If
you have manually configured JBoss, the database drivers have to
be downloaded and copied in the
[appserver root]
/modules/system/layers/base
-
Temporary
directory: Do not specify a shared network directory as your temporary
directory on cluster configurations. It is recommended to use local directory
as a temporary directory. The temporary directory should exist on every
node of the cluster and the path of the temporary directory should
be same for every node of the cluster.
-
Global
Document Storage (GDS) directory: Specify the GDS directory that meets
the requirements outlined in the Preparing to Install (Single Server
or Server Cluster). For latest documentation, see
http://www.adobe.com/go/learn_aemforms_tutorials_6_en
.
-
On
cluster environments, several steps need to be performed manually
in addition to the automatic configuration that Configuration Manager performs.
5.1.2 CLI versus GUI versions of Configuration Manager
This section describes the GUI version of Configuration
Manager. For instructions about using the command line interface
(CLI) version of Configuration Manager, see
10 Appendix - Configuration Manager Command Line Interface

5.1.3 Considerations for JBoss application server
The
Configure Application Server
,
Validate Application Server Configuration,
and
Deploy AEM forms on JEE EARs
tasks
are not available for JBoss.
You must configure JBoss and deploy the AEM forms on JEE EARs
manually as described in the
Deploying
AEM forms on JEE to JBoss
.
5.1.4 Considerations while configuring AEM forms on JEE Server Clusters
-
You cannot configure settings for IPv6-based clusters
using Configuration Manager.
-
It is recommended that you have local server fonts and customer
fonts directories at the same path on each node in the cluster.
Having shared fonts directories instead of local fonts directories
may cause performance issues.
5.1.5 Set the date, time, and time zone
Setting the date, time, and time zone on all servers connected
to your AEM forms on JEE environment will ensure that time-dependent
modules, such as Digital Signatures and Reader Extensions function
correctly. For example, if a signature appears to have been created
in the future, it will not validate.
Servers that require time synchronization are database servers,
LDAP servers, HTTP servers and J2EE servers (Application servers).
Note:
Ensure that all the machines
used in a AEM forms on JEE cluster are time synchronized.
