4.1.1 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.
-
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
.
4.1.2 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

4.1.3 Considerations for WebLogic application server
-
If you plan to use Configuration Manager to configure
the application server or deploy to the application server, the
application server must be manually started and running prior to
running the Configuration Manager. You can also configure an application
server that is installed on a different computer.
-
Ensure that you have assigned listen addresses for Administration
Server, Node Manager, and Managed Servers, before running Configuration
Manager on dual stack machines (IPV6 and IPV4 supported). If you
have not already done this, assign listen addresses and restart
each of them. For more information, see the
Configuring a WebLogic Server
section
in the
Preparing to Install AEM forms on JEE
guide.
-
To secure the data sources, select Package JDBC Modules into
AEM forms on JEE EARs (secure datasources).
Note:
Do not select
this task if your AEM forms on JEE implementation is required to
handle XML Forms. Alternatively, perform the steps in the Technote
at
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/844/cpsid_84435.html
to
secure access to JNDI artifacts on your WebLogic application server.
-
Configuration Manager does not support deployment or undeployment
of EAR files with custom file names. If your EAR files use a custom
file name, you must manually deploy and undeploy them to the application
server.
-
If you are configuring a remote application server, ensure
that an application server is also installed on the same computer
as Configuration Manager so that Configuration Manager can use the
application server library files.
4.1.4 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).
