7 Appendix - Configuration Manager Command Line Interface

LiveCycle provides a Command Line Interface (CLI) for the Configuration Manager. The CLI is intended to be used by advanced users of LiveCycle, for example in server environments which do not support the use of the Graphical User Interface (GUI) of the Configuration Manager.

7.1 Order of operations

The Configuration Manager CLI must follow the same order of operations as the GUI version of the Configuration Manager. Ensure that you use the CLI operations in this order:

  1. Shut down the JBoss application server (Upgrade Turnkey only)

  2. Migrate the GDS directory contents. (Upgrade Turnkey only)

  3. Migrate the custom datasources. (Upgrade Turnkey only)

  4. Configure LiveCycle.

  5. Configure CRX

  6. Update LiveCycle core settings.

  7. Configure Content Services.

  8. Migrate existing turnkey database (Upgrade Turnkey only).

  9. Validate application server topology.

  10. Validate the database connectivity.

  11. Configure the application server.

  12. Validate the application server configurations.

  13. Deploy LiveCycle.

  14. Initialize LiveCycle.

  15. Validate LiveCycle.

  16. Perform critical tasks before component deployment.

  17. Deploy the LiveCycle modules.

  18. Validate the LiveCycle module deployment.

  19. Migrate Data Essential to LiveCycle

  20. Post deployment configurations.

  21. Check system readiness for PDF Generator.

  22. Add administrator user for PDF Generator.

  23. Configure Connector for IBM Content Manager.

  24. Configure Connector for IBM FileNet.

  25. Configure Connector for EMC Documentum.

  26. Configure Connector for SharePoint.

Important: You must restart your application server after you complete Configuration Manager CLI operations.

7.2 Command Line Interface property file

The Configuration Manager CLI requires two property files containing the defined properties for your LiveCycle environment. The templates for the properties files, cli_propertyFile_template.txt and cli_propertyFile_upgrade_template.txt, are located in the [LiveCycle root]/configurationManager/bin folder.

  • cli_propertyFile_template.txt file that contains properties that apply to LiveCycle installation and configuration scenarios, in general.

  • cli_propertyFile_upgrade_template.txt file that contains properties specific to upgrading tasks. Both are required for upgrading from a previous version of LiveCycle.

You must create copies of these files and edit the values. You can customize this file based on the Configuration Manager operations you intend to use. The following section describes the properties and values required.

You should create the property file according to your installation. Use one of the following methods.

  • Create a property file and populate the values according to your installation and configuration scenarios.

  • Copy the property files cli_propertyFile_template.txt and cli_propertyFile_upgrade_template.txt to use these as a template and edit the values based on the Configuration Manager operations you intend to use.

  • Use the GUI of the Configuration Manager and then use the property file created by the GUI version as the CLI version property file. When you run the [LiveCycle root]/configurationManager/bin/ConfigurationManager.bat/sh file, the userValuesForCLI.properties file is created in the [LiveCycle root]/configurationManager/config directory. You can use this file as input for the Configuration Manager CLI.

    Note: In the CLI properties file, you must use the escape character (\) for Windows paths directory separator (\). For example, if the Fonts folder to be mentioned is C:\Windows\Fonts, in the Configuration Manager CLI script, you should enter it as C:\\Windows\\Fonts.
    Note: The following modules depend on ALC-LFS-ContentRepository. If you are using the cli_propertyFile_template.txt as template then either remove the ALC-LFS-ContentRepository from excludedSolutionComponents list or add the following LFS in excludedSolutionComponents list:
    • ALC-LFS-ProcessManagement

    • ALC-LFS-CorrespondenceManagement

    • ALC-LFS-ContentRepository

    • ALC-LFS-MobileForms

    • ALC-LFS_FormsManager

7.3 Upgrading LiveCycle Commands

7.3.1 (Turnkey and Partial Turnkey only) Shutdown command for JBoss for previous LiveCycle version

Note: This command would run only if your LiveCycle ES4 Turnkey installation and your previous Turnkey installation coexist on the same machine and you have chosen to perform an upgrade installation while installing LiveCycle ES4 in Turnkey mode.

The upgrade-shutdownPreviousJboss command shuts down the JBoss service installed with your previous LiveCycle turnkey or partial turnkey installation and sets the service run mode to 'manual'.

This command requires no properties.

7.3.2 (Turnkey and Partial Turnkey only) Migrate LiveCycle GDS command

Note: This command would run only if your LiveCycle ES4 Turnkey installation and your previous Turnkey installation coexist on the same machine and you have chosen to perform an upgrade installation while installing LiveCycle ES4 in Turnkey mode.

The upgrade-migrateGDS command migrates the Global Document Storage (GDS) directory contents from default GDS location of previous LiveCycle to the default GDS location of LiveCycle ES4.

This command works only for turnkey or partial turnkey installations, and when the default GDS is being used. If a custom GDS is being used, the contents need to be manually migrated. This command also migrates the Connectors for ECM properties file from the LiveCycle JBoss bin directory to the new JBoss location.

This command requires no input properties.

7.3.3 (Turnkey and Partial Turnkey only) Migrate LiveCycle datasources command

Note: This command would run only if your LiveCycle ES4 Turnkey installation and your previous Turnkey installation coexist on the same machine and you have chosen to perform an upgrade installation while installing LiveCycle ES4 in Turnkey mode.

The upgrade-migrateDataSources command migrates the custom datasource definitions that might have been added to the adobe-ds.xml or <database>-ds.xml datasource files in the JBoss /server/<profile name>/deploy directory. If no custom datasources are defined, skip this command.

The following properties are available for the upgrade-migrateDataSources command.

Property

Description

Note: The mysqlDSDatasourcesToMigrate property refers to any LiveCycle database that you may have installed, and not just a MySQL database.

7.3.4 Update LiveCycle core settings command

The upgrade-configureCoreSettings command updates various core settings for LiveCycle. For example, if in your previous LiveCycle system you had the Global Document Storage (GDS) directory set at C:\LC\GDS and in LiveCycle ES4 you plan to set it to E:\DS\GDS, then the new location is not updated in the database unless this CLI command is executed. Other core settings that can be updated in the same manner are: Adobe server fonts directory, Customer fonts directory, System fonts directory, Enable FIPS, LiveCycle temp directory, LiveCycle global document storage directory.The following properties are available for the upgrade-configureCoreSettings command.

Before you run this command, make sure that both the MySQL services are running and are accessible. Also, both the MySQL services should be running on different ports.The following properties are available for the upgrade-migrateTurnkeyDatabase command.
