StreamServer
This includes the software to run StreamServer applications.
StreamServer can be installed and run on Windows or UNIX using the Framework
and StreamServer Setup.

Framework and management gateway

The Framework includes a management gateway and the underlying software to
run StreamServe applications, such as, service gateways, Archiver applications,
and task scheduler applications.
The management gateway performs the following activities:
• Manages and monitors the StreamServe applications on the computer
• Connects the computer to a StreamServe Enterprise Repository
• Handles the communication between Control Center and the StreamServe
applications
The management gateway Windows services are called:
• StreamServe Management Gateway <version>
• StreamServe Management Nanny <version>
On Windows, the management gateway services use the local administrator
account. These services require local administrator access to create and remove
other Windows services.

StreamServe components

The management gateway UNIX processes are called:

• ManagementGateway
• ManagementNanny
The framework and management gateway are part of the Framework and
StreamServer Setup.
To manage the StreamServe applications on a computer, each user needs a login
to the management gateway. A Management Gateway Administrator with the
user name Administrator is included with the Framework and StreamServer
Setup, this user is assigned the administrator role. For information about setting
up management gateway users, see Managing users in the Control Center
documentation.

StreamServe Enterprise Repository

This database is used for deployment information, such as:
• StreamServe applications at one company or organization
• Application domains at the company or organization
• Computers used to run these applications
• Master document types used by the company or organization
In distributed environments, you should have one central enterprise repository
at your company or organization.
After the installation, you use Control Center to create the enterprise repository
or the Command Line Utilities to generate the scripts to create the repository. The
default name for enterprise repository is StrsSER.

Application domain
Depending on what you want to achieve in terms of document storage and
access, you organize StreamServe applications in application domains. All
applications in one application domain share the same repositories, connection
profiles, document types, and channels for reprocess and preview.
You configure application domains using Control Center or the Command Line
Utilities.

Runtime repository
This database is used to store job and document data for the StreamServe
applications in one application domain.
After the installation, you use either Control Center or the Command Line
Utilities to generate the scripts for the runtime repository. The default name for
the runtime repository is StrsData.

Using a central enterprise repository

When you run StreamServe software in a production environment, you create
one central StreamServe Enterprise Repository. You then connect Framework
and StreamServer, and Control Center to the central enterprise repository.
For performance and scalability reasons, you may want to install and run
Framework and StreamServer on more than one computer. In this scenario, you
must connect all the installations to the central enterprise repository.
If you want use Control Center to deploy the StreamStudio web application files,
you must install Framework and StreamServer on the same computer as
StreamStudio and then connect the computer to the central enterprise repository.

Steps
In a production environment, the order of the installation steps can differ to those
described in this section depending on the specific requirements of your
StreamServe solution, the StreamServe components you will run, and the
hardware used.
When making a typical installation in a production environment, you usually
start by installing Framework and StreamServer on the computers you want to
use to run StreamServer applications. You then install Control Center on the
computer that you will use to administer your environment. If required, you then
install StreamStudio.
After the installation, you open Control Center, connect to the management
gateway on a computer with a Framework and StreamServer installation, and
create the central enterprise repository. If you have installed Framework and
StreamServer on several computers, you must connect all the computers to the
central enterprise repository.

Step 2 – Create the StreamServe Enterprise Repository

These steps describe how to use Control Center to create the enterprise
repository.

Creating the enterprise repository manually

If the company security policy prevents Control Center from connecting to the
database or if you want to have full traceability of the repository creation, you can
create the enterprise repository manually. See Creating an enterprise repository
manually in the Control Center documentation.

Using the Command Line Utilities to generate the enterprise repository

scripts
You can use the Command Line Utilities to generate the scripts for the enterprise
repository. For more information, see Command Line Utilities documentation
available on OpenText Knowledge Center.

To use Control Center to create the enterprise repository

In Control Center, create the enterprise repository. See Creating an enterprise
repository from Control Center in the Control Center documentation.

Step 3 – Connect all computers to the central enterprise repository

If you install Framework and StreamServer on more than one computer, you
must connect the management gateway on each computer to the central
enterprise repository.
If you do not run Control Center on the computer, you can do this by manually
copying the enterpriserepository.xml file from the management gateway on
the computer that you used to create the enterprise repository to the management
gateway on the subsequent computers.
If you run Control Center on the computer, you enter the settings for the central
enterprise repository in the Enterprise Repository Configuration dialog box.

To copy the enterpriserepository.xml file

1 On the computer with the management gateway that you used to create the
enterprise repository, navigate to the following directory:
<Management gateway base
directory>\<version>\root\securityprofiles
where <Management gateway base directory> is the base directory
specified during the Framework and StreamServer installation. The default
location on Windows is C:\ManagementGateway
2 Copy the enterpriserepository.xml file from this directory.
3 On the computer that you want to connect to the enterprise repository, do
the following:
a Navigate to the directory <Management gateway base directory>
\<version>\root\securityprofiles
a Paste the entepriserepository.xml into this directory.
b Restart the StreamServe Management Gateway and StreamServe
Management Nanny services.

Installing StreamServe Port Monitor and

Print Processor

This section describes:

• How to install Print Processor and StreamServe Port Monitor
• How to add a printer for Port Monitor
• How to configure StreamServer applications for AS/400 environments

Print Processor
Print Processor converts documents from Windows applications into LXF
(StreamServe Layout eXchange Format) files. You can then send these files to
StreamServer applications via a StreamServe input connector.
For more information, see StreamServe Print Processor in the Print Processor
documentation.

StreamServe Port Monitor

Port Monitor responds to requests from the Windows spool system and writes
data to files or sends data to an FTP server.
Port Monitor ensures that all files delivered to the StreamServer application from
the data source have unique file names. The file extension used is *.dsi. Port
Monitor also functions as a logical printer in Windows environments.
Using Port Monitor ensures that you can access StreamServe as a logical printer
with an IP address and that the data source can direct its output to the IP address.
This is the usual way of handling output, for example, from AS/400 systems to
StreamServer applications.

Configuring a StreamServer application for IBM AS/400

To use a StreamServer application to process output from an AS/400
environment, you must configure the AS/400 for the StreamServer application.
For information, see StreamServer applications and AS/400 environments on page 70.

70 StreamServer applications and AS/400 environments
Installing StreamServe Port Monitor and Print Processor

StreamServer applications and AS/400

environments
The OS/400 operating system you are using to run StreamServer applications
must have a level that supports TCP/IP. The minimum level is 3.2.
To configure the StreamServer application for an AS/400 environment you must:
• Create a text driver for the AS/400 output queue.
Output sent to the StreamServer application must not contain control codes
from HP printer driver source code. These codes might affect the operation
of the StreamServer application. To avoid problems caused by control
characters in the data stream, you must remove all control codes from the
HP printer driver source code that might affect the operation of the
StreamServer application. You do this by creating a text driver for use with
the AS/400 output queue to the StreamServer application.
• Create a remote output queue to the StreamServer application.
On the AS/400 platform, you must create a remote output queue to the
StreamServer application. This output queue uses the text driver to create
pure text files. When you print to this output queue from your AS/400
application, the spool file is sent via TCP/IP to the computer where you have
installed Port Monitor.
• Configure Port Monitor on the Windows system.
On the computer where you installed Port Monitor, you must configure the
Port Monitor to have the same name as the AS/400 output queue to the
StreamServer application. Port Monitor receives the spool file and saves it in
a directory on the computer.
To enable output to Port Monitor, you must define Port Monitor as a local
printer and as a shared resource. The name of the shared resource must
correspond to the name of the remote print queue in AS/400. You must use
UPPERCASE letters for the printer name. See Creating a printer for Port
Monitor on page 67.
On the Windows computer, you must ensure the TCP/IP print server service is
running. The default port for LPR is 515.
For details on how to configure the AS/400 environment, see the AS/400
documentation.

• Applying the hotfix manually (DBAT not available) on page 84

Applying the hotfix in Control Center

In Control Center, you can list all repositories belonging to a site, together with
their current schema versions and the latest available hotfixes. This gives you an
overview of the current statuses and helps you decide whether the repositories
need to be upgraded.
If an upgrade is needed, you can apply the latest available database hotfixes to
the repositories directly in Control Center.

Prerequisites
• The login details for the database administration user that you originally
used to create the repository must be available.
• The Hotfix Setup has been run and the database hotfixes are installed in the
Management Gateway base directory:
<Base directory>\<Version>\root\config\database\
Where <Base directory> is the path specified for StreamServe Projects
during the Framework and StreamServer installation.
For example: C:\ManagementGateway

Preparations and recommendations

Before applying the hotfix to a repository, we recommend the following:
• Make sure that no other users are connected to the repository. If possible,
set the repository to single user mode.
• Stop all applications accessing the repository.
• For the runtime repository:
Make sure that all jobs running against the repository are completed.
• Perform a backup of the repository.
Always read the hotfix documentation for additional preparations for a specific
hotfix.

86 Applying the hotfix to StreamServe web applications
Installing and applying StreamServe hotfixes

Applying the hotfix to StreamServe web

applications
When you install a hotfix, the web application archive (WAR) files in the
StreamServe installation directory are updated. To apply the hotfix to the web
applications, you must redeploy the WAR files to the Java application server.
This section describes how to redeploy WAR files in Control Center.

As an alternative to Control Center, you can manually replace the updated

template WAR files in the portal root on the Java application server.
You must then make sure the files with connection information (added by the
management gateway at Control Center redeployment) are available in the
unpacked application folders. For example, by manually copying the files
from backups of the application folders for the previous installation.
For information about template WAR files and files with connection
information, see Files and folders on page 87.

Prerequisites
• The Hotfix Setup has been run, resulting in updated template WAR files
installed in the StreamServe installation directory.
• Backups of the unpacked application folders (including all sub-folders) in
the portal root are taken. The backups are stored in a place where they
cannot be overwritten (that is, not in the portal root).
• Preparations to preserve any customized configuration files have been
performed. See Keeping customized files on page 89.

Post requisites
• If required, restore customized configuration files from the backups.
• If you use shortcuts to access the web applications and change the web
application names, you must update the URLs in the shortcuts.

Files with connection information

When you deploy WAR files in Control Center, the management gateway adds
the files with connection information below to the unpacked application folders.

If you redeploy the WAR files manually, without using Control Center,
you must make sure the files below are available in the unpacked
application folders. For example, by manually copying the files from
backups of the application folders for the previous installation.

In the path examples below, Windows syntax is used. Corresponding paths are
used on UNIX. <Name> is the web application name assigned in Control Center.

Installing and applying StreamServe hotfixes

Keeping customized files

When you redeploy WAR files to a Java application server, any customizations
made to the current configuration files in the unpacked folders are lost.
To keep customizations at redeployment, you can do one of the following:
• Use the backups of the application folders related to the web applications
(see Prerequisites on page 86) – after redeploying the WAR files, you can
restore some of the files from the backups.
• Use an external directory outside the portal root for the configuration files.
See OpenText StreamServe Control Center User Guide > StreamServe web
application configurations > Keeping customized configuration files.
Note: Not all configuration files are stored in the external directory. See the
referenced documentation above for a list of concerned files.

When you use an external directory, the configuration files in this

directory are preserved when you redeploy a web application.
This means that if the configuration files are updated in the hotfix,
and you want these updates to be available to the web application,
you must manually delete the files in the external directory before
the application is started.
For example, if you rename the Ad Hoc application, you must delete
the webportal.properties files for the Reviewer application
before the Reviewer application is re-opened in the web browser.

Redeploying web applications in Control Center

Redeploying a web application to an open environment (managed deploy)
1 Stop the Java application server.
2 Delete the WAR file(s) and the corresponding application folder(s) from the
portal root on the Java application server.
3 Restart the Java application server.
4 In Control Center, expand the Web Applications node.
5 Right-click the <Web application> and select Update Domain Information to
deploy the WAR file(s).
6 If a Control Center message about the paths to the
<Portal root>\<Name>\WEB-INF\spring folder(s) not being accessible,
click OK.
7 Wait until the folder(s) are properly unpacked by the Java application
server, resulting in an application folder for each web application.
Note: Unpacking WAR files is time consuming.

8 Right-click the <Web application> and select Update Domain Information

again to update the connection information.
9 Verify that the files with connection information are available in the
application folder(s). See Files with connection information on page 88.
