Migration preparation Update the configuration file of the Migration Utility: Be careful, the hostname may be FQDN…
A correct configuration of Documentum jobs is paramount, that’s why it is the first thing we do after the docbase installation. A few days ago, I configured the jobs on a new docbase using DQL, and I got an error because a job is locked by the user dmadmin. The error message was: DQL> UPDATE dm_job OBJECTS SET target_server=’ ‘…
Last but not least, today was mainly dedicated to demos and customer cases.

Receiving an incident is not always a pleasure, but it is always the case when we share the solution! A few days ago, I received an incident regarding WebConsumer on a production environment, saying that documents are not transferred as expected to WebConsumer. The issue didn’t happened for all documents, that’s why I directly suspect the High Availability configuration on…
In the previous blog I changed the Docbase Name to repository1 instead of RepoTemplate using MigrationUtil, in this blog it is Server Config Name’s turn to be changed. In general, the repository name and the server config name are the same except in High availability case. You can find the Server Config Name in the server.ini file: [dmadmin@vmtestdctm01 ~]$ cat…
Beside the obsolete dmbasic, the autistic dmawk, the verbose java with the DfCs, the limited iapi (for API) and idql (for DQL) command-line tools, Documentum does not offer any scripting language for the administrator and the out-of-the-box experience is quite frustrating in this respect. It has been so even before the java trend so it is not a maneuver to…
You are attending the second episode of the MigrationUtil series, today we will change the Docbase Name. If you missed the first one, you can find it here. I did this change on Documentum CS 16.4 with Oracle database, on the same docbase I already used to change the docbase ID. My goal is to do both changes on the…

Please see your system administrator.”…
