Maintaining an iIS Process System

Maintaining an iIS Process System

Once your iIS process system is set up and functional (including configuration and startup of engines, as discussed in Chapter 4, “Managing Engines”), there are relatively few maintenance tasks that you need to perform.

Most maintenance concerns the databases in the system. For example, you need to regularly back up the central development repository as well as compact it from time to time (see the iPlanet UDS System Management Guide for more information). Also the engine database must be monitored to make sure you do not run out of disk space.

Other maintenance tasks might include the following:

adding new nodes to an iIS system

moving an iIS process engine

creating a new iIS Repository Server

moving an iIS Repository Server

creating a private iIS repository

uninstalling an iIS system

Each of these are discussed briefly below.

Adding New Nodes to an iIS System

To add a new node to an iIS system

1.Decide which function the new node is to perform in your iIS system.

2.Run the iIS installation program and choose the appropriate installation option.
