2.4 Modifying Configuration Parameters for Oracle UCM Content Server

This section covers the following topics:

2.4.1 Modifying Server Configuration Parameters for Oracle UCM Content Server

Server configuration contains information used to identify the Oracle Universal Content Management (UCM) Content Server deployment scenario.

From the Configuration page you can:

  • Manage the HTTP address, which is the server address used to formulate full URLs in the Content Server user interface. This prevents users from being prompted to log in again because the domain name used to enter the server is not changed when links on pages are relative. Example setting: pc.idc.oracle.com.

  • Manage the Intradoc server port, which is the port number listened to by the Content Server. This is a trusted connection where only the user ID is required to authenticate. Example setting: 4056.

  • Manage the IP address filter, which is a list of IP addresses that are allowed to communicate to the Content Server through the Intradoc Server Port. The field accepts both IP and IPv6 addresses, with a pipe as the separator between addresses. This list must be well defined because it is a trusted connection. Example setting: 10.131.123.*.

  • Choose whether or not to use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL), which is related to the HTTP server address and indicates that the full URL uses the secured HTTP nomenclature. For example, it generates an address with https://(HttpServerAddress)/... instead of http://(HttpServerAddress)/...

2.4.2 Modifying Email Configuration Parameters for Oracle UCM Content Server

Email configuration parameters contain information used to identify an Oracle Universal Content Management (UCM) Content Server deployment scenario.

From the Configuration page you can:

  • Specify the mail server, which is the name of the mail server that the content server uses to send SMTP based e-mail. Example: mymailserver.company.com.

  • Specify the SMTP port, which is the port number used to connect to the mail server. Example: 25.

  • Specify the admin mail address, which is the administrator e-mail address that receives error messages. Such messages are generally logged, but this is an additional method of notification. Example: mymail@mail.com.
