2 Preparing the Installation

Note:

Agile e6.2.1.0 supports AutoVue 21.0.1

To use AutoVue 21.0.2, please apply Agile e6.2.1.2 (Agile e6.2.1.0 RUP2) or refer to Support Note Doc ID 2491584.1 for a manual upgrade.��

2.1 Installation Setup Overview

The Agile e6 AutoVue Integration is part of the standard Agile e6 installation.

The following picture shows the components which must be setup.

Agile EDM Server:

The Agile EDM Server with the Agile e6 AutoVue Integration component. The Java Client WebStart and VueLink Servlet are deployed in WebLogic server used for the Agile EDM installation. There are no manual steps necessary for the installation on the Agile EDM Server to use AutoVue.
View Server:

The AutoVue server and AutoVue Proxy are running on the View Server.

Oracle AutoVue 21 must be set up as described in the Oracle AutoVue 21 Installation and Administration manual from the Oracle AutoVue 21 Client/Server deployment documentation. AutoVue Client components are not needed.

The AutoVue Proxy/VueServlet (see section "Product Architecture" in the Oracle AutoVue 21 Installation and Administration Manual) is running on a J2EE-enabled application Server/ServletEngines. It allows the AutoVue applet to communicate with the AutoVue server using the standard HTTP(S) protocol.

Note:
The View Server needs a fast connection to the Agile EDM File Server, because the files from the vaults will be transmitted from the File Server to the ViewServer.
Agile e6 Client:

The native Agile e6 Java Client installation contains the AutoVue plugin.

2.2 Installation Architecture

For the communication between the involved components see the "View Server (AutoVue)" section in the Architecture Guide for Agile e6.2.1.0.

2.2.1 Overview without Firewall (standard)

Following graphic shows the simplified communication.

Note:

You have to use a separate server for the View Server because the transformation of the native CAD data uses a lot of memory and CPU resources.

Check the prerequisites and perform the installation tasks described in the section "View Server".
Perform the tasks described in the section "Agile e6 application configuration" for each application.
Test the installation.

2.3 Prerequisites

Note:

Please check the different lifetime support for AutoVue and Agile e6.2.1.0. The Agile e6 AutoVue Integration is supported according to the Agile e6.2.1.0 lifetime support while the AutoVue Viewer itself might have a different lifetime support.

Please refer to the Oracle website for more information on the Lifetime Support Policy - http://www.oracle.com/support/lifetime-support-policy.html

2.3.1 View Server

The Oracle AutoVue 21 Server. For installation instructions refer to the Oracle AutoVue 21 Client/Server deployment documentation.

Note:
Currently only Windows 2012 R2 64-bit is supported for Oracle AutoVue 21 for usage with the Agile e6 AutoVue integration.

The Oracle AutoVue 21Media Pack for Microsoft Windows (64bit) can be found on the Oracle Software Delivery Cloud website (http://edelivery.oracle.com).

When selecting the Oracle AutoVue 21 Media Pack for Microsoft Windows (64bit), a list with downloadable components will be displayed. For the Agile e6 AutoVue Integration download the following components:

Oracle AutoVue Electro-Mechanical Professional 21.0.1 for Microsoft Windows 64bit

Note:

Each of the components listed above contains a desktop deployment and a Client/Server deployment edition. You must install the desktop deployment edition to support AutoVue offline! Only the Client/Server deployment edition is supported with the Agile e6 AutoVue Integration!

A Servlet engine for the optional AutoVue Proxy/VueServlet. For a list of valid servlet engines refer to the Oracle AutoVue 21 Client/Server deployment documentation. Optional means, this is only required if you want to use HTTP(s) connection to the AutoVue server.

2.3.2 Agile e6 AutoVue Integration

The Agile e6 AutoVue Integration runs as a WebStart application on Agile e6 and is started by the Java Client.

A 64bit Java JRE is needed to run the AutoVue integration.
