About This Guide
Scope
This guide describes how to automatically install and configure your applications. Before you begin, read the Prerequisites for P6 EPPM Configuration.
Installing P6 EPPM
You will use the setup.exe (for Windows) or ./runinstaller (for Linux or UNIX) in the Primavera P6 Enterprise Project Portfolio Management physical media, or download to install the following P6 EPPM applications:
Note: You do not have to install all applications. However, you must install P6 to run the other P6 EPPM applications.
- P6 (and its help and tutorials)
- P6 Team Member Interfaces (includes P6 Team Member Web, Email Statusing Service, and the server-side components for P6 mobile)
Notes:
- You need to configure Email Statusing Service separately. See the P6 EPPM System Administration Guide.
- P6 for iOS supports SSL (https) or HTTP only when it has a certificate signed by a trusted authority.
- P6 for Android requires SSL (https) when you are not using SSO authentication. If you are using SSO authentication, you can use HTTP or HTTPs protocols. HTTPS requires a valid certificate from an Android trusted certifying authority.
- P6 Professional Cloud Connect
Select the P6 Professional Cloud Connect install option if you plan to use P6 Professional with an EPPM Oracle or Oracle Autonomous Database by connecting to a remote service. The wizard sets up a remote method of access to connect to the EPPM database and the P6 APIs. For more details on establishing the P6 Professional Cloud Connect database connection in P6 Professional, see the P6 Professional Installation and Configuration Guide (P6 EPPM).
Notes:
- When you install P6 Professional Cloud Connect, the wizard also installs the P6 Integration API (in remote mode) by default.
- P6 Professional Cloud Connect does not support Microsoft SQL Server database.
- P6 Integration API
Note: The wizard installs the remote P6 Integration API. If you want to use the local-mode P6 Integration API, see the P6 EPPM Integration API Configuration Guide.
- P6 EPPM Web Services
Configuring P6 EPPM
Use the P6 EPPM Configuration Wizard to configure P6 EPPM. The P6 EPPM Configuration Wizard creates a P6 configuration in Primavera P6 Administrator and configures supporting technology, including:
- A connection to an Oracle, Oracle Autonomous Database, or Microsoft SQL Server database
- A WebLogic domain
- Connections to optional enabling technologies, such as a content repository (Oracle Webcenter Content Core Capabilities (WCCC), Microsoft SharePoint, or CMIS-compliant repositories), reporting software, and or BPM
By default, the P6 EPPM Configuration Wizard runs automatically after you install your P6 EPPM applications. If you need to manually launch the P6 EPPM Configuration Wizard, use eppmconfig.cmd (for Windows) or eppmconfig.sh (for Linux) from the P6 EPPM installation folder at C:\P6EPPM_1\p6 (for Windows) or /u01/P6EPPM_1/p6 (for Unix).
After you use the P6 EPPM Configuration Wizard, use Primavera P6 Administrator to configure P6 EPPM administration settings. For more information about Primavera P6 Administrator, see the P6 EPPM System Administration Guide.
Audience
System administrators should use this guide.
