Completing Configuration of Remote Content

To complete configuration of remote content, you must do the following:

• Update all content reference definitions that specify LOCAL_NODE on each content provider system.

• Synchronize security settings for remote folders in the portal system.

Updating All Content Reference Definitions That Specify LOCAL_NODE

On each content provider system, update all content reference definitions that specify LOCAL_NODE as the node name to use the portal host node name instead. For example, on a PeopleSoft FSCM content provider system, the following SQL would update LOCAL_NODE to the ERP node:

update PSPRSMDEFN set PORTAL_CNTPRV_NAM='ERP' where PORTAL_REFTYPE='C' and PORTAL_CNTPRV_NAM='LOCAL_NODE' and PORTAL_NAME='EMPLOYEE';

After updating the content reference definitions, you must delete the application server cache on both the portal system and the content provider system, and then restart both application servers.

Synchronizing Security Settings For Remote Folders

Remote folders are added with security set to public in the portal system. Therefore, to ensure that only authorized users are allowed to see the remote folders in the main menu, you need to synchronize the new folder's security with the settings from the content provider system. To synchronize the security settings between the systems, you must manually remove the public setting and apply the same security settings that exist in the content provider system to the folder’s content reference definition in the portal system.
