Oracle WebCenter Enterprise Capture provides organizations with a single system to capture both paper and electronic documents.
Capture supports both centralized and distributed image capture from a user-friendly web interface capable of using high-volume, production-level scanners. Support for the industry-standard TWAIN scanning interface enables Capture to use a wide variety of industry-leading document imaging scanners to digitize paper content. Existing electronic document files can be easily captured by users or automatically captured through an importing process that can monitor an email server or network folder. Once captured, documents are organized and indexed by applying metadata through manual or automated processes that use bar code recognition technology. After documents are completed, they are committed into a content management system. Capture is fully integrated with Oracle WebCenter Content to provide organizations with one system to capture, store, manage and retrieve their mission critical business content.
The instructions for extending the existing enterprise deployment domain with the Capture software are detailed in this section.
Extending the domain involves the following tasks.
Follow the instructions in the following sections to create and configure the domain for the topology with static and dynamic clusters.
Follow the instructions in this section to create and configure the domain for the topology with static clusters.
Note:
You can use the same procedure described in this section to extend an existing domain with static clusters. If your needs do not match the instructions given in the procedure, be sure to make your selections accordingly, or refer to the supporting documentation for additional details.
Domain creation and configuration includes the following tasks:
Task 1, "Selecting the Domain Type and Domain Home Location"
Task 5, "Providing the GridLink Oracle RAC Database Connection Details"
Task 19, "Reviewing Your Configuration Specifications and Configuring the Domain"
Task 20, "Writing Down Your Domain Home and Administration Server URL"
On the Configuration Type screen, select Update an existing domain.
In the Domain Location field, select the value of the ASERVER_HOME
variable, which represents the complete path to the Administration Server domain home you created in Creating the Initial Infrastructure Domain for an Enterprise Deployment and while extending the domain with WebCenter Content, SOA and Inbound Refinery.
For more information about the directory location variables, see File System and Directory Variables Used in This Guide.
