Connection Fields

Title

 

Enter a unique, descriptive title for the connection.

Content Owner

 

Enter a valid AD Account or accept the default specification.

This account becomes the owner of the data in the index and will have full rights to search all of the data.

For this reason, consider security when you choose this account,

Web Service

 

Enter the full path to the BA Insight Stellent UCM API web service.

This path uses the format http:// MYSERVER:2273/DataConnector.asmx.

Replace the server name with the server where you installed the ES API and the port that was set during the install of the API. Click Connect or Refresh Web Service.

This operation loads new Connection information fields for you to specify.

Select the correct system type using the drop-down field.

Select either Stellent 7.5+ with either a SQL or Oracle backend, or the option for pre-7.5 installations with Oracle.

Connection Information

Setting

 

Description

Stellent Account

 

Enter an account and the password of an account that has full rights to all the content.

Database Connection

 

Database connection string to your store database.

· For SQL use:

Server=;Database=;User ID=;Password=;

· For Oracle use:

Server=SERVERORIP;PORT=1521;SID=samples;User Id=USERID;Password=PASSWORD;

WebServices Path

 

Specify the URL of the IDC web services.

Use Primary File

 

Stellent/UCM automatically converts many files into a more Web friendly PDF version upon upload.

This Connector crawls that version by default. In order to index the original version, select this field.

Allow Metadata Only

 

This setting determines whether to index files, records or everything.

If a file is returned, but it is not a supported indexable type, the file is rejected unless you select everything.

Security Model

 

Stellent Web Center Content has a security model that does not translate well to Active Directory.

In Stellent, security can be based on a user belonging to both a group and an account.

This dynamic security model is not supported in AD, so this Connector expands all the possible combinations of groups and accounts into new groups that are tracked with crawls.

When either an account or group membership changes this Connector updates only the documents that are affected by that change.

If you utilize Group and Account security, select this option.

Otherwise make another selection.
