Install HCL Connections

Install HCL Connections, including the WebSphere® Deployment Manager at the minimum fix pack level, and create a Connections cell to contain HCL Docs. For details on system compatibility, see the System Requirements.

Note:
  • Any patches applied to the HCL Connections WebSphere® infrastructure should also be applied to the HCL Docs servers.
  • Ensure all Connections nodes are available and accessible before deploying Docs. Otherwise, Docs Extension and Viewer Extension deployment will fail.
  • During the installation and upgrading process of HCL Docs, make sure Connections is running and functions work properly.

For more information, see the Connections product documentation.
