1.1.3 Compatibility matrix URLs
For IBM FileNet 5.2.0 up to 5.5.9 systems, you can dynamically generate up-to-date system requirement reports by using the IBM software product compatibility reports.

  1. Using the URL
    https://www.ibm.com/software/reports/compatibility/softwareReqsForProduct.html
    Enter the search string FileNet Content Manager 5.5.9
  2. Then select the version 5.5.9 from the dropdown (for compatibility with IBM Cloud Pak for Automation V20.0.0.1)

Figure 1.9: The main version selections for the compatibility matrix report search

  1. Select a subset of the Compatibility options (as required). We can select the Linux Operating system only, and the following server components:
  • Content Platform Engine Container
    • Content search services container
    • Content Services GraphQL
    • Operator Container (Version 22.0.1)
  • For the capabilities section we select All prerequisites:
  • Then simply click the Submit command button to generate an example Compatibility Matrix report. The Operating system tab shows that RedHat Linux 8.6 is supported. Also, there is a link to the list of Linux additional library packages which are required (https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/node/713759).

The pre-requisites tab of the Compatibility Matrix report has a table showing most releases of DB2 from 11.1 onwards are compatible with IBM FileNet Content Manager 5.5.9 as shown in Table 1.4 (though it should be noted that the EOL on the DB2 version may mean some of the earlier DB2 version components will not be fully supported):
