Content Server Enterprise Workspace set to different node ID

Hello,

The Enterprise Workspace in OpenText Content Server (v24.1) is normally available on NodeID 2000. My customer's node is set to 2111. Has anybody got any insight how this may have been set? I have never come across this before and can't find anything documented or on the OpenText Knowledge Center?

Thanks,

Mat

Sure, when you first install Content Server, the program uses Node Allocation and assigns 2000, so for most companies, it will be that. When I first joined a big O&G company in 1999, our EWS wasn't 2000. My old mentor told me that someone had deleted the EWS node, and it was created back programmatically. One of the reasons why all APIs have a function that says GetEnterprise Workspace is that.

programmatically it can be found as select * from DTREECORE where SUBTYPE=141(https://www.greggriffiths.org/livelink/reference/subtypes/)

Note that I used DTREECORE instead of DTREE because if at ll your other original workspace is deleted and no one has removed it, it can be found.

Most of the common volumes categories, classifications etc are also going to be common in many places but strictly you cannot assume that so if you are writing something that should work within anyones CS I would look everything up as all api's have that handy.

I have also seen in another organization a non 2000 EWS

Thanks for the reply appuq. I raised a ticket with OpenText and they also advised that 2111 is common for the Enterprise Workspace Node. This was present on some of the vanilla virtual machines used by OpenText Support staff. I'd never seen it before.
