Installation

A new capture data storage type, SQL Server and File System, is available to store capture binary data using File System storage to improve performance related to storing and retrieving image data. This includes various types of file systems, such as local disk, network drives, network attached storage (NAS) and storage area networks (SAN).

You can update the CoreServicesLocation and CustomBinding_CoreService and TotalAgility APP bindings in the TotalAgility Configuration tool when the HTTP / HTTPS protocols are switched.

To specify the communication between Web server and App server, a new Outbound authentication configuration utility setting is added to the TotalAgility configuration tool. This setting updates the relevant Core Services bindings in TotalAgility Web.config and the Streaming service configuration files. This setting is only available for a Web server. If you select the Outbound authentication as http, then the Core Services Location URL on the Web tab should also be with http, and vice versa.

In previous releases, TotalAgility used two different paths to communicate to SharePoint server; some were direct calls to SharePoint via CSOM and some used TotalAgility Communicator service, which needed to be installed on the SharePoint server via SSOM.

In this release, all existing calls in the Communicator service are changed or moved to use Microsoft.SharePointOnline.CSOM for on-premise.

Remote Event Receivers (RER) is used to handle events in SharePoint.

The Event handling component is removed from the TotalAgility SharePoint components installation wizard.

In case of an upgrade, existing registered events still work as long as the Communicator service is running; if it is not running, you can update events via the Designer (Integration > SharePoint)

To install the add-on OCR engines (A2iA CheckReader and A2iA FieldReader), the following changes are included in the Transformation Server installation:

1. A new command line parameter, TS_INSTALL_OCR_ADDONS is added:

   • 1 (default): Installs the extra OCR engines.

   • 0: Does not install the extra OCR engines.

2. In the Kofax Transformation Server window, a new setup option, Additional A2iA engines, is added which installs A2iA CheckReader and A2iA FieldReader.
