RAVN Indexer     iManage Work Server 10.2 supports iManage Work Indexer powered by RAVN. The RAVN indexer brings with it significant improvements in performance over the outgoing IDOL platform, while opening up a host of possibilities for utilising the RAVN machine-learning modules to perform extraction and reuse of the information stored inside of iManage documents. The RAVN engine search deployment is made up of 2 components: RAVN Core which is the storage and search layer, and RAVN Pipeline which is the connector framework for multiple connections to a disparate set of data sources, including iManage Work.

RAVN Core is different from previous indexers as it is both an object store and a search engine, with some of the advantages being: > Higher reliability of write and read operations - reducing the chance of data loss and index corruption. > Schema change (searchable fields configuration) not requiring a re-crawl or export/import of data. > Numeric terms getting indexed with their full length. > Term dense data posing no performance challenges. For details on getting started with iManage Work Indexer powered by RAVN, contact OIA for more information. Information about the first adopter program for RAVN can be found

The session will cover: > Who needs to comply with the new NDB laws > How to identify a data breach > How to assess a breach and what remedial action is required > How to notify those affected  > How modern data breaches are prevented (anti-virus and anti-spam is no longer enough!)

Recent iManage Work Releases

 

Upcoming iManage releases

 

iManage Work Tips and Tricks UPDATE: Known issue with Office 365 Updates As reported in the March IM Highlights, there was an issue with Outlook crashing  when opening a 2nd email from FileSite after upgrading to Office 365 update 1802.  Microsoft subsequently resolved this issue in builds 1806 (16.0.10218.10000) and later. Further information can be found here. Following the issues seen with the Office 365 update build 1802, a number of iManage customers are now reporting similar issues (Outlook crashing, buttons missing from the EMM toolbar) with build 1808.  The current recommendation is to stay on, or downgrade to, build 1807 until Microsoft releases a new version following build 1808.  For more information see here. iManage Work Web Date Format When working in the web interface, the date format (US, UK etc.) could display a number of ways depending on your web browser.  When using Internet Explorer (IE), it will use the MS Windows region and language settings whilst Chrome and Firefox will use settings within the individual browser configuration. Adobe Acrobat Integration With users often able to upgrade products such as Adobe Reader without IT intervention, it has the potential to affect the integration with iManage if the upgrade is to the next major version, due to the new installation path for Adobe which no longer contains the iManage integration files.  The integration with iManage requires the following 2 files:

  1. The relevant API, under the installation folder for the Acrobat application:

    1. IManAcrobatReader.api – for Acrobat Reader versions up to and including v9 used with legacy FileSite and DeskSite clients

    2. IManAcrobatReader10.api - for Acrobat Reader versions X and above used with legacy FileSite and DeskSite clients

    3. IManAcrobat.api – for Acrobat Pro versions up to and including v9 used with legacy FileSite and DeskSite clients

    4. IManAcrobat10.api - for Acrobat Pro versions X and above used with legacy FileSite and DeskSite clients

    5. iManageWorkPluginRd.api – for Adobe Acrobat DC Reader used with Work Desktop for Windows 10.x

    6. iManageWorkPlugin.api – for Adobe Acrobat DC Pro, Adobe Acrobat Pro 2017 and Adobe Acrobat DC used with Work Desktop for Windows 10.x

  2. The relevant DLL, under the installation folder for the iManage application:

    1. iManAcrobatRes.dll – for legacy FileSite and DeskSite clients

    2. imanageworkpluginres.dll – for Work Desktop for Windows 10.x

Assuming the upgraded Adobe version is supported with the installed version of the iManage client, you may be able to simply copy the API file from the installation folder of the previous Adobe version, into the installation location of the new version (as the Adobe upgrade process will have left the iManage integration API untouched during the upgrade) or copy the relevant files from a working machine with similar Adobe and iManage versions. For further information on any of the above, please contact OIA on +61 8 9223 1700 or info@officeinfo.com.au.
