ACS WA State Conference 2018 


Jeff Andersen (Solutions Director - OIA) was proud to be selected for the Voted Speaker Stream at this month's ACS WA State Conference 2018. He had the opportunity to explore how AI and machine learning technologies are affecting the information management industry and in particular share some specific solutions where we are putting AI to work for our customers. The key topics covered were automation & auto-classification, mining meaning from already stored documents & emails, and protection of content with threat detection - all leveraging the power of AI. The ACS conference attracts all levels of IT professionals from many industries and it was a pleasure to be a part of it. If you are interested in learning more on the concepts Jeff covered, please contact us.

iManage Work Tips and Tricks


Active Directory Federation Services (AD FS) certificate rollover

By default, AD FS automatically rolls token-signing certificates over by generating a new certificate and promoting the new certificate as the primary.  Once the token-signing certificate has been updated on the AD FS side, users will NOT be able to login to the iManage environment using AD FS until the certificate is updated on the Work Server, in the location referenced in the SAML Key File registry key.  If you want to avoid issues with the automatic rollover process, you can do so by disabling the AutoCertificateRollover feature on the AD FS server - this will make updating the token-signing certificate a manual process.  See the following article for instructions.


Microsoft Edge configuration requirements to use Office actions in iManage Work 10.1 and higher

Browsers Microsoft Edge, Internet Explorer 11, Google Chrome, or Mozilla Firefox attempt to contact iManage Work Agent running on port 17870. This network connection is called a Loopback connection and in Windows 10 there is a security sandbox that prevents some applications from making such Loopback connections and some versions of Microsoft Edge enforce this Loopback, while others do not. This prevents the iManage Work 10.x web application from communicating with iManage Work Agent on desktop client workstations, and therefore renders some menu action items (e.g  Print, Compare, Take Offline) unavailable if the web application detects (incorrectly) that iManage Work Desktop for Windows 10.x is not installed on the workstation. The following technote has instructions to make the Microsoft Office actions available in iManage Work for use with Microsoft Edge.


“Port 17870 is in use by another user” error when running iManage Work Desktop for Windows 10

In 10.1.1, a new Windows service named 'iManage Work Agent Web Service' was added to handle communication between the iManage Work client and the iManage Work Agent. This adds support for installing on machines that host multiple users (e.g. Remote Desktop Session Host (RDSH) and Citrix terminal server environments) and will prevent the “Port 17870 is in use by another user” error.  To install Work Desktop for Windows 10.1.1 or higher in a multi-user environment with the new Windows service, use the following command and then follow the standard installation prompts to complete the installation:

"iManage Work Desktop for Windows.exe" IWASERVICE=1


For further information on any of the above, please contact OIA on +61 8 9223 1700 or info@officeinfo.com.au.
