There are several ways to enable a component:

ComponentTool: Run DomainHome/ucm/short-product-id/bin/ComponentTool to enable a component. For example:

ComponentTool -enable component_name
```
Component Wizard: Choose Enable from the Options menu. For more information, see the Oracle WebCenter Content System Administrator's Guide for Content Server.
Component Manager: Select the checkbox next to a component name to enable a server component specified on the Component Manager screen. For more information, see the Oracle WebCenter Content System Administrator's Guide for Content Server.
