Governance Services is installed by applying two AMP files to an existing Alfresco Content Services installation.

You can download the Alfresco Governance Services distribution from Hyland Community. Log in, select the Support tab, and then the Alfresco Downloads option under Software Downloads. Search for the required version of Governance Services.

The Governance Services distribution zip file contains the following files:

alfresco-governance-services-enterprise-repo-23.x.x.xxx.amp

Contains Governance Services functionality that’s applied to an existing Alfresco Content Services installation.

alfresco-governance-services-enterprise-share-23.x.x.xxx.amp

Contains Governance Services functionality that’s applied to an existing Alfresco Share installation.

where x.x.xxx is the exact version provided in the Governance Services distribution zip.

Note: Install the AMPs manually using the Module Management Tool (MMT), rather than using the apply_amps tool.
  1. Download the distribution zip.
  2. Stop the Alfresco Content Services server.
  3. Delete the tomcat\webapps\alfresco and tomcat\webapps\share folders in the Alfresco Content Services installation directory. Deleting these directories forces Tomcat to read the edited WAR files when Alfresco Content Services is restarted.
    Note: If you are using non-Windows systems, such as Mac OS X and Linux, you’ll need to replace the backslashes by forward slashes in directory paths.
  4. Copy the AMP files to the Alfresco amps and amps_share directories.
    1. Copy the -repo- AMP file to the Alfresco amps directory.
    2. Copy the -share- AMP file to the Alfresco amps_share directory.
  5. Change into the root of the Alfresco Content Services installation directory. Directories specified in the following procedures are relative to this directory.
  6. Run the following commands to install the AMP files:
     java -jar bin\alfresco-mmt.jar install
    amps\alfresco-governance-services-enterprise-repo-23.x.x.xxx.amp
    tomcat\webapps\alfresco.war
    
     java -jar bin\alfresco-mmt.jar
    install amps_share\alfresco-governance-services-enterprise-share-23.x.x.xxx.amp
    tomcat\webapps\share.war
    
  7. Start the Alfresco Content Services server.
  8. Check the AMP files have been installed successfully, using these commands:
     java -jar bin\alfresco-mmt.jar list tomcat\webapps\share.war
    

    and

     java -jar bin\alfresco-mmt.jar list tomcat\webapps\alfresco.war
    
  9. Start Share by browsing to: http://<your-server-name>:<port number>/share
    Note: When you install Governance Services the Security Controls features are installed at the same time.
Final step before you can start with Records Management is to create the Records Management site.
