There are a number of processes and procedures for maintaining and administering
a SkyVault production environment.
- Starting and stopping SkyVault Use this information to understand how to run the SkyVault server and Share.
- Managing Share features Use the Admin Tools to manages features of SkyVault Share such as look and feel, tagging, categories, and sites.
- Managing users and groups Use this information to administer your users and groups in SkyVault.
- Working with SkyVault licenses Access to SkyVault 2.0 is licensed on a per user basis.
- Setting up clustering You can implement multiple SkyVault instances in a clustered environment.
- Setting up multi-tenancy SkyVault supports a single-instance, single-tenant (ST) environment where each tenant (for example, customer, company, or organization) runs a single instance that is installed on one server or across a cluster of servers.
- Creating and managing workflows SkyVault comes with a set of predefined workflow definitions which can be used right out of the box. For more complex requirements, you can also create, deploy, and manage your own Activiti workflows.
- Setting up Enterprise to Cloud Sync Enterprise to Cloud Sync gives SkyVault on-premise users the ability to synchronize their content to SkyVault in the Cloud. This feature supports scenarios where users wish to collaborate on documents with external parties that do not have access to systems behind the firewall. In these circumstances, the on-premise SkyVault instance becomes the system of record, and the cloud instance is the system of engagement for external collaboration.
- Managing transformations When you are working with transformations, it is important to understand how file types map to one another and the transformation formats that each file type supports.
- Setting up content stores A content store provides low-level access to stored binaries ensuring that, for every write, a new binary storage location is made available. This information gives an overview on the content stores, their types, and configuration details with examples.
- Setting up and managing content replication You can automatically replicate folders and content between repositories using replication jobs. These jobs are controlled by the replication service, which finds content that needs to be replicated and then calls the transfer service to carry out the replication. SkyVault replication suits an environment where you are running multiple, separate instances of SkyVault and then replicating a subset of the content between these servers.
- Importing and transferring files Use this information to import files using the Bulk Import Tool, or transfer files using the File System Transfer Receiver (FSTR).
- Migrating You can perform various migration procedures for SkyVault servers and databases.
- Monitoring SkyVault There are a number of methods for monitoring SkyVault.
- Backing up and restoring This information describes the process for backing up the SkyVault content repository only. It assumes that components other than the data residing in SkyVault (operating system, database, JRE, application server, SkyVault binaries and configuration, etc.) are being backed up independently.
- Auditing SkyVault SkyVault provides the ability to audit activity. The auditing system is disabled by default, as it has the potential to impact SkyVault ECM performance, but the auditing system is highly configurable, so that you only need generate data for those events of particular interest.
