Records Management global properties settings

Use this information to understand the SkyVault-global.properties settings for Records Management.

Settings for Records Management are listed in the <configRoot>/classes/alfresco/module/org_alfresco_module_rm/alfresco-global.properties file. For example:

rm.ghosting.enabled=true
rm.notification.role=RecordsManager
imap.server.attachments.extraction.enabled=false
audit.enabled=true
audit.rm.enabled=true
audit.rm.runas=admin
cache.writersSharedCache.maxItems=10000
cache.writersSharedCache.cluster.type=fully-distributed
rm.rule.runasadmin=true
rm.autocompletesuggestion.minfragmentsize=2
rm.autocompletesuggestion.maxsuggestions.path=5
rm.autocompletesuggestion.maxsuggestions.node=5
rm.autocompletesuggestion.maxsuggestions.date=5
rm.autocompletesuggestion.nodeParameterSuggester.aspectsAndTypes=rma:record,cm:content
rm.dispositionlifecycletrigger.cronexpression=0 0/5 * * * ?
Note: These settings supplement any settings in the <classpathRoot>/alfresco-global.properties file. If a value appears in both files, the Records Management value overrides the <classpathRoot>/alfresco-global.properties value.

Any setting that is false by default, is not shown in the SkyVault-global.properties.

A full listing of the settings and their values is shown in this table:
Table 1. Records Management properties with default values and meanings
Setting Meaning
audit.enabled Enable/disable auditing. Default is true.
audit.rm.enabled Enable/disable Records Management auditing. Default is true.
audit.rm.runas Set the user that the audit log runs under. Default is system. SkyVault doesn't audit events triggered by the system; for example, cron jobs. Set this value to admin for these jobs if you want them to be captured in the audit log.

Alternatively, create a user, provide the correct permissions and configure the jobs to run as that user.

cache.writersSharedCache.cluster.type Extended permission service cache: type of cluster used. Default is fully-distributed.
cache.writersSharedCache.maxItems Extended permission service cache: maximum number of items (node references) that are stored in the writer caches. Default is 10000.
imap.server.attachments.extraction.enabled Enable/disable IMAP server attachments. Default is false.
rm.autocompletesuggestion.maxsuggestions.date Auto-complete suggestions: maximum number of date suggestions to provide. Default is 5.
rm.autocompletesuggestion.maxsuggestions.node Auto-complete suggestions: maximum number of node suggestions to provide. Default is 5.
rm.autocompletesuggestion.maxsuggestions.path Auto-complete suggestions: maximum number of path suggestions to provide. Default is 5.

rm.autocompletesuggestion.minfragmentsize

Auto-complete suggestions: Minimum size of fragment to trigger a search. Default is 2.

rm.autocompletesuggestion.nodeParameterSuggester.aspectsAndTypes

Auto-complete suggestions: Comma-separated list of types and aspects used by the node parameter autocomplete suggester. Default is rma:record,cm:content.
rm.content.cleaner This setting is used in conjunction with rm.content.cleansing.enabled=true. Default is contentCleanser.522022M.

When content is sent for deletion, it is cleansed using the default 5220.22-M algorithm. The content is then destroyed, and the node is deleted (if ghosting is not enabled).

If you add a custom content cleaner bean, this can be specified using this property.

rm.content.cleansing.enabled Set whether content can be deleted immediately (data cleansing). This applies to deleted (destroyed) classified records and classified documents.

The default setting of false allows deleted (destroyed) files to be restored (from the Trashcan if they are documents, or by using a recovery tool, if they are records).

This approach is only effective for installations with a single magnetic disk. In other situations, such as RAID or SSD, hardware techniques or process ensure that the content is non-recoverable.

rm.dispositionlifecycletrigger.cronexpression

Disposition lifecycle trigger cron job expression. Default is 0 0/5 * * * ?.
rm.ghosting.enabled Enable/disable ghosting of records, when a record is deleted. Default is true.
rm.notification.role

Specify which role receives notifications; for example, when notifications when vital records are due for review. Default is RecordsManager.

A background job executes by default every 15 minutes to search for vital records that are due for review, and sends a notification. The template for the email notification is editable, and is stored in the Records Management section of the Data Dictionary.

rm.record.contributors.group.enabled

Set which groups can perform Records Management actions; for example, Declare as Record. Default is false.

If this is set to true, only members of the RECORD_CONTRIBUTORS group can perform these actions.

rm.rule.runasadmin Require admin rights/ normal rights to run rules. Default is false.
version.store.enableAutoVersionOnTypeChange Set whether a version is automatically created when the type of a document is changed. Default is false.
