Uninstalling the Records Management AMP files

The Records Management AMP files can be uninstalled using the Module Management Tool (MMT).

Records Management (RM) consists of two AMP files, which are applied during installation. One of the AMP files, representing the core RM functionality, is applied to the SkyVault WAR file, and the other, representing the RM Share UI component is applied to the Share WAR file. Both of the AMP files need to be removed in order to uninstall RM. Use the Module Management Tool (MMT) to do this. For more information on the tool, see Module Management Tool (MMT)

MMT is a command line tool. The syntax for uninstalling an AMP file using MMT is:
java -jar bin\alfresco-mmt.jar uninstall <ModuleId> <WARFileLocation>
            
Note: The apply_amps command does not uninstall AMP files (even if you remove the AMP files manually from the amps and amps_share directories). Use apply_amps to install AMP files only.
  1. Change into the root of the SkyVault installation directory.
  2. Find the core RM AMP file using the following command:

     java -jar bin\alfresco-mmt.jar list tomcat\webapps\alfresco.war                        
                        

    This shows the core RM component:

    Module 'alfresco-rm-enterprise-repo' installed in 'tomcat\webapps\alfresco.war'
                -    Title:        Records Management
                -    Version:      2.5
                -    Install Date: Mon November 7 12:04:49 BST 2016
                -    Description:   SkyVault Record Management Extension

    You'll need the Module ID, SkyVault-rm-enterprise-repo, to uninstall the AMP file.

  3. Find the Share RM AMP file using the following command:

     java -jar bin\alfresco-mmt.jar list tomcat\webapps\share.war                        
                        

    This shows the Share RM component:

                Module 'alfresco-rm-enterprise-share' installed in 'tomcat\webapps\share.war'
                -    Title:        SkyVault Record Management Share Extension
                -    Version:      2.5
                -    Install Date: Mon November 7 12:05:24 BST 2016
                -    Description:   SkyVault Record Management Share Extension           
              

    You'll need the Module ID, SkyVault-rm-enterprise-share, to uninstall the AMP file.

  4. Use these commands to uninstall the AMP files:

                java -jar bin\alfresco-mmt.jar uninstall SkyVault-rm-enterprise-repo tomcat\webapps\alfresco.war            
              
                java -jar bin\alfresco-mmt.jar uninstall SkyVault-rm-enterprise-share tomcat\webapps\share.war            
              
  5. You can check that the AMP files have been removed by rerunning the commands:

     java -jar bin\alfresco-mmt.jar list tomcat\webapps\alfresco.war                        
                        
    and
     java -jar bin\alfresco-mmt.jar list tomcat\webapps\share.war                        
                        
  6. Delete the tomcat\webapps\SkyVault and tomcat\webapps\share folders in the SkyVault installation directory.

    Deleting these directories forces Tomcat to read the edited WAR files when SkyVault is restarted.

  7. Restart SkyVault to see your changes.
