  1. In your DSpace Source directory ([dspace-src]), you will need to modify the following POM file:
    • [dspace-src]/dspace/modules/additions/pom.xml (This POM will ensure that the "dspace-replicate" dependency is made available to commandline and ALL DSpace interfaces)

  2. For this pom.xml file, add the following <dependency> section at the end of the existing <dependencies> section (just before the closing </dependencies> tag).

    Code Block
    <dependencies>
        ...
    
    	<!-- Adding this dependency will install the Replication Task Suite Addon -->
    	<dependency>
       		<groupId>org.dspace</groupId>
       		<artifactId>dspace-replicate</artifactId>
       		<version>3.1</version>
    	</dependency>
    </dependencies> 
  3. Once you've finished modifying both pom.xml files, rebuild DSpace by running the following from your [dspace-src]/dspace/ folder:

    Code Block
    mvn clean package
    
  4. Follow the instructions in the Configuration section below in order to enable & configure the Replication Task Suite Add-On.
    1. You may wish to ensure these configurations exist in your [dspace-src]/dspace/config/ directory.  That way they will be auto-installed/copied whenever you run "ant update" (see next step).
  5. You will need to update your existing DSpace 3.x installation, by running the following from your [dspace-src]/dspace/target/dspace-[version]-build/ directory

    Code Block
    ant update
    
    Note

    Alternatively, if you don't want to do a full DSpace update, you can just update your existing binaries & webapps by running the following two commands:

    • ant update_code (Updates the existing [dspace]/lib/ directory)
    • ant update_webapps (Updates the existing [dspace]/webapp/ directory)

Upgrades

Upgrading the Replication Task Suite to a new version essentially involves a reinstallation of the add-on.

Follow the latest installation instructions, based on the version of DSpace you are running:

Once you have reinstalled the Replication Task Suite, you should compare your existing configurations with the latest Replication Task Suite configurations.  In most cases, your existing configurations should function perfectly, but you should review the differences just in case.

Configuration

Configuration of the Replication Task Suite is based entirely on your local institution's backup, restore and preservation needs.
