Installation and upgrade

Installation of a customer-specific version (Customizing)

ARIS Risk and Compliance can be extensively customized to fulfill customer requirements. These adjustments are made in XML and Java files and later combined in a ZIP file. This ZIP file must be imported with the ARIS Cloud Controller after installing ARIS Risk and Compliance.

Warning

Customizing as described in ARIS Risk and Compliance - Customizing Guide will be slowly phased out from now on. From version 10.0.24, the configuration will be gradually replaced by a central Configuration in ARIS.

Customizing is applied to all tenants of the ARIS installation. It is not possible to use a different customizing for each tenant. The existing customizing is deleted during the installation of a new customer-specific version.

Procedure. Procedure
  1. Install ARIS Risk and Compliance. Installation is completed.

  2. Open ARIS Cloud Controller (ACC) console (Start > ARIS Cloud Controller).

  3. Stop ARIS Risk and Compliance using ARIS Cloud Controller.

  4. In the console, enter the command enhance <ARCM-runnable> with customizing local file "<path to CustomizingZip>". The name of the ARIS Risk and Compliance component depends on the type of installation. Possible names for <ARCM-runnable> include: arcm_s, arcm_m or arcm_l. Make sure that you always use double quotation marks ("") to indicate the ZIP file path.

    Example: Assumed that the installation type is Medium and the customizing.zip file is located under C:\customizing\customizing.zip, the command is:

    Enhance arcm_m with customizing local file "c:/customizing/customizing.zip"

  5. Start ARIS Risk and Compliance using ARIS Cloud Controller.

ARIS Risk and Compliance was extended with customer-specific adjustments.

If you have previously used ARIS Risk and Compliance without customizing, it is necessary to re-create the database schema, depending on the type of customizing, since the customizing does not automatically enhance the standard database schema.
