Home > Release Notes > Archivematica 1.10 and Storage Service 0.15
Release date
Supported environments
Please see the installation instructions.
Archivematica 1.9 and Storage Service 0.14 are supported for production use in the following environments:
- Ubuntu 16.04 64-bit Server Edition
- Ubuntu 18.04 64-bit Server Edition
- CentOS 7 64-bit
For development purposes, most of our developers prefer to use Docker containers. These and all above supported environments are linked from the installation instructions above.
Added
Information Packaging (Backlog) Workflow Enhancements
Simon Fraser University has sponsored a development project to improve the ability to store Transfers for a long period of time. The goal is to improve the metadata quality of Transfers to reduce the risk of storing them for a long period of time in a backlog. As a result of this project:
- Transfers placed in backlog are now packaged as bags
- The Transfer METS file now records all preservation actions that took place during Transfer.
- The Appraisal Tab now handles packages with more than 1,000 files.
- A backlog can be populated from a new pipeline from transfers created by another pipeline.
- Documentation: link
- Issues (linked from epic): https://github.com/archivematica/Issues/issues/391
"Vintage" AIP handling
AIPS created in Archivematica prior to version 1.0 can’t currently be re-ingested in more recent versions (due to namespace collisions with the use of PREMIS 2.1).
This change will make it possible to reingest these older AIPS into Archivematica. This work is sponsored by the City of Vancouver Archives.
LDAP support for Storage Service
The Archivematica Storage Service now supports LDAP integration. This was sponsored by Piql for the Norwegian Health Archives.
External PID declaration
This feature, sponsored by the International Institute of Social History, allows users to include identifiers minted outside of Archivematica in their transfer and written to the premis:object metadata in the AIP METS file. This is done via an identifiers.json file included in the transfer.
Avalon Integration
Archivematica 1.10 has added the ability to integrate with Avalon Media System through the automation tools. This was sponsored by Northwestern University and Indiana University through IMLS funding. The feature allows users to prepare and store a DIP appropriate for upload the Avalon, and then have the automation tools send it to Avalon for ingest into that system.
Changed
AIP METS in PREMIS 3
As a result of the vintage AIP work described above, we have upgraded the AIP METS file to use PREMIS 3 exclusively. In previous versions it had a mix of versions 2 and 3.
API endpoint for manifest validation (beta)
As part of the Avalon integration described above, we added an endpoint that can be called to validate a manifest. While this is currently only implemented for the Avalon manifest, it could for example be extended in the future for metadata.csv validation and similar.

- Documentation: https://wiki.archivematica.org/Archivematica_API#Validate
Extended service callbacks
This change allows the creation of callbacks for AIP, AIC, and DIP storage events. This was done in service to integration with SCOPE, a DIP access platform in use by the Canadian Centre for Architecture, but is widely applicable to other use cases.
Fixed
- A number of fixes related to custom structMap import have been sponsored in this release by International Institute of Social History. Thank you!
- Custom structMaps do not support nested directories: https://github.com/archivematica/Issues/issues/283
- Purpose of Verify structMap in ingest is unclear: https://github.com/archivematica/Issues/issues/286
- Custom structMaps labelled as structMap_2: https://github.com/archivematica/Issues/issues/633
- We also added documentation for custom structMap import: https://www.archivematica.org/en/docs/archivematica-1.10/user-manual/transfer/import-metadata/#import-metadata
- Bugfix 2: link. Sponsored by someone!
- Bugfix 3: link
