The team is exited to introduce tooling to allow easier installation and configuration of a SDL Knowledge Center 2016 Content Manager 12.0.0 deployment. ISHDeploy is a PowerShell module that enables the code as configuration concept for SDL’s Knowledge Center Content Manager (= LiveContent Architect = Trisoft InfoShare) service.
The module is available for public use in PowerShell gallery. To quickly install the module and query the available deployments
- On a server with Content Manager deployments, open a PowerShell session with administrator rights.

Please note that all ISHDeploy cmdlets that change files need administrator rights to function.
In the screenshot below you can notice I have two deployments named InfoShareORA and InfoShareSQL. These reflect my lab setup.
Short description and links are available in SDL Open Source initiatives named DITA. The code is open sourced and available on github
