Filter

Optional. Enter an alphabetic substring to search for matching files

 

 

and click Apply.

 

 

 

 

File Names

Select the video files to be migrated from the complete list of files in

 

 

the asset list. Use Check All, Uncheck All, or Delete Selected as

 

 

appropriate. Note that Delete Selected works with selected (i.e.

 

 

highlighted) files and not checked files.

 

 

 

 

Schedule

 

 

 

 

 

Start On

Start date. Default = unchecked. The tool will migrate files every day

 

 

beginning at the specified hour.

 

 

 

 

From/To

The migration will run during the specified time period.

 

 

 

 

Save to File

This option saves a status.xml file that shows migration results. If

 

 

some files fail to ingest during migration, you can point to this file in

 

 

the Assets field and repeat the migration.

 

 

• Comma – save the status file as comma separated values. This can

 

 

be displayed in a spreadsheet or an editor.

 

 

• XML – save status file as an .xml file. This file is identical in format

 

 

to the asset list (see Sample Asset List) and can be used to repeat

 

 

the migration.

 

 

 

 

Start/Stop

Start a migration; stop a migration currently in progress. You may want

 

 

to stop the migration and correct a problem if multiple failures are

 

 

shown in the Status column. See Recovering from Migration Errors

 

 

below.

 

 

 

Recovering from Migration Errors

Migration errors are shown in the Status column. Once started, the migration will continue until each ingestion reports either success or failure. If you stop the migration, all queued ingestions are removed (click yes on the popup) from the Portal Server and you can correct the errors and restart the migration when ready.

If you ignore the popup window (click no on the popup), you will have to either remove queued ingestions manually from the Portal Server or wait until all ingestions are complete with either failure or success. Then you can fix the errors and restart. You may see duplicate asset file errors in the migration Status column. These errors indicate that the asset already exists on VOD-W and the Portal Server and can be safely ignored.

Verifying the Migration

Use the Save to File (XML) option to create a status.xml file which lists the video files that failed to ingest. If some files fail to ingest during migration, you can point to this file in the Assets field and repeat the migration.
