Overview
Each item is a package, consisting of the media itself, version history, author, sharing, and any other metadata. DryvIQ ensures all pieces of the item package are transferred to the destination to preserve data integrity. If DryvIQ can't transfer an item, the item is set to retry. By default, DryvIQ will attempt three times to reconcile items that are in pending/retry status. Depending on your job configuration, this may occur with the defined schedule, or you can start the job manually. When an item is in a "flagged" status, DryvIQ has made all attempts to transfer the file without success, requiring manual remediation. These items can be retried or ignored on subsequent job runs. If an item is retried and successfully transferred, the item will be removed from the flagged items.
When reviewing the flagged items, you can reference Migration Remediation Best Practices for suggestions on how to address different errors that occur during the migration.
Viewing All Flagged Items
The Flagged Items page displays the flagged items across all jobs. For each item, you can expand the failure error on the right side of the screen to get additional information as to why the item failed. Use the export option to export the report to a CSV file. You can then use the file to remediate issues by correcting issues preventing items from transferring and identifying flagged items that don't need to be transferred. Once you’ve worked through the export, return to the Flagged Items page to set the job to retry an item or ignore it on the next job run. You can click the View item history link to display the item's history. You can work with one item at a time or select multiple items and select the appropriate action.
When viewing flagged items in the application, long item names may not fit in the list. If an item name is too long to display fully, you can hover on the name. This will display a pop-up that displays the full name of the item.
Viewing Flagged Items in Reports
When viewing individual job reports or roll-up reports, you can click Flagged in the Breakdown chart on the Overview tab to view the flagged items for that job or set of jobs.
This takes you to the Items report, which is filtered to show only the flagged items for the job(s). You can also choose to view flagged items by filtering the Items report to display only flagged items. The same options are available here to export the lists to a CSV file, ignore items, retry items, and view the item history.
