Move All Files of Specific Types to a Specific Vault
Copy
This configuration is especially useful for cases where files of certain types are either exceptionally large and that vault is specially configured to handle them, or are regularly accessed by another server-based application at that vault site, or for special backup or security reasons.
For this configuration, one replication rule should be set for each vault which is configured as the Default Vault for any user who might save that type of file, except the specific vault to which the files are to be moved.
- Initiator Type – onChange
- Filter Method – none, or configured based on the business need. Remember, the filter method is checked before the replication transaction for a file is executed.
- Replication Mode – Scheduled, Delayed, or Immediate, depending on the file type and business need
- Replication Type – Move
- Is Active – checked
- Replication Time – If Scheduled, set to an off hour. You should consider staggering the replication times for the different rules, so excessive replication transactions are not set to execute all at the same time.
- Timeout – depends on the installation, but a default value of 0100 (one hour) is a good starting point. Large files may require longer Timeout values.
- Label – a unique name for each rule.
And for the two relationships made in the Replication Rule -
- File Types – select the type(s) of files to move.
- Target Vaults – the selected vault (only one should be selected for a Move replication type).
