Intelligent migration is a crucial step in planning an efficient migration. DryvIQ Discover scans your locations and provides an analysis of your content. Based on that analysis, you can make informed decisions about what content needs to be moved and where it needs to be moved. DryvIQ Migrate then transfers the content you tag to the specified location. You’ll know where the content is when you need to access it, and most importantly, you'll know the content is secure. This page walks you through the individual pieces used in your intelligent migration. Intelligent migration involves the following processes:
Creating the user and group maps (if applicable) for the platform combinations that will be used.
Creating User and Group Maps
...
Filtering: Filtering is not supported in intelligent migration because it does not apply since items are assigned to the jobs manually or based on saved views.
Metadata Mapping: Metadata mapping is not available when creating an intelligent migration job. Since there are multiple source locations used for intelligent migration, there is no way to properly map metadata.
User and Group Maps for Permission Preservation: You cannot assign a mapping document to the intelligent migration job when specifying the permission preservation for the job. Instead, mapping policies for intelligent migration jobs are automatically assigned to child jobs based on their source and destination platforms. If there are no matching maps, no mapping will be used. If there are multiple matching maps, the child job will not be created, and an error will be present on the parent job noting that multiple maps are not supported.
Adding Items to an Intelligent Migration Job
...
Go to the Discover Results page.
Select items in the grid you want to add to an intelligent migration job.
Click the Assign to a migration button that appears at the bottom of the page.
A modal appears and displays the available intelligent migration jobs. Click the job associated with the location where you want to move the item(s) and click Save.
You will receive confirmation that the items were added to the selected job. Click OK to acknowledge this message.
In the Results grid, the Migration Plan column will display the name of the assigned intelligent migration job, and the Migration Stage will be “Assigned.”
The items will be moved as part of the next job run. At that time, the Migration Stage will be “Completed.”
Adding Items to an Intelligent Migration Job Using a Saved View
You can create a saved view or use an exiting existing saved view to add files to an intelligent migration job if you prefer to use a more automated process for adding items. This turns the saved view into a “migrated view.” A specialized job runs every five minutes that checks the “migrated views” and assigns any new items to the corresponding intelligent migration job.
Go to the Discover Results page.
Create a public saved view that includes all the criteria you want to use to identify the items that should be used to add items to a specific intelligent migration job. If the public saved view already exists, you can skip this step.
Select My saved views.
Click Public if the the public saved views are not displayed.
Click Migrate view next to the saved view you want to use for the intelligent migration job.
A modal appears and displays the available intelligent migration jobs. Click the job associated with the location where you want to move the item(s) identified by the saved view and click Save.
You will receive confirmation that the items were added to the selected job. Click OK to acknowledge this message.
The view is removed from the Public saved views list and added to the Migrated views list.
| Note |
|---|
An item can only belong to one intelligent migration job. When an item has a status of “Assigned,” you can assign it to a different migration plan. This removes the item from the original migration plan. Once an item has a status of “Completed,” you cannot change the migration plan. If an item is added to multiple intelligent migration jobs (manually or through a migrated view), the item will be migrated by the intelligent migration job to which it was first assigned. |
...
When viewing the Discover results, you can use the Migration Plans filter to list all the intelligent migration jobs that have items assigned to them. You can choose to view just these items by selecting a job, or you can use the Unassigned option to view all items that are not assigned to an intelligent migration job.

Viewing the Toolbox Details
When you select a file in the Results list, the toolbox opens on the right side of the screen. Files assigned to a migration plan will have an additional Intelligent migration section at the bottom of the file Toolbox. This section displays all the information relevant to the migration for the file.
...
Migration stage: This will be “Assigned” for files that have been added to a migration plan but have not been migrated yet and will be “Completed” for files that have been migrated. This is the same status that displays in the Migration stage column.
Parent plan: This is the migration plan (intelligent migration job) to which the file was assigned. Clicking the plan name will take you to the Overview report for the job.
Child job: This is the child job that migrated the file. Clicking the job name will take you to the Overview report for the job.
Path: This is the destination path used to create the intelligent migration job.
...
(The path in the Location section at the top of the Toolbox displays the source location for the file.)
Item status: This identifies the file’s migration status.
Transferred on: This lists the date and time the file migration was completed.
