Overview
The Validation report allows you to run a content inspection and to view the content reconciliation that has occurred between the source and destination.
If the connection does not have access to a given folder in the hierarchy, DryvIQ cannot track and report these items.
Content Inspection
DryvIQ allows you to control the level of tracking and reporting for content that exists on both the source and destination platform through the Item Inspection Policy. This includes content that has been configured to be excluded from transfer and content that existed on the destination prior to the initial transfer. By default, this policy is set to “none.” This configuration will not track all items but will offer additional tracking with performance in mind.
For the source, DryvIQ will track all content (files and folders) at all levels in the hierarchy; items configured to be ignored based on various policies set for the job will not be tracked. For sync jobs, the destination will we treated like the source.
For the destination, all content in the root (files and folders) that existed prior to the initial transfer will be tracked as destination only items and will be reported as ignored/skipped. All content in lower depths of the directory (sub-folders) that existed prior to the initial transfer will not be tracked.
At any time, you can run a job to perform validation on filtered and/or shared items. This will trigger a full inspection of the selected content for the next run only. If filtered and shared items are already being inspected for the job, these options will be disabled.
The Item Inspection Policy cannot be set in the user interface. You will need to use the Scripting option when creating a job to change the Item Inspection policy.
Content Reconciliation
The content reconciliation provides a comparison of the reconciled items between the source and destination. It can help track the success of the migration. By default, it shows the counts for files and folders, but you can choose to view just folders, just folders, or data. The items reported in this section vary based on what policies and filters have been set for the job and based on what happened during the job run.
Identified: This is the totals count of items or data identified on the source and destination (including flagged/retried items).
Ignored [policy]: This is the content that was ignored based on the specified policy set for the job.
Ignored destination only items: This is the count of the items ignored on the destination and the percentage of the overall content theses items make up.
Retrying (not transferred): This is the number of items set to be retried on the next job tun.
Ignored [Filter]: If filters were added to the job to exclude content, any entry for each filter is included in this section. It will identify the count of the filtered items and the percentage of the overall content theses items make up.
Successfully matched or transferred (Including flagged and revised): This is the count of items or data that have been successfully matched or transferred between the course and destination.
