Overview
Job reset options control how DryvIQ will reevaluate tracking state or permission propagation on the next job execution. Hard job reset will clear all previous tracking data and allow DryvIQ to reevaluate all content, rather than only detecting content that has changed.
After the initial job run, subsequent runs leverage the change detection feature, which allows DryvIQ to focus only on transferring content that has changed rather than evaluating all content. This ensures efficient transfer performance. However, not all platforms track changes the same way. A Hard reset clears all previous tracking data and allows DryvIQ to reevaluate the entire content hierarchy to ensure all content is transferred based on the given job configuration.
When a Hard job reset is selected in the UI, the job will automatically start the next execution, if the job is not currently running. Note that reset options aren’t available for system jobs.
Using reset options hard or full will reset your reporting values on the Overview Transfer Details report in the DryvIQ User Interface (UI). This is expected since these options reset all tracking states. This will not delete the job tracking data from the database.
