New Features and Enhancements

Discover

Insights

• Improved chart messages: Insights charts now display different messages when they are in an empty state to help you understand why the chart is not displaying. This helps you understand the necessary adjustments you need to make to your data source or filter options so that the chart displays as expected. Learn more here.

• Tooltips for stale data date parameters: When working with the dates for the stale data parameters, you can hover on the question mark icon next to the date field to view a definition of the selected date. The help text is dynamic and will change based on the date you select and may help you choose a date if you are unsure which date to select. Learn more here.

Results

• Filters updates: Several filters have been updated to improve usability.

  • Included Entities: This filter now follows the same three-tier hierarchy used by the scan templates: Tier one is the template, tier two is the category, and tier three is the entity types. This structure provides consistency between the scan setup and the filters. In addition, a new Migration Details template will display in this section to display the Item Status entity type for files that have been added to migration plans. Learn more here.

  • Duplicate Data: You can now select multiple Duplicate Data filter options. In addition, “hash” was removed from the help text definitions and replaced with “signature” to clarify how DryvIQ defines each duplicate data category. Learn more here.

• Does not Contain Refine option added: When searching account or group permissions, you now have a Does not contain operator that can be used to filter out domains so you can identify external accounts or groups that have access to files. This refine option is also available for custom insight charts.

• Column Updates: Improvements were made to multiple columns to improve viewing content.

  • Size (Including Versions): In the Metadata section, this column will always display a dash (-) for folders since no size data will be reported in this column for folders. This more clearly indicates a null value due to the item being a folder.

  • URL: The Origin URL column was renamed URL to simplify the name and cause less confusion about the information being displayed.

• Toolbox Updates: The following updates were made to the file toolbox to improve functionality:

  • A Copy link button was added to the toolbox. It is used to copy the file URL to your clipboard so it can be pasted as needed. This button also serves as a workaround for when the Go to location button is blocked by browsers. Learn more here.

  • Directory is now Path to reflect more clearly the information being displayed.

  • An Intelligent Migration section will display at the bottom of the file toolbox for files added to a migration plan. This section displays all the information relevant to the migration for the file. Learn more here.

Scans

• Improved Scan Processing: The Start scan button is now always active and shows the number of scans it will start. When you start scans, a modal displays and remains on screen with the progress of the process. You will not be able to close the modal while the scans are starting since important processes are being performed. Once all requested scans have been started, you will be able to close the modal. Learn more here.

• Next Scan information: The Status column was updated to display the next scan information for every scan. This information helps you easily identify when a scan will run based in its schedule or identify scans that do not have a schedule set and that need to be run manually. Learn more here.

• Improved scan status displays: Updates were made to make the scan status more visible for Queued, In progress, and Failed jobs. This allows you to more easily identify the status of each scan.

• View activity log for failed scans: Failed scans now display a View Activity Log link that can be used to view the activity for the scan. This will help identify what caused the scan to fail so you can take the necessary actions before attempting to start the scan again. Learn more here.

• New Refine Options: Three new refine options have been added to provide additional search capabilities: Has Executions, Scan Date, and Scan Status. Learn more about each option here.

• Enhanced warning messages: Since there is a direct correlation between the number of entity types added to a scan and scan performance, DryvIQ will display warning messages if you select multiple templates for a Discover scan. The messages serve as guidance to help you understand when your selections could impact your scan performance. Learn more here.

Migrate

Jobs

Migrate

• Improved job filter logic: DryvIQ now applies the job filters to all items that have changed on subsequent job runs to improve transfer results. This means that an item that did not transfer on a previous job run will transfer on a subsequent run if a change causes the item to now meet an include filter criteria. Similarly, an item that originally transferred will be skipped if the update causes the item to now meet an exclude filter criteria.

• Improved link remediation performance: Updates were made to improve the link remediation queries. This will result in overall faster performance of the link remediation feature.

Manage

• New Docusign connector: DryvIQ now offers a read-only Docusign connector that can be used to scan files and templates in your Docusign account and migrate them out of your account and into your preferred content storage platform. Learn more here.

• New separate managed Network File System connector: DryvIQ now offers two Network File System connections in Linux environments. The Network File System (SMB) connector is the native connector that uses SMB protocol to access files. It can be used for Migrate, Discover, and Govern. The new Network File System (Managed) connector is a read-only connector that uses SMBLibrary to make the connection, which performs faster than native Samba. The managed connector can be used as a source connection for Migrate jobs or for Discover scans and Govern policies where DryvIQ only needs to read content. The managed connector cannot be used as the destination connection for Migrate jobs or for Govern policies that require actions to be taken against content.

• If Microsoft responds with an “item already exists” during a batch migration job, DryvIQ now compares the latest set of item properties (modified, versions and number of bytes) to the item properties in the batch job. If the properties on the existing destination file do not match the properties in the batch job, DryvIQ will generate an error identifying the conflicting properties. In the error, original is the item property in the batch job, and latest is the item property on the destination. The item will be flagged as “Retry” and will be handled like a normal retry item.  After selecting the retry action (Retry, Ignore, etc.), the item should be resolved.  

• The OpenText and ShareFile connectors were updated to ensure folder renames migrate when one of these connectors is used as the source connection for a migration job.

Policies

• The last scanned date has been added to the top of the Policy reporting page (next to the active toggle). This allows you to see how old the scan results are when reviewing the policy reports. This date does not automatically refresh. The data only updates if you navigate to another page or manually refresh the page.

• Updates were made so you don't lose your place when editing a policy. Before, when you clicked Apply changes, the current tracking group would close, and the screen would reset to the top of the page. Now, the tracking group remains open, and the screen stays at the same location on the on the page. 

• When editing policies, new logic was added so the Apply changes button is unavailable if no changes have been made to the page. This provides a visual indicator whether edits have taken place and if saving is required.

Data Sources

• The scan status is now available on the Govern Data Sources page. The Status column display when the last scan ran for each location. If a scan is in progress, this field will display a progress bar to indicate the scan progress. If scans are running for multiple locations, each location will display its own progress bar. The Govern Data Sources page does not refresh, so a manual refresh is required to view progress. Learn more here.

Connections

• DryvIQ now supports connection to Hitachi Object Storage for custom S3 implementations. Learn more here.

Entity Types

• A new Active User Status entity type was added. It will identify if the owner and/or creator of a file is active and can identify if users with whom the file has been shared are active.

• The File Details entity type includes two new fields:
  1. Owner: This will identify the owner of a file. Some platforms (such as Box and Google) allow an owner who is different from the creator to be assigned to a file. If owner is not supported, the creator will be considered the owner. 
  2. Last Touched: This is the last time the file was touched. It uses the most recent accessed date or last modified date based on which date the platform supports.

Settings and Tools

Display Settings

• DryvIQ now supports a dark mode setting. Learn more here.

Persistent Label Classifier

• DryvIQ now offers an add-on Persistent Label Classifier feature. This allows you to apply labels to files that become part of the file and persist with the file through version changes or even migration. Learn more here.  

License Data

• The Licensing page now displays the byte limits set for both Migrate and Govern/Discover. We also optimized how we calculate the volume used, which may cause your volume used to go up slower than it did previously. There will be no retroactive changes to your calculations, but this will affect all jobs run after you upgrade to the 23.08.16162131 release. Please see the License page for additional information on how usage will be calculated going forward.

Fixes

Migrate

• For jobs using Google Drive as the source connection, a permission reset will now properly reapply permissions to converted Google Docs.

• Updates were made to ensure newly uploaded items on the source are transferred on delta runs.

• If a job that is part of a connection pool contains an invalid URL, the job will not run and will be flagged as “Failed to start.” This message will be listed in the log, and the failed job will not impact the other jobs associated with the connector.

• Upgrade scripts no longer fail due to a NULL extension.

• Updates were made to the Box connector to correct an issue where only 100 permissions (collaborations in Box) were being returned.

Updates

Connections

• The Amazon S3 connector was updated to support using a Service URL to access custom Amazon S3 implementations. Learn more here.

Migrate

• The job details JSON was updated to accommodate different deployment models. Information will be returned in one of the fields below based on where DryvIQ is installed.

  • The node_address field returns a hashed value when DryvIQ is installed in a Docker environment.

  • The new host_address field was added to return the IP address for on-premises/Windows installs.

Fixes

Connections

• The SMB Network File Share (Linux) connector was updated to improve retry handling when encountering intermittent errors and to fix the handling of percent (%) and pound (#) signs in parent folder URLs.

Migrate

• When a permissions reset is performed after an initial job execution, newly applied permissions are now correctly recorded in the audit log.

• If a job exceeds the maximum number of items per container based on the platform limit, the containers will be flagged as “Limit Failures” in the user interface and in the logs.

• Updates were made to prevent JSON files in private cloud environments from including duplicate and empty keys.

Updates

• DryvIQ updated its DigitCert code signing. The DryvIQ security certificate is valid until June 2026.

Fixes

Connections

• Connector credentials can now be updated to fix a disconnected connection.

• Samba (Linux NFS): The connector was updated to prevent link detection from failing.

• Samba (Linux NFS): Updates were made to the connector to improve its handling of locked files so it properly reports them as locked. Update logging was also added as part of this fix to assist with troubleshooting for this connector.

Miscellaneous

• The loading error for the API documentation accessed through url/api-docs has been fixed.

• CSV reports will now correctly generate when DryvIQ is deployed in a Kubernetes cloud environment.
