DryvIQ Migrate Release Notes



DryvIQ Migrate Release Notes

Version: 5.9.1
Release Date: November 7, 2024

 

 DryvIQ Migrate version 5.9.1 was available on November 7, 2024. This is a maintenance release that focuses on enhancements and bug fixes. Learn more about the release below. For detailed information about individual items, refer to the DryvIQ Migrate Documentation Center.

 

If updating DryvIQ from version older than 5.8, the upgrade may take an extended amount of time due to database updates. Do not cancel the update; let the update complete even if it seems to be taking an excessive amount of time.

New Features and Enhancements

  • DryvIQ now supports migrating OneNote files. OneNote files migrated from any source connector to a SharePoint connector will retain the OneNote file format.

Fixes

  • Filtering a user map by “External” now properly filters the results.

  • Items will not transfer twice when the parent folder is in a “Retry” status.

  • Microsoft SharePoint Online connectors will sanitize colons in root path names properly based on the unsupported character setting for the job.

  • SharePoint Libraries will not be identified as Sites for tenant SharePoint Online connections when crawling is enabled for the connector.

  • The DryvIQ Box connector will properly assign Owner to access rules during change detection.

  • The DryvIQ Migration API was updated to ensure permissions are properly propagated when inheritance is broken.

 

Updating the DryvIQ Platform does not update the Command-line Interface (CLI). If you use the CLI, you should update it when you update to a new version of DryvIQ to ensure the CLI is current. Run the CLI install command to update the CLI.  


Previous Release Notes

 

New Features and Enhancements

  • Link detection setting renamed: The job setting used to enable link detection has been renamed to Allow link detection and remediation on supported files to reflect the full capabilities available when the feature is enabled for the job. Learn more here.

  • Docusign template sharing handling: The DryvIQ Docusign connector was updated to manage shared templates. Templates will be shared to the Administrators group when migrating. Learn more here.

Fixes

  • Updates were made to link remediation aggregates to ensure negative values are not being calculated.

 

New Features and Enhancements

  • New messaging for pause jobs: A new informational message has been added to the Overview page for scheduled jobs that have been paused to indicate that the job will not run again until manually started due to the paused state. This helps users understand why a job is not running despite having a schedule so users can take the necessary action to resume the job or leave it paused as desired.

Fixes

  • Batch support was added to the Dropbox for Business connector when author preservation is enabled to reduce the number of “too_many_write_operations” messages encountered.

  • The Dropbox for Business connector was updated to prevent the impersonation list from timing out when searching for a user.

  • The Microsoft OneDrive for Business and Microsoft Office 365 connectors were updated to correct an issue where files with more than 200 versions were listing the versions out of order.

  • Link remediation was updated to properly escape forward slashes when remediating links on Microsoft Office 365 tenants.

  • The Network File System SMB connector was updated to fix an issue that prevented the connector from seeing users or groups during a permissions migration.

  • Updates were made to ensure distinct SIDs are assigned to disabled users across multiple jobs.

  • Item tracking was improved to prevent issues when moving a root-level item to a newly created folder.

 

New Features and Enhancements

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

  • New managed Network File System connector: DryvIQ now offers two Network File System connections in Windows environments. The original Network File System connector uses NFS protocol to access files. The new managed Network File System connector is a read-only connector that uses SMBLibrary to make the connection, which may allow for better performance than the native connector in some instances. The new managed connector can be used as a source connection for Migrate jobs but cannot be used as the destination connection.

  • Improved 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.

Fixes

  • Owner preservation for disabled users on root folder creation for Microsoft Office 365 will now be preserved if the information needed to resolve the user is available through either the EnsureUser CSOM API call or the _api/web/siteusers REST API call from Microsoft.

  • External email invitations are now properly sent for Microsoft Office 365 connections.

  • SharePoint On-premises connections can now be created in Linux environments.

  • A fix was made to prevent the “Object reference not set to an instance of an object" error could occur during link remediation.

 

Fixes

  • The Google Drive connector was updated to accommodate paging through file versions from the Google API to ensure all versions transfer when version preservation is enabled.

  • Updates were made to link remediation to prevent jobs from hanging when certain link patterns are present in documents.

  • The Links tab for a parent job now displays the links identified for all its child jobs.

  • The Network File System (SMB) connector was updated to correct a "The path 'xxxx' cannot be made relative to parent 'yyyy'" error that would occur when scanning items for this connector.

 

New Features and Enhancements

  • New Jobs Grid and Jobs Export Headers: The Jobs grid was enhanced to add additional column headers to provide more options for viewing information on the page. In addition, the Jobs Export was updated to include the new fields to provide more comprehensive reporting on your jobs. The new fields include:

    • last_execution

    • next_execution

    • current_execution_duration

    • category

    • created_on

    • modified_on

    • successful_bytes

    • successful_bytes_all_versions

    • revised_bytes

    • revised_bytes_all_versions

    • revised_items

    • retry_bytes

    • retry_bytes_all_versions

    • retry_items

    • flagged_bytes

    • flagged_bytes_all_versions

    • flagged_items

    • skipped_bytes

    • skipped_bytes_all_versions

    • skipped_items

    • transfer_rate_bytes_per_second

Fixes

  • Duplicate entries are no longer added to the audit logs when access rules are applied to items.

  • Logs now respect applied filter dates.

  • Dropbox connections can now successfully be created.

  • Duplicated jobs using Google Shared Drives as the source platform now start without error.

  • The Microsoft Office 365 connector can now access classic picture library types.

  • The Box connector was updated to correct an issue that affected creating impersonation jobs through the REST API. A job will no longer produce an error when created through the REST API with only the username field in the impersonate_as block.

  • 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.

  • Updates were made to link remediation to prevent malformed links from affecting job performance or preventing jobs from finishing.
