Archiving

Archiving can be setup to move BLOBs to different storage tiers, as content is aged or when changes in metadata are detected. The rules can be configured on different scopes of content, but there can only be one rule per scope. The most granular rule is the only rule that will ever get evaluated.

The levels of granularity are as follows, from the least to the most granular:

1.Web Application

2.Content Database

3.Site

4.Site Content Type

5.List

6.List Content Type

 

So, for example, if the metadata change rule is more granular than the aging rule, then the aging rule will never get evaluated for an item within the scope of the metadata change rule.

1.Aging rule on site

2.Metadata change rule on list

3.Aging rule will never be evaluated for an item within the list in 2.

 

If large file support is enabled, only the aspx file is moved to the archive endpoint.

Profiles with File Share Librarian Configurations should not add Archiving to the profile. The archiving option won't be available for new profiles.

 

To configure archiving, open the profile and click the arrow of the Archiving bar.

5.Select the type of Rule Definition:

a.None – No changes will be saved.

b.Aging Rule – This rule looks for content that has aged beyond the defined time period(s) and triggers the content to be moved to different storage endpoint(s). See Aging Rules below.

c.Metadata Change Rule – This rule captures changes in an item’s metadata and triggers the content to be moved to different storage endpoint(s). See Metadata Change Rules below.

 

The scope of a rule cannot be edited once it is saved. To change the scope, delete the rule and recreate the rule with the corrected scope and rule definitions.
