Content Matrix 9.10 - Quick Start Guide

The Metalogix Extensions Web Service

The Metalogix SharePoint Extensions Web Service enables both Read and Write access to remote SharePoint on premises instances. This remote connection accesses the content through the remote SharePoint installation’s Object Model (OM). The Extensions Web Service can be installed using the Metalogix SharePoint Extensions Web Service Setup.exe file that is included in the installation zip file.

Once the Extensions Web Service is installed on one SharePoint Web Front End (WFE) it will automatically be pushed to any other SharePoint WFEs on the farm as a SharePoint solution file (WSP). When the Web Service has been deployed it can be managed as a SharePoint web solution, and can be accessed through the farm’s Central Administration page, to administer, disable, or uninstall the Web Service.

The Extensions Web Service component can be installed in any SharePoint on premises environment, and is supported on both 32-bit and 64-bit servers.  

The Extensions Web Service helps to enable some migrations features through the remote access to the SharePoint OM, so it is recommended to have them deployed if possible.

After installation, the Web Service will run under the “app pool” user account. This means that any user running a migration with Content Matrix will only need to have general access to the content that is being migrated, in the SharePoint UI.

Activating the License Key

You will be prompted to input an Activation License Key when launching the Content Matrix Console:

OR

·after your license has expired.

IMPORTANT:  During installation, all Editions of the Console (SharePoint, File Share, and Public Folder) are installed.  However, the license will only be activated for Editions that are covered by it.  If an Edition is not covered by the license, the message Invalid license: License key is not valid for the given product. will display in the Activate License Key dialog. A license key that starts with 823, 824 or 827 will not work with File Share Edition since its reintroduction in version 9.9.
