The DocRetriever Console has configurable settings in two categories:
General details. These settings lets you view the location of files for DocRetriever configuration logs and settings, and to affect how content appears and behaves in the DocRetriever Console once you have opened a data source.
Restore settings. Restore settings let you select default behavior for restoring data using the DocRetriever Console. These settings are defaults which you can override any time you restore data.
Use the steps in this procedure to configure general details settings in the DocRetriever Console.

General details options are displayed in the Settings dialog box.

Ask what to do when closing database. If this option is selected, then when the database is closed, the action selected occurs by default. The choices include: Perform full database tree enumeration on open. If this option is selected, then when a particular offline backup is opened, all the sites and sub-sites contained in the database are populated. This allows users to browse the Sharepoint content by expanding the database tree on the left hand side. The initial load time is longer, but browsing through the hierarchy of items within sites then takes less time. Show deleted items. If this option is selected, then all items that have been deleted from the offline backup are shown (along with items that have not been deleted) when browsing content in the DocRetriever Console. A red X marks each item that has been deleted or placed in the recycling bin, to differentiate it from other items. Grouped. If selected, then items will be grouped by type in the SharePoint view in the DocRetriever Console. For example, images, ASP applications, attached documents, and so on will each be grouped together when browsing content in the DocRetriever Console. Search original location. If selected, then when data is restored, each list item is shown in the site collection and its position is also marked in the general topology. | |
The default path is C:\ProgramData\DocRetriever\Settings.xml. | |

Sets the default restore direction. Includes two settings: In place (restore to the original location). Used when restoring an item from the backup to its original location in the live SharePoint site. Out of place (migrate items to another location). Used when moving or copying items from their original location in the backup of a SharePoint application to a new location. For more information about restore directions, see About restore directions for recovered data. | |||||
Skip. When you select this setting as the duplicate action, you direct DocRetriever to skip the file; in other words, if a file in the offline backup also appears in the live SharePoint site, you are directing DocRetriever not to restore the item from the backup. Overwrite. When you select this setting as the duplicate action, you direct DocRetriever to overwrite a file in the live SharePoint site with the object of the same name from the offline backup. Create Duplicate. When you select this setting as the duplicate action, you direct DocRetriever to restore the object from the backup to the live SharePoint site as a copy. The restored item name will be incremented. For example, if the object is a list called Stone Arrows, the restored duplicate will be named Stone Arrows1. | |||||
Merge containers. If you select this setting, then by default, when restoring data, the restored item will be placed in the live SharePoint site in containers with the same names as the containers in the offline backup. | |||||
Deleted. If DocRetriever Console restore settings are configured to show deleted items, then when this option is selected, the default behavior for each instance of restoring data is to restore deleted items. If this option is cleared, then deleted items will not be restored. Permissions. If this option is selected, then when data is restored, the default behavior is for any users restored from the backup to retain the permissions they were granted at the time of backup. If this option is cleared, then the default behavior is for restored users to lose the permissions they previously held. |
5. |
The restore settings are saved and the settings dialog box closes.
CAUTION: Unless you select Use as default and then click Save, default restore settings you establish will not take effect. Be sure to include this step each time you set default restore settings. |
