Validating the archives in the IMPAX 6.5.3
system
(Topic number: 125072)
5.
Verify that the DAA consolidation was successful and that all archives are functioning properly in
the new IMPAX 6.5.3 system.
To validate the archives in the IMPAX 6.5.3 system
1. Log into the IMPAX Administration Tools.
2.
On the Daily tab, click Job Manager.
3. Ensure that a PACS Archive queue exists.
4.
Click Study Manager.
5. Query the system and confirm that, as expected, studies in the old system with a DAA location
(for example, T) now have a PACS location (P).
6. To validate retrieval from the archives, perform the following tests:
a. In the IMPAX 6.5.3 Administration Tools, open the Study Manager and select some
studies marked as PACS archived (P). In the IMPAX Client, view the studies.
A study is retrieved from the PACS archive (the old DAA archive) only if it does not exist
in any cache.
b. In the IMPAX 6.5.3 Client, display a study with a PACS location (P).
c. In the IMPAX 6.5.3 Administration Tools, open the Study Manager to archive a cached
test or sample study to the HSM archive. Carefully delete the test or sample study from
all caches. In the IMPAX Client, display the study.
Migrating image data
(Topic number: 125197)

Important!
This task applies to sites that have a DAA archive and need to migrate studies from it to the
HSM archive of the new IMPAX 6.5.3 system. Or, to sites having to migrate studies from
Network Gateway caches on an old IMPAX system to IMPAX 6.5.3.
Use the Volume Migration Tool (VMT) to migrate image data. For VMT software and documentation,
refer to http://ftp.agfa.be/HE/software/PACS/General/VMT/ (user name and password required)
