File Library and File Jukebox relocation in DP

Instead of c:\ImpFL, apparently the original slot in c:\FL is looked up in the Media Management DB

which is of course not reachable on our CM. (The mediumID is visible in the GUI when defining the

copy session).

For those who’d like to continue anyway, they have to see they can get exclusive access right to the

IDB of DP. Meaning no other action or GUI’s can be open. This to execute:

C:\Program Files\OmniBack\bin>omnidbutil -writedb -mmdb c:\temp\newMMDB

25/07/2008 15:57:39 Exporting compounds ...

25/07/2008 15:57:39 Exporting media ...

DONE!

In the created file cart.txt which is now to be found in c:\temp\newMMDB, we change

\\FL\\

into \\impFLi\\

and \\JB\\

into \\impJB\\

Furthermore one has to check manually the consistency between the different created files before

executing the following upload command:

C:\Program Files\OmniBack\bin>omnidbutil -readdb -mmdb c:\temp\newMMDB

Database import will overwrite old database. All data will be lost!

Are you sure (y/n)?y

Once this is done it’s advisable always to run a testjob to verify the behaviour of your devices.
