Schedule, monitor, and validate migrations

Schedule migrations at convenient times, monitor their progress, and confirm the transferred data is complete.

Schedule and monitor migrations

Set a migration schedule when you create a transfer to run it during off-peak hours or repeat it to transfer newly added files.

Migration schedule

The tool displays the progress of each migration and sends completion notifications. You can stop a Recurring Job sync and review completed job statistics from the transfer view.

Validate a migration

After a migration completes:

  1. Confirm that all expected data was transferred.
  2. Confirm that shared folders and permissions were mapped to the correct ShareFile accounts.
  3. Run a Storage Detail report to compare data size and file counts.
  4. Preview individual files in ShareFile to verify that they open correctly.
