Create a New Replication Job

In order to create a new Replication job, the user must have at least one Replication destination added for their domain. Instructions for how to add a Replication destination are here.

  • Navigate to Content Lifecycle dashboard in Secure & Govern.
  • Select an Egnyte domain from Filtered Locations as the source for the Replication Job. A Replicate button will appear in the upper right corner of the screen.
  • Click the Replicate button to open the Replication configuration wizard
  • On the Initial Setup step of the Replication configuration Wizard, the user must:
    • customize the Replication Job Name
    • select one or more folders from the Source to replicate

      Source files or folders that are included in another existing Replication job cannot be selected for a new Replication job.

    • select from any available cloud destinations
    • specify a specific destination folder.

      The selected folder cannot be the root of the Destination; it must be a subfolder.

    • Click Next after making the selections or Cancel to exit the wizard.
  • The Source Details step confirms the size and number of objects that comprise the Replication Job. Click Next to proceed, Back to return to the previous page or Cancel to exit
  • The True-Up Schedule step allows the user to configure how True-Ups will be handled. A True-Up is a periodic update that can be run for a Replication job. The job’s initial run will replicate all files and folders. After that, True-ups replicate new or changed files and folders only to the Replication destination. The user can configure True-Ups to run:
    • Manually
    • Automatically on a schedule of:
      • Once a day
      • Once a week
      • Once every 2 weeks
      • Once a month
    • Click Next after making the selections
  • The Review step of the Wizard confirms all settings. Click Replicate to proceed, Back to return to the previous page or Cancel to exit.
  • After clicking Replicate, a confirmation pop-up will appear
  • Click Content Lifecycle Settings to access the Replication Job Dashboard, or Close to return to the Content Lifecycle Dashboard.
