Advanced users of the Migration App.

This product is currently in Limited Availability. We invite any Customers interested in using the product to engage Egnyte Professional Services or their Customer Success Manager to have it enabled for their domain.

Context

For any migration job, you have the option to configure various advanced settings, including Empty Folders, Sanitization, Unattended Mode, Confluence. These are all available from the Migration Details Page. If you have Advanced Mode enabled for your domain, you will also have the ability to control Throughput from the same Advanced Options menu.

Enabling Advanced Mode

Before you can access Throughput, you must have Advanced Mode enabled for your domain.  To do this, submit a ticket to support@egnyte.com to request it.  

Accessing Advanced Options

Once Advanced Mode has been enabled for your domain, go to the Migration Details page. In the left column, click on the arrow next to Advanced Options to open the drop-down menu.

If a migration job is currently running a command, you may not modify any of the Advanced Options. You must wait until the command has completed before configuring advanced settings for the job.

You may return to this menu at any time to change your selection. Remember that before you can make any changes, the migration job cannot have a command running.
