Archiving an asset
You can only archive an asset if you are assigned with the archive role. When you want to archive an asset, you can choose whether to copy or move the asset to an archive location.
- In the Asset List panel, select an asset.
- Right-click and select Transfer | Archive Media.
- Select the archive destination.
-
Click
Copy or
Move.
Note: A copy operation archives a copy of the asset to the archive location. A move operation archives the asset and deletes it from its online location.
You can also archive an asset via copy and paste, or drag and drop assets directly into a bin in your archive directory.
The Rename Policy dialog box opens.
You cannot archive two assets with the same name at the same archive location. So, you can either select Rename Automatically or Overwrite in the Rename Policy dialog box.
- From the Navigator, select Monitors | Jobs | Asset Transfers to track the progress of the archive operation.
