[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Archon to AS migration data issue

[Jessica Crouch]

Hi Josh,

You are able to bulk delete top containers from the Manage Top Containers area of ArchivesSpace. The Manage Top Containers menu item should be listed in the menu under the gear close to the top right of your ArchivesSpace installation. If you’re not able to access it, you may need to ask your system administrator to adjust your permissions.

The search form for Manage Top Containers gives you a number of options, including searching across a resource for the boxes you would like to delete.  From the results, pick all of the containers you want to remove, then select Delete Top Containers from the Bulk Operations drop down menu. You’ll get a page that allows you to confirm that you want to delete them.  If you confirm deletion, they are gone for good.

There’s more documentation about bulk operations for containers in the user manual here<https://docs.archivesspace.org/Default.htm#ContainersTopContainersBulk.htm?Highlight=bulk%20delete>.

I hope this helps.

Subject: Re: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] Archon to AS migration data issue

Hello,

I'm still having an issue with the Archon to AS migration. After the migration tool runs, there are empty duplicate boxes showing up at the collection-level. Is there a way to remove them all at once or prevent them from duplicating in the first place? Or does each one have to be deleted manually?

Has anyone else had this problem or know where I can find some documentation to fix this issue?

Thank you,

Hi Brian,

Following up.

I re-migrated with all Archon containers set to Intellectual and it did the same thing as with all containers set to Physical.

Is there something else I can do to solve this issue?

Hi Brian,

Thanks for your help.

I re-migrated after changing all containers to both Intellectual and Physical. That made the problem worse. Each folder also duplicated for each item in the folder (i.e. I have 30-40 instances of each folder).

I re-migrated again after changing all containers to just Physical. That created all the empty boxes from before but with none of the actual content.

I have not rerun the migration with all containers set to just Intellectual yet.

Is there something I'm missing?

Thank you,

Hi Josh,

I’m wondering if there might be a problem with Intellectual vs. Physical containers.  Take a look at the Level/Container Manager section in this document https://github.com/archivesspace/tech-docs/blob/master/migrations/migrate_from_archon.md and see if that helps.  If that doesn’t fix things, let us know.

Thanks,

Brian
