Final validation of migrated files

Verify that the source and destination files match according to the session log data
- in other words did all go as expected and/or has anything changed since.

The verification results are applied to the internal database view migrated_files.

What the verification process do:
  • Verify the file existence on both source and destination.
  • Compare the timestamps (the column [Modified]).
    Verification results: ExistIdentical, ExistOlder, ExistNewer, NotExist, Error are applied to the columns: [verify_source_result] , [verify_destination_result]
How to set up the process of Final validation is as follows:
  • in a DataETL/For-Each Step select Internal database source and the
    database view migrated_files.
  • Set your filter/criteria for what file copy actions you want to verify.
  • Select the scope for the verification action you want to perform.
  • Run the Step
