Recover from a crash
Recovering from a crash happens automatically, for example, after an unexpected machine reboot. Once the machine is back up, the Agent service starts automatically and gathers progress data from any crashed jobs and prepares those for the Daemon to retrieve and pass along to the Console for display. Any user migration job that was in… […]
Connectivity between the Daemon and Remote Agents
Migration job files are created by the Console and stored in C:\ProgramData\Transend\tmcd\std_jobs. Numbered jobs appear there with a .JOB file extension. After the Daemon successfully transfers a job file to a Remote Agent, the file gets renamed to .OLD (i.e. – 42.job becomes 42.old). Note: Depending on the number of users migrating and the scale… […]

Rerun a migration
If a migration includes users who ended with errors or warnings, you can rerun the migration to include only the users who were not completed successfully. This can save significant time if you need to address problems that only affect a few users, and do not require an adjustment to the configuration settings or user… […]
