Repairing a replica in an advanced storage area

You can use Content Consistency Checker to repair a replica in an advanced storage area. Replica repair occurs in the background, performed by a content replication queue sweep on Content Platform Engine.
Important: Replica repair is not a substitute for maintaining full backups of your content. Use Consistency Checker only to repair a replica with a limited number of content files that are corrupt or missing, not as a means to maintain a backup of another storage device.

Before you begin

This procedure assumes the following items:

Procedure

Run the following procedure on every advanced storage area with which the replica is associated.

To repair a replica in an advanced storage area:

  1. Follow the steps in Validate a storage area.

    For better repair performance, set a date range to limit the data set to only the data that requires repair.

    In the Validate Storage Areas window:

    • The read-only field Storage Area(s) in Auto Repair mode is set to Yes if the content integrity options on the advanced storage area are set correctly.
    • Select the Suppress Error Logging option.
  2. When Content Consistency Checker completes validation, rerun it on the advanced storage area until the error count goes to zero.

    When the error count is zero for all advanced storage areas with which the replica is associated, the replica is repaired.
