Small imports (less than 10,000 documents) should not take a long time to complete, and you might want to monitor the entire process. Large imports can require many hours to complete, and you might want to monitor the process only periodically.
During import, the Database Import Wizard progress dialog displays the statistics described in the following table.
| Statistic | Description |
|---|---|
|
Total records |
The number of records found in the source database. |
|
Deleted records |
The number of records flagged as deleted if the source database is an AM-Workflow database. |
|
New documents |
The number of new documents created in the vault. |
|
Skipped records |
|
|
Imported as revisions |
The number of revisions imported into the history of another document, as described in Import Revisions. |
|
Files attached as hybrid parts |
The number of files attached to hybrid documents, as described in Assign Document Types To Imported Files. |
|
Elapsed time |
The time elapsed since the import started. |
The approximate completion time of the import can be calculated by noting the number in Total records at periodic intervals, for example, at 10 minutes or 1 hour. For example, if Total records equals 2,000 at 00:10:00 and the source database contains 100,000 records, the estimated completion time is:
100,000 documents ÷ 2,000 documents/10 min. interval = 50 intervals
50 intervals x 10 minutes = 500 minutes
500 minutes ÷ 60 minutes/hour = approximately 8.33 hours
