Concurrent Use of Multiple Object Stores

There is considerable flexibility built into the CA DataMinder support for third party storage solutions. In particular, you can separately configure which object store CA DataMinder uses to store and retrieve data.

For example, you can retain legacy object data in a Centera while storing all new data in a file system or in IBM DB2 Content Manager. In both cases, CA DataMinder enables you to continue retrieving both the legacy data and ‘new’ data when running event searches.

For this example, you leave the Access Node Addresses policy setting unchanged, so CA DataMinder can continue to retrieve legacy data from the Centera. But you set the Data File Storage Location policy setting to ‘File System’ or ‘IBM DB2 Content Manager’, so new data is stored in this location.
