Dataimport to a new alfrescohost

[Joerg_Schleede]

i try to import many litle files with webdav to a new host.

the files are on a nfs-share. the alfrescohost is mounted with webdavfs.

after a while (ca 1000 files) the copyperformance goes down.

the alfrescohost have enough mem and cpu.

if i run parallel a second (vm)clienthost then the performance on this is high for a while again.

i think that alfresco rate a webdavclient down after a while.

How can i increase the importvelocity again?

what is the best importmethod?

1. Mount nfs-share into the alfresco repo host file system.
2. Do bulk import from the mounted path. Documentation is here: https://support.hyland.com/r/Alfresco/Alfresco-Content-Services/25.1/Alfresco-Content-Services/Admin...

Webdav is deprecated, my advise is to use the CMIS protocol with a client CMIS to import files and folders from a local disk.

Please note that CMIS performs a SYNC rather than an UPLOAD like FTP and Webdav, so after you have imported the documents, it is advisable to disconnect it.

Hi:

In the way commented by Fedorow above, if webdav is not fast enough to extract the data directly, you can try bulk export tool (you have to install an addon - depends on the Alfresco version), and later to do bulk import in the new repo from this extraction.

You may also divide the process, do a complete webdav extraction first to disk, and later a bulk import in the new repo.

Regards.
