Hi all
I'm just trying to clarify how to go about tidying up our SOFFCONT1 and BDS_CONT1 tables by migrating documents from the database to a Content Server.
Apparently Content Server is set up (via OAC0) and 'new' documents/attachments are successfully being stored in Content Server rather than the database.
But historically this was not so, and we have a huge amount of documents stored at DB level.
I've read note "1634908 - Reduce the size of table SOFFCONT1" and "389366 - Relocation of documents" and plan to use report RSIRPIRL to do this.
It looks like PHIO class SOFFPHIO should be used for the SOFFCONT1 entries and "All classes which start with BDS_P" for the BDS side; but you can't enter BDS_P* in the report and I can't find a list of PHIO classes anywhere - anyone have any ideas?
Also, I've been told that dependant on the type of document, they should go to a different repository - for example, billing documents should go to a different repository. Is this possible? There's the 'Document Area' selection but I don't think you can specify this here?
Some notes/posts about this process also mention transaction SKPR08 - how does this fit in here? The application consultant who has set up Content Server hadn't come across it and didn't have access to run it either - is it relevant in this case?
Is there any way of knowing how many documents there are (and their size) to be migrated? I can count the number of rows returned by RSIRPIRL in test mode but this gives me no idea of size. As there's a huge volume (the tables are about 200GB each) we need to ensure there is sufficient space in the Repository.
Please bear in mind that I have a SAP Basis background rather than a Functional one so I'm struggling to understand this process fully and what all the different document types and classes etc mean.
Thanks
Ross
