Manage campaign recorders

If you choose Centralized Content from Campaign as the Drive Mode, and select a campaign Collection of scheduling periods in WFM, which are defined time periods where specific employees target specific workloads., you also need to select the Recorders to which to apply the campaign.

Once you restart the Archiver component after creating the drive, the Manage Campaign Recorders button becomes active. Use this button to select the Recorders on which to run the campaign.

The Manage Campaign Recorders button is greyed out when the server is a Secondary Archive Server in Standby mode.

Procedure

Click Manage Campaign Recorders.

The dialog that is displayed lists all of the Recorders associated with this Central Archive server through the Central Archive role settings in Enterprise Manager. There is one line for each associated recorder.

If no Recorders are listed, check the server’s associations:

Access the Installations tree in the Enterprise Manager and select the Central Archive role on the server.

On the Associations tab, be sure that any Recorders whose content is to be archived through campaigns are selected (checked) and associated with the Central Archive server.
Complete the fields in the Manage Campaign Recorders page.
Click Save to save the settings.
