Hello

Some reference is available in the EMC documentation.

https://support.emc.com/products/24306_Documentum-D2/Documentation/

Document: Documentum D2 4.1 Administration Guide

This is an excerpt from this guide

Name: D2JobImportMassCreate

Description: Import and fill content with Documentum properties based on XML files linked to each file.

XML files must be composed of a root element, document attribute files, and repeating attributes listed under the value tag.

filename-meta.xml enables import of XML content as well as metadata.

Frequency: Once per day

Default state: Inactive

Parameters

•

folder: Path of folders containing the files separated by comma.

•

imported_file_folder: Optional parameter for defining the folder to place successfully imported files. The default setting creates a folder within the source folder.

•

createconfig: Optional parameter for setting the object_name of the creation matrix to use. Default setting uses the r_object_type found in the XML file. Documentum Content Server Fundamentals contains further information about r_object_type.

•

args: Sets the creation profile to use for values. The parameter is only required when you set a createconfig.

•

async: Use asynchronous creation. Default setting is false. This parameter is no longer used due to the usage of D2JobCoreDeQueue.

•

naming: By default, apply naming during the creation process. Set false to apply naming when properties are regenerated.

•

unicity: By default, control is deactivated after naming. Set true to activate control

For a test XML:

Hope it helps!!

Thanks for your reply. But I could not find the guidlines for making the xml. where did you find it?

Also do you know how efficient is the job with BULK data? What if we wan to treat a lot of documents to migrate it into documentum? what will you suggest.

Lakshminarayanan

I have not personally used it but with feedbacks I had from my friends, it should be pretty decent.

By "BULK" - you mean GBs / TBs ?

Another alternative solution would be to hae a custom import/migration utility to mass ingest documents

and then process them using D2CoreJob (you can use a qualification to batch your processing) -

This way you will ensure naming, linking and permission are set as you have set up in D2 Configurations.

There still doesn't seem to be any real documentation on this function.

The job runs for me but doesn't seem to do anything, server logs shows the job ran sucsesfully but it doesn't import anything or show any errors.

Anybody have luck with this?

Documentum D2 v4.2 documentation contains all the information you need to inmport data using the job "D2JobImportMassCreate":

User Guide (https://support.emc.com/docu51892_Documentum-D2-4.2-User-Guide.pdf?language=en_US) : it gives guidelines to create the XML file, including an example.
=> See chapter "Creating an XML File to Fill Properties During Import", pages 50 & 51
Administrator Guide (https://support.emc.com/docu51892_Documentum-D2-4.2-User-Guide.pdf?language=en_US) : it explains how tha import job works and how to configure the job (the most important parameter is probably the path to the folder containing the files to import)
=> See chapter "Configuring XML Import", pages 57 & 58, and chapter "List of D2 Jobs - D2JobImportMassCreate", page 170
