Hi Folks,
I am working with an external vendor to migrate a very old (8.5 on aix 6.2!) CMOD system to FileNet
We came across an application group that our vendor cant migrate, as their utilities are only good for AFP for some reason.
It's PDF, and my plan is simple, arsdoc get against the load ID since there is not many, only about 60 or 70 of them.
However, they are large- 600mb each. The vendor isnt sure if their utility will work with such large files.
What is the best, and quickest way to break these loads up? Speed is important. I assume that doing this will be similar in performance as to retrieving these docs on a load by load basis. Each file took about 3-4 minutes to retrieve, which for this exercise is more than acceptable.
Thanks all!

I'd consider retrieving each file individually if the volumes are low. Maybe pull them by date if that results in smaller groups?
You have to do some analysis and talk to the transform vendor about their capabilities.

Yup, thats what I did. Load by load.
each PDF was around 600MB, 2000-2500 docs per. Total of around 175000.
Vendor 1- Basically said no we cant handle that, didnt give much insight if any.
Vendor 2- Took the file, analyzed it, and converted it to the appropriate format that P8 was expecting, and also created the appropriate XML files (OR something, not a filenet guy..)
I probably could have broken it up more by tinkering around with arsdoc, but time is of the essence.
Fortunately Vendor 2 is great 8)
