Handling unmapped metadata at runtime

You can specify what actions a StreamServer application takes if it tries to store a document that contains metadata that is enabled in the archive context but does not exist in Enterprise Library.

There are three options:

•	Warning (the default option) – Logs a warning in the StreamServer application log file and the Archiver application log file.

•	Error – Logs an error in the StreamServer application log file and the Archiver application log file, and aborts the job.

•	Ignore – Ignores unmapped metadata. This metadata is not stored with the document.

To change the default unmapped metadata action

In a Production environment, we recommend you use error or ignore.

1	On the Repositories node, right-click the ELS repository connection, and then click Document Type Mapping.

2	In the Document Types area, in the StreamServe list, click your document type.

3	On the Tools menu, click Properties.

4	In the Unmapped metadata action list, click one of the following:

–

Warning

–

Error

–

Ignore

5	Restart the StreamServer application.
