		<GeneralSection><Paragraph class="Default">Moving archives</Paragraph>
			<Paragraph class="Default">As the disk nears capacity, you must move the archive files. A system administrator has the following three options to move reports:</Paragraph>
			<Paragraph class="Default">1) Move archives with the session.</Paragraph>
			<Paragraph class="Default">This method is the easiest and slowest method of moving files. Type a new base path and select a range of archived reports to be moved, then click Move. All files in the selection range will be moved to the same location below the new "base" path.</Paragraph>
			<Paragraph class="Default">2) Move files on OS level and correct the database with this (Move) session.</Paragraph>
			<Paragraph class="Default">Simply move on OS level a directory tree with archived reports to another location on the disk.</Paragraph>
			<Paragraph class="Default">Subsequently, run the Move session and choose the new path to ensure that the resulting files are found at the correct location on the disk. If the source file does not exist, and the target file is found, the ERP LN session will correct the database.</Paragraph>
			<Paragraph class="Default">3) Move files to offline storage and use the alternate path from the parameters session.</Paragraph>
			<Paragraph class="Default">A system administrator can choose this option IF files must be moved to offline storage, such as tape or CD-ROM/DVD. In this case, the files must be moved on OS level. The database, however, remains unchanged!</Paragraph>
			<Paragraph class="Default">The parameters session contains the field Alternate Path for Archiving. If the reprint session cannot find an archived file at the location specified in the archive, the reprint session tries to find the file below the Alternate Path rather than the Base Path. Example: The parameter Alternate Path for Archive is set to /mnt/cdrom</Paragraph>
			<Paragraph class="Default">Archived file:</Paragraph>
			<Paragraph class="Default">/base/INVOICES/year_2003/month_10/joeuser/INVOICES00000000324</Paragraph>
			<Paragraph class="Default">If this file cannot be found in this location, the system tries the following:</Paragraph>
			<Paragraph class="Default">/mnt/cdrom/INVOICES/year_2003/month_10/joeuser/INVOICES00000000324</Paragraph>
			<Paragraph class="Default">As a result, if you move yearly or monthly archived data to a CD-ROM, to easily use the data, you can set the Alternate Path for Archiving to the CD-ROM drive of the ERP LN server and simply insert the applicable CD-ROM.</Paragraph>
			<Paragraph class="Default">In addition to the selection ranges for Company, Report Archive Group, and Print Date, the following fields are important:</Paragraph>
			<Paragraph class="Default"><Link href="/baanerp/tt/aad/ttaad3445m100#delete.reports" role="formfield">Move/Delete</Link>
