This topic outlines what happens after a smart archiving policy is created.
After the Smart Archiving policy has been defined and created:
Enabled smart archiving policies execute on the scheduled date and time.
The archiving policy can also be manually executed. To learn more, refer to Run Smart Archiving Policy Manually.
Note
We recommend not to run more than 10 policies at the same time.
The Archive policy does not execute when an ongoing mandatory task is in progress (for example, Garbage Collection). If you want to manually Run Smart Archiving Policy Manually or Perform Dry Run on Smart Archiving Policy, try at a later time.
The system archives the packages, along with the associated metadata, and moves them to the Archive Artifactory Instance.
When an item is archived, the system dynamically creates dedicated archiving repositories in the Archive Artifactory Instance.
As the archive process progresses, View All Smart Archiving Runs from the Active Artifactory Instance.
