- Article Type: General
- Product: Alma
Problem Symptoms:
Attempting to activate portfolios took a long time ending with error message: "Connection to server reset"
Many more portfolios were activated than intended
How can these be deactivated and only the correct ones be loaded/activated
Cause:
System timeout
Resolution:
To activate portfolios that are in the portfolio loader input file and delete the rest:
[A] FIND THE PORTFOLIO LOADER
* Search for Electronic Collection (e.g. Gale Cengage Virtual Reference Library)
* Select "Edit Service"
* Select the "Portfolios" tab
[B] DELETE ALL BUT THE PORTFOLIOS IN THE EXCEL
* Select "Load Portfolios"
** Select Loading Policy Types: "Complete"
** Select the option "Delete"
This will delete all portfolios other than those that are in the Excel spreadsheet
