    6.6 Hands-On: Technical Analyst Workbench

    Technical Analyst Workbench

    Objectives

    Upon completion of this section of the training, you will be able to:

    • Handle a SIP that failed during Format check  
    • Handle a SIP that failed during MD Extraction
    • Handle a SIP that failed during Virus check
    • Handle a SIP that failed during Fixity check 

    Scenario 1: Handle a SIP that failed in the File Format task

    Introduction

    In this section, we will look at:

    • A Technical Analyst viewing a SIP that failed in the File format task (DROID)
    • A Technical Analyst checking the problem and manually assigning a file format to the file
    • A Technical Analyst moving the SIP to its next stage

    Handle a SIP that failed in File Format task

    1. Enter the Management area.
    2. Select Submissions > Technical Analysis > Technical Issues>
    3. Click on Validation folder to view the SIPs that failed during Validation stack stage.
    4. Choose a SIP from the list that failed because of a File Format Issue
    5. Click Work On.
    6. View the SIPs four tabs: Content List, Metadata, Notes, and History.

    Note: Find the Events that show that the SIP failed during File format task.

    1. Click View and view the file through the viewer.
    2. Close the viewer and click Format. Choose the appropriate format from the list. (search for text format)
    3. Click Add for assigning the format to the file
    4. Click Yes for confirming that the SIP will move to the next stage as a result

    Result: The SIP is moved out of the TA workbench.

     

    Scenario 2: Ignore a SIP that failed in MD Extraction

    Introduction

    In this section, we will look at:

    • A Technical Analyst viewing a SIP that failed in MD extraction task
    • A Technical Analyst checking the problem and allows the SIP to continue its processing
    • A Technical Analyst moving the SIP to its next stage

    Handle a SIP that failed in MD Extraction task

    1. Enter the Management area.
    2. Select Submissions > Technical Analysis > Technical Issues
    3. Click on Validation folder to view the SIPs that failed during Validation stack stage.
    4. Find in the list the SIP that failed with MD Error.
    5. Click Work On.
    6. View the SIPs four tabs: Content List, Metadata, Notes, and History.

    Scenario 3: Ignore a SIP that failed in Fixity check

    Introduction

    In this section, we will look at:

    • A Technical Analyst viewing a SIP that failed in Fixity check
    • A Technical Analyst checking the problem and allows the SIP to continue its processing
    • A Technical Analyst moving the SIP to its next stage

    Handle a SIP that failed in Fixity check

    1. Enter the Management area.
    2. Select Submissions > Technical Analysis > Technical Issues>
    3. Click on Validation folder to view the SIPs that failed during Validation stack stage.
    4. Find in the list the SIP that has files that failed during fixity check.
    5. Click Work On.
    6. View the SIPs four tabs: Content List, Metadata, Notes, and History.

    Note: Find the Events that show that the SIP failed during Fixity check.

    1. Click View and view the file and its metadata.
    2. Close the viewer and click Fixity.
    3. You are about to regenerate fixity values. The existing values will be discarded. 
      If you want to continue and regenerate press "OK", otherwise to go back to previous screen press "Cancel".
      Click OK
    4. make sure that "Move to next step" is selected in the drop down and click on "Execute"

    Result: The SIP is moved out of the TA workbench.

     

     

    Scenario 4: Decline a SIP that failed the Virus check

    Introduction

    In this section, we will look at:

    • A Technical Analyst viewing a SIP
    • A Technical Analyst declines the SIP due to a Virus that was found by the system.

    Handle a SIP that failed the Virus check

    1. Enter the Management area.
    2. Select Submissions > Technical Analysis > Technical Issues
    3. Click on Validation folder to view the SIPs that failed during Validation stack stage.
    4. Find in the list a SIP with files that failed virus check.
    5. Click Work On.
    6. View the SIPs four tabs: Content List, Metadata, Notes, and History.
