Restore and Enable Delivery Schedules

When you restore content from a snapshot or migrate content from a different environment, delivery schedules defined for agents, analyses, and dashboards in the snapshot aren’t restored or activated right away. When you’re ready to restore deliveries on your system, you can decide whether to enable or disable delivery schedules on your system. This is useful as you might not want to immediately start delivering content.

For example, if you're restoring a production environment, you probably want to restart deliveries as soon as possible. Whereas in a test environment, you might prefer to disable deliveries after restoration and activate them at a later date.

1. In the Oracle Analytics Home page, click the Navigator, and then click Console.
2. Click Monitor Deliveries.
3. To restore deliveries, click the Action menu for the page and select Restore Deliveries.
4. Select whether to restore and activate deliveries or restore deliveries only. Select one of the following:

   • Maintain Delivery Schedule Status

     All delivery schedules maintain their status (enabled or disabled).

     • Existing delivery schedules remain unchanged.
     • New delivery schedules created during the restore process inherit the schedule status that’s defined in the corresponding agent, analysis or dashboard.

     For example, this option is useful when you restore deliveries in a production environment where you want deliveries to be active immediately.

   • Disable Delivery Schedules for New Deliveries

     Delivery schedules that are created during the restore process for agents, analyses, and dashboards are disabled. Existing delivery schedules remain unchanged.

     For example, this option is useful when you restore deliveries in a test environment where you don’t need to activate deliveries immediately.

   • Disable All Delivery Schedules And Delete All History (Not recommended)

     All delivery schedules are disabled during the restore process and any delivery history is deleted.

     • Existing delivery schedules are disabled.
     • New delivery schedules created for agents, analyses, and dashboards during the restore process are disabled.
     • Historical delivery details no longer available.

     This option is not recommended. If you do select this option, you must manually enable delivery schedules for all agents, analyses, and dashboards.

5. Click Restore.
6. To activate a delivery, click the Action menu for the delivery, and select Enable.

   To activate multiple deliveries at once, select Shift + click or Ctrl + click to select all the deliveries you want to activate, then right-click and select Enable.

   If necessary, click Edit to redefine the delivery schedule.
