Automating Content Deployment

Hi,
I am using SPCDW to deploy content manually in SharePoint 2013 from Farm A to Farm B with no problems, but I need to automate this process (supplied command line code is not working!!). Is there anyway that I can use powershell to read from the saved XML
files and do the export and import?
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

I have resolved this by locating STSADM.exe in SharePoint 2013, just in case anyone is looking!!

  • SharePoint 2007 Content deployment Error: 'A folder with the name already exists.

    Hi, In SharePoint 2007 one Content deployment job is failed with below error:
    Content deployment job 'Remote import job for job with sourceID = some id' failed.The exception thrown was 'Microsoft.SharePoint.SPException' : 'A folder with the name PublishingImages/AEI-2014/Blue already exists.'
    From last 3 days I am getting this error and previously this Job was running without any Error.
    In Import Log file getting message: "FatalError: A folder with the name PublishingImages/sg-2015/yellow already exists."
    Please tell me how to resolve the issue.

    Hello,
    It seems same folder exist in destination server that's why job is failing. You need to check destination server and remove the same name/GUID from site then try again.
    See this technet for more info: (see "Conflicting content on source and destination" section)

  • Content Deployment Job - Schedule

    I have a moderlately large publishing site collection with 600+ sub sites and 12000+ pages. I have received requests to increase the frequency of content deployment incremental jobs from once a day to once every hour. I have 4 web servers and 4 app
    servers. My question is, will increasing the frequency of the job to every hour degrade the performance of live site? I am asking because as people are accessing my live site, the import job will be importing content too, correct?
    I didnt see any best practice around how frequently should the job be run. MS only says that do no have a very long gap b/w jobs but nothing about how frequent is good and what is dangerous.
    Regards, Mahesh

    Hi Mahesh,
    The performance of the content deployment job will be affected by many elements, so it depends on the situation what frequency the job should run.
    As the content deployment incremental jobs deploys only the modified content and items directly linked to the modified content, this increases the chance for problems which can cause incremental content deployment to fail.
    In case that you have a large content deployment running with several GB of content it can happen that the decompression phase takes longer than 600 seconds, and then there will be a timeout. To avoid such Timeout message, you need to increase
    the RemoteTimeout value.

  • Alternative ways of Content deployment

    Hi,
    Can anyone suggest me the alternatives of Content deployment job? Instead of going with CD, is there any other way to help us to achieve the same?
    -Shweta
    Me

    Hi  Shweta,
    For SharePoint 2010 content deployment ,  you can also consider backup &restore and WSP package.
    http://blogs.msdn.com/b/russmax/archive/2009/10/21/sharepoint-2010-granular-backup-restore-part-1.aspx
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc262995(v=office.14).aspx
    And there are some 3rd Party Content Deployment Tools:
    http://www.quest.com/sharepoint/migration.aspx
    http://spdeploymentwizard.codeplex.com/
    Also you could write a web service or delve into the land of SharePoint Object Model coding, that scans the content of your staging environment and maps it into production.

  • Content Deployment Sharepoint 2013 Standard or enterprise

    Hi,
    Is content deployment feature(from one farm to another) a part of Sharepoint 2013 standard edition or enterprise edition?
    Thanks

    Not sure about content deployment source but cross site publishing is only available in SharePoint 2013 Enterprise edition, i suggest you to go for enterprise edition for safe side.

  • Content deployment problem

    An incremental content deployment job that has been working for years between two SharePoint 2007 farms has stopped working. There seems to be a problem with one of the sub-sites, but excluding it from the deployment job does not solve the problem and
    as far as the logs say, some parts of that site are still being exported and imported (unsuccessfully).
    The farms are both post SP3 but not exactly the same version. There also seems to be a slight difference between a specific list in the root sire between the two sites. I am sure the first difference has been around for a long time, the second one I am not
    sure but I am quite positive the error in the import process does not refer to the list in question.
    This is the relevant log fragment:
    [3/16/2015 8:38:44 PM]: Verbose: Updating field ContentTypeId.
    [3/16/2015 8:38:44 PM]: Verbose: Updating field _HasCopyDestinations.

    [3/16/2015 8:38:44 PM]: Completed with 1 errors.
    Changing the site selection or creating a new job with just the root site selected did not solve the problem either.
    We currently cannot run a full deployment job because of disk space limitations.
    Can we do anything besides creating a new content database and starting over?

    Have you had a look at Troubleshoot content deployment and Stefan Goßner's Content
    Deployment - Best Practices?

  • Sharepoint 2013 Content Deployment Issue

    I configured content Deployment from source farm to destination. The content is migarated from source to destionation and updates are went well. But when i update the attachement in Source, it is not getting updated in destination. I can find the below message
    from import log
    [2/18/2015 3:49:03 PM] [ListItem] [1_.000]     Warning: Cannot add attachments because: The specified name is already in use.
    The document or folder name was not changed.  To change the name to a different value, close this dialog and edit the properties of the document or folder.
    Please suggest me

    Hello,
    Looking at the last error message:
    "The remote upload Web request failed"
    there are a couple of possible reasons for this.
    1. No space available on the destination web server
    There needs to be enough disk space for the content to be uploaded to on the destination server. This is done in two stages - the first stage zips and copies the content to the destination server, and the second stage extracts the zip files and adds the
    content to the destination server. You need enough space on the destination server to store the zip files and the extracted content.
    2. Permissions on the destination server
    The content deployment job needs to use a security account that has permission to the destination server farm to perform the deployment task.
    3. Firewall/network settings
    The destination server needs to be accessible by the source server.
    Regards,
    Gavin McKay

  • Content Deployment across Publishing site.

    Dear All, We are now having a requirement in SharePoint 2013 where we will have to move content from one site collection to another site collection. Here we are facing an errors as both the site collections are enabled with publishing features. Can any one
    provide us to perform Content Deployment between 2 site collections having publishing features enabled.
    Thanks in advance.

    I'm not sure I follow the question.  Quick Deployment is just a security setting that allows certain users to tag specific content to be pushed to the target location outside of a regular content deployment.  The process is still the same.  So
    if you can do a regular deployment and your user has the ability to do a quick deployment then you should be able to tag content for a quick deploy.

  • Automated Database Deployment

    Hi,
    I am working on automated database deployment. I have scripted all my database scripts and created a project and solution.
    If I want to implement the new environment from the script I can use msbuild/sqlpackage to apply the all my scripts into that environment.
    I just want to apply only changes into test/prod environment ie., changes like ALTER TABLE, ALTER PROCEDURE,ALTER VIEW to the test/prod environment.
    I am pretty well aware of Redgate SQL Source control explorer and don't want to use it. I looking for MS utilities which can do the same.

  • AppParts and Content Deployment Jobs

    One of our SharePoint customers' environment has a bunch of publishing pages with SP hosted AppParts on these pages.
    Customer prefers Content Deployment Jobs to publish the pages from Staging to Production.
    Is it a viable option to have the publishing pages with AppParts moved to production env using Content Deployment Jobs?
    What are the other recommended options to move pages with AppParts from one env to another?

    Hi ,
    No, as  the page which contains App Parts is related to a SharePoint Hosted App and  a special  isolated app domain.
    For the issue, customer need to migrate the SharePoint Hosted App, such as change the SharePoint Site url in the properties of the SharePoint project , change the client web part page in the app part properties and so on.
