Relocating SOFFCONT1 items to external content server

Question

I've read the other forum threads on this subject but am still having issues with program RSIRPIRL.  Regardless of which Document Area I choose in the selection criteria screen, I cannot seem to locate any of the SOFFCONT1 documents.  I can't use PHIO Class because for some reason it appears all of our SOFFCONT1 records are under the "blank" PHIO Class.  The only Document Area that gives any significant results during the test run is MIME, but these also are not in the SOFFCONT1 table.  Can someone who has used this RSIRPIRL program help me understand how I can use it to relocate SOFFCONT1 documents to our new content server?
Thanks,
Michael

I was experiencing the same issue, where no data was selected with the program run. I worked with SAP Support and get the following informaiton:
You can use this report RSIRPIRL to relocate the data in SOFFCONT1 to your external archive server. To do this;
1) Create a content repository in tr. OAC0
2) Create a category and assigned the category to the content repository you created in tr. OACT
3) Run the RSIRPIRL report using the following paramters:
  a) Document Area: <Keep blank>
  b) PHIO Class: SOFFPHIO
  c) Target Category: ZSOFFHTTP (Example name of new category)
  d) Source Category: SOFFDB
Hope this helps, the information allowed me to get our documents migrated. The only down side is the program doesn't give options to limit the selection to a reasonable number of records. I'm in the process of migrating 1.9+ million records, and it'll take about 8 days to complete (not running over night).
Good Luck
