Importing Business Metadata from a Colossus system
Colossus-based systems support detailed Business Metadata associated with Assets. So
that Delivery Manager can import this metadata when it is retrieving media, the metadata
schema in the Colossus database must be imported into your iTX 2.x Opus Service.
This is done using the OPUS Metadata Tool, which can be installed from the iTX Suite
Installer. For more information on installing this tool see the iTX System Administration
Guide.
To import metadata types with the OPUS Metadata Import Tool:
1 Click Start > All Programs > iTX 2.0 > Metadata Tool
or browse to the location of the tool directly and double click it to run:
C:\Program Files\iTX 2.0\Applications\Metadata
Tool\Omnibus.OPUS.MetadataTool.exe
2 Once the tool has started, select the Core Import tab.
3 Click Config. The
Database Credentials
dialog appears.
4 Enter the administrative details required to connect to your Colossus/iTX 1.4 database:
Locations to Keep:
This MUST be checked. Locations within the Core / iTX 1.4
system where the ITX 2.x system can source the media
from.
For example, if the Colossus/iTX 1.4 system has a
DIVArchive, and ITX can source from DIVA then include the
location name of the DIVA store in a comma separated list.
If you are sourcing media from an iTX 1.4 system, then this
dialog must ONLY contain “
iTX-EXTERNAL
”.
Core Queue Name

DMCoreQueue
