Propagating assets to other Xmedia Servers
Categorisation Propagation Exceptions
Categorisation Propagation Exceptions are raised when a propagated asset fails to be
categorized due to a name clash. Figure
18-11 demonstrates that in such a case, the
propagated asset is temporarily renamed within the recipient server’s category until the
name conflict is resolved.
Figure 18-11. When a name conflict occurs the asset is propagated and temporarily renamed
The Categorisation Exception’s message clarifies exactly what naming conflict occurred
during propagation (figure
18-12 ). Attempting to clear the categorisation exception, without
resolving the name conflict first, prompts an error message that indicates the necessary
actions required before the exception can be cleared. The resolution often involves either
renaming, deleting, or moving the asset that was already in the category. Once offending
asset is removed/renamed, the exception can be cleared and the propagated asset is
automatically renamed again.
