This page describes how to use the Page Structure conversion tool. The tool can be found via the AEM Tools primary navigation, and selecting the AEM Modernize Tools menu item.
Job Listing
Selecting the Structure Conversion tool displays a list of all the previously scheduled jobs. From here the user can view the details of a specific job, or create a new one.
Job Detail View
Job (Buckets) List
If a given scheduling request has over 500 paths that need to be processed, then multiple jobs will be scheduled. The job detail view will allow users to select which job to view the details, using the left panel.
Job Creation
The following configuration options are available when scheduling a Structure Conversion Job.
Job Title
As with all the tools, the Structure conversion tool requires a name for the Job to be created. This helps with identifying the job once it is scheduled and completed.
Page Handling
A page structure conversion has the option of processing the pages using different options.
No Handling
This option will simply process the page as-is in place in the repository.
Restore
Copy to Target
This option will copy a page from the source location, to a new path in the repository. Each page must exist under the source path selection. When processing that portion of the path will be replaced with the target path.
The user scheduling the job must have write access to the target location in the repository, or the job will not be scheduled.
The target path must not have a page that already exists in that location, or that page conversion will fail.
Page Selection
The final step is to select the pages to process. The list will show how many conversion structure rules are found that match the page (Hint, should only be one).
The user may select as many pages as they want; depending on the number more than one job may be scheduled.
