Resuming from a failed extraction

If your extraction fails, the IRC Portable Data Extractor lets you resume a failed extraction. Extractions could fail for any of the following reasons:

  • In case of network failure

  • Running out of drive space on the IRC Portable Data Extractor client machine

If extraction for some objects fails, the list of failed objects is maintained in the <ProjectName>.beu file in the project folder. These objects are extracted when you resume from a failed extraction.

Resume from a failed extraction as follows:

  1. On the Select a Project screen, select the option Use an existing project (to select the project that previously failed). A pop up window displays the confirmation message..
  2. Click Yes to resume the failed extraction. Only those objects for which the extraction had previously failed will be extracted.
  3. Click No to run a complete extraction and overwrite existing data.
