Restoring Object Lists

You can restore object lists through the Robot Save Object Archive using four different strategies.

From the Object Archive History:

  • Select the object list from the object archive and restore it as it was last saved, regardless of the objects currently included in the list.

  • Select a version of the object list as of a specific date, regardless of the current contents of the list.

From the Object List:

  • Select the object list to restore, locate the most recent version in the object archive history, and restore that version.

  • Build an object list by selecting specific objects from the object archive and restore the newly-built list. This creates an object list from the history records only and should be done by an operator.

    Note: If you create an object list in this way using the Robot Save object archive:

    • The new object list must be backed up before you can restore the objects added to the list.

    • You should not revise the list at a later date using Robot Corral.

Each of the object archive panels contains a function key that allows you to start and stop adding objects to an object list. Once you start object list collection (by pressing the function key), you can select objects from any of the object archive panels and include them in a new or selected list (created in Robot Corral). The only restrictions are:

  • You can add documents only to a Directory-type object list.

  • You cannot add individual members to an object list unless the list is created with List Members separately set to Yes.

  • Object lists created by adding objects from the Robot Save object archive should not be revised using Robot Corral.

See the Robot Corral User Guide for complete information on creating object lists.
