As it is not easy to find in the documentation I was wondering what happens to the output of the Bulk Extractor (used within the Examine Contents microservice). I understand it is part of an index that is used in the appraisal tab (under examine contents). Does that mean that the output is only part of that index?

Hi Robert,

As you may be aware, I believe Bulk Extractor only runs on disc images - and in that case the reports should show up in the logs folder. See https://www.archivematica.org/en/docs/archivematica-1.6/user-manual/transfer/forensic/

Hey everyone,

Actually, you can run bulk extractor on the Appraisal tab (under Analysis and then Examine Contents) on any type of transfer, not just forensic images. And yes, the report will show up in the transfer log folder and also in the SIP log folder.

Aha – thanks for clarifying, I was just testing a regular transfer.

Thanks Kelly, that's clear. I saw the Bulk Extractor output (txt files) is indeed part of Transfer log directory. And in this way they are also part of the AIP.

Robert
