All,
We recently had staff changes which led to our locally hosted Archivematica instance not getting moved over to a new/upgraded server. I don't have access to Archivematica and I'm not sure it can be "stood up" long enough to download AIPs and store them on the server I have access to.
I have some AIP identifiers, but I don't know exactly where the AIPs are stored (the directory path). The IT staff have no experience with Archivematica so I'm looking here for assistance with what questions to ask them and get my words in order first. My thoughts are:
1. Can we bring up Archivematica on the old server for me to download the AIPs (I feel like this is a no or very labor intensive, if the old server is no longer active. But I don't know!)
2. Is there any way to know where the AIPs are stored? Search for a UID across all servers, and they'll all be in that directory?
Any thoughts most welcome!
Lauren
