Setting the Ownership for New Database Folders
177
t Use best effort restore - if you select this option, a restore process restores as many files
as it can without returning errors. This option requires special implementation by
supported third-party vendors to ignore any missing files that are no longer in the
archive storage. If you do not select this option, then the restore process fails when there
are any missing files (the default).
c
The “Use best effort restore” option is not supported by all third-party archive vendors. If
you select this option and your archive vendor supports it, then a restore process restores as
many files as it can without returning errors.

Setting the Ownership for New Database Folders
The Ownership Behavior view lets you determine how the owner is assigned when a user creates
a new Interplay folder in the following applications:
• Interplay Access
• Interplay Assist
• Avid Instinct
• Interplay Window
• Interplay checkin from Avid editing system
By default, the user who creates a folder is set as the owner. As the owner, the user by default has
read/write/delete permission on the folder. In Interplay Access, a problem could develop in the
following situation:
1. Editor 1 owns a folder named Final that contains a sequence named Final_Sequence and has
read/write/delete permission on the folder.
2. Editor 2 has read/write permission on the folder, but not delete rights.
3. Editor 2 creates a folder named Final_2 within folder Final, and thus has read/write/delete
permission on the new folder.
4. Editor 2 duplicates Final_Sequence, moves it into folder Final_2 and renames it
Final_Sequence_2. Referenced assets are selected to be displayed in folder Final_2 (Tools >
Options > Filter Settings), so the master clips that make up the sequence are displayed in the
folder.
5. Editor 2 deletes Final_Sequence_2, its master clips, and its associated media.
As a result, all media for the original Sequence_Final is also deleted (unless there is a reservation
active on the material).
