NOTES: The Remove Media and Remove Object buttons can be used to remove
media files and objects from the wizard when creating the archive.
Currently, the archive will not be created unless each media folder
created has at least one media file in it.
All media folders, files and objects will be assigned DMX addresses in
alphabetical fashion.

For CMA Running Mac OS 10.4

To create a Local Archive, you must first create the folder structure recognized by the CMA. The
Creative Local Archive compresses these files into a .dlc format that can be recognized for
uploading. Use the following folder structure in preparing files for a local Archive:
• A top level folder, which contains a Media and Objects folder.
• The Media folder must contain subfolders, and valid files may go into those subfolders.
• Only objects with a .x extension are allowed in the Objects folder (no subfolders).

Creating Content Backup Archive

Backups are created using the Content Archive feature. An Content Archive file is a compressed
file containing all the User Content from a single fixture along with the assigned DMX values for
folders and files.
To create a Content Archive:
1. In the Management Client Window select All Server in the left pane.
2. Select the Server with the content you want to backup in the right pane.
3. Select Create Content Archive from the Media Files or 3D Objects drop down menu or
the right click popup list.

Deploying a Content Archive

Deploying the Content Archive you created restores the user content to a fixture. To replicate
this content to other fixtures on the link, use the Clone Content feature (see Cloning User
Content on page 178).
