YuJa Archive Restoration

Summary

Archived YuJa recordings can be restored by accessing the video under My Archive in the left navigation of YuJa's My Media area. Users can hover their cursor over the desired video and click Restore. Recordings should be accessible after the restoration process completes in 2-4 days, depending on current processing load of the archive storage service.

YuJa Archive Information

Cloud storage on YuJa is limited — to help us manage the available space, items stored on YuJa but not in regular use may be subject to our regular archive process. Please see the information below to learn more about which items are selected, and how instructors can restore their files to active storage, if needed.

Frequency:

The YuJa archival process occurs approximately six weeks after the end of each semester.

Conditions:

Content may be archived if it meets the following requirements:

  • Instructors' media: Recordings that have had no views for two years will be moved to archive storage. 
  • Students' media: Recordings will be kept for the duration of the semester in which they were recorded plus one additional/full semester. 
  • Proctoring Recordings: After the end of every semester, all YuJa proctoring recordings from that semester will be moved to archive storage.

Additional Notes:

  • Notification: Instructors whose media has been archived will receive an email notification. If you would like to restore any of the affected recordings, please follow the instructions below.
  • Links: When recordings are moved to archive storage, any links that point to them will break. This includes links from your Blackboard course to specific videos. However — if you restore your content, the links will be repaired automatically.
  • Permanent deletion: All student and instructor recordings that have been moved to archive storage and have not been restored to active content will be permanently deleted after one year of being in archive storage.  All YuJa proctor recordings that have not been restored to active content will be permanently deleted after three months of being in archive storage.  After that time, those recordings will no longer be available to be restored.
