Guide to using the Transfer Monitor
The Transfer Monitor is used to monitor all iVDR transfer jobs and their status. A
transfer job is created for each “send to” or “import” operation. Once created, transfer
jobs are added to the transfer job queue where they are dispatched in a first in, first
out basis. Up to four transfer jobs can execute simultaneously. Any additional jobs
wait in the queue. You can use the Transfer Monitor to check the status of your
transfers.
