I am running the SDP to export some data from Cloudant to dashDB.

The SDP status shows that one document is skipped, but the *_OVERFLOW table is empty.

enter image description here

Questions:

  1. What does 'skipped' actually mean? What is the difference between skipped and error?
  2. How can I debug to find out which document was skipped?
  3. How can I debug to find out why the document was skipped?

SDP skips any document where the document identifier starts with '_', such as design documents, attachments, view definitions etc.

These special documents are excluded during discovery and load and there is no mention of them in the OVERFLOW table.

For all other documents the SDP load can result in:

  1. a successful load (no record in the OVERFLOW table)
  2. a successful load but with a warning in the OVERFLOW table
  3. a failed load and error message in the OVERFLOW table

The OVERFLOW table contains the document identifier for every warning and error.
