Moving DAM Assets

I have a large amount of DAM assets (mostly PDFs) to move from our Production environment down to our development environments. I have been packaging all of this up via Package Manager and manually installing each package to each environment. I also disable the WorkflowLauncher when installing as described in the Adobe documentation.

I noticed that two workflows get kicked off when installing the packages: DAM Update Asset and DAM MetaData Writeback that eat up a lot of memory/processing time. Since I am only moving assets from one AEM environment to another, is it OK to disable these two workflows when installing content packages?

Thanks in advance!

Here is a very good tool developed by TWC. I have been part of this project so i can say. it worth trying it. It is designed for large data transfer from one system to another.

FYI: CRX Packaging will not help at all in large assets.
