Email Archival Requirements

To use the Email Archival, you must:

  1. Install and configure the following client-side components described under Client-Side Software:
  • SyncManager: SyncManager is required to keep your primary mail environment and the data center synchronized. See About SyncManager.
  • Mail Redirector Components: Redirector components are required to ensure that your mail is routed correctly during activation and recovery. See About Redirector Components.
  • RecoveryManager: RecoveryManager is required to bring all messages contained in an archive back into your mail environment. See About RecoveryManager.
  • VaultBox: One or more VaultBoxes must be installed in your mail environment to capture, compress, and transfer messages to the data center. See About the VaultBox.
  1. Create one or more retention policies in the data center. Retention policies determine which messages are archived, under what conditions, and for how long. See Retention Policies.
  2. Set up Replication Zones to associate specific mail servers with a preferred series of VaultBoxes within your environment. See Replication Zones.
  3. When using Enterprise Archiving and your organization uses Exchange Envelope Journaling, journaling address(es) must be configured to send messages to Email Archival. See On-Premises Journaling.
