Notes on configuring archiving based on age and quota with a script
You can use an Enterprise Vault Policy Manager script to configure your archiving strategy for a mailbox.
For information about Policy Manager, see the Utilities Guide.
An example script is shown here. This script applies settings for archiving based on age and quota to a mailbox. It also configures a special folder to override the mailbox-level settings.
The first part of the script configures the mailbox as follows:
Archive items that are older than three months.
Archive items that are larger than 4 MB immediately.
If necessary, continue quota-based archiving until 30% of the mailbox storage limit is free. Quota-based archiving starts with any items that are larger than 1 MB and more than one day old.
Create shortcuts, and delete the original items.
The second part of the script configures a mailbox folder that is named \Inbox\Special Project
as follows:
Archive items that are older than 0 days.
Do not create shortcuts, and delete the original items.
You might want to configure a special folder as shown here as an alternative to manual archiving. Users can move items into the folder, and Enterprise Vault automatically archives the items soon afterwards.
The example script is as follows:
[directory] directorycomputername=evserver sitename=evsite [mailbox] distinguishedname=/o=First Organization/ou=First Administrative Group/ cn=Recipients/cn=recipient_1 ; Using Age & Quota based archiving ; [filter] name=AGEANDQUOTA ; Quota settings ; Archive to 30% of quota is available ; Start with large items >1MB that are more than 1 day old UsePercentageQuota=true PercentageQuota=30 UseInactivityPeriod=true QMinimumAgeThresholdPeriod=1 QMinimumAgeThresholdUnits=Days QPrioritizeItemsOver=1024 QPrioritizeLargeItems=true ; Age settings ; Archive all items older than 3 months ; Archive all items >4MB immediately.
