About Folder Sync
Folder Sync version [version] provides an add-on service for Veritas Alta Archiving that synchronizes users' on-premises Exchange and Office 365 mailbox folder structures to Alta Personal Archive. Folder Sync [version] also supports folder synchronization in hybrid environments where both on-premises and Office 365 mailboxes coexist.
A Folder Sync synchronization does the following for each targeted mailbox, if the mailbox has an account in your company's Veritas Alta Archiving archive:
It synchronizes the mailbox's folder structure to Alta Personal Archive.
It moves the archived items in Alta Personal Archive to their synchronized folders.
If users create, rename, or move their mailbox folders, or move items between mailbox folders, Folder Sync updates the Alta Personal Archive folder structure and the item locations during subsequent synchronizations.
If you migrate a synchronized mailbox from on-premises Exchange to Office 365, Folder Sync can map the migrated mailbox to its on-premises original, and reassociate the synchronized folders in Veritas Alta Archiving.
The initial setup procedure takes you through the steps to create the Folder Sync SQL Server database, and to install Folder Sync's management console. You can then use the management console to configure the connections with Veritas Alta Archiving and your on-premises Exchange servers, or Office 365, or both.
From Folder Sync's management console you can then run, schedule, and manage the Folder Sync task that performs the mailbox folder synchronizations. You can start a synchronization manually at any time. You can also set up regular scheduled synchronizations. The scheduled synchronizations can be set to target automatically any new mailboxes that get added between synchronizations.
Note:
Alta Personal Archive supports up to 10000 synchronized folders.
Folder Sync is purchasable on a per-user basis. Contact your Veritas Alta Archiving support representative for more information about purchasing the service.
