Configuring the capture scope to back up the mailboxes of users using the Alphabetical mailbox scope option
If you have a large number of mailboxes in your Exchange Online environment, the backup scope can become extensive. To manage this scenario, configure the capture scope using the
option. You can map a range of mailboxes to be included in the backup. It helps minimize the load on any one connector. To cover all the mailboxes in your environment, you can configure multiple connectors.Note:
To know more about the maximum number of mailboxes that can be backed up, contact Veritas Support. You can also go to the
page to view your subscription details.To configure the capture scope to back up the mailboxes of users using the Alphabetical mailbox scope option
- From the Exchange settings section, click User mailboxes and then click All mailboxes.
- Click the Alphabetical mailbox scope option and do the following:
Enter the range of email addresses that you want to back up using this connector.
For example, if you specify the start letter as 'A' and the end letter as 'F', all email addresses within the range of 'A' to 'F' are included in the backup scope.
The mailboxes are processed based on the first letter of the email address.
If you are using the Alphabetic mailbox scope, you may need to enable the Include mailbox not starting with the letter option for one of the connectors. It backs up the mailboxes of the users whose email addresses do not begin with an alphabet.
- (Optional) Configure filters to limit the backup scope to specific users based on their Entra ID attributes.
See Filtering users based on Entra ID (Azure AD) extended attributes.
See Filtering users based on Entra ID (Azure AD) group membership.
- (Optional) Configure folder filters to limit the backup scope to specific folders in the mailboxes of users.
See Filtering folders.
- (Optional) Do the following:
Select the Process recoverable items check box to back up the Recoverable Items folder.
Select the Process archive mailboxes check box to back up the archived mailboxes.
- Click Next to configure credentials.
