Automatic migration of content conversion settings
The Enterprise Vault content conversion functionality is extended to use the functionality that is provided by the Windows TIFF IFilter feature.
Content conversion was previously configurable at server level using registry settings. In this release it is configured at site level. This ensures that conversion is implemented consistently across storage servers in an Enterprise Vault site.
To support this feature, new Content Conversion settings are added to the advanced site settings in the Enterprise Vault Administration Console. During the upgrade process, the new settings are added to each site with default values.
If you previously configured conversion registry settings on an Enterprise Vault server, the setting values are evaluated during upgrade. On each Enterprise Vault server in the site, existing content conversion registry settings are logically upgraded and then deleted if their values match the equivalent site setting. If the value differs from the site settings default, then the registry setting value overrides the site setting value on the local Enterprise Vault server only.
Table: Content Conversion site settings and registry settings shows the association between new Content Conversion site settings and existing conversion registry settings. All the registry settings are under the following subkey:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\KVS\Enterprise Vault
