Veritas Alta™ Archiving : Folder Sync 1.14.0 Administration Guide

To configure settings for the Folder Sync task

1. Log on to the Folder Sync server using the Folder Sync service account credentials.
2. Click Start > All Programs > ArchiveTools > ArchiveTools Management Console.
3. In the left pane of the management console, expand the Archive Accelerator folder and select the Task List folder.
   
4. In the central Task List pane, right-click the Folder Sync folder and select Properties.

   Note:

   If you have set up multiple instances of Folder Sync on separate servers, the Task List pane shows the Folder Sync task for each server. Select the task for the required server.

5. On the Folder Sync Properties dialog, select the Settings for computer_name tab and enter the required information as described in the following steps.
   
6. Under Mailbox Settings, select the required processing options as follows:

   Process Deleted Items folder	Select this option if you want to provide Folder Sync users with a Deleted Items folder in Alta Personal Archive: If this check box is selected, any items that are moved to the Deleted Items Folder in Outlook appear in the Deleted Items Folder in Alta Personal Archive after synchronization. If this check box is cleared, the Deleted Items Folder does not appear with the other synchronized folders in Alta Personal Archive. Items that are moved to the Deleted Items Folder in Outlook remain in the original mailbox folder in Alta Personal Archive after synchronization.
   Auto Select New Mailboxes	Select this option if you want scheduled Folder Sync synchronizations to target any new mailboxes that are added between the synchronizations. For every newly added mailbox, Folder Sync sets the Selected value to True in the mailbox database table. Note: If you select this option before Folder Sync has performed its first scheduled synchronization, Folder Sync also sets the Selected value to True for all existing Office 365 mailboxes. Scheduled synchronizations target all existing mailboxes in addition to any newly added ones. If you select this option after Folder Sync has performed its first scheduled synchronization, Folder Sync does not change the Selected value for existing mailboxes. Only newly added mailboxes are targeted automatically. Note: Do not select the Auto Select New Mailboxes option unless you have sufficient Folder Sync licenses for the provisioned Alta Personal Archive users in your Office 365 environment.
   Deselect Disabled Mailboxes	Select this option if you want to stop Folder Sync from synchronizing disabled mailboxes. If a mailbox becomes disabled, Folder Sync deselects the mailbox from further processing.
   Include Shared Mailboxes	Select this option to include shared mailboxes in Folder Sync's All Mailboxes list. The shared mailboxes are then available for selection in Folder Sync.
   Include Disabled Users	Select this option to include disabled users in Folder Sync's All Mailboxes list. The disabled users are then available for selection in Folder Sync.
   Concurrent Mailboxes	Select the number of mailboxes to be processed at the same time. The default value of 50 is recommended for most configurations.

7. Under Veritas Alta Archiving, enter the details of your Veritas Alta Archiving environment as follows:

   Server	From the drop-down list, select your Veritas Alta Archiving region. Folder Sync then populates the data center location box with the appropriate value. If your Veritas Alta Archiving region is not listed in the drop-down list, or if you are unsure about what to select, contact Veritas Services & Support. If you select Custom you can enter a customized data center location. Do not use this option except under the direction of Veritas Services & Support.
   Use SSL	Select this check box if you want to use a secure connection between the Folder Sync server and the Veritas Alta Archiving archive server.
   Admin Account	Provide the credentials of the Veritas Alta Archiving administrator account that you want Folder Sync to use. The account must have the administrator role in the Veritas Alta Archiving Veritas Alta View Compliance and Governance Management Console under Role Management > Assign Accounts. Click Select and enter the account user name and password. Enter the user name in UPN format, such as administrator@company.com
   Test Connection	When you have entered the Veritas Alta Archiving configuration information, click Test Connection to test whether Folder Sync can make the connection to your Veritas Alta Archiving company with the supplied details.
