Enterprise Vault E-Discovery Standard Edition implementation

It would typically be installed on it's own server.

It has seperate databases.

So if you're not aware of either of those, chances are it is not installed.

The best first place to look of course is in the product documentation which will take you through an installation, and the administration guide which will give you some installation on how to use it.

I'd also suggest you make contact with one of the many Symantec partners to get a better feel for what it does, and what problems it might help you solve.

I moved this to the DA forum as what you have descibed above is for Discovery Accelerator and not Clearwell.

You will not see anything in the VAC for either DA or Clearwell.

Most likely you have a DA server in your environment.  Look on your SQL Server and see if you have a database that is named something like EVConfiguration or something like that.

From there you can run this query.

SELECT *
FROM tblServer

This will give you the name of your DA server. 

Just because you are licensed doesn't mean it is installed however.  If it is, I would highly recommend getting a partner to give you a knowledge transfer of how it works.  You can gain quite a bit from the docuements but it is better to get some training either from a partner or SYMC.  If it isn't, you should consider contacting a partner so they can plan your installation and do a knowledge transer as part the process.
