Active Mailboxes and Deleted AD accounts
Hi,
Vault 11/ 2008 R2.
Our process has always been that mailboxes are enabled for mailbox archiving on Vault. Then when the user leaves, we disable the AD account for a while and then delete when ready.
This is fine (we have set Vault to work for Disabled and Hidden accounts).
However, our "Active Archives" count is double what our user base currently is.
My main questions are.
1) What is licensed here? Active Archives or is it Active Mailboxes?
2) Is there any manual tidy up procedure I should follow.
From the manual, Vault says the following, which sounds like I need do nothing other than delete the AD accounts:
Mailboxes with no associated Windows account are not archived.
This is the correct behavior. The Exchange Mailbox task automatically disables archiving for such mailboxes.
If someone could confirm points 1 and 2 that would be great.
Thanks in advance.
James
