    Hi,

    You can move Enterprise Vault in it's entirety to the new domain. You then could upgrade to 12.4

    I am however not sure how this works for FSA. I have performed these steps a few times in the last weeks, without issues. You do need to take in account that you need to set a registry key (to be sure in old and new domain), called SyncInMigrationMode. Look in Registry Guide for the exact location.

    The longer run would be to install new EV in new domain. Disable user for archiving in old domain. Move mailbox. enable user in new domain. Use move arcvhive to migrate user archive to new EV. Catch. You cannot move Journal Archives this way, and I believe you cannot move FSA archives this way.

I assume user also received a new account?

Grant that account permissions on the user's own archive, then try again.
