Delete FSA placeholders older than x

Hello,

We want to delete all FSA placeholders older than x years old without deleting the files from the archives. Is this possible?

Thanks,

Nils

    Hi Nils,

    As far as I know, there is no such option.

    Storage expiry is your only hope, which will delete based on the retention category defined in EV, but it will delete archived data too.

    Hi,

    Thanks for your reply. Strange that EV has this feature on Exchange archiving but not on file archiving. I guess we have to figure a way to delete these placeholders on the file server using a script or something then.

    Regards,

    Nils
