Determine FSA Size

Hi,


I've got an old Enterprise Vault 8.0 server running FSA against a single file server.

I'd like to be able to check, if i restored all the items out of the vault then what would the size be?

Basically, is there any way to find out how much data is archived, and is there any way to gauge how much space I need to restore these items.

 

My main problem is that I need to get this upgraded to version 9 and I'd like to put it on a VM that is a much higher spec, so server 2k8 with 64bit etc... so i was thinking of rebuilding the EV server in VMWARE and migrating the data to the  new server.

#

Cheers

Andy

  • That's the uncompressed size of the archived items. So what you see on there will be what you are restoring back to disk.

    Mark has a good point, you should do an upgrade and then use the migrate wizard which will be cleaner and easier for you to perform the upgrade/migrate of EV.
