Enterprise Vault 8.0 SP2 release date?

Hello Risto,

SP2 is scheduled for July, hopefully the 1st ;-))

EV8.0 (no SP) with SQL2008 is not supported by Symantec. It MIGHT work, but if something goes wrong, you will be on your own, ie will not receive any support from Symantec.

We'll be upgrading to EV8.0SP2 (hopefully SP3) in september, then move to SQL2008 in october.

Regards,

Thanks for the quick answers!

For what it's worth, I 'm running a test server running EV8 SP1 with SQL 2008 and have had no issues so far.

Getting support if anything goes wrong would be a massive issue.....

What  about running the EV Databases on SQL 2008 in 2005 compatibilty mode ?Would Symantec support that ?

No

It's pretty clear in the Compatibility Guide.
SQL 2005 suppored, SQL 2008 = NOT supported.

Cheers

Just to reiterate we will not support SQL 2008 running in SQL 2005 compatibility mode either until EV8 SP2.

Is it going to have the blackberry mobile search in it?

As I believe this was pulled from sp1

I was wondering with EV8

When I ran through the documentation there is no mention of running exejc for the bcc distribution lists for exchange 2003

is this still required?

I know I had to for ev2007
