Enterprise Vault "Retrieval of saveset failed." and cannot retrieve archives

One of my users is getting this error when he tries to retrieve an email older that 2011. This is the only user affected and we have not changed anything. I am not sure if the bottom two errors have anything to do with what is going on but the top on happens right after I try to open the archive. He has a lot of them that he cannot open so I know he did not delete these ones.

 

"Could not show this item.

Try again. If it still fails, Contact your help desk.

The item is no longer in the vault. The system cannot find the file specified"

 

On the server side I am getting this error

"

    Hi,

    1. First Check whether the CAB file "Collection103792.cab " present on location or not ?

    Location : E:\Enterprise Vault Stores\2011 10 Oct\2011\03-16\9\Collection103792.cab

    2. If CAB file not present then try to resotre it from Backup and then try to retrive it.

    3. If CAB file present then try to extract it and check whether it contain the .DVS file.

    4. Have to excluded the location from antivirus scanning because some time antivirus program corrupt the files.

    5. Have you migrated the CAB to secondary storage ?

    I take it you confirmed whether the cab file exists or not? What version of EV btw?

    First 3 errors looks to be pointing that saveset or associated CAB file does not exist in physical location.

    Can you check, inside the partition, collection  "2011\03-16\9\Collection103792.cab" file exist physically? If yes then check, Does the DVS "A05B\905B136C0C362EED9380A872EF65DB81.DVS" exist in CAB file?

    If CAB does not exist then you need to restore it via backup and place it on above mentioned location.

    Sorry for taking so long to respond. I have been swamped with other tasks at work that were higher priority . A little more background on what happened. We merged an old EV setup in our corporate EV. The user had all of his information exported from the EV setup where he was located and re imported into the new EV setup at corp. We did this to consolidate resources instead of having them spread all over.

    I cannot find his CAB files. We have not moved anything. I am new to EV and not sure how to pull out the CAB from backup. Those are missing.

    Once again I am sorry for not responding quick enough.

    Thanks for update, your backup team would be in better position to give missing CAB "2011\03-16\9\Collection103792.cab". You can restore backup set to alternate location and just pick up the missing CAB and place it in original EV location.

    So there is nothing that I could do myself to fix this issue? and how would they go about getting these specific cab files.

    If these CAB file cannot be recovered then as a last resort you may need to run EVSVR in repair mode with action "DeleteSurplusRecord", You can use date range in order to limit scope of rapair operation.

    You need to take backup of EV enviroment & Please contact support for recommendation OF using EVSVR.

    As EV-Counselor mentioned  -  To restore the items the Backup Team would need to restore the item from the EV Server backup and restore the below file:-

    E:\Enterprise Vault Stores\2011 10 Oct\2011\03-16\9\Collection103792.cab

     

    If the cab file does exist in the backup media then there is nothing that can be done unfortunately and again as EV-Counselor said you would need to remove the entries from the SQL DBs so that you didnt get any event log errors.

     

    But at the end of the day, if the file isnt in that location, you do not migrate to secodary location and the Backup Team is unable to recall the item then there is nothing more you can do, the item (As well as all others in the CAB) is gone.
