Evault modify retention and message

Hello

 

I search a solution to this problem :

 

I have set a duration of 9 months for an user, so the email older than 9 months from exchange go to the evault database.

 

Now I want to change this setting and fix to 12 months. How could I make to transfer easily the mails between 9 months and 12 months old in evault database to exchange (and to avoid manually transfert) ?

Thanks

    In that case use the Export Archive Wizard to restore the items back to the mailbox, you will have an option to use a date range:

    1. In the left-hand pane of the Administration Console, right-click the Archives icon.

    2. On the shortcut menu, click Export.

    3. Work through the Export Archive wizard to complete the export.

    But be aware that the restored items will not be eligible to archive until the modified date, the date you restore them, reaches a year, (if that is your new policy), unless you set the IgnoreEVDates registry key.

    In the vault admin console, go to the users Mailbox Archiving Policies and you can change the age based archiving rules there

    Yes I know this but the email that are on evault storage are not transfered automaticaly in exchange pool.

    I want that the email between 9 and 12 months come back to exchange server and not evault archive.

    So you want to restore anything younger than 12 months from EV to exchange?

    younger than 12 months (the new duration) and older than 9 months (the old duration)

    I would not recommend trying to restore the mail back, instead change the policy and just let the new policy take affect.

    I agree with Tony, just let the policy run. The result will be that from now on all items older than 1 year will be archived, since all data older than 9 months already is archived no data will be archived for the coming 3 months.

    I know that if I wait all the mails will be OK

     

    but the directors want to have now their email (between 9 and 12 months)

    Depending on your setup, you can use the archive explorer, virtual vault or just click the shortcuts to open the messages.
