Exporting EV archive to .PST for large Exchange mailbox user ?

Hi All,

I'm in the process of exporting around 18+ TB of archived email to .PST files from my Enterprise Vault Version: 11.0.1.3683 so I've got some question that I need to clarify:

  1. Does it consumes the EV server CPU/RAM/Storage or the SQL Server CPU/RAM/Storage or both ?
  2. Does the large archived mailbox that is larger than 20 GB in size can be exported as single .PST? or it will failed given there is a note The size of new PST files will be limited to 20480 MB during the export process.

That's all that I can think of so far in my export process.

Thanks,

JS

      CConsult Thanks for the reply,

      However, this server is already big enough in terms of the VM: 4x vCPU & 16 GB vRAM

      But there are about 100-200 of archived Exchange mailboxes that is already larger than 25 GB in my Exchange server as well as the EV server.

      What do I do about them ?

        there is an option to split PST

        "maximum PST size" when you start the Export Wizard
