Migrating a Closed Partition?

Hello, Is it possible to perform migration of a Closed Vault Store Partition off to a 3rd tier storage (or tape using NBU integration) or does the collections and migrations feature only work with Open partitions?

 

Thanks!

  • I think this should work with closed partitions, too.

    I highly recommend not migrating it to tape, specially if you have Offline Vault in place.

    (Think about what happens if someone has to rebuild OV...)

  • The "Collections" and "Migrations" feature of EV is not index specific.  These advanced features of EV allow you to identify and perform an action against archived data of a given age - irrespective of the status of the index. 

     

    If you use these features, archived data from both closed and open partitions may be included in the collection or migration.

     

    good luck!

  • Well, if your index is corrupt and you would have to re-index for whatever reason, you will be screwed...
