Moving EV Journal archive within site ignoring MaxFailedItemCount threshold?

Hello,

We have a situation in which a VS database is corrupted and there is no backup of it available. In addition, huge amount of partition data was deleted the hard way - files were just deleted from the file system.

I´m trying to work around this, so I created a new VS, and my intention is  moving as much as possible data to a new VS / partition from the old VS whose database is corrupted, but the process fails when the maxfailedItemcount threshold is reached, which is expected in this case.

Question: Is there a way to override any failed items count?

  • hm. tricky one. I am not sure how to work around that failed item count. If you use 'move archive', there should be a movearchive.config file somewhere (not sure on the name!), which might have a setting in there that allows that to go on. I do know the below (also see Registry Guide in documentation). These might help when you have moved items, and do a rebuild index.

    Indexing
    RetryAbandonedFailedItems DWORD
    Location HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\KVS\Enterprise Vault\Indexingset to 0

    Storage (this one is in minutes, not sure if you can set 0)
    OfflineItemRetryPeriod DWORD
    Location HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\KVS\Enterprise Vault\Storage

    set to 1 

    otherwise, ask support..

      Thanks!

      Yes, there´s a EVMoveArchive.exe.config file, I just can´t find what line to add there. Support must have that for sure, so I´ll open a case to ask.

      Have a great day / weekend.
