Question about re-enabling archiving for a deleted mailbox
Hi,
We use Enterprise Vault to archive emails in our MS Exchange environment. Unfortunately, in a situation of two users having the same name, someone accidentally deleted the Vault of the wrong user. Since then, EV has not archived email for that user. I have queried the ExchangeMailboxEntry table and found that his archive has an MbxArchivingState of 2 (disabled) where it should be 1 for archiving to function.
Is there a standard process for re-enabling archiving for users when their vault is deleted, or am I going to be OK to issue a SQL command to update the value of this field to a 1?
Many thanks for any help.
Andy
All you need to is what Andy said. If the user doesn't show in the Enable mailbox wizard you can see if he is listed in the disable mailbox wizard. You might need to Zap the mailbox and then re-enable and choose to create a new archive for him.
