We are still using 7.5 in our organisation. I am aware there is an archive move feature in version 8, but is it possible to bult move archives from one server to another? I would like to do some load balancing of the numbers of archives across our EV servers.
Thanks for you answers. Guys, I have spoken with Symantec and they have confirmed this functionailty will be in a future release. It looks to be in 8 SP4. As I mentioned before this is not a problem as we are only just starting to think about the upgrade and by the time we actually do it SP4 will be out in the wild.
It looks like the archive-shuttle is over kill for my needs since I am not migrating from one EV system to another, or migrating an aquired company into my environment. I am just looking to load balance the number of archives between my six servers. Some are carrying more than twice the load of others.
Hi
You will not he able to do this without using 3rd party utils.
The most popular are archive shuttle by us (www.evtools.net) (which Wayne will recommend to you, too :) ) or TransVault.
For integrated functionality, you would need to upgrade to 8sp3 and wait until move archive is officially released.
Cheers

MichelZ, i think its a bit disingenuous to say it can't be done with out 3rd party tools as the PST export/import is the traditional method
albeit a slow and cumbersome one, EV does have the ability to do that
