We are planning a EV Sharepoint upgrade from 9.05 to 10.04. The upgrade instructions as per page 121 of the upgrade instruction guide
If you upgrade from a Enterprise Vault version earlier than 10.0.2, all the
SharePoint policy rules that you had configured for archiving content types are
upgraded as follows:
If you specified the content type before upgrade, the custom content type
option is selected and its previous value is shown in the text box.
If the content type was not specified before upgrade, then all supported
SharePoint libraries are selected. For example, Document Library, Picture
Library, Form Library, and so on are selected.
If you have HTML shortcuts that were created by versions of Enterprise Vault
earlier than 10.0.2, you must run the EVSPShortcutManager utility. The
EVSPShortcutManager utility converts HTML shortcuts to new shortcuts that
behave exactly like SharePoint documents. For information on how to use
EVSPShortcutManager, see the Utilities guide.
My questions are as follows:
- On the existing EV 9.05 sharepoint we do not have any content type specified. After the upgrade as mentioned above the install will automatically add Document library, public library, etc. So since we didnt have any specified on the EV 9.05 install, am I suppossed to remove the ones that the EV 10.04 upgrade puts in?
- I understand that i must run the "EVSPShortcutManager" utility after the upgrade. Does Symantec provide any metrics as to how long this utility will take? If we have 1mil, or 10mil items?
