Does anyone know of a way to load dvs files from EV directly into FTI's Ringtail or easily convert the dvs files to msg?

Hi,

You could use this to get the item using the ECM API.

Save the following as get_item.hta then run it.

<html>
<title>Extract Item</title>

Dim ContentManagementAPI
Set ContentManagementAPI = CreateObject("EnterpriseVault.ContentManagementAPI")
 
'load routine
Sub window_onload
   window.resizeTo 555,250
End Sub
 
Sub Submit
  Dim item
  set item = ContentManagementAPI.Item
 
  On Error Resume Next
  dim CurAction
 
  CurAction = "Recombining saveset into MSG"
  item.ArchiveId = ArchiveId.value
  item.Id = Id.value
  item.Content.Data = Content.value
  item.Get(3)
  Message.innerHTML = "<font color=""green"">&nbsp;&nbsp;Complete</font>"
 
  if (err.number <> 0) then
   Message.innerHTML = "<font color=""red""><b>Faild!&nbsp;</b>-&nbsp;</font>" & hex(Err.number)
    msgbox "Description: " & Err.Description & Err.Description, vbOkOnly + vbcritical, CurAction

A DVS contains more than just a .msg file. the EV client is needed to do the conversion

I dont think there is a way to do what you want without including EV


May I ask why you want to do this

Symantec is not able to export the files at the speed we need.  So, we developed a back end process that reads the repository and exports the files from the Filer.  Now we need to convert them.

I don't think there is a supported way of doing this.

You could however get the MSG files from the API instead of exporting to PST.
