Additionally, there were some changes to DCOM in sp1. So if you are on the base version of EV I would recommend getting to sp2. Since you only have a small number of users enabled it sounds like you are piloting, so it would be worth getting to the latest and greatest. If you download the sp2 from the support site. When you do there will be the documents from Updates.htm and PrevUpdates.htm, the changes I am talking about is mentioned in the PrevUpdates.htm. If memory serves you should not need to have the skipchecks in if you are on sp2.
Here are some support docs for your viewing pleasure:

http://support.veritas.com/docs/279588
While one tells you to set the key to 1 and the other tells you to set the key to 0, notice that in the 278336 it clarifies that it is a one time fix.
"This is a one-time fix. Therefore, if Enterprise Vault administrators require the SkipChecks registry entry set to 1, they can reset this value to 1 and restart the Admin service."Message was edited by:
