Environment
EV6 SP1 running on Windows 2000 SP4 Server (recently upgraded from EV5 SP5)
Outlook 2003 SP1
Exchange System Manager 2003
Exchange Environment 5.5 but starting to migate to 2003 environment recently created.
Problem consists of:
User manually archives an item. The item is created in the vault (I have checked this, both using Archive Explorer and also searching for the relevent DVS file).
Backup successfully completes but the safety copy is not removed, hence mailbox size doesn't go down, hence grief from the users.
We backup using IBM TSM which relies on a batchfile which creates the IgnoreArchiveBitTrigger.txt before it restarts the StorageService. I can see by the modified, created details that this is happening.
I have also tried manually creating this file and then restarting the StorageService and still nothing happens.
I have also found the DVS file and removed the archive attribute from it as TSM doesn't know how to do this and then waited 24 hours and nothing happened.
Nothing in the Eventlogs to show an issue.
Called Sysmantec Tech Support and they have asked me remove Outlook 2003 SP2 which was previously installed and re-install with SP1 which I have done. They have also asked me to remove ESM 2003 and install ESM 2000 but unfortunately you don't seem to be able to remove this without hacking the registry which I don't really want to do unless I have to!
Has anyone else had this or can anyone suggest anything to test for. Have not run any Dtrace's yet as not sure what to run it on/against. Is there any advanced logging I can switch on that will hopefully show what is not working.
After the upgrade to EV6 SP1 performed by Symantec Consultant it all worked fine (we had other issues that were resolved) this has only started happening this week.
