What if scenario on an exchange environment?

[NzYme]

Is there a way to run a "what if scenario/report" with a current archive policy on an exchange environment and have it tell you what your disk space is going to look like after it's done archiving??

No unfortunately not, it would be a good request, but the problem is for the SIS, EV has to grab the physical items, run a hash against all of them and see whether or not they can be SIS'd or not, because it will go by the physical item as opposed to just matching up sent/recieved/from/to attributes etc

You can probably kind of guess the base minimum by running in report mode, looking at the reports and have the total size and see what that comes out to, but thats just a pure guesstimate

It would be really good to have such a tool :)

We have consultant in to help with the initial design and he wanted to know if it was possible to grab such information so he could size the storage since we haven't archived anyone except for about 20 pilot users.
