Implications of restarting EV services and DA Accelerator services
Hi Environment is EV 9.0.2 We currently restart the following EV services nightly: Enterprise Vault Task Controller Service Enterprise Vault Storage Service Enterprise Vault Shopping Service We do this for historical reasons as we did it in our older EV8 environment, I believe it was to clear up MAPI sessions andkeep the system running more smoothly. Is this still necessary? Does restart these EV services impact DA searches and exports? What's the impact? Does restarting the DA Accelerator service impact DA searches and exports? What's the impact? thanksSolved4KViews0likes10Comments
DA 11 no customer database update
Unfortunately I did not follow these instructions from the beginning. So I started to install a dedicated EV 11 server from the install media by using the install wizard. This server came on top to our 3 server environment with EV 10 (plus additional SQL server), where each server got a dedicated task. One for FSA, one for indexing, one for archiving. In general I wouldn't mix up the EV versions, but as the DA server holds non of the above mentioned services and we are going to upgrade to EV 11 in the near future I decided to install the EV11 basics with DA 11 Then I followed the instructions here above and I could go through it smoothly. I could successfully create a customer database, but interestingly the database is not able to update. Error message in evbaadmin: ExecuteNonQuery requires an open and available Connection. The connection's current state is closed. Event ID 59: APP ATM - Failed to update database.

How to put CA into read-only mode
Hi, We are performing DR failover testing and would like the EV and CA servers to be in backup mode. It is straight-forward to put EV into backup mode. We do have journaling connector installed and random sampling enabled. Anyone know how to do it for CA without shutting down the CA Admin service? The conern is we don't want the default sampling runs to happen at 8pm and 1am. But we do want to bring up CA on the DR server to test. I see there is an option to uncheck "Enable background processing of captures items". Would that stop the pre-smapling and sampling from running at the prescribed times? Thanks,Solved2.5KViews0likes6CommentsDiscovery Accelerator search results inaccurate
We continue to experience inaccurate results which consist of items for a non-selected user that does not meet the criteria in the search. We have tested with two different searches that produce very different results. We use the following search criteria for a search that gives us not only the specific users hits for the day, but another user is included in the hits which appears to only meet the date criteria and not the to or from criteria selected. This is created using a specific date range which is Oct. 3rd - October 3rd. Search terms to or from and we select a single user name by clicking on the target and custodian icon on the right. Miscellaneous - Message type is set to all content sources. On the other hand, when we run the same search by typing the name in the to and from field, "first last" then we do not get the additional user listed in the hit however, we do not get the Instant Messages either. Has anyone heard of this? Any assistance is greatly appreciated. Thanks.Solved2.2KViews1like12Comments

Compliance Accelerator - Adding phrases with wildcards to Hotwords
Hi, As per the administrator's guide for Compliance Accelerator, one must use double quotation marks when adding phrases to hotwords. Can I use wildcard words when adding a phrase to the hotwords? For example if I want to add the following phrase to the list of hotwords: a comp* word If yes, then how would I do it?Solved1.7KViews0likes3CommentsCompliance Accelerator with Mailbox Archiving
I am trying to use Compliance Accelerator to search user's mailbox archives. I created a new department and marked the Mailbox Archive as searchable. I gave the ev account all the nessecary roles on the department. However when I create a search it doesn't run. I have another department for the journalled mail and I'm able to search that without any issues. Is there some other permission somewhere that prevents me from search mailbox archives?Solved1.6KViews0likes2Comments
Order of upgrade for DA 10.0.4?
Just reading Upgrade instructions for 10.0.4. On page 34 it states; Order of upgrade in an environment with Compliance Accelerator or Discovery Accelerator If the Enterprise Vault environment that you are upgrading includes Compliance Accelerator or Discovery Accelerator, the Accelerator version must be upgraded to 10.0.4 or later. The Accelerator version can be up to one major version higher than Enterprise Vault, but it must not be lower than the version of Enterprise Vault. See the Enterprise Vault Compatibility Charts at http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH38537. You must upgrade the Accelerator product before you upgrade Enterprise Vault. Perform the upgrades in the following order: Upgrade the Accelerator product. Then upgrade Enterprise Vault on the Accelerator server. Finally, upgrade Enterprise Vault on the Enterprise Vault server. This is a change from previous upgrades, where you had to upgrade EV first, then EV components on DA server and then DA itself. Can anyone confirm? Anyone did DA 10.0.4 upgrade yet?Solved1.5KViews1like5CommentsCompliance Accelerator 9.0 configuration
