Starting with 9.0.1, header-based authentication single sign-on is also supported for Legal Hold authentication. If header-based authentication is enabled, the custom HTTP header with the username provided by the configured Identity Service Provider (ISP) is used for login through a reverse proxy. The custodian is directed to the Legal Hold notice without the need to enter login credentials. For details, see9.0.1 Legal Hold User Guide.

Configurable option to process partially converted OST files 9.0.1 provides a way to process the partially converted OST files. When theesa.ost2.conversion_partial_successproperty is set to "true" usingSystem>Support Features>Property Browser, the partially converted OST files are processed successfully instead of sending them to theOST_Partial_ConvertedFilesdirectory. By default, the value of this property is set to "false" so that the existing workflow is retained where the partially converted OST files are copied to theOST_Partial_ConvertedFilesdirectory. For details, see9.0.1 Case Administration Guide. Configurable option to generate a slip sheet for excluded items Earlier a slip sheet was generated by default for the items of the document family that are not a part of the Production instead of completely skipping them.

Improvements in archive filtering for Enterprise Vault Collection, Search, and Hold tasks 9.0.1 provides an enhancement in archive selection while creatingEnterprise Vault Collection,Search, orHoldtasks. When archives are deleted on Enterprise Vault after you perform theEnterprise Vault discoveryon eDiscovery Platform, these deleted archives do not appear in the Archive Picker while selecting archives to add to theCollection,Search, orHoldtask. This enhancement prevents theCollection,Search, orHoldtasks resulting into Partial Success when vault store is selected instead of individual archives as the deleted archives are correctly filtered from the vault store. For details, see 9.0.1Identification and Collection Guide. Enhancements in collection set management 9.0.1 provides several improvements in collection set creation and management. For details, see 9.0.1Identification and Collection Guide. Task Description- While creating a collection set, you can hover on the task name to see its identifying information that helps to distinguish the task from the other tasks in the list. You can see "Task description: Task source: Size" if description is present in the collection task. If description for the collection task is not available, then "Task ID: Task source: Size" is displayed. Type Selection- Earlier, you could create collection sets of either“Metadataonly“or“Content and metadata” type. Now, “Content only” collection sets can also be created. Data for this collection set can only be exported in native format. The data is arranged in an appropriate hierarchy with respect to task, custodian, and source. The collection sets created using the "Content only" option do not appear in the list of collection sets on theProcessing>Sources and Pre-Processing>Manage Sourcesscreen. If you need to process the "Content only" collection sets, then you can add the data of these collection sets for processing underProcessing>Sources and Pre-Processing>Manage Sources>Add Case Folder Sourcescreen. Type Configuration- Earlier, the default option on theCreate Collection Setscreen was “Metadata only.” Now you can change the default collection set type by setting theesa.icp.collection.set.create.default_typeproperty using theProperty Browser. The values can be set to set the default collection set type toMETADATA_ONLY,METADATA_AND_CONTENT, orCONTENT_ONLY. Support for collection of additional data sources 9.0.1 supports collection ofFileShareshosted onWindows Server 2016. This release also supports directFileSharecollection ofMicrosoft Office 2016data. The supportedMicrosoft Office 2016file types areOneNote 2016,Word 2016 Documents,Excel 2016 Spreadsheets, andPowerPoint 2016 Presentations. Users may now download a zip file in Distributed Architectureenvironments Previously users in aDistributed Architectureenvironment were not able to download requestedExportpackages, such asProduction,Metadata, andNative Exports. The user was given an info bubble with a location for the zipped file. In a DA environment, not all users will have permissions allowing them access to the designated location on the specified appliance. In this fix, users will have a choice. Selecting theCreate downloadable (zip) fileradio button on the Metadata tab on the export options window gives the user the option to download the export package, instead of accessing it from the specified appliance location.
