The Shortcut Sync job keeps the shortcut information in the Archive Manager database consistent with the shortcuts in the Microsoft Exchange Server. The Shortcut Sync job searches through synchronized mailboxes for shortcuts to items that are archived in the HSM store. Archived items in the HSM store without shortcuts in the Microsoft Exchange server are marked for deletion or purged if their retention time has expired. The retention category used for archiving these items must be configured to allow the Shortcut Sync job to operate.
To define a Shortcut Sync job:
1.From the Manager view, click the Jobs tab.
2.Right-click inside the left pane. Select New job from the context menu. The Job Settings window opens.
3.From the General tab select Shortcut Sync. Enter a name in the Job name text box.
4.Click the Scheduler tab and set the scheduler properties as described below:
a.Scheduling starts at - enter the date manually or by clicking the upward or downward arrows, and time (directly by overwriting the time).
b.Scheduling ends on - select this option to specify a date when the scheduling ends. Click the date picker icon to open the calendar and select the month and date. The default is Never when the option is not selected.
c.Schedule interval - specify a period following which the job restarts itself. Click the upward or downward arrow. The period can be set in minutes or days.
d.Allowed time [hours] - enter the archiving period by clicking the upward or downward arrow. The minimum allowed time is 1 hour.
5.Click the Options tab and select the options as described below:
a.Synchronization - select this option to perform a standard shortcut synchronization of mailboxes or public folders. If mail items are moved to another mailbox or location, then duplicate mail items are archived.
|
NOTE: Standard shortcut synchronization is included in all the other options even if this option is not selected. |
b.Promote delayed shortcuts - select this option to create a normal shortcut for email items that are bound to a retention category configured to delay shortcut creation for a specified period. If the Shortcut Sync job discovers email items for which the shortcut creation delay period has expired, a normal shortcut will be created for the archived email item.
c.Recover documents with shortcuts - select this option to recover documents marked for deletion. If the Shortcut Sync job discovers a shortcut which has an archived document marked for deletion, then the document is recovered.
d.Delete shortcuts for removed documents - select this option to allow the Shortcut Sync job to delete shortcuts from the Microsoft Exchange Server when the job discovers archived documents that are purged by the Delete Files job.
A user could have decided to delete a shortcut to an archived item from Microsoft Outlook if it is no loner required or could have moved the shortcut from one folder to another. If the user clicks the Delete archived messages icon on the toolbar or Delete selected messages from the Archive Manager for Exchange menu of the Archive Manager Outlook AddIn, then such items are marked for deletion in the HSM store. These items are kept in the HSM store during their retention period. When the retention period and keep-alive time expires for items marked for deletion, they can be purged by a scheduled Delete Files job. If the job is not scheduled, emails remain in the archive.
If the user selects archived items and clicks the Delete icon on the Outlook toolbar or clicks SHIFT + Delete on the keyboard then the corresponding shortcut is deleted since these are Microsoft Outlook commands and not Archive Manager Outlook AddIn commands. Shortcuts that are deleted with Microsoft Outlook commands will lose their reference to the corresponding archived item in the HSM store and will not be marked for deletion in the Archive Manager database. These are considered as lost items.
Any lost item can be restored by the administrator during its retention period until you run the Shortcut Sync job. When the job runs, all lost items are marked for deletion. They cannot be restored from the Archive tab in the Archive Manager for Exchange Administration Center. Use this job when you are sure that no more lost items must be restored and that the space they occupy could eventually be released for use when the retention period expires. Even though items marked for deletion cannot be easily restored they can still be discovered during their retention period using the advanced search because they are retained in the HSM store. To find the documents marked for deletion, use the Advanced Search icon on the toolbar () or the Archive Manager Outlook AddIn in Outlook. In the Archive Manager Advanced Search window, the items that are marked for deletion will be displayed with a blue icon.
e.Delete expired shortcuts - select this option to delete shortcuts for email items that are bound to a retention category configured to delete a shortcut after a specified time. If the Shortcut Sync job discovers shortcuts with expired time, then the shortcut is removed from the Microsoft Exchange server.
f.Delete archived items without shortcuts - select this option to mark archived documents for deletion when the corresponding shortcut is removed from the Microsoft Exchange server.
|
IMPORTANT: You must select all mailboxes and public folders when you select this option. Shortcuts can be inadvertently moved to another mailbox or location manually. Without synchronizing all mailboxes and public folders, the Shortcut Sync job may not find the shortcut for an archived item and could remove the item. |
