Service File Viewer
The Service File Viewer helps you get information about the service files created by the agents. If any PRV or PUB service files are lost due to network or server problems, an administrator can use this utility to determine a PRV or PUB file’s destination in order to locate the file manually.
PRV files are used for mailbox synchronization; PUB files are used for public folder synchronization. The PRV and PUB files contain the service information and the mailbox or public folder data (compressed PST files). For more information about PST files and their use, please see the Mailbox Synchronization and Public Folder Synchronization sections of the Migration Manager for Exchange User Guide.
The Service File Viewer also helps you start, stop, and restart the transmission agents; provides information on the transmission agents’ services; and allows you to view the transmission agents’ log files.
