Common scenarios for editing the configuration

The following sections describe different scenarios for editing the configuration.

Using a NAS Box

Archive Manager’s installer does not support storing attachments on a NAS box, as software is installed on the box, which is most likely not running windows.

If you want to store attachments on a NAS box, use the following workaround:

1
When installing Archive Manager, set the services to NOT start after installation. Install using a normal filesystem storage location.
2
Once Archive Manager is installed, edit the StorageLocation table and change the default storage location to point to the UNC of the NAS box. For example: DATA=\\nasbox\archivemanagerstore
3
You must ensure that all Archive Manager users, ArchiveMgr_Service, ArchiveMgr_ESM, ArchiveMgr_Journal, have full access to that folder.
4
Start the services. They will now load and retrieve attachments from the NAS box.

Deleting attachments from a SnapLock volume

The Archive Manager Retention Engine cannot delete attachments from a Data ONTAP device unless the retention settings in SnapLock contain a retention time that precedes or is the same as the one set in the Retention Engine. The Retention Engine generates errors when the retention settings in SnapLock for attachments on a Data ONTAP device are set at a later time than the Archive Manager retention delete policy.
