Steps to start the  Archive Manager for Exchange services

1.If the Post installation Tasks wizard is not already open, you can open the the Post installation Tasks wizard from C:\Program Files (x86)\Metalogix\MAM4Exchange\Tools\LaunchTools\LaunchTools.exe.

2.Click Start next to step 3 to start the services. You can also start services with the batch file available at <Installation folder> > Metalogix > MAM4Exchange > Tools > Start.bat.

info

NOTE: To stop the services at any time you can use the batch file available at <Installation folder> > Metalogix > MAM4Exchange > Tools > Stop.bat.


Steps to configure and verify the Archive Server

Unless you manually change the role, every installation of the Archive Manager for Exchange will automatically assign the Archive Server role to the installed instance. The Archive Server role indicates that this is the primary server and all administration tasks are controlled from this server.

1.If the Post installation Tasks wizard is not already open, you can open the the Post installation Tasks wizard from C:\Program Files (x86)\Metalogix\MAM4Exchange\Tools\LaunchTools\LaunchTools.exe.

2.Click Start next to step 4 of the the Post installation Tasks wizard to open the AMAC. You can also open the Archive Manager for Exchange Administration Center (AMAC) from Start > Archive Manager for Exchange. The AMAC opens.

am-140

3.On  the status bar at the bottom of the window, verify that the Server Role is set to Archive Server.

4.The Address Book Setup wizard opens automatically for a new installation. Click Close to exit the wizard. Then close the Address Book Manager window that opens. For a manual installation, Address Book setup can be done at a later step. For more information see Setup the Address Book.

info

NOTE: Whenever an Archive Manager for Exchange server is installed, the default role assigned is Archive Server. These servers are also identified with a MultiServerID and a LocationID which are integers that default to 1. Large organizations with more than 3000 mailboxes use more that one Archive server. Since the MultiServerID and LocationID of each Archive server must be unique, you must manually change the MultiServerID and LocationID of each extra Archive server by changing the following registry key values. For example, for a second Archive server, set the following registry key values to 2, for a third Archive server set the registry key values to 3, and so on.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > SOFTWARE > Wow6432Node > Metalogix > exchangePAM > MultiServerID

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > SOFTWARE > Wow6432Node > Metalogix > exchangePAM > OfflineStorage > LocationID
