Archive Manager for Files 8.5 - ArchiveWeb Guide

Tags

In ArchiveWeb, user can sort emails and documents by adding various tags to them. Tags are logged-on user defined categories. They help the logged-on user quickly find and distinguish emails/documents of one category e.g. important emails, documents regarding one particular event etc.

All tags are listed, edited or deleted under Manage settings/Tags tab. At first we describe how to create tags. Then the process of adding tags to emails/documents is illustrated.

When you click on the Tags tab for the first time, no tags are created. The list view is empty. To create a tag click the New option in the list header. A new row will be added in the list view. You simply specify desired tag properties in the available text boxes:

·Tag Name – enter descriptive name, e.g. “Personal”, “Marketing” or any other

·Background Color – select the tag color or specify your Custom color

·Apply For – tag can be available globally or can be applied only for specific section of ArchiveWeb – Exchange archive, Files archive, Auditing etc. Should you check the e.g. Files archive option, the tag will be available only for File archive items

When all settings have been configured, click the Update option.

NOTE: Not all Tagged items tab functions may be available for the logged-on user. The functions must be allowed for the user. For more information see the Roles and Permissions sections.

Management

 

Management section constitutes centralized dashboard where user with appropriate permissions can manage specific configuration settings in the following sections:

·File Management

Adding, editing and removing of Archive Manager for Files servers which together establish the file archive system. Additionally, with Scheduler capabilities, Archive Manager for Files jobs are easily managed in the same way as on the Scheduler tab of the Enterprise Manager (Archive Manager for Files).

·Search Management

Registering and managing search servers in the environment.

File Management

File management section under Manage Settings / Management is displayed only if Archive Manager for Files is installed and the appropriate permission is set for the user. This section allows managing Archive Manager for Files:

·Archive Servers - managing archive and retrieve servers

·Scheduler - managing scheduler jobs

 

Archive Servers

After clicking the Archive Servers tab, the available Archive Manager for Files servers will be listed in the main pane.

You can change the display name, protocol or port for the given server by clicking the Edit option next to the given server.

By clicking the Delete option the respective server will be deactivated in the ArchiveWeb, i.e. it will not be accessible for the users via ArchiveWeb and it will not be possible to search it either.

To add a new Archive Manager for Files server click New option in the list header. It will add new row to the list where you can specify the File Archive Server properties. Each server (Archive Server) can be backed-up when you enter another server with installed Archive Manager for Files as a Retrieve Server. The Archive Server folders and files will be accessible via ArchiveWeb even when the server is decommissioned/inaccessible. (For more information on this feature see the “Alternate Access Servers” document.)

Finally click Update for the newly added server. The new server will be listed on the Files Archive tab.

Start time - specify the first day when the job should run

Run interval - specify how often the job should run

End date - specify the last day when the job should run

Maximum runtime - specify the maximum time (in hours) during which the job will be running

Search Management

 

Search Management section is displayed only if appropriate permission is set for the user. This section allows managing of Search servers installed in the environment. Specifying search servers on this tab is prerequisite of search functionality. With no search server defined, search is not available.

 

 

After clicking on the Search servers menu, the available Search servers will be listed in the main pane.

NOTE: If web.config file contains information about Search server(s) (this is applicable if upgrading from previous versions of ArchiveWeb) the list will be automatically populated.

 

 

By clicking the Delete option the respective Search server will be removed, i.e. it will not be used for Searches.

To add a new Search server click New option in the list header. It will add a new row to the list where you can specify the Search server properties.

NOTE: Avoid using localhost as Server Name.

 

By clicking the Edit option next to the given server, you can change server properties. The Search Scope marks for which Archive Manager the given search server has been installed (Archive Manager for Files/Exchange).

 

For Location - this property is applicable only for Archive Manager for Exchange search servers. 

For a Search server you can specify a location which the respective Search server "covers" by selecting a location from a "FOR LOCATION" drop-down. This drop-down lists all locations defined in Archive Manager for Exchange in a location where the logged in user has active mailbox.  (For more information on locations see the Archive Manager for Exchange Administration Guide.)

Provided there are more Archive Manager for Exchange locations in the environment and each has it own search server, the given search servers must be listed with correct location.

NOTE: Should there be more locations but only 1 search server for all, leave the For Location property blank.

Federated Search

If you're using more locations, you can setup a Search service for each location. Each Search service will index items on its location.

To setup Federated search (search over more search servers) in ArchiveWeb you have to modify the Search servers (Search Management) by specifying “FOR LOCATION” value.

 

Federated search allows you to collect results from more search servers in one search request.

You can perform federated search over all available (according to permissions) search areas:

·Exchange

·Files

·Common
