HOW Auto-Enabling Archives in Enterprise Vault affects EVComplete Migrations

Overview

Enterprise Vault Provisioning can be configured to automatically enable users for archiving.  Effectively this means email will be archived to EV on the next archive run.  It is highly recommended to disable this feature once EV Complete migrations begin so that new data is not migrated to EV during the migration process.  

Solution

1. In the left pane of the Administration Console, expand the vault site hierarchy until the name of the vault site is visible.

2. Expand the vault site and then expand Targets.

3. Expand Exchange.

4. Expand the required domain.

5. Click Provisioning Group. 

6. In the right pane, double-click the provisioning group that will contain the mailboxes

NOTE: if you are using multiple provisioning groups you need to disable the feature on all of them.

7. In the Provisioning Group Properties, click the Archiving Defaults tab.

8. Uncheck "Automatically enable mailboxes" and apply changes.
