Adding a new Skype for Business Archiving target using the Administration Console

You can use the New Skype for Business target wizard in the Administration Console to add a new Skype for Business Archiving target.

To add a new Skype for Business Archiving target using the Administration Console

  1. In the left pane of the Administration Console, locate the Targets node.
  2. Under Targets, right-click the Skype for Business container, and then point to New and click Target computer.

    This starts the New Skype for Business target wizard.

  3. Click Next on the first screen.
  4. In the Enterprise Vault server list, select the Enterprise Vault server you want to associate with the Skype for Business target.
  5. If the Enterprise Vault server does not currently host an SMTP Archiving task, the New Task button is available. Click the button to launch the wizard, and then configure the SMTP Archiving task on this server. A Skype for Business target cannot be associated with an Enterprise Vault server that does not host an SMTP Archiving task.
  6. In the Skype for Business computer box, type the fully qualified domain name of the computer that is running Skype for Business Server.

    For example, skype01.example.com.

  7. If you want Enterprise Vault to start archiving Skype for Business conversations as soon as the target is created, select the Enabled check box.

    If you want to start archiving later, clear the Enabled check box. When the target is created, edit the properties, select the check box, and apply the change to start archiving.

  8. Click Next.
  9. Select the archive in which to store the Skype for Business conversations.

    If you specify an archive that is incompatible with Compliance Accelerator sampling, Enterprise Vault displays a warning. If you intend to use Compliance Accelerator to conduct searches of the Skype for Business conversations that Enterprise Vault has archived, we recommend that you use an SMTP archive.

  10. Click Next.
  11. Click Select, and then choose the retention settings to apply to the conversations that are exported from the Skype for Business computer.

    If no suitable retention category is available, you can create a new one.

  12. Click Next.
  13. Click Finish.
