About retention of archived items

When Enterprise Vault archives an item, it automatically assigns a retention category to specify how long to keep the item. Your administrator can set up different retention categories for different types of data, such as Business or Legal. As Enterprise Vault monitors the vaults, it can then delete any item whose retention period has elapsed.

Retention categories are usually under the control of the administrator. If your administrator has set up Enterprise Vault for the migration of PST files, you may be able to change the retention category of PST files that you choose to migrate.
