About the preparatory steps

After you have completed the preparatory steps in Table: Steps to prepare Enterprise Vault for classification, you can begin to set up your Veritas Information Classifier policies.

Action

More information

Step 1

Ensure that you meet the requirements for implementing classification.

See What you need.

Step 2

Check that a suitable cache location exists in which Enterprise Vault can temporarily store the items that it submits for classification.

See Checking the cache location on the Enterprise Vault storage servers.

Step 3

If you have not already done so, set up the Data Access account. Enterprise Vault uses this account to communicate with the Veritas Information Classifier.

See Setting up the Data Access account.

Step 4

Run a PowerShell cmdlet to enable the Veritas Information Classifier on all Enterprise Vault servers.

See Enabling the Veritas Information Classifier on all Enterprise Vault servers.

Step 5

For extra security, we recommend that the Veritas Information Classifier uses HTTPS with SSL for all connections to it.

See Configuring the Veritas Information Classifier for secure client connections.
