Veritas Enterprise Vault™ Registry Values

Enterprise Vault provides the following filtering features:

• Selective journaling.

  This feature provides simple filtering of Exchange Server journaled messages. You set up a filter for the Exchange Journaling task that selects, by address, the messages to archive. Other messages are deleted.

• Group journaling.

  This feature enables the Exchange Journaling task to mark selected messages, in order to reduce the scope of subsequent searches. This can be particularly useful where there is a high volume of journaled email and you want to be able to identify messages sent between particular groups of users.

• Custom filtering.

  This feature provides more sophisticated filtering for the following:

  • Exchange mailbox, journal, and public folder archiving

  • Domino mailbox and journal archiving

  • File System archiving

  In each case, a filter controls the behavior of the archiving task during an archiving run.

  For Exchange and Domino server archiving, generic filters are shipped with Enterprise Vault. You create rules to control which messages are selected and what action the task takes. The rules can select messages by matching one or more attributes, such as email addresses, subject text, message direction, or the value of certain message properties. The rules also define how selected messages are processed. This can include assigning a particular retention category, storing in a specified archive, deleting attachments of a specified type or size, and deleting or marking the message.

  Filtering for File System Archiving lets you select files by matching certain file attributes, and apply a given filtering action to selected files. For example, the file can be archived with or without creating a shortcut, a different retention category can be applied, or the file can be deleted. No generic filter is shipped for File System Archiving. You can create a filter using the Enterprise Vault APIs.
