Disable-EVClassification

Disable-EVClassification lets you disable the File Classification Infrastructure engine or Veritas Information Classifier engine. This cmdlet does not let you disable both engines. Run the cmdlet on an Enterprise Vault server.

If you disable a classification engine and later want to reenable it, you can do so using one of the following cmdlets:

  • For the File Classification Infrastructure engine, use Import-EVClassificationFCIRules or Publish-EVClassificationFCIRules.

  • For the Veritas Information Classifier engine, use Initialize-EVClassificationVIC.

Disable-EVClassification is provided by the snap-in Symantec.EnterpriseVault.PowerShell.AdminAPI.dll.

Syntax

Disable-EVClassification [-FCI <SwitchParameter>] [-VIC <SwitchParameter>] [-SiteId <String>] [<CommonParameters>]

Parameters

Table: Disable-EVClassification parameters

Parameter

Description

-FCI

If specified, disables classification using the File Classification Infrastructure engine.

-VIC

If specified, disables classification using the Veritas Information Classifier engine.

-SiteId

The ID of the Enterprise Vault site in which to disable the specified classification engine. If you omit this parameter, Disable-EVClassification checks the registry to determine the ID of the current site.

You can use Get-EVSite to obtain the site ID.

Examples

  • Disable-EVClassification -FCI

    Disables classification using the File Classification Infrastructure engine. As no site ID is specified, the cmdlet checks the registry to determine the ID of the current site.

  • Disable-EVClassification -VIC -SiteId 198...example.com

    Disables classification using the Veritas Information Classifier engine in the specified Enterprise Vault site.

Output

This cmdlet returns an object of type Symantec.EnterpriseVault.PowerShell.Commands.ClassificationEngine, which has the following properties.
