Adding or deleting an SMTP Provisioning task
An SMTP Provisioning task applies the provisioning group configuration to each target user in the provisioning group. This includes linking the target user with the required archive or archives, and applying the group's policy and retention settings to the group members and archives. When processing an SMTP Mailbox Journaling provisioning group, the provisioning task creates a new Internet Mail archive for any group member that does not have an existing Internet Mail archive.
You can add an SMTP Provisioning task manually, as described in this section, or you can let Enterprise Vault add one automatically when you add the first SMTP provisioning group.
The task runs once or twice each day, processing the provisioning groups in the order in which they are listed in the Administration Console. You can also use the option on the task properties or context menu to run the task immediately.
If you want to host an SMTP Provisioning task on a new server, you must delete it from the current server first. You can then add the task on the new server.
To add an SMTP Provisioning task
- In the left pane of the Administration Console, find and then expand the Enterprise Vault Servers container.
- Expand the container for the server to which you want to add the SMTP Provisioning task.
- Right-click the Tasks container, and then click New > SMTP Provisioning Task.
The New SMTP Provisioning Task dialog box appears.
Complete the fields and then click OK. The dialog box prompts you to specify the following:
The domain with which to associate the task.
The name of the task.
Whether to start the task now. If you want to configure the task before it starts, turn off this option and follow the instructions in step 5.
The settings include the times at which the task runs each day and the level of reporting that it undertakes for each provisioning run.
- To configure the task, right-click it in the right pane, and then click Properties.
The online Help provides detailed information on each field in the properties dialog box.
To delete an SMTP Provisioning task
- In the left pane of the Administration Console, find and then expand the Enterprise Vault Servers container.
- Expand the container for the server from which you want to delete the SMTP Provisioning task, and then click the Tasks container.
- If the SMTP Provisioning task is running, right-click the SMTP Provisioning Task for domain, and then click Stop.
- Right-click the SMTP Provisioning Task for domain, and select Delete from the shortcut menu.
- In the warning dialog box, click Yes.
Enterprise Vault removes the Provisioning task from the Administration Console.
