Creating and arranging archive groups

The sidebar organizes archives into predefined groups based on archive type, such as Email, File, and SharePoint. These predefined groups cannot be modified. However, if you have access to a lot of archives, you can add the frequently-accessed ones to a custom archive group so that you can quickly find them.

To create and arrange archive groups

  1. Click your user name at the top right of Enterprise Vault Search.
  2. Click Preferences.
  3. At the left of the Preferences dialog box, click Archive Groups.

    The archive groups options appear.

    Archive groups options
  4. Click the plus (+) button to create a new, empty, archive group.

    A text box appears in place of the new archive group where you have to enter the name.

    The new archive group you created is empty. You need to add archives to this group.

  5. In the Archive Groups list, click the archive group that contains the archive that you want to add to the custom group.

    The Archives list displays the archives in that archive group.

    Predefined archive group names are displayed in normal text and custom archive group names are displayed in italicized text.

  6. Right-click an archive that you want to add to the new archive group.
  7. Point to Copy to Custom Archive Group.

    The names of custom archive groups appear in a drop-down list.

  8. Select the custom archive group to which you want to add the selected archive.
  9. Click the up arrows and down arrows beside the archive groups in the list to change their order in the sidebar.
  10. Clear an archive group to hide it from the sidebar.
  11. Select an archive group and click the Actions button to view options available to edit an archive group.
