About the express and custom modes of the Enterprise Vault Getting Started wizard
The Getting Started wizard enables you to select express mode or custom mode to perform the following:
Indexing configuration
Storage configuration
Policy definition
Exchange target configuration
Domino target configuration
File Server target configuration
In express mode, the wizard does not ask many questions. Instead, the wizard applies default settings so that you can configure Enterprise Vault as quickly as possible. Later, you can use the Administration Console to make changes to the settings, if required.
In custom mode, you can make any changes you require but it can take a long time to go through all the options. You may prefer to accept the default options and then make changes in the Administration Console.
There is a planning sheet that lists the Getting Started wizard's express-mode choices. You can use the sheet to record your own requirements and then later use the Administration Console to make the required changes.
