Veritas Alta™ Archiving : Folder Sync 1.14.0 Administration Guide

Folder Sync 1.13 introduced the following new features and improvements:

• Support for mailbox folder synchronization for both on-premises Microsoft Exchange and Microsoft Office 365.

• Support for hybrid environments, where both on-premises Exchange and Office 365 mailboxes exist. If you migrate a synchronized mailbox from on-premises Exchange to Office 365, Folder Sync can map the migrated mailbox to its on-premises original, and reassociate the synchronized folders in Veritas Alta Archiving.

• You can now configure multiple instances of Folder Sync to provide load sharing, or to provide redundancy in the event of a server failure.

• A revised and redesigned All Mailboxes table shows the synchronization status of all mailboxes, whatever their Exchange location. You can filter the information using the column filters, or use the group view to group the information based on the values in a selected column.

• Improved performance, with an increase in the number of supported concurrent processing threads.

• Improved scheduling. Previously for a scheduled synchronization the ScheduleRestartPeriod value set the delay period after all mailbox synchronizations completed, before reprocessing started. Now, the reprocessing of the mailboxes starts if the ScheduleRestartPeriod has elapsed since the oldest processed mailbox was processed.

• The Item Synch task has been renamed the Folder Sync task.

• The task configuration settings now include an Include Shared Mailboxes option. If you select this option, Folder Sync includes shared mailboxes in the list of mailboxes that can be selected for folder synchronization.

  This option replaces the Folder Sync 1.12 configuration file setting for including shared mailboxes.
