Locate and Migrate partially automates the process of migrating the contents of PST files into Enterprise Vault. It can automatically search for PST files on users' computers and move them to a central holding area, from which they can be automatically migrated.
Depending on the configuration options you select there may be some manual intervention required to approve migration of PST files. Additionally, you may need to supply the passwords for password-protected PST files.
Locate and Migrate comprises several Enterprise Vault task types:
A PST Locator task. This searches your network for computers and PST files. There can be only one PST Locator task in your Enterprise Vault site.
A PST Collector task. This moves PST files that the PST Locator task has found to a central PST holding folder, ready for them to be migrated. There can be many PST Collector tasks in your Enterprise Vault site.
A PST Migrator task. This migrates the contents of PST files that are in the PST holding folder to Enterprise Vault archives. There can be many PST Migrator tasks in your Enterprise Vault site.
