A vault store group's fingerprint database holds information about each SIS part that is stored in the vault store group. The information includes the SIS part's digital fingerprint, the name of the partition in which the SIS part is stored, and in which sharing boundary the SIS part is shared.
When you create a vault store group, Enterprise Vault creates a fingerprint database for that vault store group.

Note: |
To add or change locations after the fingerprint database is configured is a SQL Server administration task. See your Microsoft SQL Server documentation for details. |
The New Vault Store Group wizard provides the following options for configuring the fingerprint database's SQL filegroups:
A basic configuration, where Enterprise Vault locates the primary filegroup and all the non-primary filegroups on one device.
An option to configure additional locations for the 32 non-primary filegroups. The non-primary filegroups store fingerprint information for archived items and so they can grow rapidly when you use single instance storage. For best performance you need to spread the non-primary filegroups across multiple locations.
For optimal performance, do as follows:
Select the option to configure additional locations for the non-primary filegroups.
Specify as many locations as possible for the non-primary filegroups on the SQL Server, up to the maximum of 32.
Specify a separate device for each location. If you specify more than one location on the same device there is no performance benefit.
