Verification levels for an ArchiveObjects Verify operation

If you select the ArchiveObjects option for a Verify operation, you must also select a Level setting. This setting determines the level of verification that EVSVR performs.

Table: Effects of the Level settings on an ArchiveObjects Verify operation lists the Level settings and their effects. The table lists the first three levels in order of the level of verification, with the lowest level of verification listed first. For example, if you select the ObjectExtractsFromContainer level, the verification also includes the ObjectContainerExists and ObjectInContainer levels. As the level of verification increases, so does the time to perform the verification.
