Index locations

Each Enterprise Vault indexing service can store its indexes in multiple locations, and you must back up all these locations. The index locations are listed on the Index Locations tab of the Enterprise Vault Indexing Service properties page.

The following procedure shows how to find the index locations you need to back up on a server called EVServer.domain1.local.

Note:

To find a complete list of all the index locations to back up, you must complete this procedure on all the Enterprise Vault servers that run an indexing service.

To find a complete list of the index locations you must back up

  1. In the left pane of the administration console, browse to Enterprise Vault Servers > EVServer.domain1.local > Services.

  2. In the right pane, right-click Enterprise Vault Indexing Service and click Properties.

  3. Click the Index Locations tab and note the index locations that you must back up.

Before you back up index locations, you should place them in backup mode.

See Enterprise Vault backup mode.
