Table: EVSVR operation types

Operation type	Description
Report	This operation provides a count or listing of the items in vault partitions, or the records in vault store databases or fingerprint databases. For example, a report operation can provide the following: A count of all the files in the site's vault stores that were archived within the last two days. The details of each saveset record in a vault store database.
Verify	This operation does one or more of the following: Verifies the vault store database and fingerprint database records against the vault store objects that they reference. Verifies that vault store objects have valid records in the vault store databases and fingerprint databases. Verifies the vault store database records against the equivalent fingerprint database records.
Repair	This operation does one or more of the following: Uses the vault store objects to repair the records within the vault store databases and between the vault store databases and fingerprint databases. Blacklists any SIS parts that do not verify correctly. After you blacklist a SIS part, archiving a new item with the same SIS part causes Enterprise Vault to create a new SIS part file on disk. Deletes the vault store and fingerprint database entries that are associated with missing items. Recreates any missing saveset and SIS part entries in the vault store and fingerprint databases.

EVSVR can perform operations on CIFS, NTFS, and Centera partitions, and on both collected and uncollected items. Before you can perform an EVSVR operation, you must define it in an operation file.
