Customer Profile
Financial Institution based in London, UK. The customer has around 1,500 archives held within Mimosa NearPoint. With a total of nearly 90 million items which required migrating into Symantec Enterprise Vault which sits in a new domain.
The customer uses Enterprise Vault to keep mailboxes lean in size and to help facilitate any future Exchange migration.
Requirement
As part of a branch centralisation, the customer was removing two domains and migrating all users into one centralised domain including Active Directory information and Exchange Mailboxes. As such, the mailbox archives, which were used in the two domains to reclaim space from the Exchange Servers, required migrating to associated Enterprise Vault archives.
The requirement was to provide a solution that would enable the users to have all their archived information on the new domain while being able to access their items at all stages of the project.
Solution
MirrorSphere provided the customer with the Email Archive Migration solution, TransVault Migrator. TransVault Migrator allowed the migration of archived information sitting in a separate domain in another archiving platform, Mimosa Nearpoint, to the target Enterprise Vault archives in the new domain. Archives were migrated to corresponding Symantec Enterprise Vault archives using two separate workflows, one for each domain. MirrorSphere handled the migration by:
- Installing and configuring the TransVault Migrator for optimisation in their environment
- Assigning the archives to the relevant Enterprise Vault archives in the new domain
- Grouping the archives in manageable batches for TransVault Migrator to handle, using best practises
- Providing assistance throughout the migration with any issues
