Cause

This issue can occur when certain network ports are blocked on the EV Indexing server servicing the Archive being Searched.

 

Resolution

The EV Indexing server, and any associated firewalls and/or routers/network devices should be reviewed by the onsite network administration team to verify the required ports are open. The ports most specific to CA/DA Searches are ports 80 and 443. However, other ports may also cause this issue. Here is a list of the most common ports used by EV, CA and DA:

53    DNS for User and Computer Authentication, Name Resolution, Trusts.
80    HTTP client access and web search.
88    Kerberos for User and Computer Authentication, Forest Level Trusts.
135    DCOM.
137    NetLogon, NetBIOS Name Resolution for User and Computer Authentication.
139    DFSN, NetBIOS Session Service, NetLogon for User and Computer Authentication, Replication.
389    LDAP for Directory, Replication, User and Computer Authentication, Group Policy, Trusts.
443    HTTPS client access and web search.
445    Active Directory.
636    LDAP SSL for Directory, Replication, User and Computer Authentication, Group Policy, Trusts.
1024 - 65535    Dynamic DCOM.
1433, 1434    SQL server communications.
3268    LDAP GC for Directory, Replication, User and Computer Authentication, Group Policy, Trusts.
3269    LDAP GC SSL for Directory, Replication, User and Computer Authentication, Group Policy, Trusts.
5114    Official EV services port.
8085    CA/DA server to websites and server to client communications.
8086    CA/DA server to client communications.

 

 

Issue/Introduction

Enterprise Vault (EV) Compliance Accelerator (CA) and Discovery Accelerator (DA) Searches fail and list a time out error with hex code 0x80041c71 for the affected Index Volume(s) under the Search Details 'Information' column. Retrying the Search results in the same behaviour. The EV Event Logs on the Accelerator server may show Event ID 297 entries as listed below. A DTrace on the Accelerator server of the AcceleratorService process during a Search may show entries as listed below.
