Cause

There were mailboxes that encountered a warning status during the archive run that requires the attention of the Enterprise Vault (EV) administrator.  A full listing is provided below:

Status

Warning

Something about this mailbox requires the attention of the Enterprise Vault administrator.

Sub-statuses

Not provisioned

This mailbox has not yet been provisioned in Enterprise Vault. No archiving is possible until it has been provisioned (see FAQ).

Over send and receive limit

The mailbox is over the Exchange send and receive quota limit. No archiving action is possible until either the limit is increased or some of the mailbox content is removed (see FAQ).

Quota not achieved

Archiving has successfully completed on this mailbox, but the combination of policy and mailbox contents mean that the Archiving process has not been able to achieve the Enterprise Vault target quota (see FAQ).

Failed to process mailbox

Some problem has prevented this mailbox from being processed.

No Exchange quota set

None of the three Exchange quota limits (send, receive, send+receive) has been set, so quota based archiving of this mailbox is not possible.

Vault store in backup mode

No messages can be saved to the Vault Store until it is no longer in backup mode. Archiving of this mailbox will be re-tried later.

A full list of all status and sub-statuses are found in article 100040701.

Resolution

The EV administrator needs to investigate why certain mailboxes were not processed by referencing the ExchangeArchivingReport.aspx on the EV server.  The event has the report hyperlinked in it which will direct the administrator to all reports.

While the reports are available in CSV and HTML, it only provides access to the brief version of the archive run.  To get a full report that includes much more data per mailbox, browse manually to the reports in the EV installation directory.  See example below:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Enterprise Vault\Reports\Exchange Mailbox Archiving\\Scheduled\Scheduled_YYYYMMDD_xxxxxxx

If the issue cannot be resolved by analyzing this report in conjunction with the event logs, create a case with Veritas Support to get assistance.
