Retrieving one mail at a time
Single mail can be downloaded or restored using the eDiscovery view by end users logging into their vaults using the Self Service access.
Retrieving mail in bulk
For bulk retrieval, there are two options available
- Using the export feature of the eDiscovery interface of Vaultastic Active Store
- Using LegacyFlo service to extract data to S3
The comparison between these 2 options is as given below:
| eDiscovery for Vaultastic Active Store | LegacyFlo | |
|---|---|---|
| Access to the feature | Available to end users who have Self Service or Full access | Available to the administrators of the organization via the VAULTASTIC4-S3-ZIP or VAULTASTIC4-S3-PST requests. |
| Output format | EML in ZIP or PST files | EML in zip or PST files |
| Content | The search results are exported. Depending on the search, the contents can be across folders. Depending on the user access the content can be across vaults. | The content of a single vault is exported with a single LegacyFlo request. To download from multiple vaults, multiple requests will have to be submitted. Can export entire vault content or narrow it down by specifying the date range and source folder. |
| Mail Size Limits | If the search results contain mail greater than10MB, they will be skipped | No limits on mail size |
| Export size limit | 5 GB The export is not allowed if the search result size is more than 5GB | No limit |
| Zip size limit | Configurable. If the total export is greater than the max size, multiple zip files are created | A single zip file will be created |
| Access to the exported content | The links to exported content is shared via email. The links are valid for 7 days. | The exported content is created in an S3 bucket in your account and can be downloaded using a tool such as S3browser. |
| Monitoring (For long-running jobs) | Not Available | Available via LegacyFlo interface |
| Performance | Medium | Fast |
| Cost | As per LegacyFlo export | As per LegacyFlo backup to S3 cost |
