Internet Information Services (IIS) 7.5 and
7.0
• Changing the Authentication Mode for
Internet Information Services (IIS) 6.0
About Authentication Modes
Archive Manager supports either Windows Authentication or FormsAuthentication to provide secure access to the Archive Manager application: • Forms Authentication uses an HTML-based form to process sign in
information and is more suitable for providing access to Archive Manager over the Internet.
• Windows Authentication uses any security models established by using Microsoft Active Directory or Windows NT LAN Manager (NTLM). Windows Authentication is required to enable offline access to archived email with Microsoft Outlook. When running Windows Authentication with a Windows environment, multiple failed sign in attempts can lock out an Active Directory account. This specific number is dependant on the Default Domain Policy set on the Domain Controller:
Computer Configuration | Windows Settings | Security Settings | Account Lockout Policy | Account lockout threshold
If you change between Forms and Windows authentication, you must also change settings in Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager.
Changing the Authentication Mode
in Internet Information Services
(IIS) 7.5 and 7.0
To change the authentication mode in IIS 7.5 or 7.0, complete the following steps:
1. Select the desired authentication mode on the Archive Manager Administration Website.
2. On the Archive Manager Web server, run Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager.
3. Expand the Site node and highlight the Archive Manager Website. 4. Under the IIS heading, double-click the Authentication feature. 5. When the Authentication feature opens, enable the desired
authentication option.
• For Forms authentication, Anonymous Authentication should be enabled and Windows Authentication should be disabled. • For Windows authentication, Windows Authentication should be
6. Click the DefaultInstance node and verify that the Authentication feature settings match the Authentication feature settings for the Archive Manager Website.
7. You must also update the authentication mode in the Retention Instance. (Repeat the steps listed above, but for
RetentionInstance rather than DefaultInstance.)
Changing the Authentication Mode
for Internet Information Services
(IIS) 6.0
To change the authentication mode in IIS 6.0, complete the following steps:
1. Select the desired authentication mode on the Archive Manager Administration Website.
2. On the Archive Manager Web server, run Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager.
3. Browse to the node:
Internet Information Services | SERVER_NAME | Web Sites | ARCHIVE_MANAGER_SITE_NAME
4. Right-click the Website node and select Properties from the shortcut menu.
5. Go to the Directory Security tab and click the Edit button in the Authentication and access control area.
6. Select an authentication mode (Forms or Windows) and select the checkbox to enable it.
7. Either select or de-select the Enable anonymous access option. • For Forms authentication, Enable anonymous access box should be
checked.
• For Windows authentication, leave this box unchecked and select one of the Windows authentication modes.
8. Click the OK button.
9. You must also update the authentication mode in the Retention Instance. (Repeat the steps listed above, but for the

About Data Loaders
The Data Loaders Administration section controls where the Archive Manager data loading service looks for email messages. There are five types of services:
When you install Archive Manager, a File System data loader and a Journal Report data loader are installed. The Journal Report data loader is only used if you use one or more MAPI, POP3, or IMAP4 data loaders for journaling. You may need to add additional File System data loaders depending upon your
environment.
A data loader is characterized in Archive Manager by its Type, and by a Start Time and End Time to determine the time frame within which each data loader can start processing email. For example, if you enter a start time of 12:00 a.m. and an end time of 3:00 a.m. for a MAPI mail account, the data loader can start
METHOD DESCRIPTION REQUIRED ATTRIBUTES
File System
Reads messages directly from a file share. Reads files from the Export directory and loads the message data into the Archive Manager Database.
Path
MAPI
Offloads messages from Exchange Journal mailboxes into the export directory and loads the journal envelopes into the Archive Manager database.
Server, UserID
JRDL (Journal Report Data Loader)
Links the emails referenced by the journal envelopes to the mailboxes of
the sender and recipients. None
POP3
Offloads messages from POP3 Journal mailboxes into the export directory and loads the journal envelopes into the Archive Manager database.
Server, UserID, Password
IMAP4
Offloads messages from IMAP4 Journal mailboxes into the export directory and loads the journal envelopes into the Archive Manager database.
Server, UserID, Password
Note: MAPI is the required service for a Microsoft Exchange server. IMAP4 and POP3 are not supported for Exchange.
processing the journal mailbox anytime between 12:00 a.m. and 3:00 a.m. If the data loader completes processing the journal mailbox at 2:58 a.m., it will start over and process the entire journal mailbox again because 2:58 a.m. is within its time frame (Start Time and End Time) to start processing. The data loader will not stop processing at 3:00 a.m.
This can be useful in situations, for example, where email may be processed over a slow network link and you want to designate the time frame within which the data loader can start processing different mail accounts.
A MAPI data loader is used with an Exchange messaging system to offload messages from the Exchange Journal folder(s) into Archive Manager. Exchange’s native journaling features consume a great deal of system resources, processing power as well as disk storage capacity, whereas Archive Manager handles data archives much more efficiently. You can dramatically improve overall system performance by using MAPI data loaders to continuously offload data from Exchange to Archive Manager.
The Journal Report data loader links the emails referenced by the journal reports to the mailboxes of the sender and recipients.
In addition to its Type and Start and End Time, a data loader is defined in Archive Manager by several other field values that vary depending on its Type:
• File System:
• Name: The friendly name that you want to call the data loader. • Path: The path from which the data can be loaded; this can be a
defined drive letter or a UNC path.
• Active (checkbox): Defines whether the data loader is active or inactive.
• MAPI:
• Name: The friendly name of the mail server. • Server: The name of the mail server; for example,
server.yourdomain.com
• User ID: The login required by the server. For the MAPI data loader only the username (e.g. ArchiveMgr_Journal) is needed. This can be replaced with a Legacy Exchange Distinguished Name if there is a possibility of conflict or ambiguous names. The LEDN should be in the format: /o=Domain/ou=Exchange Admin
Group/cn=Recipients/cn=ArchiveMgr_Journal.
• Password: NO password is needed for this type of the data loader. Note: The Enable Store Management box is checked by default in Archive Manager in the mailbox for the journal user. This box must be unchecked so that the mailbox is not processed by the Exchange Store Manager (ESM). Journal mailboxes should be processed by the MAPI loader.
• Active (checkbox): Defines whether the data loader is active or inactive.
• JRDL:
• No required attributes. • POP3 or IMAP4:
• Name: The friendly name of the mail server. • Server: The name of the mail server; for example,
server.yourdomain.com.
• User ID: The name used to sign into the POP3/IMAP server. This is usually the username (e.g. JournalUser), but may need to contain the domain or other information, depending on the POP3/IMAP server. Please refer to your POP3/IMAP server documentation for more information.
• Password: Enter the password for the journal mailbox user. • Active (checkbox): Defines whether the data loader is active or
inactive.
Data Loaders and Outlook Message
Classes
GroupWise does not discriminate among message types or "classes" the way Outlook does, so the information in this section applies only to Archive Manager installations configured to work with Exchange/Outlook messaging systems.
If the MAPI data loader runs before the Active Directory Connector has synchronized the ArchiveMgr_Journal user into the Archive Manager database, the JDL will not find the user in the Archive Manager database and it reports the following error:
Unable to obtain server DN for user
'WIN2K3ENT//o=First Organization/ou=Exchange Administrative Group
Once the Active Directory Connector finishes synchronizing, the error message will not display.
In an Exchange system, by default, Archive Manager data loaders will load all standard Outlook item types into the archive except Journal entries (activities), regardless of message class. Archive-able items include the message classes listed in the table below, which also shows what Archive Manager can do with each item type.
MESSAGE CLASS COMMON NAME EXPORT*? STRIP*? AGE*?

• Export: Add to archive.
• Strip: Stripping (or leaving a message Stub) in Exchange, to reduce overall storage size on the mail server.
• Age: Delete messages or message stubs from Exchange based on age.
IPM.Document items can be enabled for stripping when there is a stripping policy in place on the folder in which they reside. See the Exchange Store Manager Strip IPM.Document configuration setting in Appendix C: Using the Configuration Editor.
Message Processing
Once messages have been processed by a data loader, SQL jobs link the messages to virtual mailboxes and assign security to embedded messages. These SQL jobs include:
• Mailbox Maintenance - Link Embedded Messages - Archive Manager: This job discovers messages that are attached to other messages and grants users security to the attached messages if they are not already in the user's mailbox. This job is enabled by default. • Mailbox Maintenance - Populate Virtual Mailboxes - Archive
Manager: This job links messages to virtual mailboxes based on the configured parameters of the virtual mailbox. This job is enabled by default.

Search Exporter
The Archive Manager Search Exporter works in conjunction with Archive Manager to allow for the offline rendering of search results.
The results are stored as HTML, MIME, PST or XML format (together with any attachments). They can be accessed without the need to be online or burned to a CD and distributed to people who are not Archive Manager users. If you export to the HTML format, comments are also exported.
These tools are viewable only if you have specific permissions, and are accessible at the discretion of the administrator.
This tool is very useful during a legal discovery, when items must be submitted to the court in a format that can be accessed and preserved by the court (in other words, that can be used as evidence).
Prerequisites
The following requirements apply to the workstation where the Search Exporter will be installed:
• Microsoft Outlook 2013 (RTM), 32-bit, running on Windows 8, 7, or Vista, all 64-bit or 32-bit, or
• Microsoft Outlook 2010 (RTM), 32-bit, running on Windows 8, 7, or Vista, all 64-bit or 32-bit, or
• Microsoft Outlook 2007 (SP3, SP2, or SP1), or 2003 (SP3), 32-bit only, running on Windows 8, 7, Vista (SP2, SP1, or RTM) or Windows XP (SP3 or SP2) and • Windows Installer 3.1 or later (only for installation).
• Microsoft .NET Framework Version 4.0 and 3.5 SP1.
Installing and Running the Search Exporter
Install the Search Exporter on the PC of the person who will use the tool (normally the system administrator).To install the tool, go to the Download Tools page of the Administration Web Site and click the Search Exporter link. Or, run the EmailExport.msi file located on the Archive Manager Reseller and Customer Portal site. Follow the prompts to install the application on the PC.
Before running the Search Exporter, you need to ensure that the Archive Manager security roles that will use the application have permissions to use it.
Remember that Microsoft .NET Framework 4.0 and 3.5 (SP1) must be installed on any workstation where the Search Exporter will run.
Administrators: Perform the following steps to ensure that the appropriate permissions are set to run the Search Exporter.
1. Go to the Archive Manager Website by clicking Administration at the top right of the Archive Manager application.
2. Select Security Roles to obtain a list of all roles in the system. 3. Click Edit for the role that you want to edit.
4. Ensure that the Export Email security action has been added to the role.
Depending upon how the Archive Manager Search Exporter application will be used in your organization, an additional security action may need to be selected. Typically, the tool is used only by administrators or other users with special permissions who need to export data from the Archive Manager application. If you need to search email across all mailboxes in the enterprise, you need to make sure that the security role has the following security action selected:
• Search All Emails
Additional Configuration Options
The following settings can be configured in the SearchExporter.exe.config file.
• AMFolderName: The name of the folder where exported messages will be placed. The default folder name is ArchiveManager.
• AMFolderComment: Allows you to define a comment to add to the folder where exported messages will be placed.
• MaxMsgPerPst: The maximum number of messages to put into a PST file before creating a new PST file. The default value is 1 million. • MaxMsgPerFolder: The maximum number of messages to put in a folder before creating a new subfolder for the top-level folder. The default value is 10,000. Each new folder will be named by a sequential number.
• WebServicePageSize: The number of message IDs to retrieve from the server in a single batch. The default value is 1000 messages. • MaxFileSize: The maximum size in bytes of an Outlook 97-2002 PST
File. The default value is 2 GB. When the PST reaches the maximum size, a new PST file will be created.
• MaxLargeFileSize: The maximum size in bytes of an Office Outlook PST File. The default value is 20 GB. When the PST reaches the maximum size, a new PST file will be created.
Exporting Data
To export email from the Archive Manager system:
1. Enter the search criteria using one or more of the processes described in Chapter 2 of the User Guide, "Email Search."
2. Click Export to initiate the export to display the File Download dialog box.
3. Click Open to open the export file in the Archive Manager Search Exporter. The Search Exporter Wizard screen appears.
4. Enter the requested information into the fields on this screen: • Export Directory: The destination location for the exported data. You
may use the Browse feature (the "..." button to the right of the field blank) to locate and specify the location.
• Format: The format into which the exported messages will be saved. If you choose the PST or HTML Format, then you must also specify: • File Name: Configurable. The default is Default.xxx.
• Type (for export to PST only): Office Outlook, or Outlook 97-2002. • You may use the Browse feature (the "..." button to the right of the
field blank) to specify these values.
• Connect Using: The authentication method to be used to confirm the authenticity of the person performing the export.
• User Name: The username, as used in Archive Manager. The User Name will likely be the same values you use to sign into Archive Manager, as determined by the organization.
If you select to export attachments, then the email messages containing those attachments are exported along with the attachments. Exporting attachments only is currently not supported. For example, if you have multiple emails containing the same attachment and you select to export attachments, all email messages containing that attachment are exported.
Or, the user can click Save to save their search for a future export.
For messages that contain characters in a codepage that is different from the computer's configured codepage, you must export to Office Outlook (Unicode) PST files. The Office Outlook PST file format is available only with Microsoft Outlook 2003 and 2007.
Both the Archive Manager Website and the Archive Manager Web Service must use the same authentication method for the Search Exporter to work.
• Password: The user's password, as used in Archive Manager. The Password will likely be the same values you use to sign into Archive Manager, as determined by the organization.
5. Click Export to begin the export.
The progress bar will track the progress of the export. When the process is complete, a Finish button appears at the bottom of the Search Exporter Wizard dialog box.
Open Exported Search Results
To open the exported search results, browse to the folder you selected to export your email to. How you open exported messages depends on the format of the exported messages:
• HTML format: These messages are accessed via a main HTML page named Default.html, with each message listed on that page. You can simply click on a link to open an HTML version of that message, and the content of the message, along with all attachments, will be available from within the message.
• MIME format: Email messages that have been exported in MIME format can be opened with any standard email application that can read these messages.
• PST format: Email messages that have been exported to PST format can be opened with Microsoft Outlook. Go to the File menu, and select Open/Outlook Data File. Select the folder where your PST file is located and double-click the PST file you want to open.
• XML format: Email messages that have been exported to XML can be viewed with a Web browser, though much of the content will be Base64 encoded. Some data, such as the attachment name and mailbox, can be viewed. Email messages that have been exported to XML can also be imported into another Archive Manager instance.
Before beginning the export, you must verify that you have sufficient disk space to save exported data.
PST Import Wizard
The PST Import Wizard can be run from one or more workstations to process multiple PST files. It imports the mail from the PST files into a directory used by the Archive Manager File System Dataloader. (For more information please refer to the Data Loaders section of the Administration Guide.) From here, the mail is imported into Archive Manager, with the display name of the PST file
representing the mailbox name in Archive Manager.
Archive Manager includes a free license for Recovery Manager for Exchange (RME). RME is the recommended tool for importing PSTs. RME allows you to find and retrieve message-level data from multiple sources in minutes, from a single console.
You can find exactly what you need with intelligent search based on sender, recipient, date, attachment type, subject, message keyword, attachment keyword, or even advanced pattern searching and other custom queries. You can also compare the contents of an online mailbox with a backup mailbox to identify any differences.
Planning for Deployment
Before deploying the PST Import Wizard, keep in mind that loading PST files will inflate the Archive Manager Database. Make sure that you will have enough disk space for this expected growth, and that the Export directory has sufficient capacity to store the email for loading.
Prerequisites
The tool requires the following software to be installed on the client machine: • Microsoft Outlook 2013 (RTM), 32-bit, running on Windows 8, 7, or Vista, all 64-bit
or 32-bit, or
• Microsoft Outllook 2010 (RTM), 32-bit only, running on Windows 8, 7, or Vista, all 64-bit or 32-bit, or
The PST Import Wizard does not support importing .pst files into Archive Manager mailboxes in a GroupWise environment where the owner’s username is not unique because another user exists in the same domain, with the same username, but in a different context. For example, in the following domain structure, Archive Manager will not be able to determine the correct mailbox:
• Company/Department/Europe/JSmith • Company/Department/US/JSmith • Company/ExternalUsers/US/JSmith
• Microsoft Outlook 2007 (SP3, SP2, or SP1), or 2003 (SP3), 32-bit, running on Windows 8, 7, Vista (SP2, SP1, or RTM) or Windows XP (SP3 or SP2) and • Windows Installer 3.1 or later (only for installation).
• Microsoft .NET Framework Version 4.0 and 3.5 SP1. Note: Reliability Update 2 for the .NET Framework 4 is required and can be found at:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2600217
• Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 SP1 Runtime (VCRedist 2008 SP1)
For Exchange, it is required that you use an existing MAPI profile to resolve addresses (from x.400 names into internet [email protected] type names). Make sure you specify the appropriate server to connect to using the MAPI profile. To install Quest Archive Manager PST Import Wizard
1. Go to the Download Tools page of the Archive Manager Website. 2. Click the link for the PST Import Wizard to download it and install it. Alternatively, the Archive Manager PST Import Wizard can be downloaded from

o File Name: The name of the PST file.
• Log Directory: The directory where the export logs are located. If you don’t enter a log directory, the default log directory is %temp%. • Contact Exchange Server for Address Book: This option tells the
PST Import Wizard to use Exchange to look up users and email addresses. It is checked by default. This option should be unchecked for GroupWise users.
• Click Process to process the list and load the content into Archive Manager as a separate mailbox for each PST file.
12. If you have selected Contact Exchange Server for Address Book, you are prompted to select a profile. If there is only one profile, click OK. If you have more than one profile, select the desired profile and click OK.
At this point, depending upon your configuration, you may be promoted to enter credentials for the selected profile and click OK.
Offline Client
The Archive Manager Offline Client allows stubbed messages to be reconstructed while offline. It does not provide the ability to search the entire email archive.
Some PST files must be assigned a user manually.
Error messages are not displayed if the PST Import Wizard encounters an error that prevents it from processing a password protected PST file. To check if all PST files have been processed by the PST Import Wizard, you can view the export logs in the default temp directory listed above, or the log directory you specified.
Prerequisites
Archive Manager requires updating all Offline Client versions to the current version.
• Microsoft Outlook 2013 (RTM), 64-bit or 32-bit, running on Windows 8, 7, or Vista, all 64-bit or 32-bit, or

Archive Retrieve for BlackBerry
The Archive Retrieve for BlackBerry tool allows Archive Manager users with a BlackBerry device to read their archived email from the BlackBerry, without using a Web interface. When this tool is in place, users do not have to follow a link to the Archive Manager Web Site to retrieve archived mail. Archived messages appear on the BlackBerry device in the same format as messages that have not been archived.
BlackBerry users cannot view embedded items using Archive Retrieve. The workaround to this problem is to send attachments rather than embedded objects.
Prerequisites
• MSXML Parser 4.0.• The machine running Archive Retrieve must be the same machine as the BlackBerry Enterprise Server, which must be a separate server from the Exchange Server.
• The latest version of Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime (VCRedist) must be installed on the BlackBerry Enterprise Server.
• When installing Archive Retrieve, the account that the Blackberry Enterprise Server uses must be an Archive Manager administrator account with rights that allow that account to access all messages. • The Microsoft Exchange Server MAPI Client must be installed on the
BlackBerry Enterprise Server. You can download the client from the Microsoft Download Center at the following location:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=E17E7 F31-079A-43A9-BFF2-0A110307611E&displaylang=en
• The proxy information used for authentication between Archive Retrieve and Archive Manager is stored in the
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Quest Software\Archive
Retrieve\ArchiveRetrieve\EMSMDB32\ProxyBypass registry key. The default value is "*" and allows Archive Retrieve to connect to any Archive Manager Website in your domain. This command tells the technology stack to send Windows authentication
If you need to limit connections to a specific host, you may modify this registry value by listing the server that hosts the Archive Manager Website. Or, remove the value completely to skip using this proxy bypass.
• In order to prevent data loss when a large number of messages with attachments are sent to a BlackBerry user, make sure that the Save message changes box is checked in the Archive Retrieve
Configuration Editor before sending messages/attachments that would be stubbed.
• The Archive Retrieve installer verifies that MAPI services are installed, but does not check the installed MAPI version to verify it is a supported version. Be sure to check the Archive Manager System Requirements and verify that your installed MAPI version is supported before attempting to install the Archive Retrieve tool.
