Environment

Problem



Enterprise Vault 9.0 SP1 introduced new architecture where retrieved archived items are now retrieved to the user's mail file so that they can be viewed in the context of the user's mail file. This architecture can potentially fail in a Domino clustered envrionment if the cluster load balancing results in the message being retrieved to a mail file replica on a cluster node other than the one that the retrieval request was intiated from.
