Just wanted to talk a bit more about EV 8.0 SP3 from a SharePoint point of view.
With SP3 (which was released last week) the user experience is now much more seamless and.....well I could go on and write more about the various things we've done with EV Archiving for SharePoint but I'll leave this to Dave Scott our Group Product Manager for this product. He's recorded a short video which you should definately watch if you have any interest in archiving your SharePoint content.
We've just posted a video which presents an overview about Virtual Vault - what it is & what it looks like.
This will hopefully answer many of the questions that you might have about this feature, it's presented by Alex Brown (our Product Manager for EV Exchange)
Alex & I are in Berlin at Teched so if you're in town then pop over to our stand in the exhibition hall and we'll happily show you VV in the flesh.
We are pleased to announce that Enterprise Vault 8.0 SP2 is now available for download via the FileConnect portal.
This is a departure from how we have previously made service pack releases available and has been done partly to provide you with a single place where you can download your software and partly for logistical reasons since we now ship the release as an ISO file which is about 1.4GB and is more easily managed using the FileConnect portal. If you do have trouble accessing the portal then you should in the first instance contact our Customer Care who will be able to assist you.
This release highlights are as follows
EV Entourage client
EV Mobile Search
Domino Retention Folders CLI
New DA reports
EVSVR Repair
FSA DOD
Archive draft & future calendar items
Support for SQL2008
I've attached the release notes to this post so you can read all the detail about SP2
We recently published a guide about how to download the EV installation software and license keys which should hopefully answer all the questions you might have about obtaining license keys & installation media. This also includes how to obtain service packs for current & previous releases.
The purpose of this guide is to discuss the different aspects that you need to consider during sizing and recommend best practices for implementation. With V8 there are some new issues for you to consider when rolling out DA so make sure you download this document and start discovering more about DA V8.0.

This is a departure from how we have previously made service pack releases available and has been done partly to provide you with a single place where you can download your software and partly for logistical reasons since we now ship the release as an ISO file which is about 1.4GB and is more easily managed using the FileConnect portal.

Have you already built or moved Enterprise Vault to a virtual platform ?
If so then you can help us by taking part in our survey on this topic.
We know more and more people are moving their Enterprise Vault servers to virtualised platforms, be that VMware or HyperV and there some great success stories out there. So we felt the time was right to run a survey to capture feedback from people who have already made the move to the world of virtualisation, we're interested to hear how you've configured your VM platform and the type of performance you're getting. We're also interested to hear if the process was a positive one and something you would recomend to others.
We're working on a white paper on this topic to help guide you through the maze of issues which you face when virtualising Enterprise Vault so having some real world feedback about your experience with VM will be most useful.
