SMTP messages archived lower threshold

Veritas.EnterpriseVault.12.SMTPMessagesArchived.LowerThreshold.Rule (Rule)

Collects SMTP Archiving task performance data and generates an alert if too few messages are archived.

Knowledge Base article:

Causes

Either the Enterprise Vault SMTP Archiving task is not processing email messages, or the Enterprise Vault SMTP service is receiving fewer email messages.

Resolutions

Start the SMTP Archiving task, if it has been stopped.

If the Enterprise Vault SMTP service is receiving only a small number of email messages, then check the distribution of email traffic across the configured Enterprise Vault SMTP servers.

If the configuration is correct you can set a lower threshold value for the rule.
