To get started with Case Manager, install software on a MediaAgent, create a data classification plan and a backup plan, and set permissions.
Procedure
-
Install software packages on all MediaAgents that will be used with Case Manager.
-
Install software packages on the Web Server.
Note
Case Manager is not fully supported on Linux Web Server. For complete Case Manager functionality support, particularly for email data processing, a Windows Web Server is required. For more information, see Limitations of Linux CommServe Server.
-
If you do not have an Index Server that you want to use with Case Manager, install the Index Store package on a server.
You can use the Index Server that is used for the Exchange mailbox backup operation.
-
Add the Exchange server domain as a domain controller, and for Directory type, select Active Directory.
-
Verify that the file system data is content indexed.
To add file system data to a case, you must have a file system agent installed on the file server and the backup data must be content indexed. For information about content indexing file system data, see Content Indexing Files.
-
In the guided setup, you create a data classification plan to define content indexing requirements and to specify whether to detect PII. The Index Server that you want to use with Case Manager is selected in the data classification plan.
-
The backup plan defines the storage location for the backup data and the RPO (recovery point objective).
Important
When you create a backup plan, you must select a storage location that is associated with a MediaAgent that you configured for Case Manager so that the MediaAgent has the correct packages installed.
What to Do Next
If you want users outside of Case Manager to have limited access to cases, set the permissions needed to share cases.
