I’m very excited to announce the Winter 2019 release for Enterprise Vault.cloud (EV.cloud). This release delivers enhanced usability to you, our archive administrators. Once deployed in your data center (see currently-scheduled release dates below), you will have access to more tools for monitoring product usage, including expanded reporting, analytics and alerting options.

The Winter release will be rolled out across Veritas’ global data centers over the next several weeks during regularly-planned maintenance windows, with customers being notified in advance that the service will not be available during this time.

We completed the rollout to a select number of North American customers on March 6 and to our customers in our Eastern Australia data center on March 8. The release schedule planned for our remaining data centers is as follows (dates subject to change:(

  • March 15, 2019: Western European data center
  • March 29, 2019: Western United States data center

What’s new:

Enhanced visibility into product usage and sync activity

Designated administrators will notice a new tabbed layout with an updated welcome and Archive Overview page when they log into the Administration console. The previous archive usage snapshot is still available by scrolling down on the Archive Usage page.In the screenshot above, new meters indicate actual usage vs. the currently-licensed amount based on which EV.cloud services your organization has provisioned.In the screenshot above, new meters indicate actual usage vs. the currently-licensed amount based on which EV.cloud services your organization has provisioned.

Click-to-acknowledge in-product usage alerts

Enterprise Vault.cloud offers you the flexibility of adding users as needed, even if you have to go above your currently licensed amount. You can always enable usage alert notifications, which will automatically send an email to you when you reach your specified user threshold. Now, if you are near or over your currently licensed amount, a screen will pop up when you login to the Administration console asking you to acknowledge that you are aware your usage is above your currently licensed amount. Designated administrators will also receive an email notification asking them to login to the Administration console and acknowledge their usage.In the screenshot above, you can see the new dialog box that will appear when your organization is near or over your currently licensed amount.In the screenshot above, you can see the new dialog box that will appear when your organization is near or over your currently licensed amount.
