Post by Aderium »

Can someone explain to me the difference between HSM Policy settings and HSM age ?
I can see that I have on a mailstore an HSM age of 30d but a HSM policy of 3 days whats gives ?

zimbra@mailstore01:~$ zmprov gs 'zmhostname' | grep -i hsm
zimbraBackupSkipHsmBlobs: FALSE
zimbraHsmAge: 30d
zimbraHsmBatchSize: 10000
zimbraHsmMovePreviousRevisions: FALSE
zimbraHsmPolicy: message,document,task,appointment,contact:before:-3day is:anywhere
zimbraMailboxMoveSkipHsmBlobs: FALSE

HSM Policy vs Age ?

Hi,



There are 3 basic ways to find out more about any specific attribute.

1) You can use the web admin console. If you leave your cursor moveless on top of a configuration you will be able to see the matching attribute and maybe the button "more" to get more info.



2) Look for documentation. Admin guide is a good place to start.



3) Use zmprov desc -a. In your particular case, this is the result:



[zimbra@zimbra1 ~]$ zmprov desc -a zimbrahsmage

zimbraHsmAge

Deprecated since: 6.0.0_BETA2. deprecated in favor for

zimbraHsmPolicy. Orig desc: Minimum age of mail items whose filesystem

data will be moved to secondary storage.. Must be in valid duration

format: {digits}{time-unit}. digits: 0-9, time-unit: [hmsd]|ms. h -

hours, m - minutes, s - seconds, d - days, ms - milliseconds. If time

unit is not specified, the default is s(seconds).

zimbraHsmPolicy

The policy that determines which mail items get moved to secondary

storage during HSM. Each value specifies a comma-separated list of

item types and the search query used to select items to move. See the
