Step 2. Licensing

PST Enterprise installs with an evaluation licence for 30 days for 5 mailboxes. If you have purchased PST Enterprise and have received your licence file, you can apply your full licence following the process on Licensing.

Step 3. Client Configuration

Before running the PST Enterprise Client to start discovering and processing PST files, review the Client Configuration as this dictates the behavior of the Client in particular where it searches for PST files.

Step 4. Global Configuration

Review the Global Configuration settings, in particular setting the desired Ownership determination and applying the receive connector permissions for the PST Enterprise service account so it can send the System Health report.

Step 5. PST Enterprise Client Deployment

The PST Enterprise Client must be run in order for PST files to be processed. Follow How to Deploy the PST Enterprise Client to start discovering PST files.

Step 6. Install Additional PST Enterprise Copy Agent Servers (Optional)

To install any additional Copy Agent servers for running copy or move PST policies, see How to Install Additional PST Enterprise Copy Agent Servers.

Step 7. Policy Definitions

Create suitable policies to assign to the PST files on the Policy Definitions.

Step 8. Review Discovered PST Files

Once the PST Enterprise Client is deployed, discovered PST files are reported in the Assigned PSTs and Unassigned PSTs tabs. You can then assign a policy to these PST files to process the data.
