DataServer - Distributed

Data servers of the type DataServer - Distributed do not support the exact same features as data servers of the type DataServer - Classic.

Data servers of the type DataServer - Distributed support the following features:
  • Full and incremental harvest
  • Creating, deleting infosets, creating infosets from a data map, and applying set, node, and duplicate operations to infosets
  • Uploading and deleting cartridges and auto-classification models
  • Running auto-classification enhancements
  • Metadata and full text search
  • Supporting these actions: copy, move, delete, export, Step-up Snippet, Step-up Full-Text, and Step-up Analytics
  • Covering these data sources: Box, CIFS, CMIS, Connections, Desktop, Documentum, Exchange, FileNet, HDFS, IBM Content Manager, IBM Domino, NFS, OneDrive, Sharepoint
  • Supporting retention volumes of the NFS and CIFS server types
  • Exporting and importing volume data
  • Generating all reports
  • Using the same StoredIQ gateway to manage both DataServer - Classic and DataServer - Distributed

If an infoset contains volumes from both DataServer - Classic and DataServer - Distributed, then the infoset is a mixed infoset. Operations on mixed infosets that are not supported on DataServer - Distributed run only on DataServer - Classic and vice versa.

To deploy the virtual appliance that contains preinstalled Elasticsearch and populate the gateway and data server, see Deploying the virtual appliances.
