Cisco Cisco Email Security Appliance C160 Mode D'Emploi

If you want to enable centralized policy, virus, and outbreak quarantines at the cluster or group level, but 
an Email Security appliance which is connected to the cluster has these settings defined at the machine 
level, you must remove the centralized quarantines settings configured at the machine level before you 
can enable the feature at the cluster or group level. 

When you centralize policy, virus, and outbreak quarantines, existing policy, virus, and outbreak 
quarantines on your Email Security appliance migrate to the Security Management appliance. 

You will configure migration on the Security Management appliance, but migration occurs when you 
commit the change enabling centralized policy, virus, and outbreak quarantines on the Email Security 
appliance. 

As soon as you commit this change, the following occur: 

Local policy, virus, and outbreak quarantines on the Email Security appliance are disabled. All new 
messages entering these quarantines will be quarantined on the Security Management appliance. 

Migration of existing non-spam quarantines to the Security Management appliance begins. 

All local policy, virus, and outbreak quarantines are deleted. If you configured a custom migration, 
any local policy quarantines that you chose not to migrate are also deleted. For effects of deleting 
policy quarantines, see 

A message that was in multiple quarantines before migration will be in the corresponding 
centralized quarantines after migration. 

Migration happens in the background. The amount of time it takes depends on the size of your 
quarantines and on your network. When you enable centralized quarantines on the Email Security 
appliance, you can enter one or more email addresses that will receive notification when migration 
is complete. 

The settings in the centralized quarantine, not those of the originating local quarantine, apply to the 
messages. However, the original expiration time still applies to each message. 

All centralized quarantines that are automatically created during migration have the default quarantine 
settings. 

 Perform this procedure during a maintenance window or off-peak hours. 

You must first configure your Security Management appliance for centralized policy, virus, and 
outbreak quarantines. See the table in the “Centralizing Policy Virus, and Outbreak Quarantines” 
section in the “Centralized Policy, Virus, and Outbreak Quarantines” chapter in the online help or 
user guide for the Security Management appliance. 

If the space allocated to centralized quarantines on the Security Management appliance will be 
smaller than the amount of space that your existing local quarantines collectively occupy, messages 
will be expired early based on the quarantine settings on the Security Management appliance. Before
