Cisco Cisco Email Security Appliance C160 Mode D'Emploi

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 
migration, consider taking manual action to reduce quarantine sizes. For more information about 
early expiration, see 

. 

If you have chosen automatic migration, or configured custom migration to create centralized 
quarantines during migration, consider noting the current quarantine settings on your Email Security 
appliances in order to use them as guidelines for configuring the centralized quarantines. 

If your Email Security appliances are deployed in a cluster configuration, see 

Be aware of the changes that will occur as soon as you commit the changes in this procedure. See

Choose Security Services > Centralized Services > Policy, Virus, and Outbreak Quarantines. 

Click Enable. 

Enter the interface and port to use for communication with the Security Management appliance. 

Make sure the interface and port are reachable from the Security Management appliance. 

If your Email Security appliances are clustered, the interface you select must be available on all 
machines in the cluster.
