There might be certain use cases in which, for example, a database was categorized as System database, but it would be more appropriate to treat it as Orphaned User Mail -In database file in your environment. For such cases, iDNA Applications provides the option to recategorize databases based on custom rules. Starting from...

Note

Please note that if a database is matched by more than one rule, the resulting recategorization will depend on the internal priorities of database types, which is defined as follows (descending from highest to lowest priority):

  1. Directory
  2. Mailbox
  3. User Mail
  4. Mailin DB
  5. System DB
  6. Orphaned User Mail
  7. Application

Example: If you have a rule A that recategorizes a system database X as "Orphaned User Mail" file and a rule B that recategorizes the same system database X as "User Mail" file, iDNA Applications will treat database X as "User Mail" file.
