Microsoft Exchange PST Capture allows you to search for PST files on computers in your organization and then import those files to mailboxes in your organization.
PST Capture works with both on-premises Exchange servers and Exchange Online.
This topic provides an overview of PST Capture. For details about how to install PST Capture, see Install PST Capture.
PST Capture Central ServiceAt the heart of PST Capture is the PST Capture Central Service. The Central Service maintains the list of all PST files found in
your organization and manages the data as its moved to the Exchange servers or Exchange Online.
PST Capture AgentDiscovery of the PST files is performed by PST Capture agents that are installed on computers in your organization. The agents also
send the PST files they find to the host computer when an import operation is started on the PST Capture Console.
PST Capture ConsoleThe PST Capture Console is the interface you use to configure PST searches, specify the target mailboxes for PST files, and track the
status of PST import operations and reports. You can also use the console to import PST files stored on network attached storage (NAS) devices, on which
you cant install PST agents.
For optimal operation, you should install the PST Capture Central Service and the PST Capture Console on a dedicated computer, known as the PST Capture host
computer.
Communication between the PST Capture Central Service and the PST Capture agents is achieved through a polling mechanism. Each minute, all PST Capture
agents poll the Central Service for configuration updates and any pending tasks by default. If necessary, you can change this polling frequency (for details, see
Configure PST Capture Settings). When a PST Capture agent contacts the Central Service, it receives any pending actions, such as a PST search or import operation.
The PST Capture Agent then sends status updates from previous actions to the Central Service.
Network Utilization
When using PST Capture, the greatest impact on network utilization is when the actual PST data is being transmitted over the network. When you import a PST file
to a mailbox, it is first copied from the client computer where the PST Capture agent is installed to the staging area on the host computer where PST Capture
Console is installed.
If you import PSTs to your on-premises mailboxes, the PST data is sent to your Exchange organization through your Client Access servers. Therefore, as a best
practice, we recommend that the network connection between the host computer and your Exchange servers is a low latency, high bandwidth connection.
If you import PSTs to your cloud-based mailboxes, the PST data is sent directly to the cloud from the host computer.
Because the movement of PSTs over the network can consume a lot of bandwidth, you may want to schedule the PST import operations during off hours. This is
especially true if you have a low bandwidth connection between the host computer and the client computers, such as branch office scenarios.
