Events Abandoned by Event Import

Events can be abandoned when the importer is carrying out an import operation and:

• Event Import is on a standalone machine, the infrastructure is suspended, and then the importer is shut down, or
• Import Policy is configured to Direct or Hub mode, the import engine is requested to shut down, but the policy engine and the hub do not complete message processing in a timely fashion.

If Event Import abandons an email event that it was processing, it leaves the source data unchanged in its source directory. For example, if an event is associated with:

• An MSG file, the source MSG file is left intact in the directory it was being imported from.
• A PST file, the source PST file (including its contents) is left intact in the directory it was being imported from.
