Map Raw CCS Classifications Directly to an FSRM Classification Property

This section describes how to:

• Create a local classification property in the File Server Resource Manager (FSRM).
• Create a classification rule. This rule uses the CCS to classify files and saves the 'raw' CCS classifications directly to your new classification property.

The following instructions briefly describe the minimum steps in File Server Resource Manager for Windows Server 2008 R2.

To create a local classification property

These instructions create a local classification property, 'CCS_Classification'.

1. Launch the File Server Resource Manager.
2. Expand the Classification Management branch.
3. Right-click Classification Properties and click Create Property.

   The Create Classification Property Definition dialog appears.

4. In the Settings tab, enter the following information:

   Property name

   Set the property name to CCS_Classification.

   Property type

   Set the type to 'Multi-string'. This setting allows FCI to assign one or more raw CCS classifications to a file. For example, the CCS may determine that a file matches multiple classifications.

   Note: For a discussion of Ordered List and Multiple Choice List property types, refer to the Mapping Guidelines.

5. Click OK to close the Create Classification Property dialog.

To create a classification rule

These instructions create a classification rule named 'Apply_CCS_Classifications_1'. The rule saves file classifications to the custom 'CCS_Classification' classification property.

1. Launch the File Server Resource Manager.
2. Expand the Classification Management branch and click Classification Rules.
3. Right-click Classification Rules and click Create a New Rule.

   The Classification Rules Definition dialog appears.

4. Click the Rule Settings tab and enter the following information:

   Rule name

   Type a name for the rule, such as Apply_CCS_Classifications_1.

   Scope

   Specify the folders and volumes that you want to classify.

5. Click the Classification tab and enter the following information:

   Classification mechanism

   Select 'CA DataMinder Content Classifier' from the list. This mechanism causes FCI to use the CCS to classify files.

   Property name

   Select 'CCS_Classification' from the list. When FCI classifies a file, it writes the classification to this property.

6. Click the Advanced button.

   The Advanced Rule Parameters dialog appears.

7. Click the Evaluation Type tab. Then select the ‘Allow continuous classification for new files’ check box.

   This setting forces FCI to reclassify files each time they get modified. If you clear this check box, FCI never reclassifies files which already have a classification.

8. Click OK to close the Advanced Rule Parameters dialog.
9. Click OK to close the Classification Rules Definition dialog.

FCI now classifies all files in the specified folder. It calls the CCS to obtain classifications for each file. These classifications are saved as values of the classification property for each file. If the CCS returns multiple classifications for an individual file, they are assigned to the file (that is, the file's classification property has multiple values).
