eDiscovery (preview) includes a Process report that lists all process that count towards case process concurrency and daily limits in eDiscovery for a defined time period. eDiscovery administrators and eDiscovery Managers (preview) can access this report on the eDiscovery > Process report tab and can use this report to see the process activities across search activities and eDiscovery (preview) cases. eDiscovery Managers can view the processes usage cards at the top of the report, but the processes list is limited to the cases to which they're assigned.
Important
Processes listed on the report can't be deleted or removed. Long-running processes automatically time out after 7 days.
The process report summarizes the following key information for processes up to the last 30 days:
The following eDiscovery process types currently don't count towards the concurrency/daily limits and aren't shown in the report:
Note
Any processes included in the list view of the report and that have run for more than 24 hours do not contribute towards the concurrency/daily limits for your organization.
The following eDiscovery processes started in classic cases don't contribute to throttling limits and aren't reflected in the report. However, these processes started for cases in the New case format are included in the report:
Long-running processes are associated with specific processes that support cases and reporting in Microsoft Purview eDiscovery (preview). These processes are triggered for user actions when using and managing searches, review sets, and holds.
Process type | Area | Description |
---|---|---|
Add to review | Review set | A user adds search results to a review set or adds items into the review set from another review set. The items are copied to an Azure Storage location and then those items in the Azure Storage location are reindexed. This new index is used when querying and analyzing items in the data set. |
Applying or updating hold | Hold | A user places data sources on hold or updates a hold. |
Export | Search Review set |
A user exports documents from a search or a review set. When the export process is complete, they can download the exported data to a local computer. |
Generate sample | Search | After a user creates and runs a new search estimate (or reruns an existing search estimate), the search tool prepares a sample subset of items (that match the search query) that can be previewed. Previewing search results help you determine the effectiveness of the search. |
Generate statistics | Search | After a user creates and runs or reruns a search estimate, the search tool searches the index for items that match the search query and prepares an estimate that includes the number and total size of all items by the search, and the number of data sources searched. |
Run analytics | Search | A user analyzes data in a review set by running eDiscovery analytics tools such as near duplicate detection, email threading analysis, and themes analysis. |
Tag | Review set | This process is triggered when a user selects Start tagging process in the Tagging panel when reviewing documents in a review set. A user can start this process after tagging documents in a review set and then bulk-selecting them in the view document panel. |
The following table describes the different status states for processes:
Status | Description |
---|---|
In progress | The process is in progress, you can monitor the progress of the process in the Process manager for the area. |
Complete | The process was successfully completed. |
Canceled | The process was canceled by the user. |
Abandoned | The process was automatically stopped. This stoppage may be due to excessive processing time or other reasons. |
