    1.Archiving is enabled for a user mailbox or a shared mailbox. An archive mailbox with 100 GB of storage space is created, and the warning quota for the archive mailbox is set to 90 GB.

     

    2.An administrator enables auto-expanding archiving for the mailbox. If the mailbox has a hold or retention policy applied to it, the storage quota for the archive mailbox is increased to 110 GB and the archive warning quota is increased to 100 GB.

     

    3.Then, when the archive mailbox (including the Recoverable Items folder) reaches its storage quota, the archive mailbox is converted to an auto-expanding archive. Extra storage space is added until it reaches a maximum size of 1.5 TB. It can take up to 30 days for the additional storage space to be provisioned.

     

    4.Microsoft Purview automatically adds more storage space when necessary.

  • Archive mailboxes in Microsoft Purview provide user mailboxes and shared mailboxes with additional mailbox storage space. After an archive mailbox is enabled, up to 100 GB of additional storage becomes available.

    This archiving feature in Microsoft Purview (called auto-expanding archiving) provides up to 1.5 TB of additional storage in archive mailboxes. When the storage quota in the archive mailbox is reached, Microsoft Purview automatically (and incrementally) increases the size of the archive until the archive mailbox reaches 1.5 TB.
