Default tenant and namespace properties

When creating the default tenant and namespace, you specify:

  • Optionally, a description of the tenant. For example, you can use a description to specify the purpose of the tenant.

    You can change this description at any time after you create the tenant and namespace.

  • Optionally, contact information for the tenant. For example, you can specify contact information for the primary person responsible for administering the default tenant and namespace.

    You can change this information at any time after you create the tenant and namespace. You can change it either from the System Management Console or from the Tenant Management Console for the default tenant.

  • The cryptographic hash algorithm used to calculate the hash value for each object in the namespace. After creating the tenant and namespace, you cannot change the hash algorithm.
  • The retention mode for the namespace — either enterprise or compliance. Tenant administrators can use the Tenant Management Console to change this setting from enterprise to compliance. However, they cannot do the reverse.
  • Whether the namespace is search-enabled. Tenant administrators can use the Tenant Management Console to change this setting at any time.
  • The service plan for the namespace. Tenant administrators can change use the Tenant Management Console to change this setting at any time.
