Installation/Upgrade
Microsoft

.NET
Microsoft .NET version 4.5.2 is now a pre-requisite. If a previous version of .NET is installed, it will be

Case List
The Action column in the Case List has been moved to the left of the Project Name column.

Dashboard
Summation 6.2 introduces a Dashboard that provides a single, comprehensive window into the status of many of
the software's core functionalities through a series of "widgets", each focused on specific aspects of the product:
A

Collections widget which displays a graphical summary of the status of collection jobs performed over
the previous week

A

Processing Jobs widget which displays a graphical summary of the status of processing jobs performed
over the previous week

An

Active Users widget which displays a list of the users who are currently logged into the system.

A

System Overview widget which displays information on the number of Cases in the system, as well as
the total number and total size of the records contained within those Cases

A

Review Set Status widget which displays a graphical representation of the Review Sets within the
system.

A

Litigation Hold widget which displays a graphical representation of the Custodian acknowledgement
status of the Litigation Holds that exist within the system.

 A

Litigation Holds - Top 10 widget which displays a list of the top ten Litigation Holds contained within the
system based on the number of Custodians

The chart type for the graphical widgets can be customized to display data in a pie chart, horizontal bar chart, or
vertical bar chart format.
Selecting any of the widgets opens a Details window that provides users with the ability to sort, filter, and export
the widget's information, as well as links to the data in their standard interface.
Users with the Application Administrator role will have full access to the new Dashboard. A new View Dashboard
global permission has also been made available to allow non-System Administrators access to the new
Dashboard.

Projects
Processing Options
Entitiy Extraction
This processing option is now disabled by default.

Standard Viewer Options
The Enable Standard Viewer processing option has been renamed to Default Standard Viewer and its behavior
has been updated in the following ways:
When

the Default Standard Viewer option is disabled, the Alternate File Viewer will be the default
viewer in the Review interface.

When

the Default Standard Viewer option is enabled, the Standard Viewer will be the default viewer in
the Review interface.

A

new Default Standard Viewer setting has been made available in the Review interface's Layout
drop-down. This setting is initially set to match the processing option that has been selected for that
project, but can be changed by individual users at any time.
When the Default Standard Viewer option is enabled, native files will be displayed in the Standard
Viewer. SWF files are automatically generated (if they do not already exist) on-the-fly when records
are first viewed with the Standard Viewer.
When the Default Standard Viewer option is disabled, native files will be displayed in the Alternate File
Viewer and SWF files are not generated when records are viewed.

A

new Pre-generate Standard Format setting has also been provided to instruct the system to pregenerate SWF files for display in the Standard viewer, eliminating the need to generate SWF files on-thefly.
The

following file categories are available for SWF pre-generation:

Documents
Email
Presentations
Spreadsheet
Graphics
Mobile

Phone

When

the Pre-generate Standard Format option is selected, the system will initiate an imaging job for
the chosen file categories after the evidence has been processed. A message containing the imaging
job's ID will be displayed in the evidence's Processing Status Messages and the progress of the
imaging job can be monitored on the Project's Work List.

The

default timeout value for SWF generation is 5 minutes, but is configurable. Please contact
AccessData Support for assistance changing the value of this timeout.

Note: When upgrading from a previous version, if a project had the Enable Standard Viewer option

enabled it will operate as if the Default Standard Viewer option is enabled. It will also enable the
Pre-generate Standard Format option for Documents, Email, Presentations, Graphics, and Mobile
Devices file categories.

Processing
Cancelling

and Rolling Back Evidence Processing
Prior to version 6.2, the ability to cancel evidence ingestions was limited to the FTK line of products. A
Cancel Processing option has been added to the Project Evidence tab, which provides users with
sufficient permissions the ability to cancel an active evidence ingestion directly from the web interface.
When an evidence ingestion is cancelled, the system will attempt to "rollback" any changes made to the
Project by the cancelled evidence ingestion, including the removal of records from the database and any
related indexing.
Important: The rollback process will run as a separate job in the background. Other jobs will continue to
process based on priority. If the canceled evidence ingestion is large, the rollback process
may take several hours to complete. If the rollback does not succeed within 24 hours, it will be
cancelled automatically by the system.

Entity

Extraction - People
The list of source names used to identify proper names within a data set when processing with the Entity
Extraction option for People selected has been increased significantly.

The

Processing Manager (ProcessingHost.exe and Distributed Processing Manager) will now allow for
updating the database more efficiently and increasing the threading capabilities.

KFF
The

NSRL data has been updated to version 2.54.

Litigation Hold
The

Custodian Acknowledgement page has been updated to display a message clarifying that "No
Attachments" exist when no supporting documents have been attached to the Litigation Hold.

Review
Conversation Panel
The

grouping and display of email conversations has been changed in the following ways

Processing

time has been improved.

Conversations

are now grouped using the ConversationTopic (email heading) and then split into
threads using additional metadata (such as, To, From, CC, BCC, Subject, SentDate, ReceivedDate,
ConversationIndex, InReplyTo, MessageId, etc.).

The

behavior of the Conversation Panel is similar as before, but no longer displays Emails In Cluster
data. The Conversation view (from the Views options) has been removed from the Review interface.

Standard Viewer Option


Individual end-users are now provided the ability to select either the Standard Viewer or the Alternate
Viewer as their default Native file viewer for a project using the Default Standard Viewer option in the
Layout drop-down within the Review interface.
Enabling the Default Standard Viewer option will result in native records being displayed in the Standard
Viewer. Disabling the Default Standard Viewer option will result in native records being displayed in the
Alternate File Viewer.

Search
The

Quick Search bar within the Review interface now supports that ability to search for Bates numbers.
This search functionality supports the use of wildcards.

Bulk Print
The

behavior of the system's Bulk Print functionality has been modified to better leverage any existing
TIF and PDF images associated to a record. In situations where no images are associated to a record,
the system will now generate PDF images for printing instead of TIF images, which is a faster back-end
process and is expected to decrease the amount of time necessary to generate a printable image format.

Case Organizer
There

is now an Expand All / Collapse All option for Case Organizer Notes.

Exports and Production Sets
Exporting PST/NSF
In

previous versions, exports and productions of NSF data using the "Output to PST/NSF" option would
export the records in PST format only.
Exports and productions of NSF data using the "Output to PST/NSF" option will now export the records in
an NSF format. Data from a PST file will still be exported in a PST format.

Browser Briefcase
The

columns in the Browser Briefcase can now be sorted.

Default Export Templates
Four

new default field export templates have been made available for use with Production and Export

jobs:
Summation

Export Template

Summation

Email Export Template

Relativity

Export Template

Relativity Email Export Template
These templates contain the fields most commonly associated with DII (Summation) and OPT/LPT
(Relativity) loadfile formats and will allow users to quickly and accurately configure loadfiles associated
with Production and Export jobs. These templates are not editable, but can be modified and saved as a
custom template if desired.

Export Logging and Reporting
Logging
If

and reporting have been improved for failures or errors during export:

there was an issue during the export, the final status now shows Completed with Errors

Specific

information is recorded in the reports and logs.

6.2 Important Information
General
Summation

does not support Internet Explorer 8. Make sure that you are running Internet Explorer 9 or

higher.

Requirements
For

general software and hardware requirements, see
http://accessdata.com/solutions/e-discovery/summation/technical

Consolidated Services and Installation Settings
Important!

Read this before installing or upgrading. During a new installation or upgrade, you must
properly set the location of some services.
Starting with version 6.0, the following services are consolidated into the eDiscovery Services.
Infrastructure
Work

Services

Distribution Services

License Services
During an installation or upgrade, you are still prompted to enter the locations of these legacy services.
You must configure the location for these three services so that they match the location of your 6.x
eDiscovery Services computer.

New

6.x installation:
When prompted for the location of the three legacy services, you must use the same location as the
eDiscovery Services computer.

Upgrade

from 5.x to 6.x
When you installed 5.x versions of Summation and eDiscovery, you could specify a unique location for
each of the services. During a 5.x to 6.x upgrade, those previous services locations are carried
through.
If you specified a different location for any of these three legacy services, during the upgrade you
must change them so that they match the location of your 6.x eDiscovery Services computer.

The

new LawDrop Server setting lets you share files stored in your LawDrop with users outside of the
system. This setting needs to be edited with either the domain or the IP address of the server running
MAP not just "localhost”.

Upgrade
When

the application is upgraded, the Enabled Standard Viewer Processing Option is turned off because
it is a slower performing processing option. If you want this functionality, you need to enable it manually in
System Configuration > Project Defaults > Processing Options.

If

upgrading to 5.6, we recommend upgrading SiteServer from the previous PostgreSQL 9.1.11 to 9.3.5
(which is included in the ISO). The 9.1.11 version will function, but in the console, child site servers will
appear in a yellow error state. (15980)

When

upgrading to version 5.6, and when upgrading Site Server to use the latest version of PostgreSQL,
you must first wait for all of your Site Server jobs to clear, then you can un-install and re-install
PostgreSQL.

Updated Imager and AD1 Files
Any AD1 created by FTK/Summation/eDiscovery 6.0 or later can only be opened with Imager 3.4.0 or later.
Imager 3.4 can be freely download from the AD website: http://accessdata.com/product-download
Using an older version of Imager will result in an "Image detection failed" error.
This happens because the AD1 format was enhanced to support forward compatibility between AccessData
applications. Newer AD1 files have a version 4 in the header instead of 3. A hex editor can be used to quickly
determine if your AD1 is v3 or v4 (see screen shot below).
