An organization has a SharePoint environment that contains the following three farms: Farm1 has a Search service application that is configured to crawl all SharePoint sites in Farm1. Farm2 has a…
The correct answer is D. Farm1 and Farm2. Because Farm1's Search covers only Farm1 content and Farm2's Search covers Farm2 and Farm3, placing an eDiscovery Center in both Farm1 and Farm2 ensures complete coverage across all three farms.
Question
- Farm1 has a Search service application that is configured to crawl all SharePoint sites in Farm1.
- Farm2 has a Search service application that is configured to crawl all SharePoint sites in Farm2 and Farm3.
- Farm3 does not have a Search service application. You need to plan for eDiscovery so that you can discover all SharePoint site content in the environment. Where should you place the eDiscovery Center or Centers?

Why each option
Because Farm1's Search covers only Farm1 content and Farm2's Search covers Farm2 and Farm3, placing an eDiscovery Center in both Farm1 and Farm2 ensures complete coverage across all three farms.
Farm3 has no Search service application, so placing an eDiscovery Center there would provide no indexed content to search and Farm2 alone would miss Farm1 content.
Farm1's Search only crawls Farm1 sites, so a single eDiscovery Center in Farm1 would leave Farm2 and Farm3 content undiscoverable.
Farm2's Search covers Farm2 and Farm3 but not Farm1, so a single eDiscovery Center in Farm2 would leave all Farm1 content undiscoverable.
An eDiscovery Center must be associated with a Search service application that has already indexed the target content. Farm1's Search service application indexes only Farm1 sites, so an eDiscovery Center in Farm1 is needed to discover Farm1 content. Farm2's Search service application indexes both Farm2 and Farm3 sites, so an eDiscovery Center in Farm2 covers the remaining content. Together, Farm1 and Farm2 eDiscovery Centers provide full coverage of all SharePoint content in the environment.
