Abstract: An improved method for file handling in a hierarchical storage environment (1) comprising means for content scanning (100), content retrieving (300) and content archiving (400); comprises the steps of: Receiving a new document for storage which triggers a new document notification process (S100) which scans the received new document for a set of keywords and references, creates enhanced metadata for the new document including the scan result, and stores the metadata in a file system. The enhanced metadata is then evaluated by a relationship analyzing process, for example to create relations to other documents, which results in a priority list which defines a likelihood of possible access for the document. The new document is then stored based on a result of the priority list in a storage tier (22, 24, 26, 28) of the hierarchical storage environment (1).
