You will see the online archive automatically in Outlook once it's enabled (see the screenshot in my original reply for what it looks like). The above link has more details on enabling it for users. Outlook syncs any changes made to the local cache back to the cloud mailbox....you can't make a change to local cache and not to the cloud mailbox, that's not how a cache works. You need policies in place to automatically move items to the online archive, but users can also drag and drop items from the primary mailbox to the online archive

Hi Dan,
I have managed to get the licenses and I am using my own account to experiment on. After playing around I got my OnLine Archive - mark@..... to show up. On my workstation client. So I only guessing but I open lets say SENT folder. Scroll to the bottom and click on "click here to view more on Microsoft Exchange" This allows me to get to the message on the server correct? Correct me if I am wrong. Here is what I tried to do. We started the subscription summer 2017. I can drag one at a time to move them. If I tagged ( Click first <shift> click last ) to move all sent in 2017. I get and hour glass and not responding, when I tried to move them to the Online archive folder in a bunch. Is there a limit of how many files you can move in a group? Small groups of email move slowly but do, large ones appear to stall and kick out.
Thanks for your help. Plowing forward in to the night.
