RE: Making an Outlook folder permanent
Thanks to all that answered. -k- -Original Message- From: Tony Hlabse [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, September 18, 2003 8:29 PM To: Exchange Discussions I thought that default mailbox folders such as deleted item and others are not able to be deleted. If other just recover them as long as retention is set and possible setting Dumpster always on just in case. I have found that user can delete mailbox folders using the OWa interface. The only way to get them back was to use the reset folders switch when starting Outlook.

Even if you could, I think it would probably be a waste of time. It would probably be easier to write a daemon that scans all mailboxes and puts back the folder if people delete it.

RE: Exchange and SAN
My biggest problem is the amount of jerk-off sellers. We asked for i) a san ii) some direct-attatched external storage The amount of vendors who took those comments on board, asked what we wanted them for, and then promptly quoted for a NAS device was quite depressing. Idiots. -Original Message- From: Schwartz, Jim [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Fri 19/09/2003 20:52 To: Exchange Discussions Cc: Subject: RE: Exchange and SAN I'll kindly ask you to get off of my soapbox.

RE: Use of OST's over WAN
Gavin, Have done something like this for a number of people by setting to work offline, but synchronize on a schedule that keeps them fairly up to date. Not real time but you can set the sync time to something that doesn't kill your bandwidth. Jack -Original Message- From: Gavin Hall [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 19 Sep 2003 11:37 To: Exchange Discussions Subject:Use of OST's over WAN I am looking for some light reading/information to confirm the behaviour with using OST's over a WAN link. I have a remote office that connects to the main office over a 128k VPN connection. This pipe is shared between 5 other users, including all their internet traffic, so can get pretty slow at times. They currently retrieve their email from a 3rd party ISP, using POP3, but I want to pull them into the Exchange Org, to gain the benefits of the Exchange server. My issue is, I can't configure them to access the Exchange server directly over the 128k pipe, as Outlook/Exchange response is simply too slow. I don't want to go down the PST route, I am aware of the pitfalls there. That leaves the OST option. If I configure the Outlook client to use OSTs and synch in all folders, does Outlook always refer to the local OST first for information ie filed document/email/calender item etc, instead of going out to the Exchange server, over the slow wan link, even if the Exchange server is available? If so I think this is my answer as the WAN delay only comes into play when they are synchronisng with the server. I can't simply try it and see as I am not at the remote office and the guys there are not up to doing this themselves! I have read http://support.microsoft.com/?id=161889 which didn't shed much light! I have referred to the FAQ but that simply hightlights the dangers with PSTs. Can somebody point me to a document with the necessary info?

RE: Brick Level Backup
I don't know if this makes a difference or not, but the setup I use is this: ARCserve machine installed using MSSQL database I backup everything to a SCSI Array (I keep 5 days backup on the array of all servers) Every night I dump everything to tape (LTO 100/200) So I have never had to restore anything from tape. And I also do a full backup of the backup server to tape. So the worst case is I will have to restore the backup server then restore all my other servers once the backup server is up or restore each server individually. You might laugh at this method, but it works.

[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, September 19, 2003 8:22 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Brick Level Backup Why is everyone against ARCserve? I have been using ARCserve v. 9.01 to do brick level backups and I have never have a problem with it. The largest mailbox that I do a brick level backup on is 729megs and most of the mailboxes are over 100megs. I have never had a failed job and I have done successful restores. I would have to say the ARCserve 9.01 is a solid product it is a 200% improvement over ARCserve 7. The only bad thing I can say is that it is a little on the expensive side, but I use it to backup 6 servers and 3 databases.
