Recovering store to different server
hi All, I need to recover some mail last backed up in 2006. I have the tape and an RSG created to restore to but the server and storage group for which this backup was made no longer exist. I was hoping it was as easy as setting a few Exchange redirect parameters in BackupExec and running the job but I receive the error below. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated, thanks! Failed to find a database to restore to from the Microsoft Active Directory. Storage Group specified on the backup media is 680416c8-ce41-4fc2-a1ee-46bead5107f8. Database specified on backup media is Mailbox Store (MAIL-BE), error is 0xc7fe1f42. ~ Ninja Email Security with Cloudmark Spam Engine Gets Image Spam ~ ~ http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Ninja~

RE: Recovering store to different server
I think you'll need to get PSS involved, or perhaps the Quest Exchange tools which some members of this list speak so highly of. Even to exmerge a mailbox from an RSG the mailbox must reside in the mailbox store from where that backup was created. Just out of interest, how did you create the RSG?, as you need to specify which Group/Store you're recovering when you set it up.

RE: Recovering store to different server
RSG will only work for existing storage groups in the organization. I don't believe it will work to recover a store from a nonexistent server or storage group.If the exchange backup that was done is part of the same domain that are restoring too then I would setup an additional server in the org using the same name as before and restore to that server. If not then do a full restore of the system state and store to a completely separate server and treat it as a DR restore to new hardware. I admit my knowledge on RSG is limited but I may be wrong. PSS may be your best bet in this case depending on your need.

RE: Recovering store to different server
If I setup a new server with the same name or do a full restore of the original system how would this impact users that have since been moved to other servers. i.e. will users try and connect to the DR restore? (old and new servers have different server names) thanks! The RSG was created using the existing storage group. I was assuming BackupExec/Exchange was just going to magically move the backed up group into the new RSG. A bit of reading has shown how poor an assumption that was.

I have manually removed the message from the users inbox but the user *probably* got that message on their blackberry. Is there any quick way I can recall\delete this email from the BES?

It's a good place to be Don. I'm guessing the whole internet thingy probably isn't going to catch on anyway. ;-) As full disclosure, I only joined FB last week at the request/order of Microsoft.

question on Delivery Restrictions
Our environment is as follows: Windows 2003 sp1 with Exchange 2003 6.5.7638.1 with Ninja as our line of defense. So I am trying to prevent our RIM BIS users from connecting up to our server via OWA, which I see is the source to allow them to retrieve their email. My question is this: if I set under the ESM à Global Settings à Message Delivery (Properties) à Connection Filtering à Global Accept and Deny List Configuration à Deny and put the RIM IP, will that stop that device from connecting? We really do not have a said wireless PDA policy in place, but we are discussing this issue as being a security hole since the device is not maintained for wipe / delete through OMA. My thoughts are to be proactive and try to prevent these users from accessing their email through their personal RIM product till we put the wireless PDA policy in the employee handbook. (I know I can disable OWA through the AD Plugin and remove the access but these users still need OWA.)

accidentally wipe the device???

Well, it's drastic, but you can Kill Handheld from BES which will, according to the warning, tell the handheld to disable itself, and that the information previously stored on the handheld will be deleted.

I know that ME2, it was just a good reason to post that article ;). Very interesting article in my opinion, one that I have bookmarked for future reference. While social networking sites are not blocked here where I work, they are categorized as a time waster even though our organization has several high level execs that have profiles several groups setup. How much of a time waster is it really? I have a very large number of FB friends that are from these Sunbelt lists, probably at least 50%. I think that it extends the cooperativeness of this group and camaraderie that we have, and I think that is a very valuable thing. It has taken someone from being an email address name on a discussion list, to having a face and a personality. Take Don Ely, he's a goofy looking mug (just kidding) to someone with a real life and a couple of good looking kidsmakes him seem human ;) Ok, I've rambled on enough. What do ya'll think?

Very interesting article in my opinion, one that I have bookmarked for future reference. While social networking sites are not blocked here where I work, they are categorized as a time waster even though our organization has several high level execs that have profiles several groups setup. How much of a time waster is it really? I have a very large number of FB friends that are from these Sunbelt lists, probably at least 50%. I think that it extends the cooperativeness of this group and camaraderie that we have, and I think that is a very valuable thing. It has taken someone from being an email address name on a discussion list, to having a face and a personality.

Event 9667 Quota Limit on Named Property
We are running Exchange 2007 SP1. Apparently, we have reached our named property quota (which I do not completely understand) on one of our storage groups. Event ID: 9667 Source: MSExchangeIS Computer: Exchange 2007 mailbox clustered server Failed to create a new named property for database SGx\MDBx because the number of named properties reached the quota limit (9274). User attempting to create the named property: Hub Transport Server Named property GUID: ----xx Named property name/id: pipe-summary All the fixes I read say to either 1. Modify the registry and dismount/remount the database. 2. Create a new Storage Group and move all the mailboxes there. We've only been running Exchange 2007 for about 18 months. Is this a common occurrence (reaching the quota limit)? Is there any way to find out if there's a particular violator that may have caused us to reach this quota??? Would you recommend Fix number 1 or 2? Enough questions? Thanks. Robert ~ Ninja Email Security with Cloudmark Spam Engine Gets Image Spam ~ ~ http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Ninja~

It seems I must have slept since my last E2K3 shutdown, because nothing is working the way I recall it should. I've got a physical Exchange 2003 Ent SP2 on W2K3 R23 Std SP2. We are at the tail end of the E2K3 - E2K7 migration, and I have all the PF's replicated to an E2K7 server. This is not the last E2K3 server, and not the only E2K3 PF replica. I have already tried Moving all Replica's to another server, and waited for 24+hr, but the Global Events PF still shows under Instances. No errors relating to that request in the event log. When I try to delete the PF DB I get the warning that ...cant delete because contains at least one replica If I try to directly Remove Replica then I get the error that a PF must have at least 1 replica.

My question is this: if I set under the ESM à Global Settings à Message Delivery (Properties) à Connection Filtering à Global Accept and Deny List Configuration à Deny and put the RIM IP, will that stop that device from connecting? We really do not have a said wireless PDA policy in place, but we are discussing this issue as being a security hole since the device is not maintained for wipe / delete through OMA. My thoughts are to be proactive and try to prevent these users from accessing their email through their personal RIM product till we put the wireless PDA policy in the employee handbook.

Re: A very odd problem...
OK - I think I've got it fixed. Per MBS's suggestion, I've split the backup into two parts, with the Exchange backup happening second and appending to the tape. I've still not mastered RSM, but have found that running rsm refresh before each instance of ntbackup is dang useful. I wish rsm were better documented, though. I've spent a good few hours over the course of the last week trying to figure this out. Once again, thanks for Mr. Cornetet for the original script, which has made my life easier.

MS Exchange 2007 Message Store maintenance
Hellos. We are new to the 2007 world of MS Exchange. Can someone share some tips / config on preparing maintenance plans for MS Exchange? We have a client that has an 80GB message store. We have perfumed some aggressive archiving but we have not seen the message store shrink. In Exchange 2003, you could run a maint plan or an offline defrag and the white space would be removed.

RE: question on Delivery Restrictions
Ok, I just set the user initiated sync to disable. Let me try that and see what the logs state for this user. All I'm trying to do is protect our environment, because from what I have seen in the CISCO side, is plain text, (at least that's what I see) when the RIM connects. I've been explaining or trying to justify that if we allow the devices to connect, then we need the BES so we can have access to them for wipe / delete. I'm by no means a BES expert and like most of you all, I'm a one man shop. I never knew staff was using their personal RIMs to gain access to the email server. This was by stumble and I just want to ensure we (GS) are safe and sound.

I first joined a social network (MySpace) to keep track of what my kids were doing, then my oldest dumped MySpace and joined FaceBook, I followed along, and started discovering that it was definitely more for the older group of the population. (My almost 80 year old mother-in-law has a FB account) It's interesting to see that CIO's are starting to see the advantages of social networking as opposed to it just being a time waster. It's a case of if you can't beat 'em, then join 'em and leverage it to your advantage.

The IT journeyman in me is split as one half sees these as time wasters from a corporate perspective, while the other half see their evolution for what they are, potential cash cows that tie into a particular consumer need. So since I'm constantly looking for ways to grow and break away from the corporate loophole to pursue my own ideas, I try to tap into the mindset of the individuals that create these solutions to try and shape my own. Having a little over 10 years in this field and pushing 40 I've come to the conslusion that I won't get rich working as a sys admin supporting an organization who's user base depends on the very tools that aid in increasing my administrative overhead. If anything I'm doomed to struggle while hovering around that glass ceiling, pondering, and waiting to be shoved out of some side hole. I seem to recall having discussion with some eldermen 10+ years ago when instant messaging was making it's debut about how much of a time waster it was. So here we are years later discussing an evloved form of messaging. I figure in another 5 - 10 years streaming video will evolve and I'll be somewhere having a discussion on how much of a time waster it is from the corporate perspective. ya' gotta love how evolution marches to the beat of its own drums...

Our users, those that have access to OWA, use RSA SecurID tokens.

Re: question on Delivery Restrictions
We had to go through the process of implementing official policy regarding mobile devices and OWA. Unless the user has explicit approval from their manager/director to access one or the other or both, that is disabled on their AD account. By disabling that on the account, even if a user finds out how to access it, they can't because it isn't enabled for them. It took us several weeks of going back and forth with HR on the policy before we got it settled. It ended up being an expansion of our existing remote access policy. I would highly recommend getting this as a policy through your HR. That way, there is no question about it, and users that try to go around it, will be dealt with appropriately and they know that.
