RE: Exchange is configured CEO with domainA.com DomainB.com and DOmainc.com, CAN BES send from Each domain on a BB?
Couldn't you add the Exchange account via BES and then add an POP3 or IMAP that is on the same server. Then you get your cake and eat it to. Send email from either Exchange - DomainA, send email from pop3 - DomainB. Both are actually user accounts on the Exchange box. Just getting to it two different ways. DomainB would be email only of course, all your contacts, calendar etc would be handled via Bes on the DomainA setup. You would have to remove the Alias and create a new account/mailbox to make that work though. Using Outlook in the office he could be mapped to both accounts so he could see email from both accounts.

Deleting a folder from all mailboxes
Does anyone know of a way to delete a folder in all mailboxes using Powershell? We used Sunbelt VIPRE (back to the days of iHateSpam) and we've since moved on to Forefront. If I ask users to delete the folder I expect very few will actually do it. I have a feeling deleting a folder in all mailboxes directly with Powershell isn't possible, I'm guessing I need to invoke EWS through Powershell (which I have no idea how to do). I've seen EWS code online for C# and I admit I'm not strong enough in programming to put it all together.

RE: Deleting a folder from all mailboxes
Are you most interested in deleting the folder itself, or the contents of the folder? If it's the contents, you should be able to use a managed folder mailbox policy. For deleting the folder, you simply have to bind to the folder and then call the delete method. There is code for doing that in the SDK. The most difficult issue is creating an appropriate service account - EWS is an absolute stickler for getting impersonation exactly right. Regards, Michael B.

You're right about the /disasterrecovery situation. On your question re: GUID mismatches, since MBS approved the idea and has also advised in the past, to uninstall and re-install Exchange around a dcpromo event, that a proper restore cares only about the server name and the availability of storage at the same drive letters.

Uninstalling Exchange 2003
The final step in our Exchange 2010 deployment is uninstalling Exchange 2003. I've completed all the other decommissioning steps (deleting routing groups, moving Public Folder replicas to the new server, and moving all mailboxes. When I try to uninstall Exchange 2003, I get the following error when I select Remove: Setup encountered an error while checking prerequisites for the component Microsoft Exchange: 0X80072030 (8240): There is no such object on the server. I found a URL relating to this problem at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/283089 and have gone through the suggestions on how to resolve it. As far as I can tell, there are no mailboxes left on the Exchange 2003 server (I've deleted all storage groups in fact). I found some groups that were email enabled which I've removed the Exchange attributes from. Unfortunately the problem persists, and the log file doesn't give anything useful as far as what condition actually caused the error. Any suggestions on what to look for?
RE: Exchange 2003 on non RAID 2 drive server. Exchange and store are on drive with bad sectors.
Sorry for delays in responding. I'm actually on vacation this week. Only looking at email once a day. Exchange 2003 supports a level of what's called database portability, Exchange 2007 improved on this, and Exchange 2010 uses a completely different mapping mechanism. Regardless, a proper restore cares about the storage group, administrative group, and Exchange organization.

Exchange 2010 DAG and backup options/recommendations.
We are going to be moving to Exchange 2010. Basically we will have 14,000 users and will allow users to go up to 4 gig mailboxes. We will have 4 backends distributed between 2 on-site buildings for redundancy (power/network). We will also be deploying a DAG configuration with 2 copies per database. We are talking a ton of storage and the question keeps arising about backups. I've heard with the DAG deployment, a backup system isn't really required because of the database replication, but my mind keeps going back to the possibility of database corruption. Total data to be backed up could be 192 terabytes, so it's a large amount of data. I was wondering what other large shops are using for that type of data. Comments on backup strategies for 2010?

Re: Exchange 2010 DAG and backup options/recommendations.
I would spend some time and read the ESRP results from each of the storage vendors you entertain. There's some excellent data and very interesting results. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/exchange/bb412164.aspx Pay particular attention to each vendor's hardware configuration and compare that to the amount of load (number of mailboxes) they were able to handle and still provide reasonable disk response times. (I believe under 20ms is the target). Once you've digested all of that, start obtaining price quotes from the various vendors. This is what brought Equalogics to my attention as a serious contender in the storage sector. And by the way, I currently manage two EMC CX700s and an EMC CX4-960. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/exchange/bb412164.aspx - Sean On Wed, Jul 28, 2010 at 1:59 PM, sms adm sms...@gmail.com wrote: You want dependability, performance, *and great support*. Netapp will be priced high, but won't come back with additional costs like EMC and IBM have been well known to do. Their support is EXCELLENT. Find a vendor that will give you great service.

I keep hearing talk about them being one of the best performing iSCSI units out there, even compared to the big dogs like EMC and IBM. - Sean On Wed, Jul 28, 2010 at 12:30 PM, Pfefferkorn, Pete (pfeffepe) pfeff...@ucmail.uc.edu wrote: We were looking at going with Dells Powervault MD3200’s andMD1200’s.

Who is your storage provider? I just attended an EMC presentation at the Netherlands Hotel in downtown Cinci for 2010, DAGs, and storage. Your storage provider SHOULD have a solution.

Basically we will have 14,000 users and will allow users to go up to 4 gig mailboxes. We will have 4 backends distributed between 2 on-site buildings for redundancy (power/network). We will also be deploying a DAG configuration with 2 copies per database. We are talking a ton of storage and the question keeps arising about backups. I’ve heard with the DAG deployment, a backup system isn’t really required because of the database replication, but my mind keeps going back to the possibility of database corruption. Total data to be backed up could be 192 terabytes, so it’s a large amount of data. I was wondering what other large shops are using for that type of data.
