R: Ost to Pst Utility for recovery
Very Goood and expensive is Office Recovery GuidoElia HELPPC _ Da: Dave [mailto:dave...@gmail.com] Inviato: martedì 12 ottobre 2010 7.20 A: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Oggetto: Ost to Pst Utility for recovery The unthinkable happened to one of our Exchange 2003 databases. The database when offline for an unknown reason. Corruption was detected when the database was put online. The database could not be repaired. The last successful backup / restore attempt failed. End users went into Outlook 2003 cached mode which orphaned the ost file with the data. Now the only alternative seems to be to convert the orphaned ost file to a pst file to recover the data. So is anyone aware of a good ost to pst converter utility pay or free? Google gave me a few results but I would like to know what is used by other Exchange admins? --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe exchangelist --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe exchangelist

Upgrade Standard to Enterprise Exchange 2010
We are in the middle of migrating Exchange 2003 to 2010. We have a dual environment setup working well. We have started migrating the mailboxes from 2003 to 2010. All is well, but We have discovered two of the mailbox servers were built as Exchange 2010 Standard servers which is limited to 5 databases. We are being told we can apply our Enterprise license key and the servers will then be Enterprise. However the only key that we know of comes down with the Enterprise download from Microsoft's License site, and its embedded in the download. Does anyone know the facts about upgrading Standard to an Enterprise license?

RE: Upgrade Standard to Enterprise Exchange 2010
All the released binaries of Exchange are supposed to be identical (trial, standard, enterprise); differing only in the product key you enter to enable Exchange (using the GUI or using Set-ExchangeServer -ProductKey). That's been true for all my clients (retail, open, and select). That's the process described here http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb232170.aspx and here http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb124582.aspx.

RE: Exchange 2010 DB SIS question and user placement
My larger clients tend to group users based on: [a] mailbox quotas, and [b] first initial of last name. [A] makes sense to me (so you specify a quota based only once per mailbox database and not for each and every user). [B] is purely arbitrary and is just a way to split up users between databases. Some also have separate mailbox databases for VIPs - to be restored first in the event of a catastrophe. But that's starting to go away since Exchange 2007 and CCR; even more so with Exchange 2010 and DAGs... I would aim for a common size. Regards, Michael B. Smith Consultant and Exchange MVP http://TheEssentialExchange.com From: Pfefferkorn, Pete (pfeffepe) [mailto:pfeff...@ucmail.uc.edu] Sent: Tuesday, October 12, 2010 9:39 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Exchange 2010 DB SIS question and user placement We are currently running Exchange 2007 and we are formulating our plan to move to Exchange 2010. Currently users are logically located on specific databases based on their department. This was primarily for the Single Instance Storage for 2007 and DB's. Now with 2010 I'm to understand that the SIS is gone. So my question. Is there any reason to continue to group users based on their department designation to specific database or would it make more sense to randomly spread them between various Databases. Is there any technical advantage to placing like users who correspond between each other onto the same database? Message will still have to hit the hub for the mail delivery. If we randomly move users to various Databases, I would think that our DB's would average about the same size for the most part...more so than is the case right now since some departments have a high user base and some have a low user base and our DB's range from 13 gig to 175 gig.

RE: Most manageable and usable corporate smart phone?
Blackberries have the most centrally manageable options… However to take advantage of much of that functionality you need to pay for the Blackberry Enterprise Server (BES). The free BES Express edition has many of the centralized management capabilities disabled, but it’s worth a look depending on your needs….. Depending on your size, BES may or may not be a large expense (obviously, “large expense” is relative to your company’s income statement) ☺ And BES may or may not require its own server (again, depending on various factors)… Plenty of info at the Blackberry site.

RE: Most manageable and usable corporate smart phone?
Thanks Joe, I’m picking up a bit of a theme when it comes to Blackberry in that some of it seems to be $$$ but they do seem to “just work” and are manageable should you decide to do something that should be fairly trivial but you need to update X number of mobiles. I’ll look into the free vs. pay software. As I said I’m not expecting anyone to RTFM on my behalf but sometimes experience of a product highlights things that aren’t obvious simply by RTFM – are there any features you’d say are “must have” that the free software doesn’t do?

RE: Most manageable and usable corporate smart phone?
Do ensure that you are comparing like with like, and also consider that the UK mobile phone market is a lot more advanced than the USA one, so some of the reasoning is different. The Blackberry pricing structure changed considerably earlier this year, which makes anything you read that pre-dates 2010 pretty much out of date. Until that point, to use the full Blackberry feature set you needed BES (or BPS) and the BES option on the devices. That made the Blackberry devices very expensive to run. Here in the UK, you were looking at £35/month plus call charges etc. My Blackberry cost me more to run than my phone used for voice. However, I never once paid for BES. If there were more than 10 devices I told the service provider that I wanted BES free, and if they didn’t hand it over, I would talk to someone else. The profit on BES data is so high, that they hand it over. However now, that has all changed. You can now run a Blackberry against BES Express on the BIS plan. BES Express is free for as many devices as you want. Therefore you can run a Blackberry, with all of the features that the end user wants on the cheaper BIS plans. My Blackberry now costs me less than £15/month to run. Of course if you want the full BES functionality, that means you need a full BES (which you rarely get free unless you have a large number of handsets or are bringing in a lot of business) and you must have the full BES data option on the devices. That makes the cost still pretty high. This PDF from RIM outlines the differences between the options available to you. http://na.blackberry.com/eng/services/business/server/express/ComparisonChart_NA_021610_v3.pdf As for other choices, you will not get full management without paying for additional software. For the iPhone, you would have to look at third party. For Windows Mobile, you would be looking at SCCM or whatever it is called now, or third party. Everyone is still playing catch up with Blackberry for the Enterprise management. Good Technologies (http://www.good.com/) is about the closest you will get to Blackberry and has cross-platform support if you need that. However if you can standardise on the device and don’t allow non-company devices to be used, you will find it easier to support and more cost effective.

Configuration object CN=SMTP
((oldemailservername)-{8D797B77-4399-4CC8-A6AD-FDF51AD812DC}),CN=Connections,CN=(removed),CN=Microsoft
Exchange,CN=Services,CN=Configuration,DC=(removed),DC=com read from
(domaincontrollername).(domainname).com failed validation and will be excluded
from the result set. Set event logging level for Validation category to Expert
to get additional events about each failure.
Of note is that in the second message, it looks like it's talking about our old
email server, which we moved mailboxes from a while ago but have not yet
decommisioned.The section, Configuration object CN=SMTP
((oldemailservername)-{8D797B77-4399-4CC8-A6AD-FDF51AD812DC}) has in it the
name of our old email server, not the new one.
I have increased logging and will try to re-run the backup tonight to see what
happens.
Thanks,
Evan

Hrmmm... okay, I've been trying to use Windows 2008 Server Backup to make an
Exchange 2010 Enterprise backup, but it *always* fails the consistency check.
I can Google and find out what my options are, but I wanted to maybe get some
opinions from the brilliant minds on this list first (and Shook, even) about
what my first step SHOULD be.
(Don't hurt me)
Thanks!

Re: Exchange Defrag / VMWare / Windows Server 2003 / Exchange 2007
It depends! I plan my offline defrags based on how much whitespace the
MBS have and on the free space there's the DB's disk.
Look at the Application logs for the event 1221. Here's a powershell
script I use to make things easier:
$StrServerName = (($Args[0]).ToString()).ToUpper()
$BackInTime =
[System.Management.ManagementDateTimeConverter]::ToDMTFDateTime((Get-Date).AddHours(-24))
$EventFilter = Logfile='Application' AND SourceName='MSExchangeIS
Mailbox Store' AND EventCode='1221' AND TimeWritten='$BackInTime'
gwmi -class Win32_NTLogEvent -namespace root/cimv2 -ComputerName
$StrServerName -Filter $EventFilter | select `
@{n=DateTime;e={{0} -f (([WMI]'').ConvertToDateTime($_.TimeWritten))}},`
@{n=SG_MBS;e={{0} -f ($_.InsertionStrings[1])}},`
@{n=WhiteSpace_MB;e={{0:N0} -f ([int32]$_.InsertionStrings[0])}} | ft -auto

RE: Outlook 2011 for Mac message size limit

RE: SSL Wildcard Certificates?
Godaddy wildcard certs work just fine. The challenge is whether or not the handheld device supports wildcard certs. Windows Mobile 6.0 and above do, for sure. I don't know about older versions of WinMo or any other platform. Simon probably does, if he's hanging around today. Regards, Michael B.

RE: SSL Wildcard Certificates?
I am pretty sure that wildcard support on Windows Mobile came in with one of the version 5 updates, not sure which though. Due to the way that different devices got different versions most people tend to say Windows Mobile 6 or higher because that was the first version to support them in all variants. For other platforms, it is hit and miss. I know some Nokia's do support wildcard certificates, but I know that Blackberry doesn't NOT like the Digicert wildcard - which is connected to the root that they use. Although I personally don't use wildcards in any of my Exchange deployments. I have used wildcards for web sites, but on Exchange, I want to use SSL with TLS and not all non-Microsoft MTAs can use them.
