Just whatever applies to your organisation. I like to keep a standard naming convention (e.g Building Name, Room Name/Number) but you may wish to adopt something different. What is your aim?

RE: Exchange 2007 resource mailbox
Thanks Richard. I want my users to book the 3 meeting rooms that we have. My aim is, should I allow the user themselves to do the booking or should it be forwarded to a delegate (secretary) to do the booking? There are days where all the meeting rooms are heavily utilized. I have named the rooms as meeting as Room1, Room2 etc. Regards Liby Philip Mathew | ICT Consultant ICT Professional Services Path Solutions Tel: +965 24824600 Ext. 703 Fax: +965 24824500 www.path-solutions.comhttp://www.path-solutions.com/ From: Sobey, Richard A [mailto:r.so...@imperial.ac.uk] Sent: Monday, November 01, 2010 1:45 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Exchange 2007 resource mailbox Just whatever applies to your organisation.

Having a delegate do it sort of nullifies the point of the functionality IMHO.

Which files to backup on Exchange 2k7
Good morning, We've recently upgraded our server to SBS2k8 which run Exchange 2k7. Because of an error when ordering our backup hardware we're using a non-standard way to backup our server. I'm having to configure it manually. I've got our data files backing up with no problem but can't seem to find the what I need to backup for Exchange 2007. I've googled etc. with no luck. Because we're running SBS2008 instead of a standalone Exchange box most of what I've found doesn't seem to apply. What am I missing?

Re: PF replication
Or maybe there really is only 2gb of PF data? Maybe your source PF store, which indicates 12gb, has lots of white space? Does it look like there are replicas on the target server of all folders? Rob On Sat, Oct 30, 2010 at 11:46 AM, Level Five - List li...@levelfive.uswrote: Okay, what am I missing, I have 2 ex2k7sp2 servers that im trying to replicate PF data. The data is about 12GB which isn’t a lot but its dozens of folders and hundreds of permissions. I started replication a month ago, replication got to about 2gb on the 2ndserver and it hasn’t moved since. The other day I spun up a new vm as a test , installed exchange and ran the replication scripts. When I goto the primary server I see the new server in all the replication lists of all the folders. I waited about a day, I see the primarypf messages in the queues going to the new 3rd server. The server got to about 2.1gb and hasn’t moved now in 24 hours and I don’t see anything in the queues. As a test I made sure that all the limits were off, and i had previously lifted the 300k limit to 3k as a test for replication and that didn’t change anything either. So im either missing something very basic, or im going to just extract, delete, re-create all the pf’s on the new server and manually do all permissions (can pfwebdav export perms?) or if there is a tool to extract those would be appreciated .. the fact that 2 other servers are stopping right @ 2gb makes me think there is something I didn’t set correctly as far as size or similar.

Aligning disk track recommendations

third party brick level backup
Are today's versions of Backup Exec and the like still a threat to the database when doing brick level backups and restores?

Re: third party brick level backup
Exchange 2003 currently. Moving to 2007 or 2010. (already licensed for 2007 but may go with 2010 if funding lasts.) so I guess pretty much any within the last 10 years. -Bill On Mon, Nov 1, 2010 at 10:25 AM, Webster carlwebs...@gmail.com wrote: What version of Exchange will you be backing up? Webster *From:* Bill Songstad [mailto:bsongs...@gmail.com] *Subject:* third party brick level backup Are today's versions of Backup Exec and the like still a threat to the database when doing brick level backups and restores? I've only used NTbackup since Exchange 5.0, but we are going through a merger and my new counterpart wants to use the third party software so we can restore individual mailbox items without loading the entire Recovery Storage Group. I remember seeing in the past that these sort of backups and restores can cause problems in the database. Is this FUD, old news, or something that still should be avoided?

RE: PF replication
Its definitely not caught up, when I do a get-publicfolderstatistics command on each server the totals are very different, the new server is missing lots of data, a few folders are complete and many are completely empty. This happened to me the first time, so maybe there is something corrupted on the sending server that gets stuck. The first time I did this had similar results, the db got to about 2gb and never replicated anything else. Im looking to turn up some logging again to see if I can find errors.

Maybe your source PF store, which indicates 12gb, has lots of white space? Does it look like there are replicas on the target server of all folders?

The data is about 12GB which isn't a lot but its dozens of folders and hundreds of permissions. I started replication a month ago, replication got to about 2gb on the 2nd server and it hasn't moved since. The other day I spun up a new vm as a test , installed exchange and ran the replication scripts. When I goto the primary server I see the new server in all the replication lists of all the folders. I waited about a day, I see the primarypf messages in the queues going to the new 3rd server. The server got to about 2.1gb and hasn't moved now in 24 hours and I don't see anything in the queues. As a test I made sure that all the limits were off, and i had previously lifted the 300k limit to 3k as a test for replication and that didn't change anything either. So im either missing something very basic, or im going to just extract, delete, re-create all the pf's on the new server and manually do all permissions (can pfwebdav export perms?) or if there is a tool to extract those would be appreciated .. the fact that 2 other servers are stopping right @ 2gb makes me think there is something I didn't set correctly as far as size or similar.
