Exchange 2010 Internet facing multiple site Outlook Anywhere

2011-06-19 Thread Liby Philip Mathew
Hi,
I have an AD my mydom.local that contains 2 sites connected over ISA 2006 VPN 
tunnel.
I have installed E2K10 SP1 on W2K8R2 in Site A  Site B.  Site A is in 
production.  Site B is on its way to production.  Both the sites are internet 
facing with different URL's.
I am confused on how to tackle Outlook Anywhere?  I prefer to have the users in 
Site A mailbox server connects to Site A server  users of Site B mailbox 
server connects to Site B server directly.
I don't prefer to proxying from Site A to Site B over the tunnel for users that 
are from Site B server.
How can I achieve this?  How can I achieve OOO, Calendaring etc.?
Is there anything that I should take care of Autodiscover URL?
I read so much info that I am lost.
Any other info is much appreciated.


Regards
Liby Philip Mathew

Route company.com to multiple internal Business Units

2011-06-19 Thread Mike Tavares

I have a situation were the parent company (A.com) is running Exchange 2007 and 
has multiple BU’s units that are COMPLETELY separate A/D Forests (b.com, c.com, 
d.com, etc). Most of these Business units are running email systems other then 
Exchange (Mostly Lotus Notes) and are currently receiving emails via 
u...@a.com.  All is good as I have 1 internal relay connector set up that if it 
doesn’t match on the exchange server it relays the message to a notes server 
and it handles the delivery to all of the other business units.

Now the challenge comes that several of the BU’s are being forced to switch to 
exchange 2010 (new CRM solution requires it) and they want to keep using 
u...@a.com as their primary addresses. (I will still have 10 to 12 bu’s running 
Notes).  

So this brings up at least 2 questions.

1. Since these are completely separate A/D forests how do I get all of the 
users into my A/D so a.com at least knows how to accept mail for these users 
(way too many users and groups to consider doing it manually).

2. is it even possible to route a.com to multiple internal relays without 
causing a massive routing headaches for all involved?

Any thoughts or suggestions on how to make this work would be appreciated.

-Mike

[1] ILM/FIM are the automated solutions that MSFT has.

Quest and NetWrix both sell others.

I would suggest that you need a requirements analysis to determine exactly WHAT 
you need. ☺

[2] If Exchange or something like postfix are the “masters of all domains” then 
yes, it’s pretty easy to do. I can’t speak for Notes/Groupwise.

Re: Route company.com to multiple internal Business Units

2011-06-19 Thread Mike Tavares
Thanks

1. Doesn’t surprise me.  I already have ILM  and Quest implemented for other 
A/D sync related activities  for some other domain related stuff (just not mail 
routing)

2. So I would like to keep it native to Exchange if possible.  My mail routing 
is way to complex as it is so I am looking to make it easier if possible.  I 
just can’t figure out how to do it.  What I would like it to do is this.  All 
inbound mail to a.com is Handled by MAILServerA.  There are local user on 
MailserverA. But if an email comes into us...@a.com and his/her mailbox is on 
Mailserverb, I want the mail to go directly to B, the same for us...@a.com if 
they are on MailserverC, etc, etc, and then of course there are the us...@a.com 
that will remain on different mail platforms, so routing should be able to 
determine that as well and send it via the correct connector to the relay 
server for them.

Routing the Namespace to 1 different relay server is easy enough to accomplish, 
going to multiples has not been any fun.  See I was spoiled by Domino.  I have 
all the users in one addressbook, they all have their primary mail server 
listed, and notes just hands the message off to that mail server (regardless of 
the A/D they are a member of).

We went WNLB for a couple of reasons- $ and it was supported happily  for our

IIRC it was a pain for us to set up and get going properly- whether that was 
WNLB, me, or just all the #$^! that was going on at the time, I dunno. Once it 
was going I guess it LB's well enough as long as all the boxes were up. not 
that it was a regular occurrence by any means but if we lost/had to reboot a 
box it did screw with all the connections on that box. Had to fiddle with 
patching too (drainstopping etc) but so it goes.

Also unless we missed something obvious, the only health checking you have is 
basically a ping test, HLB goes past that.



Stuff I've done resulting in 0 client complaints-

Pulled power on the active Kemp

Rebooted a CAS

Powered down CAS



My other response in this thread I rated at .0002 Paul Cents. This one I'll 
rate at a full .02 PC- Given you're going there anyway, get the network guys to 
make their decision and skip WNLB altogether:)

In addition to what Phil said in his reply, for a good overview of the load

FYI, if you go down the hardware load balancer route, here’s the page that

Hi Everyone,

I'm a bit new to this so my apologies if I've not understood something 
correctly. I'm trying to plan new hardware to deploy Exchange 2010 (100 users, 
average mailbox size 500MB) and am looking at using two servers with CAS, HT 
and Mailbox roles installed on both and using DAG for high availability. I was 
thinking of using Windows NLB for load balancing,but have read that this can't 
be used with DAG (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd979781.aspx). My 
question is, if I set up two additional servers with NLB installed and moved 
the CAS and HT roles to them, would this solution then provide the load 
balancing I'm looking for?

Alternatively, would I be better off with two highly redundant servers and use 
one for Mailbox and one for CAS and HT?

Thanks for any advice!

Laurence
