RE: OS Upgrade - 2008 to 2008R2

[Andy Shook]

MBS,

 RE: DAG

In a multi server\role deployment, the HT & CAS servers can be Win\Exchange 
standard and the MBX servers have to be Win\Exhcange ENT b\c of DAG.  Correct?

If you immediately need to fire up a DAG, then you have to have matching OS 
versions.

Thanks. Thats what I thought.

What are the reasons I'd put the new servers in as 2008 vs putting the new 
servers in as R2 and upgrading the older servers? Other than time.

It is not supported to upgrade the OS, to a new major release, on any server 
where Exchange is installed.



Service packs are ok (after they have been qualified, of course).

is this supported when Exchange 2010 is installed? What are the potential 
issues? I have several new sites coming into the organization and will be using 
DAG on the databases but the sites they will be replicating to only have 2008.

Step 4 doesn't work that way.

I _think_ you actually meant autodiscover. But without SRV record updates, 
autodiscover will only work for the primary site.

You either have to use GLBS, offered by the likes of Coyote Point, Cisco, Kemp 
Technologies, etc.; DNS updates; or BGP IP network updates. IF you want it to 
be automagic.

Every Exchange site must have a dedicated namespace.

So what would I need to do to make this solution expandable to two sites with a 
10 minute failover process?

My ideas are;
1. Have an upstream spam\av filter where the MX record points to 2. Split the 
databases between the two sites and DAG to each other 3. HT\CAS would be aware 
of both sites, per configuration 4. Have DNS configured for the CAS role where 
Outlook Anywhere would be able to "failover" to either site as needed

Am I missing anything?

Yes.

You need DAG for MB role, HT automatically does failover HA/FT, and a RPC 
Client Access Array on the CAS. The only challenge is that for true HA/FT, 
you'd need to load balance the CAS.  If you don't load-balance CAS then you'll 
need to have a DNS entry for the FQDN of the RPC CAA with a low TTL and in the 
case of an extended failure, switch the IP address.

(I teach a full day class on this, and that's not long enough to cover all of 
the various details, but those are the basics of the class in 3 sentences.)

 One of the features that excited me about Exchange 2010 was the ability to

have database replication and failover between the two servers if all the roles 
are on the two individual servers?  I am not talking about high availability.  
I understood that there could be replication between two servers and if one of 
the two failed the other would take over.  The difference is that with high

20-30 minutes.

FW: garbled Japanese character sets

Subject: garbled Japanese character sets

Exchange 2003 with Outlook 2003 & 2010

Got an issue with an international company whereby (I love that word) Japanese 
characters are getting mangled between Outlook 2003 and 2010 clients.  I have 
read about this being an issue with Exchange 2007 but it was corrected within 
SP1.  Is this a known issue with Exchange 2003 and the best fix is to 
upgrade\migrate to Exchange 2010?  This is my first experience with the 
Japanese character set, so any help is appreciated.

May the Swartz be with you

Single Exchange 2007 sp2 server

Hi All,

Over the past 2 days one of our exchange databases has grown 100% (roughy 
40gb).  Getting mailbox statistics doesn't indicate any specific user as being 
the receiving end of this increase.  Luckily, I can increase the disk space at 
will, but this is rather alarming as the database hasn't grown that much for 
over a year.  Anybody know of any tool or powershell command that would 
identify where this increase has ended up?

Exchange 2010 licenisng questions

[Andy Shook]

Good morning ya'll, hope everyone is well.

I'm designing multi-site Exchange 2010 setup and if "DR" site is in receive 
mode only via DAG, meaning no active MBX connections from users, do you have to 
license Exchange or can it just receive replicated data and the licensing 
swings when DR is tested or declared?  Licensing would be from our SPLA for the 
client...

RE: Exchange 2010 on vSphere - Redundancy?

[Andy Shook]

+1
Just went down this road with a large design I had to do with a customer.  What 
I did is have two MBX servers, that will be placed on separate vSphere4 servers 
and all HA\DRS\Vmotion features turned OFF for those two virtual instances.  
Created a DAG between the two and allocated appropriate disk space per VM and 
we are rocking and rolling.  I would *love* to test VMotion win this setup, as 
I don't think the virtual instance cares where it lives... just to *see*.

We're currently using Exchange 2003 but should be going to 2010 in the next few 
months.

In terms of performance, a single server should do the job, so that leaves 
redundancy.

I'm interested in peoples experiences of things like vSphere Fault Tolerance

Ultimately we're not a 24/7/365 operation but within sensible limits I want to 
make our email system as robust as I can.

Easy answer: It's impossible to rename an Exchange organization.

Perhaps a more relevant question might be: why do they care? You never see the 
organization name unless you go hunting for it...

RE: Exchange is history?: Moved two clients to GoogleApps this week.

[Andy Shook]

Well said Dark-rock. :)

To give you a different perspective, Peak 10 has been doing "cloud" for a 
little over four years and  the adoption rate is incredible.  $SMBs to 
$Fortune200s (I deal with them all) are sick of capital outlay for hardware, 
they're tired of the of the IT cycle and just want their stuff to work and be 
available with an SLA.  I don't want to turn this into a pitch, out of respect 
for my favorite list but I felt lead to mention it from the MSP side of the 
house.

True to a point.
Let's face it, the cloud is here and one way or another you are going to end up 
there. Either you get on board or your CFO will for you.
I will say if we were not a VAR, didn't have access to outstanding hardware, 
and didn't eat our own dogfood, I would put Exchange in the cloud in a 
heartbeat.
Besides how many of us are in there already? Who uses Salesforce or Netsuite or 
some other such service? Online marketing, etc.
How many of us at home are backing up to the cloud?

I've never really seen it as "Google vs. Exchange" tbh, I think both do

different things and suit different needs.



Office with half a dozen people and no real IT need or infrastructure

and I think I'd find it hard to see past Google Apps or Hosted Exchange,

even scaled up to a couple dozen staff and a single server I'm not sure

Exchange would be first choice simply because if nothing else you do

need to back it up and someone needs to ensure that happens.



On the other hand, if you have a few dozen or a few hundred users and

have even a modest investment in things like a SAN or vmware and decent

connectivity and someone with IT knowledge then I'm not sure it's so

easy a decision.

Would definitely be interested in some details as far as client size,

feature usage (shared calendars, contacts, etc...), and the technical

level of the users.



It seems from past things I've read, the service is better suited to

companies with a greater proportion of more savvy users.

Major +1 on Equallogic...contact me offlist is you have any specific questions. 
 Also, watch out for the Dell arrays they both have a max number of connection 
limits (12, me thinks).  So..if you have six servers with each with two 
connections for redundancy to the SAN, you're done.  No more SAN for you.

Hope this helps...

In regards to the OP's question: if your Exchange data is primarily email, then 
you'll likely see a slight decrease, even with the loss of SIS. This is because 
textual data (text, HTML) is now compressed by the Exchange store before it's 
put into the EDB. If your Exchange data is primarily binary attachments (zip 
files, images, PPT, Word, PDF, etc.) then you'll see an increase in size.

According to MSIT, when they moved all of MSFT over to Exchange 2010, the 
difference in size was "negligible". [A one-for-one comparison really isn't 
possible, because the format of the EDB changed significantly between 2007 and

Here's what MBS wrote back on February 1st when I asked the same question 
(among others) in a thread titled "2003 to 2010 planning."

"add up the sizes of all the individual mailboxes ('cuz when reporting 
individual mailbox size, SIS isn't taken into account). Compare that to the 
actual physical size of EDB + STM. THAT is your real SIS ratio. It likely isn't 
as high as you think (regardless of what perfmon says)."

My question was about Exchange 2003, but I would imagine the same notion of the 
sum of the individual mailboxes applies to 2007.

My understanding is that any decompression (or re-hydration, or whatever it's 
properly called) of a user's mailbox occurs immediately when it is moved to a 
new database since.

Hope this helps,

With SIS having been removed from Exchange 2010 what sort of increase in disk

Will this increase in consumption occur immediately or overtime as user's

Exchange 2010\OA config pipedream

So let’s say someone wants to place their Exchange infrastructure in the 
leading independent data center provider in the USA  
and they want to drop an additional MPLS\WAN segment into the data center so 
all internal users will use their private network to access their mailboxes 
instead of the Internet. Outlook 2007\2010 will be setup to use Outlook 
Anywhere and will be a part of their single 2008 forest\domain.  Can I work 
some DNS\Outlook mojo where if a private network path goes down, Outlook will 
go to the Internet to talk to Exchange from an internal network segment?  Any 
other options besides sending everything to the Interwebs be default?

I know Microsoft released a set of the Exchange 2003 System Manager tools so 
you can run them on Windows Vista. They also seem to work ok on Windows 7.

However, they are a problem on the 64 bit versions of same. The biggest issue 
I'm having so far is that when installed on 64 bit Windows Vista, ADUC doesn't 
show any of the Exchange tabs.

Has anyone been able to get these to work on a 64 bit OS or am I SOL?

If you are running the DAG wizard/cmdlets on one of your exchange mailbox 
servers that will be in the DAG - then add the REMOTE ONE FIRST (there is a bug 
about the permissions associated with the CNO if you don't do it that way - 
alternately, run the wizard elsewhere).

You don't say how/when you are allocating IP addresses to the DAG, which is an

Good morning everyone

For those who have had experience so far in setting up a DAG - whether it was 
for testing or production - I wonder if you could help me?

I've been following the excellent instructions over at 
www.msexchange.org<http://www.msexchange.org>, beginning with part 1:

http://www.msexchange.org/articles_tutorials/exchange-server-2010/high-availability-recovery/uncovering-exchange-2010-database-availability-groups-dags-part1.html

My environment for this purpose is:


 *   Physical Windows Server 2008 Enterprise for the witness.
 *   Virtual Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard domain controller.
 *   2  x virtual Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise Exchange 2010 RU2 servers.


 *   I am using ESXi as my virtualisation platform.
 *   My DC is a brand new build, dcpromod to Windows Server 2008 R2 forest 
functional level. For the purpose of my testing, it's running DNS.
 *   The two Exchange servers have two virtual NICs installed and configured as 
replication and MAPI networks.

My problem is related to DAGs, and perhaps clustering. The DAG itself is 
created normally. It is when I come to add my two Exchange servers to the DAG 
that the problem(s) begin:

 1.  The first server is added to the DAG with no errors.
 2.  Upon configuration of the second server, an IP address conflict is 
reported. The IP conflicting is that of the first server. To me this makes no 
sense! Both interfaces on both servers have hardcoded IP information.
 3.  The DAG will then not come online, even after assigning an IP address to 
it.
 4.  This error is reported in the cluster event log on both servers:
Cluster network name resource 'Cluster Name' cannot be brought online. The 
computer object associated with the resource could not be updated in domain 
'domain'. The error code was 'Unable to find computer account on DC where it 
was created'. The cluster identity 'DAG1$' may lack permissions required to 
update the object. Please work with your domain administrator to ensure that 
the cluster identity can update computer objects in the domain.

If you've made it this far, could you share your experience with the process 
and offer any tips as to why this isn't going as smoothly as I told myself it

Thanks! Sounds promising. I'm assigning the IP address using 
"Set-DatabaseAvailabilityGroup -DatabaseAvailabilityGroupIPv4Address  " 
cmdlet, AFTER the two servers have been added as members. I should probably add 
the IP address immediately after creating the DAG, I presume?

I'll do this now, you will hear me shout from the rooftops or crying into my

If you are running the DAG wizard/cmdlets on one of your exchange mailbox 
servers that will be in the DAG - then add the REMOTE ONE FIRST (there is a bug 
about the permissions associated with the CNO if you don't do it that way - 
alternately, run the wizard elsewhere).

You don't say how/when you are allocating IP addresses to the DAG, which is an 
important consideration in this scenario.

Good morning everyone

For those who have had experience so far in setting up a DAG - whether it was 
for testing or production - I wonder if you could help me?

I've been following the excellent instructions over at 
www.msexchange.org, beginning with part 1:

http://www.msexchange.org/articles_tutorials/exchange-server-2010/high-availability-recovery/uncovering-exchange-2010-database-availability-groups-dags-part1.html

My environment for this purpose is:


 *   Physical Windows Server 2008 Enterprise for the witness.
 *   Virtual Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard domain controller.
 *   2  x virtual Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise Exchange 2010 RU2 servers.


 *   I am using ESXi as my virtualisation platform.
 *   My DC is a brand new build, dcpromod to Windows Server 2008 R2 forest 
functional level. For the purpose of my testing, it's running DNS.
 *   The two Exchange servers have two virtual NICs installed and configured as 
replication and MAPI networks.

My problem is related to DAGs, and perhaps clustering. The DAG itself is 
created normally. It is when I come to add my two Exchange servers to the DAG 
that the problem(s) begin:

 1.  The first server is added to the DAG with no errors.

TWO MEDICAL STUDENTS AND THE OLD MAN


Two medical students were walking along the street when they saw an old man 
walking with his legs spread apart. He was stiff-legged and walking slowly.

One student said to his friend: "I'm sure that poor old man has Peltry 
Syndrome. Those people walk just like that."

The other student says: "No, I don't think so. The old man surely has Zovitzki 
Syndrome. He walks slowly and his legs are apart just as we learned in class."

Since they couldn't agree they decided to ask the old man. They approached him 
and one of the students said to him: "We're medical students and couldn't help 
but notice the way you walk, but we couldn't agree on the syndrome you might 
have. Could you tell us what it is?"
The old man said, "I'll tell you, but first you tell me what you two fine 
medical students think."

The first student said, "I think it's Peltry Syndrome."

The old man said, "You thought But you are wrong."
The other student said, "I think you have Zovitzki Syndrome."

The old man said, "You thought... But you are wrong."

So they asked him, "Well, old timer, what do you have?"

The old man said, "I thought it was GAS..
But I was wrong, too!"

Hi Guys

I've got a single, very senior user, who has an issue with seeing other users 
free busy times. It doesn't appear to matter whether it's on the same server or 
on another site. Eventually suggestions time out and the free busy bar goes to 
the hashed grey line of no data available.

Anyone got any ideas? I've tried with both cached mode on and off with no luck.

It's Exchange Server 2007 SP1 and the user is using Outlook 2007 SP2.

Mr. Caesare, this is especially for you since you need a laugh or two to get 
you through the long day/night you have scheduled.  Warning, some may find this 
politically, moraly or gender(ly) incorrect, but it's one of the funniest

Subject: Distribution lists

Afternoon Exchange gurus

Is it possible to have the "All Staff" distribution list (or any other, really) 
set up so that when an email is sent to it, it goes to an administrator for 
approval first? I am sick of getting emails that say "there is a salesman 
selling cards in reception" and when someone spammed the DL with a hoax that 
was well-documented on snopes.com, I ended up getting a 
reprimand from my boss about being harsh to users. I only threatened to remove 
her ability to send to the DL. Sheesh. I know that we shouldn't give all users 
the ability to send to it, but I doubt I am going to shift my boss's boss's 
stance on this one.

Any other pointers would be also gratefully received, I am not much of an 
Exchange bod.

TIA,


JRR

I use rsync :)
VSS snaps the db at its current state, then rsync transfers only the

it's pretty bloody cool, if I need more retention I just add to the pool.

Given the unsupported nature, I only did this at home with my stuff for
some time, but since my home and work is all virtualized, verifying backups

VSS snapshots have the ability to merge differences/deltas in an

being only as good as the last full, but if VSS can merge deltas into
the original mdb, that must conserve a significant throughput strain.

I've had VIPRE Enterprise on my church's network for 6+ months without issues.  
This was an upgrade from AVG Pro.  It has already prevented several malware 
infections from casual web browsing.

I've just switched from McAfee to VIPRE on my 180+ node network here when my 
McAfee maintenance expired.  It's catching stuff that McAfee ignored, is MUCH 
easier to manage, and runs noticeably lighter (except when scanning).  I've had 
none of the issues others have experienced and recommend it highly.  One of the 
biggest advantages is Sunbelt's superior US support.

I know this is a sunbelt list but I would like to hear some opinions of VIPRE 
and how you compare it against other AV, anitmalware products.  I currently use 
TrendMicro and have no issues with it.  It has caught most virus' that come 
through and missed a few.  I know VIPRE is cheaper and uses little processing 
power when it runs.  What i am trying to figure out is any downside to moving 
over to it.  I know when i used counterspy when it first came out we used to 
run into problems where it would quarantine files it shouldn't have like 
windows associated dll's or something like it.  Has this changed?  we sometime 
deal with some development software and i don't want to get a bunch of calls if 
the software is too aggressive after an update.


Hope that make sense.  I appreciate any input you may have.

David,
I have deployed Vipre to dozens of Enterprise clients as well the home version 
to everyone who has asked me to help them with their "slow Internet" at home.  
The Enterprise deployments have been migrations from Mcafee, Trend, Syman-crap 
and greenfield deployments all without issue.  I realize I sound like a 
commercial but this solution is freakin' rock solid.  Feel free to contact me 
offlist is you would like further information.

Join the FB crowd Marvin, resistance is futile.

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.

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

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.

Sent: 12 January 2009 14:17
To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues
Subject: RE: Incremental backups

I cover Exchange backups in detail in Chapter 12 of my upcoming book which 
should be available any minute now. Please buy it. :)

Here is an excerpt that answers your question.

Backup Types

As you might expect, there are a number of kinds of Exchange database backups. 
They all map directly to standard filesystem types of backups and thus share 
similar names. However, there are only two database backup types that you can 
use without another backup: normal and copy. All of the other backups will 
require a normal backup to be useful.

type="note"

The backup types discussed in the following sections apply both to streaming 
backups and to VSS backups.

Generally speaking, the easiest mechanism for recovery is daily normal backups. 
The mechanism that uses the least media is a weekly normal backup plus daily 
incremental backups, at the expense of a much more complicated recovery. The 
standard compromise is a normal backup each weekend with differential backups 
during the week. When it comes time to recover-as almost everyone has to do 
eventually-you will thank yourself if you have made daily normal backups. You 
absolutely should do daily backups and retain them until at least the next 
successful backup has been done.

OpsMgr generates a warning alert if transaction logs are not flushed within a 
period of three days and generates an error alert if transaction logs are not 
flushed within a week. Transaction logs are flushed only by normal (full) 
backups and by incremental backups.

Normal Backups

A normal backup is also known as a full backup. This is the backup type that 
most people probably think of when they think of a backup. A normal backup 
copies the entire database, and the backup can be restored on its own.

A normal backup will remove (flush) all current transaction logs if the normal 
backup is successful and update the database header indicating that a full 
backup occurred with a particular time stamp (signature).

To think of it in terms of a filesystem backup, a normal backup backs up 
everything and clears the archive bit; that is, it indicates that the file has 
been backed up.

Copy Backups

A copy backup is similar to a normal backup. However, a copy backup does not 
flush transaction logs, and it doesn't update the database header.

You can use the copy backup to fully restore to the point of a backup and roll 
forward from there.

Generally speaking, if a support person asks you to make a backup of your 
database(s) outside of your normal backup rotation, you should be doing a copy 
backup and not a normal (full) backup. This preserves your options in the case 
of requiring any reload or restore. Executing a normal (full) backup outside 
your normal rotation can possibly complicate a recovery scenario if transaction 
logs need to be replayed.

To consider it in terms of a filesystem backup, a copy backup backs up 
everything but does not clear the archive bit.

Daily Backups

A daily backup bears some resemblance to differential and incremental backups. 
A daily backup will back up the transaction logs that were generated today. 
This is not a recommended way to back up an Exchange database since it can 
potentially have missing transaction logs (consider that a transaction log was 
in use and not available for backup at midnight).

To consider it in terms of a filesystem backup, a daily backup backs up 
everything modified or created today but does not clear the archive bit.

Incremental Backups

An incremental backup will back up all created transaction logs since the last 
normal backup or incremental backup, and then it flushes the transaction logs. 
This is a mechanism to keep your transaction log volume clean, at the expense 
of complicating your restore/recovery process.

To consider it in terms of a filesystem backup, an incremental backup backs up 
everything created or modified since the last normal or incremental backup and 
then clears the archive bit.

normal or incremental backup. It does not flush the trans

Gee thanks! :)
I’m having the joy of trying to clean up AD after my last E2k3 box wouldn’t 
uninstall via the wizard, so I had to do it manually. I think I am now down to 
just having to decide whether or not to remove that legacy group via ADUC and 
the First Administrative Group via ADSI. No better way to spend a Friday night!

If you have no Exchange 2000/2003 servers in a domain, is it safe to remove the 
ExchangeLegacyInterop group from ADUC?

No AGs actually get removed.

And that is correct, nothing is harmed by them being present.

Excellent! Thank you very much!!!
Am I correct in understanding that The First Administrative Group gets left
in place and has to be manually removed via the console (if desired) due to
the reliance on it by Outlook pre-2007? Although theoretically it does no
harm to have it there even when fully upgraded to Outlook 2007.

LOL...Sounds like a plan.
I found a number of articles that said what it is and why it's there
(although it is kind of self-descriptive), but not a single article that
says if you can remove it after getting rid of all your legacy Exchange
servers. Anyone out there who has put all their Exchange 2003 servers to
rest that can tell me if this group still exists after uninstalling the last
E2k3 server?

The ExchangeLegacyInterop group contains Exchange 2003 or Exchange 2000
bridgehead servers. A bridgehead server is added to this group when the
first Exchange 2007 Hub Transport server is installed.

I would guess if you haven't any bridgeheads you should be good.  But if
things go afoul, blame MBS.
