RE: Removing ADC from E2k3 org

Step 5 says: Under System Folders, click to expand Offline Address Book to select the Offline Address Book (OAB). The OAB should be of the form EX:/O=ORG/OU=Site Right click the folder and click Properties, then click the Replication tab. When I right-click for properties, I get a popup that says: --Begin popup text-- The mail proxy for this folder cannot be found. This may be due to replication delays. The mail enabled pages will not be shown. ID no: 1038a21 Exchange System Manager ---End popup text-- I've found this article, which seems to address my situation: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/328740 My question is: Has anyone here done this, and what might be the gotchas in doing either of the procedures outlined? I'm guessing that the first procedure is the one that applies to my situation, because I've recently decommissioned my last Ex5.5 server, but have not yet removed the ADC. This article makes me a bit nervous, though, so I'm looking for a bit of guidance before I step off the cliff.

RE: Update: Exchange on VM
I am putting up a five node cluster and migrating 30 production servers to Hyper-v this weekend for a banking /insurance company that I work for. I am all for doing Hyper-v in production. Hyper-v is not a built from the ground up product it is built on a 5+ year old bit of technology that Microsoft bought and has continued to improve on and build on in-house. I agree with you, Hyper-v does have a limited extended feature set when you compare it to VMware; DR [3], VM to hardware and back migration tools, better management stuff, and so on. However, It is my feeling [1] that the gap in extended features will quickly narrow. Like RDP and Citrix(ICA), the products will have a similar core feature set and VMware will hang on with the very cool Extra features that some people cannot live without. I remember something from working at Microsoft that they aim for 80-85% of the features that everyone needs or something when they come out with a product like Hyper-V, and leave the rest to other vendors. [1] I might be able to back this up but I will never say [2] [2] bloody NDA's [3] For offsite redundancy I have a FIOS Line (200$ for 15MB) to another site that snaps and trickle backups all of my images with DPM [4].

I don't feel so comfortable about running permission altering things when I don't fully understand the repercussions. 2) What is the proper way to grant this permission, I see one posting that has a syntax granting it to a particular user (-user 'domain\username') and another one that uses -user AU (which I have no idea what AU stands for, but implies that it grants it to everyone). Has anyone run into this and have a suggestion? Its worth noting that there are several accounts also that have no problem sending and seem to work fine. Also I am talking specifically about users using IMAP/SMTP and not MAPI. Thanks! Ehren J.

RE: Strange pair of events twice daily
I was, at one time, part of the team that wrote those errors [1]. The ones that I dealt with for E2K7 made sense to when I reviewed or wrote them, or when I wrote the articles that described how to fix them. The error has to be as small and informative as possible, and work from more than one point of view, and be localizable. They are getting better, but there is always room for improvement. To be better heard remember that for any topic or error that you can rate or comment on in the help on MSDN or on Technet comment it with your feedback. That feedback is automatically entered in to the bug tracking software at Microsoft and assigned to the person responsible for the document or area of the code base. If possible the documents are changed, if not the feedback is applied to future work. If you are really bold leave your email address in the comment and ask for a response. I made a point of always responding to those that gave me feedback, most others on the Exchange team are the same way. [1] I had a brilliant editor on my team who made sure that it sounded good when I was done with it. ~Kevinm WLKMMAS powered by 3Sharphttp://www.3sharp.com/, Always WLKMMAShttp://www.wlkmmas.org/ What is your Zombie Plan?

OT: Exchange Failover Product..
I am all about your Direction. Exchange 2007 sounds like a much better solution, no offence to Stu... insert self promotion bit that made me laugh We had a customer ask us for references for an Exchange engagement today. As part of the reference package we sent them an Amazon book list.

RE: Exchange Failover Product..
I've been anti-cluster for a very long time. the only good cluster is a single node -Ed | I have always agreed with him Lately I have been building Clusters and putting VM's on them; I am starting to feel that that is the best way to do it. Your Cluster becomes a hardware pool with redundancy that you can place virtual machines on. You can optimize the hardware pool resource allocation to the virtuals on the fly; adding and removing ram and what not as needed. It makes it very simple to add more hardware to your servers, you just add another cluster node and move the VM to the new hardware, takes minutes in the users eyes. No need to migrate or fiddle with server names and IP address and crap like we have to do on dedicated hardware. ~2000$ for an 8 proc server with 16GB or ram, and ~2000$ for Windows server 2008 enterprise ( comes with 4 VM server cals, for 6k you can run datacenter and have unlimited VM's) to add a node that can support 1-10+ VM's depending on what you need. Well you have to storage in there. I just build a 4TB NAS running open filer ( 8 x 1tb drives in raid 0+1 for I/O) for like 3500$ or something.

Smith [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, May 13, 2008 2:51 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Exchange Failover Product.. Clusters allow a well-managed server farm to go from 99.9% availability to 99.99% availability. Emphasis on well-managed. Those are, quite frankly, few and far between. In most shops that I've seen, clusters actually reduce availability. These days, you can install Exchange, configure it a little bit, set up your backups, and it'll just hum along for you for months and months without requiring you to touch it. Run a patch install at 3am on Sunday morning once a month, and you're done. If you buy good hardware for the server - you'll probably not have to touch it except when a disk needs replacing. And of course, you have SMART/SCSI monitoring, so you know when that happens, you pick up a phone and order a disk, it's hot-swappable and auto-rebuild. Or you have it in inventory because e-mail is a critical service. You're done. No frickin' way you get off that easy with a cluster. It requires a LOT more care and feeding. In certain (very rare) circumstances, I can believe that that expert care and feeding is worth 0.09% increased availability. But honestly, I don't think I've EVER seen one. Regards, Michael B.

Is there a way to create a new IIS site that still points at the same exchange folder structure as the current Default Site but that is set to accept a different hostname?

RE: Question about Exchange 2007 Transport Rules
So your problem is that you really need to find a new job, because your ducks are drinking water outside of some toxic waste dump or something, and they have done nuts.

RE: reclaiming space
Move everyone else out to a new database, then delete the old one. From: SMREKAR, JACK [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, March 25, 2008 8:44 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: reclaiming space I have moved a couple hundred mailboxes from one Exchange server to another in hopes of reclaiming some space on the first server.

I do run the online maintenance of the databases that is built inside of the system manager. I also get emails nightly on what was done. Below is one that I got last night. I was under the impression that Exchange would clean itself up after the moves and allow the database to shrink after it ran the maintenance. Do I have something set wrong or is my thinking wrong.

Just thought folks out there getting ready to upgrade might want to hear the story. I just spent the night upgrading (or trying to upgrade) my exchange 5.5 server. We have a very simple network. 1 domain. 200 users. 1 exchange server. 2 domain controllers (not the exchange server). Started about 2 weeks ago prepping for upgrade. Armed with: White Paper in-place upgrade from msoft exchange 5.5 to msoft exchange 2000 Q316886 How To: Migrate from exchange server 5.5 to exchange 2000 server Q282309 upgrading exchange server 5.5 service pack 4 to exchange 2000 server Q295922 considerations when you upgrade to exchange 2000 server Q296260 how to configure a two-way recipient connection agreement for exchange server 5.5 users Q253829 description of the active directory connector deletion mechanism And, of course, monitored this list (and the sun-exchange) one for upgrade ideas! Now some of the documents have conflicting information. If you weed thru the dates and such you can usually figure out what is really true. For example, the white paper states you MUST have at least one domain running in native mode, but the HOW TO describes a scenario where all domains are in mixed mode. With the domain controllers upgraded to win2k active directory (mixed mode) last month I tackled the exchange upgrade this month. Went thru the white paper and how to, updating the schema (forestprep and domainprep) and ran all the tests listed in those docs to verify it was working. Got exactly the results they told me! First time I ran the actual upgrade got my first rude surprise. My vendor had shipped me the Exchange 2000 standard edition media (which doesn't really say standard on it, just Exchange 2000) and the upgrade process stopped immediately with You can't go from enterprise to standard you idiot Two days later I have the correct media. Take the server off the network and run an online backup (Veritas backup exec with exchange option). Verify the backup worked. With exchange services down get back on the network and run domain tests again. Everything ok! Run the upgrade! The upgrade goes thru several processes but hangs at Setup failed while installing sub-component Site Replication Service with error code 0xC007041D -- retry or cancel search MS knowledge base and looks like a permissions issue (Q278254 and Q273730). Hmm, make sure the exchange service account has all the permissions and click retry. Still no work. Rats. Getting late so time to make the $250 call to PSS! PSS steps me thru lots of stuff, nothing works. They have me change the service account user permissions at the ORG container from CUSTOM to SERVICE ACCOUNT (i'm probably not saying this exactly correct). Still no joy. Try to cancel out of that error message. Nada. Have to task manager/shut down process. They then refer me to the ultimate nightmare: Q264309 - How to Roll Back A failed Upgraded from Exchange Server 5.5. to Exchange 2000. Yuck. Go into registry and delete the stuff, rename the exchsrvr folders, uninstall IIS, restart server, install IIS, re-apply all service packs and hotfixes (that really sucks), delete the renamed exchsrvr folders, setup /r exchange 5.5, restore directory and info store. Restoring directory service doesn't work. Call PSS back. Directory service was trying to start and got hung, can't restore to hung service. Change to manual start and reboot. Directory restores!!! Restore info store. (8 gigs). 2 hours later ready to go! (almost) Now the internet mail connector isn't working. Dawn is breaking and panic begins to creep in. Users will be screaming in about 2 hours. Call PSS again. End up deleting the IMC and creating a new one. They very patiently step me through lots of good stuff, including making sure I'm not an internet relay and that I'm not doing circular logs. They even stand by while I reinstall my Anti-virus for exchange. Everything is working. It's now 7am and I'm back to my original pre-upgrade status from 7pm the night before. Problem summary: PSS thinks that the problem was caused by the mail service account user not having complete permissions at the org

Basically what I'm looking for is a new user installing messenger and not having to add each person individually. I tried to pull the info from the registry and add the key file through a script, but the key folder name is the user's name and %username% doesn't work for a key. Can someone help? I guess the only other way I know of would be to create a VB script which would rewrite the .reg file for each person as they are logging on pulling the user's name through %username% (by batch script) and adding it to the new .reg file in the appropriate place. Anyone got a better idea, please let me know.

Greetings all: I have a fairly basic question here since I'm an interim Exchange administrator (have done some of the basic server check/account management stuff but the primary EA left in a hurry - and unlike most of my sysadmin cohorts, I've actually had Exchange training). Environment: Exchange 5.5, SP4, on NT4 SP6a machines I got asked if there was some way we could check through Information Stores for messages with a particular text in the subject. I ask around, call Microsoft, and learn about Exmerge for subject line and attachment search. I run a quick test and it performs as promised. Schweet! So of course the next question is ... Can we search the IS by sender, or recipient. Cohort thinks he finds something in EA and tests it out ... only to be advised that message logging needs to be on for this to work. We have a ~10K user GAL and our servers have space problems as it is. We _don't_ want to turn logging on. I may be dumb but I'm not entirely stupid. I checked the website of Our Beloved Sponsor and saw a few products that might fit the bill ... but of course they cost money. Possibly lots of money since we have such a big environment. I'll check with our sunbelt rep for the details and advise TPTB what that functionality might cost them but in the meantime: Does anyone know of a good and preferably inexpensive tool that does searches on an IS similar to the Outlook search function without having message logging turned on? Currently I'm looking for header search type stuff, although I'm sure that if I came up with something for that, they'd ask about body text. Apologies if this was covered recently - I've been subscribed for a week or so but have not had time to slog through the archives yet (having trouble keeping up with the current volume, actually ... even in the digest single-daily-dose. But tell me to do BLBs and the fish tacos get it ;-).
