RE: EAS Attachments

2013-04-04 Thread PRamatowski
Exchange 2010  (SP2 and rollups)

Can't speak directly for the Z10 behavior but on my iPhone -
With an 11mb video (.3gp) attachment- the message appears and in the message I 
get a button to click if I want the full message. Ditto with a 7mb txt file. A 
10K txt file just comes as an attachment to open. I don't know where the cutoff 
is for whole attachment vs. option to download.

Org-Client Access-Exchange EAS Mailbox Policies-Sync Settings
You can configure a Max attachment size in Kb here.

Last question I guess it depends if you have many BB's that won't do EAS and so 
on. I loved mine but the winds of change are slowing blowing them away around 
here, and for free, I just go with what I'm given. We're supposed to be getting 
a couple Z10's next week to play with- unless there is some kind of showstopper 
we don't know about they'll be EAS.

Subject: EAS Attachments

Hi all,

Just had some users call me saying they just got the new BB Z10. Good for them 
but now they can't activate  it because we run BES 5 and we haven't been yet 
looking at BES10.

Only thing i can think of right now to help them out, is to configure EAS on 
their new BB device.

I am trying to find out EAS' behavior in case someone receives a 10MB 
attachment in an email, do the attachment get downloaded automatically, are 
there any limits, is it configurable?


Moving forward, as RIM has announced full EAS support, is it worthwhile 
continuing with BES server licenses if your device management needs are very 
low?

Thank you for any comments as always.

We also have gotten a couple of inquiries.  One was a little irate asking who 
setup this policy and where is it published that we can do this to his phone.  
Its opened up a can of worms for us even though we use the default policy and 
don't place any restrictions on the users.  I guess we are going to have to 
publish something on our site explaining that although we have these 
capabilities...we don't use them.  We also don't wipe phones unless requested 
by our security department of which we have had maybe 2 for 15,000 accounts in

I've just received a call from an Exec who has just upgraded his Android. When 
he attempts to connect to our Exchange 2007 server, he's getting a security 
policy screen that says we can disable the camera, wipe the unit, etc.   
Although we haven't updated anything on the server recently, this is the first 
time we've seen this message at our company.

I've done a bit of googling and I found the screen where these settings are set 
up. We have a default policy that is set to Microsoft's defaults. Everything is 
set to Allow. I note that we would need Exchange Enterprise CALs to make 
changes to the settings and I don't think we have any of those.

I'm not sure what to tell the Exec. Is this policy acceptance screen just a 
catch all? How can we be assured that it's not going to hose his phone?

 I'm starting to believe that, judging on the huge amount of unanswered 
 questions on various forums (including Microsoft), that the Exchange 2010 
 retention and archiving policies are just plain buggy.

 We assigned a retention policy to another group of users and the archiving 
 part isn't working for one of them.  In searching for a solution I ran across 
 several references to adding a X500 address to the mailbox based on the 
 legacyexchangedn.

 Does this make sense?  Has anyone here tried this or had to do it?  Thoughts?

Wait, original account was disabled, or deleted?  If disabled, all you need to

We have an account that was disabled accidentally.  I recreated the account in

not.  Anyone have any suggestions?

RE: Personal Contact Report - Exchange 2010

2013-01-06 Thread PRamatowski
Oh no, I didn't word that very well did ii... I meant a user created Contact 
folder that was not a sub folder of the System Contact folder.

We have some folks that are very creative They'll create  folders based on  
particular projects or advertisers.  So under Project A, they'll create 
subfolders  called  Inbox, Sent Items, Contacts etc. and drag everything having 
to do with Project A to those folders.  Those are the ones I haven't been able 
to grab w/o using the query.

The one stamped 12:04 is the first export I did, before creating a contact

The one stamped 12:41 has a folder (zcont) which is off the root of my mailbox.

Subject: Mailbox move - ICON appearance in EMC question

Greetings,

Exchange 2010 SP2 UR3.

For various reasons, I will be moving some user mailboxes  from one DB to 
another.
Per my first mailbox move test, all went well using EMC to do this and user 
mailbox when clicking on it in EMC shows now in the destination DB.

My question ( and I have been refreshing the EMC):
Under EMC – Recipient Configuration – Mailbox – Display Name, the mailbox I 
moved shows a green arrow on the ICON for the user that points to the right.
I am not certain what the green arrow on the ICON means?
Will the user mailbox display name  ICON  always show the green arrow, or will 
that eventually change with refreshed EMC views.
If that is normal for mailboxes that have been moved, we just need to know.

Thanks for your input.

Dana

The request is to set up a mailbox so department staff can  send individual

and instead get a Reply bounce back – as they don’t want to monitor student 
responses to the notifications that come back to the mailbox.

there is a simple way to set a mail box for send-only in the rare case we may 
need this.

Ok, I wasn't going to ask but I'll shake the tree I know this has to be 
something silly but I can't figure it out.

Two different AD structures, W2008R2 abounds; two way trust in place
Exchange 2010 sp2
Mailbox and User account exist in the same domain in forest1

User account  migrated with SID history using ADMT to a domain in forest 2.
AD schema in the second forest has been prepped for E2010 (so I hear) but no 
Exchange servers exist.

Migrated user account can access their mailbox back in forest1's domain using 
Outlook.
Migrated user account tries to access the mailbox back in forest 1 with OWA and 
it fails with this error-


Access is denied. The Active Directory resource couldn't be accessed. This may 
be because the Active Directory object doesn't exist or the object has become 
corrupted, or because you don't have the correct permissions.

Sidfiltering is disabled.
How long since the migration? account migrated several days ago
Any IIS events on the CAS? Can see it (workstation at 10.200) hitting the CAS 
(172.17) This is the only entry thing found on the CAS box.

Subject: Disk usage goes through the roof but only for minutes

Hi all

This happens to us once every week or so. It's never the same database, server, 
time of day or anything else you can attribute a pattern to.

The problem is that, out of the blue, we will suddenly see the disk for a 
particular database suddenly start running out of space. In some cases we've 
seen it drop by ~1GB/min. By the time our monitoring has noticed, and we 
notice, and investigate, the disk space has been reclaimed. It's very odd. The 
database itself stays the same size.

On the rare occasion we've been able to take a look, the indexes seem to be 
causing the problem.

I'm just wondering if anyone else has come across something like this? The two 
dirs below were taken about 60 seconds apart.

We always suggest the user only have 1 delegate and if they need to have 
more, make only one an Editor.

RE: Meeting requests keep coming

2012-10-02 Thread PRamatowski
This is kind of wandering from the 3rd party question but still kind of 
relevant...

No, it wasn't GFE, he ended up keeping that because he didn't have to remember 
to change passwords:)  Long story short it was just too much going on...

Short story long...

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/899704
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook-help/outlook-meeting-requests-essential-dos-and-donts-HA001127678.aspx

in some cases I think you can take a line like this and turn one computer into  
$handheld.

If you run Outlook on two computers and accept a meeting while using one of 
them, don't delete the meeting request from the Inbox on the other computer.

We'd see (especially with multiple devices, where appointments/meetings would 
just get out of sync.  I don't understand why someone would be paying that much 
attention staring at all the devices at once but  we watched people accepting a 
meeting on dev1, still seeing the request on dev2 they would delete that one, 
and end up with deity knows what  between the different device calendars and 
Outlook.  Also thrown into the mix 
whether or not a delegate was involved, whether or not they were the organizer, 
whether or not the meeting was recurring, and had instructions been followed 
for sending updates properly.Ugh, 

Where I mentioned the old droid- it was supposedly in a drawer at home, one of 
the kids had hold of it (because new iDevices, woo-hoo!) and was playing with 
it :) Fortunately the password on it expired causing some of the calendar 
issues to go away; it was a nice diversion figuring out what was locking the 
account!  
::sigh::

Also there are issues with running EAS and GOOD on the same device (why would 
you ever want to do that, I don't know but our users will try anything...) 
Can't find the articles at the moment...

 We run into Calendar issues once in a while here and they usually involve 
 Delegates and mobile devices.
 
 We always suggest the user only have 1 delegate and if they need to have 
 more, make only one an Editor.
 
 Along with that, never act on any Calendar items (create, accept, revise,

RE: Shared calendar notifications in Outlook

Oh I see...

I played with it a bit,  and have the OWA bit doing it.  not there in Outlook.
$search engine for  ' Appointment Created Notification outlook' comes up with

What I'm asking about though is after the Calendar has been shared. Tom has 
shared his Calendar with Bob and given him Editor rights.
Bob wants to use Outlook to create an appointment on Tom's Calendar and have 
Tom get an email notifying him about the event. If Bob creates the appointment 
via OWA, there is a Notify Tom checkbox he can click. There is no such option 
in Outlook (from what I can find).

When they create an appointment on a shared calendar in OWA, they get an option 
to notify the calendar owner. They're asking if Outlook 2010 can do the same 
thing.

We're on Exchange 2010 SP2; and the Notify option is shown here:

Hello all,

I'm a little more than a year removed from any real Exchange management but I 
am loosely involved with my company's re-vitalized effort to migrate from 
Exchange 2003 to Exchange 2010. We recently had an Exchange PFE onsite to 
assist with a high-level design for our environment. One of the recommendations 
kind of threw me for a loop and I wanted to get some feedback from those of you 
running Exchange 2010.

Disable Hyper-threading - 
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd346699.aspx: The article states:

Hyperthreading causes capacity planning and monitoring challenges, and as a 
result, the expected gain in CPU overhead is likely not justified. 
Hyperthreading should be disabled by default for production Exchange servers 
and only enabled if absolutely necessary as a temporary measure to increase CPU 
capacity until additional hardware can be obtained.

What capacity planning and monitoring challenges are introduced? We've been 
running hyper-threaded multi-core servers for many, many years and I can't 
think of any challenges that were introduced. Is there a specific scenario I'm 
not thinking about that is specific to Exchange capacity planning or monitoring?
FWIW, we have 6 physical servers which will be evenly distributed between two 
active sites based on the latest design. Servers are Dell PowerEdge M610 blade 
servers with dual 6-core procs, 24GB memory, QLogic 8GB HBAs* connecting to 
Compellent Storage.

*3 servers at one site will actually leverage infiniband (4x40GB) connectivity 
to Xsigo directors which will distribute vHBAs and vNICs.

Any insight would be appreciated.

Subject: Issue with Microsoft NLB for my CAS array

Exchange 2010 SP2 RU3

I have 3 CAS servers in a Microsoft NLB cluster.  I have a few users that have 
been complaining of either slow connection when opening Outlook in the morning, 
or no connection whatsoever.  I did some digging around and ended up doing some 
testing as follows:

Created entries in my HOSTS file, to point the cluster FQDN to each node 
individually, one at a time.  I get the following results:


1)  CAS1 – immediate, fast connection

2)  CAS2 – has about a 20 second delay before connecting

3)  CAS3 – never connects, ends up in a disconnected state.

Closing and re-opening Outlook has no effect on which behavior a client gets.  
Once they get into the CAS3 issue, they stay there, and the only thing that 
helps is creating an entry in their HOSTS file to point them to one of the 
other nodes.  Not a real answer, though.  I do have Single Affinity setup on 
all the port rules, which does explain this behavior.  The CAS servers are VMs, 
on ESX5 hosts.  The cluster is in multicast mode, and we’ve done the documented 
configuration on the virtual switches to accommodate this.  I’ve verified that 
each host is setup the same way within NLB, so I have no idea why they are 
giving such different connection experiences.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Joe

Have never dealt with your situation exactly- have been doing email since Well,

Have similar here where there is an internal name vs a stage or on air name

Subject: exchange hidden addresses

Hi:

Just wondering if anyone supporting education can pipe in on this question.

If you have hidden students email accounts to protect privacy concerns on 
premise, you have probably run into issues where user A(Hidden) emails  User B 
(unhidden).  User B forwards the email from the hidden user to User C to deal 
with.  Now User C decides to send a reply email to User A (hidden), and can’t 
see them in the GAL or their return email address in the email. User C  could 
possibly find out about their email via email headers or create a contact (uses 
legacyexchangedn for address).  Besides having a possible regret about hiding 
student email accounts, what have others done with hidden accounts?


1.Do you hide accounts in the GAL (if so how do you deal with above 
situation or is there a work around??)

2.   Do you hide accounts to protect privacy?

3.   Has anyone used GAL segmentation to possibly help with this.?

4.   If you managed to solve this with GAL segmentation…what options do you 
have for office 365? (I believe GAL segmentation isn’t there yet)

Thanks

Kevin

Hi guys,

All of a sudden nobody in our ORG is receiving emails sent to distribution 
group. Emails are sent (they show up in the Sent Items in Outlook), they don't 
generate NDR (yet) nor Delivery Receipt, i cannot track them as they don't show 
up in the tracking center.

All other email flow is OK, so i suspect it is a problem with email routing or 
distribution queries to AD that are gone wrong,...Our default routing group is 
sending emails through a smarthost. But as far i know local emails are not 
leaving the mailbox server so i don't think it is necessarily a problem with 
the smarthost.
On top of that, there is another issue with email forwarding, if users have a 
forwarding enabled on their mailbox account the forwarding does not work.

So it really looks like AD or DNS problem but i cant find what. All dns logs 
are clean, dns queries on Exchange server is running fine. I have ran a DNS BPA 
on the DNS server roles and everything is OK as for the AD role

Exchange servers are running on version 2003 SP2.

I should have added that we prepared last week our AD for e2k10...

I have always used PS to create like so:

Providing the backup restored is valid, I just mount the Db and go, but I have

We use NetBackup instead of BackupExec, it throws logs and DB into one lump.

restoring the data to them, running eseutil to clean up the dirty shutdown and 
then mounting.

The other involves using Powershell to create a recovery database and then 
restoring to it.  Specifically:
New-MailboxDatabase -Recovery -Name RDB1 -Server MBX2

So what's the major difference between the two methods?  I don't see any

there.  Now we're looking at Exchange 2010 and Symantec BackupExec goes out and 
finds Exchange and backs up the DAG, which contains the databases.  So in the 
case of a Recovery Database, I would just create it on one of the mail servers 
and outside of the DAG, then restore the mailbox database to it and then go 
through the eseutil and such to get it mountable.  What I'm not seeing is any 
indication of log files when I expand the restore tree, unless they're lumping 
the db and log backup into one package.  Has anyone did a Recovery Database

RE: Dag Question regarding Cass.

2012-06-18 Thread PRamatowski

I wonder if in a backhanded sort of way-if SP2 RU3 would do something
Current - Clients connect to DB in primary site.
Change - you said you need to switch primary and secondary sites around. If 
you're making the DB active in what is now the secondary site...

[3] After applying Exchange 2010 RU3, customers' mailboxes that are moved 
between Active Directory sites will have their profiles updated correctly. 
Also, admins can control whether to allow the cross-site RPC connectivity 
(default) or to force 
Outlookhttp://searchexchange.techtarget.com/feature/Guide-Troubleshooting-Microsoft-Outlook
 to use the RPC Client Access Server array in the same Active Directory site as 
the activated and mounted database

No, once the mail profile has the name of a CAS array, it won't get updated if 
you change the RPCClientAccessServer property on the database.

What I think most people do is have a short TTL on the DNS for their CAS Array 
name, then change the IP Address to point to a CAS array in the secondary site, 
prior to changing the RPCClientAccessServer name if they need to activate a 
secondary site.

Hi,

The databases are all on one mailbox server in an active passive setup and in 
my primary site they point to a cass array. In the passive site I can create an 
array like your article suggests but I am thinking the users will still need to 
reconfigure their outlook profiles to the other site's cass array?

Subject: RE: Dag Question regarding Cass.

If I have a Cass Server called primary and another Cass called Secondary in a 
secondary
location and I have 100 users in a third site with Outlook profiles pointing 
to primary and
want to point them to secondary, how would I go about it?

http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee332317.aspx

See 'Configure Your Mailbox Database'

Is it possible to have a non-associated name like Cass and just change the 
DNS, how would you do this?

The reason this has come up is that I need to switch my Primary and Secondary 
sites to the other way round.

Any advice would be much appreciated as usual.

Read up on CAS Arrays, you don't mention anything about how the databases are 
distributed
which makes it tough to answer...

Ok, I got fooled by the user.  The 2007 server she was on was
decommissioned but I still have all the old backups and they were brick
level Backup Exec backups.  Put that hard drive on a current Backup Exec
server and fired off the import/cataloging. It just finished up, I have
2 months of brick level backups.

There are only two contacts on the backups, both of which are in her
current mailbox. At least the mystery is solved and I feel a little
better knowing I did not nuke her stuff. I really dislike doing that.

Plugging away on my 2007 to 2010 upgrade. It is going very well
actually. But I have one odd issue. A pure OWA user that I migrated from
2007 to 2010. She claims she lost all her contacts. My first thought was
that it was autocomplete she lost so I asked her to show me how she used
to get to her contacts. She instantly hit her contacts icon and said
'look, there are only two there'.  So that is the odd part, two of her
old contacts are there but there are a bunch missing.

Any guesses where they went? I am a bit stunned. Is there any other way
she could have hooked contacts into OWA that I don't know about?

Subject: Block the ability to create groups

Does anyone know of an alternative to preventing users from creating groups in 
Ex2k10 ? The idea is that with the default config, users are able to create 
DL's  manage them unmonitored, and sometimes may even create names not 
necessarily approved by HR, for example 
i_hate_my_...@company.commailto:i_hate_my_...@company.com.

Currently I've simply removed teh ability in RBAC via Default Role Assignment 
from creating DL's, but this prevents Managers of DL's from modifying group 
membership as well. The question is does RBAC allow more granularity or can new 
groups be set up to notify a group of business overseers who can approve/deny 
new group creation?

Thanks,

Subject: Exchange Attachment Size Issue

Hi all, just an odd question. I have a client who sends out this 8.5MB pdf 
contract , they have been using it for years, recently the last couple of 
months its getting rejected as being larger than 10mb by many organizations.

I did a quick test, and I see in the logs that when the email is sent the 
transfer is over 11 million bytes . Doing some quick math 8.5MB * 1024 * 1024 = 
8912 , but Im seeing 11.4 , 11.3 on the smtp transfer.

As a test I sent it to gmail, and sent it back and it was basically the same 
11.4 million bytes. I could shrink the PDF size down as a possible option (they 
make about 30 of these per day) but was trying to figure out what would make an 
8.5MB email (no text , tried plain , rich, html) would come across as 11.4 
million (or 11 megs). My initial thought was that as people move to the cloud 
exchange and hosted apps there probably is 10 meg limits , but some of these 
are clients they do business with for years and is highly unlikely to impose 
these kind of restrictions (although I am checking).

Bottom line the client believes we did something in January to their Exchange 
2010 SP1 server that is causing this …

Any ideas appreciated …

I guess there are security reasons or something for having it this way but if 
you want to allow it to open do this
Works in In 2010 and probably 07-
Go to server config-Client Access-OWA tab in the bottom-Properties
On the Private and Public tabs (as needed) customize under Direct File access. 
In Always allow, add .html
I guess make sure it doesn't show up under the force save.

Folks,

Has anyone any idea why OWA and Outlook treat .html attachments differently? 
Outlook seems to allow these to be opened, but OWA forces you to save them. I 
know how to change this but has any one any idea why it is like this. What are 
the security implications of allowing html attachments to be opened directly?

Subject: Collecting Outlook profile information


Is there any tool (running at a single server and scan the PC remotely) I can 
use to create a report of every user's Outlook setting at their local PCs.

Our .pst files are everywhere and we want to find out where these files are 
located and who are accessing these pst files when they open their Outlook 2007.

We are running Exchange 2003 and Outlook2007. We are in the process of 
migrating to Exchange 2010 and .pst file is a big headache to us. What should 
we do about those .pst files? We don't know where those files are located and 
how the users are connecting to those files.

What is the best strategy to handle those pst files during the migration?

Thanks.

Re: Exchange 2010 database

2012-02-14 Thread PRamatowski
We go by surname with appropriate splits for DB sizing. - that spreads users 
pretty randomly for location, department and all that. Works well for us.

Subject: RE: Exchange 2010 database

My two cents… First, I think it depends on the organization!

I usually recommend, if most mailbox limits are going to be the same, going for 
a balanced/random distribution based on the mailbox profile and planned users 
per DB rather than another factor. And, if you have an entire department on one 
database, or senior staff – yes you can bring them online “first” in the event 
of a total loss of all database copies, but the opposite case is also true – 
you could end up in a situation with just your sales force or senior staff 
without email. If they are spread out, then at least you don’t lose them all 
and a part of the organization isn’t totally crippled. Also when it comes to 
sizing you are unlikely to have departments of identical size so you could end 
up with complicated sizing for LUNs that are hard to manage.

Of course not everyone wants a random distribution. Thinking of some customers 
over the last week I can give a couple of examples where that isn’t the case..

Customer 1 – Has convention already in place, distributing by surname. Same 
mailbox limits for everyone in the organization, so analysed the surnames of 
the users who’ll move onto these databases to determine the split of surnames 
per DB to tie up with the planned users per DB.

Customer 2 – Has different mailbox limits for different types of users, so 
mailbox database and log LUNs are sized to match these limits and user numbers, 
with balanced distribution across mailbox databases within each “tier”.

Finally, looking at larger environments (100,000+) and going through some of 
the Exchange Environment Reports people have emailed me via the blog, there is 
a general tendency towards a combination of location (eg large, distributed 
environments) and then spreading the mailboxes across DBs rather than 
dedicating DBs to department/roles.

they only work when their mailboxes are 2003 BE servers.
When their mailboxes are on 2010, we cannot get BIS access to work.
We have 10,000 other mailboxes migrated and have no problems with iOS, Android,

TMG support people say everything is setup fine.
Exchange support says Exchange is setup fine.

From the BB, we can access OWA in the BB browser fine, but BIS will not setup 
correctly.

+1 on Kemp in particular, I have been recommending them to my customers when 
faced with a similar decision.

Just a heads-up, pricing wise for a mid-size deployment (having driven past 
Mira many times I am guessing ~500 users?) you might find the physical Kemp 
LM-Exchange boxes cheaper than the virtual equivalent.

Pros/cons of NLB vs a load balancer were covered in a TechEd session a while 
back. A transcript of the relevant session is here: 
http://www.stevieg.org/2010/11/exchange-team-no-longer-recommend-windows-nlb-for-client-access-server-load-balancing/

If you want something to play with – Kemp do a trial, and for a Lab/Test/PoC

similar job: http://www.stevieg.org/e2010haproxy/

Is there any pro/con in fronting it with a pair of boxes running Windows NLB

From the documentation on the loadbalancer.org product it seems you have to 
make some changes to the RPC ports that the servers use, not that that is 
necessarily a problem.

I'm open to both options but would prefer not to take on another two servers - 
I'm just trying to understand what some of the gotcha's might be before diving

 All,

 Our UK office has an older BPS installation (4.1.4.3) with 6 users, and on
 Tuesday at 14:00 local time it just stopped working - BB users can't send or
 receive mail with their devices.

 The BB services are running on our file server, with the database running on
 a WinXP machine - SQL Express.

 The management interface states that it has an SRP connection.

 I'm seeing many of the following entries in the MAGT log:

 [30105] (01/26 20:13:52.069):{0xF1C} {us...@example.com} Message returned as
 FAILED - could not be delivered to device, Tag=305162, EntryId=8838

 I've run the server configuration app, and it all checks out - I get the
 expected responses from the tests I can run, but nothing is going through.

 I've done a couple of hours of interweb searching, with no joy.

 Anyone have a bone to throw me?

Subject: OTish: Blackberry Professional stops working

All,

Our UK office has an older BPS installation (4.1.4.3) with 6 users, and on 
Tuesday at 14:00 local time it just stopped working - BB users can't send or 
receive mail with their devices.

The BB services are running on our file server, with the database running on a 
WinXP machine - SQL Express.

The management interface states that it has an SRP connection.

I'm seeing many of the following entries in the MAGT log:

[30105] (01/26 20:13:52.069):{0xF1C} 
{us...@example.commailto:us...@example.com} Message returned as FAILED - 
could not be delivered to device, Tag=305162, EntryId=8838

I've run the server configuration app, and it all checks out - I get the 
expected responses from the tests I can run, but nothing is going through.

I've done a couple of hours of interweb searching, with no joy.

Anyone have a bone to throw me?

Kurt

What our shop supports:
Company devices - there's a short list, determined more by price than does the 
device play well
User devices- Can be *anything*

[1] Company purchased BB's all go on BES.
[2] Company purchased smartphones and iDevs can go on a GOOD server.
[3] Company or user purchased smartphones and iDevs can use EAS.
And, if anyone wants to use the browser on the above devices to access OWA, 
have at it g)

About the only thing we don't do/support is putting a user purchased BB on the 
BES.

Our only requirement for EAS is this :
Only devices that fully support ActiveSync are allowed

I don't even know what the above line means :|

of Outlook 2003, 2007, and 2010 clients.  We're seeing instances where 
sometimes people will try to delete an email from the inbox and it will just 
stay there.  If they try to delete it again, it will get an error that it can't 
delete the email.  Restarting seems to correct the problem, but sometimes it

Subject: # DAGs in secondary DC


Present configuration: Datacenter 1 (DC1)
2x MBX DAGs servers
2x CAS servers

I want to start working on replication of my EX2010 data to DC2 for DR. So, my 
first question is the number of MBX servers to configure at DC2.  My first 
reaction is to only put one MBX in DC2.  However all the documentation I am 
reading suggests that I am better off with at least two in DC2. Why? Is there a 
technical reason not to go with one? (split brain issues, etc). I can see the 
arguments (stated below). But, are there other systemic arguments not generally 
able to fit in these bullet points?  I have pretty much made the point to 
myself that I need to do two already by listing these out. Am I dumb to even be 
asking the question because the answer is so obvious?


Pros for one:
* Less disk space used
* Less licensing required
* Less replication traffic

Cons for one:
* in case of failover, only one available copy of the database?
* Potential corruption/loss of data because of only one live copy.

Pros for two+:
* Replication will continue for failover in case of DC failover. Better DR.
* Able to split the load in case of DC failover.

Cons for two+:
* More disk space used
* More replication traffic
* More licensing required.

Subject: Adding a second server and going to a DAG?

We currently have a single multi-role Exchange 2010 SP1 box running as a VM.

Early next year I’d like to add a second server to give us a two server DAG, 
and a hardware load balancer.

Given I already have a working production server, just how much impact on my 
users is this likely to cause?

We’re not a 24/7 shop so five or ten minutes here and there, or downtime for 
the DNS to switch to the HWLB isn’t a big deal, but is there any part of the 
process which screams “two hours of downtime to do this part”?

Thanks,

• After the upgrade, all calendar entries in his Exchange mailbox are

RE: NDR for resigned users to contact their managers.

Don't remember how it happened but for a bit our EmailAddressPolicy was set to 
where a new mailbox received and address for every domain- I know for a fact 
it'll do 173 SMTP addresses with no problem.  Fortunately we caught and fixed 
it after 2 mailboxes:)

Re: NDR for resigned users to contact their managers.

2011-11-23 Thread PRamatowski
+1 more. Part of the procedure for an ex employees assets is to have that 
department tell us where to assign the SMTP address. In addition to avoiding 
the bad things that have been mentioned, an outside email will get a proper 
response. If message is spam it gets ignored, if message is real a real person 
answers without the sender having to do anything else.

Also, it cleans up after itself- Down the road, whoever has the extra address 
decides when its no longer needed and asks for removal:)

+1 this is what we do generally. In this vein we also implement role
addresses (think sa...@example.com) and assign various users to receive
mail there; this is the best common practice to get around the they're
gone type issues.

In general, having an auto-responder of any kind (including OOO
notifications sent to the Internet) is asking for trouble down the road at
best. Anyone doing it should think carefully about the failure modes
involved, considering joe-jobs and other nonsense that goes on. The best
auto-responders will only have a small subset of the problems; the worst
ones can result in blacklisting when they unintentionally spew forth. IMO,
the perceived need for an auto-responder usually means the company
policies need adjustment.

We did windows nlb for a while but moved to Kemp in June.
2 sites, each has:
3 virtual CAS
2hub/MBX servers
3 copy dag, each DB has 2 copies in site, one across site.
~7K mailboxes, 1400 Blackberries, a few hundred EAS devices.

From my post on this back in June
WNLB at first-
We went WNLB for a couple of reasons- $ and it was supported happily  for our 
size/needs.  Pretty sure it still is but MS doesn't seem to like it nearly as 
much as they used to-I'd guess based on real world experience?  Today,  those 
size/needs would steer towards HLB.

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.

Kemp, once we got some extra $
Have two 2200 Loadmasters in each site.

Stuff I've done resulting in 0 client complaints-
Pulled power on the active Kemp
Rebooted a CAS
Powered down CAS

new stuff to report since June-

Patching, rebooting, doing anything to a CAS is pretty much a non-event as far 
as users go.
[1] Disable a CAS on the Kemp, all connections automatically go to the “up” 
servers.
[2] Do what you need to do, enable on the Kemp.
[3] Watch that it behaves, lather rinse repeat..
The few times we had to talk to Kemp while configuring and setting up the 
devices they were very quick to respond and follow up.  Since then the boxes 
have been 100%. Nothing but nice things to say about them…

I’m starting to think and plan for adding a second Exchange 2010 server and

I know of Kemp, but I’m not familiar with any other vendor when it comes to 
load balancers.  Obviously I can whack it into Google (and have) but on the 
face of it they all do what I currently want.

Any personal recommendations (or nightmares) would be great.

A virtual load balancer also sounds like an option as we have a vSphere cluster 
that should be able to run a pair of appliances in HA.

IPV6 is NOT disabled.

This is for an Exchange 2010 CAS/HT server.

RE: Counting folders in mailbox

2011-11-01 Thread PRamatowski
Oliver, 

Do you mean these, ID 9646?

 ...Mapi session 3b58a9a9-f5f8-4be1-8365-7fd4e14484ca exceeded the maximum 
of 500 objects of type objtFolder 

We've also seen these when the user is opening other mailboxes in their 
profile, things like that.  Have a couple generic mailboxes in particular where 
they seemingly have a folder for every blasted message, there are over 2000 
folders. They have a massive inbox, and *copy* a single message to several 
different folders.  The users opening those mailboxes have the obvious 
performance  issues with Outlook but there hasn't been any apparent performance 
hits on the server... 

With our current message retention policy we don't keep anything older than 90 
days so most of them are empty Finally got one of the owners of that mailbox to 
believe me, he did a massive cleanup and is much happier now. 


I know you've isolated the user, just sharing a handy command to match a GUID 
to a mailbox.

get-mailbox -ResultSize unlimited | where {$_.ExchangeGuid -eq  GUID}

Is it a problem? No doesn't appear to be. It appears to be arbitrary limit that 
Exchange puts on things. I can't see any google links for a reason why it

Have a user recently upgraded to OL2010 and win7 against a exchange 2007 server

RE: How do I exclude the calendar from mailbox quotas

2011-10-12 Thread PRamatowski
Been playing around with this …


get-mailbox -resultsize unlimited | Get-MailboxFolderStatistics -folderscope 
calendar | Sort-Object FolderSize -Descending | select 
Identity,@{name='TotalItemSize(MB)';expression={$_.FolderSize.ToMB()}},ItemsInFolder
 | export-csv c:\transfer\calendar_stats.csv

Identity returns this info for all mailboxes.
#TYPE Selected.Microsoft.Exchange.Management.Tasks.MailboxFolderConfiguration

Identity

Changing Identity to Name it returns  the Calendar folder (and subfolders) 
which is ok for a single user but pretty useless for listing multiple mailboxes…


get-mailbox alias | Get-MailboxFolderStatistics -folderscope calendar | 
Sort-Object Folder
Size -Descending | select 
Name,@{name='TotalItemSize(MB)';expression={$_.FolderSize.ToMB()}},ItemsInFolder

I would be reviewing what the heck they are using the calendars FOR.

While Outlook provides you the capability of dropping documents and other 
attachments into calendar items, that’s almost always a mistake. That 
information should be kept in a case management system.

Your general calendar entry is only a few KB in size (depending on the size of 
the invitee list). It takes a LOT of calendar entries to take up even a few MB 
of entries.

Subject: The case of the deleted email


Exchange 2007

I have a pretty skilled user that has two workstations set up in two different 
buildings. One machine has Outlook 2003, one has Outlook 2010. Both are in 
cached mode.

Yesterday, she reported that about half of the emails in her inbox (roughly 50) 
had disappeared. I found them in Deleted Item Retention. She was able to 
recover them using Recover Deleted Items. Between you and me, I wrote it off 
to user error.

Today, however, she reports the same thing is happening. Some emails are 
being deleted, skipping Deleted Items and going straight to the Recover 
Deleted Items. She swears she isn't doing it and I verified that she doesn't 
have any rules configured to delete.

Ideas???

Steve

RE: Load Balancers?

2011-10-03 Thread PRamatowski
We did windows nlb for a while but moved to Kemp in June.
2 sites, each has:
3 virtual CAS
2hub/MBX servers
3 copy dag, each DB has 2 copies in site, one across site.
~7K mailboxes, 1400 Blackberries, a few hundred EAS devices.

From my post on this back in June
WNLB at first-
We went WNLB for a couple of reasons- $ and it was supported happily  for our 
size/needs.  Pretty sure it still is but MS doesn't seem to like it nearly as 
much as they used to-I'd guess based on real world experience?  Today,  those 
size/needs would steer towards HLB.

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.

Kemp, once we got some extra $
Have two 2200 Loadmasters in each site.

Stuff I've done resulting in 0 client complaints-
Pulled power on the active Kemp
Rebooted a CAS
Powered down CAS

new stuff to report since June-

Patching, rebooting, doing anything to a CAS is pretty much a non-event as far 
as users go.
[1] Disable a CAS on the Kemp, all connections automatically go to the up 
servers.
[2] Do what you need to do, enable on the Kemp.
[3] Watch that it behaves, lather rinse repeat..
The few times we had to talk to Kemp while configuring and setting up the 
devices they were very quick to respond and follow up.  Since then the boxes 
have been 100%. Nothing but nice things to say about them...

I'm starting to think and plan for adding a second Exchange 2010 server and 
setting up a DAG and CAS array.

I know of Kemp, but I'm not familiar with any other vendor when it comes to 
load balancers.  Obviously I can whack it into Google (and have) but on the 
face of it they all do what I currently want.

Any personal recommendations (or nightmares) would be great.

A virtual load balancer also sounds like an option as we have a vSphere cluster 
that should be able to run a pair of appliances in HA.

The technical limits are likely to be on the e2k3 server itself.

Remember, Exchange 2003 is a 32-bit application and is limited to 4GB RAM and 
the store consumes most of the RAM on that server.

You can have a look at the Technical Reference Guide for the transport layout 
for the WHY, but you'll see that any message going through an Exchange 2003 
server requires about 2.5 times the message size in RAM and about 4 times the 
size on disk (some temporary, some in the System Attendant mailbox).

The effective limit is going to be different on just about every server. There 
is no theoretical limit that I am aware of. But I've seen 150 MB messages crash 
Exchange 2003 servers because Exchange 2003 does not deal very well with 
running out of memory.

These things have changed dramatically by Exchange 2010. You could use email 
for VLFs in Exchange 2010, but I would still say that email is the wrong way to 
do it.
