Re: Exchange 2010 using DAG Backup?
Working on that as we speak Thx On Tue, Jun 14, 2011 at 3:47 PM, Jonathan Link jonathan.l...@gmail.comwrote: Based on my understanding of Exchange 2010, your environment is screaming for JBOD boxes, and I'd run a DAG with a lagged copy at one of your sites. I think you could realize some extensive storage savings on your SAN by moving to a JBOD or two. This is a problem you need to work through. My first plan for migrating to Exchange 2010 involved budgeting for a class, because of the big difference. I really think you could benefit from the class.

This primarily has to do with our disks which are two separate hardware RAIDs. One RAID is broken up into two logical drives - C: for system files and F: for Exchange transaction logs. The other RAID is one logical drive D: which houses all of our Exchange databases. Our last complete backup completed yesterday at around 7:00am and since then we have noticed three things occurring: 1. The server is generating an inordinately high amount of transaction logs for our organization at almost 40GB - a normal day for us can produce ~4GB. 2. The number of disk writes is also abnormally high. Using perfmon I've observed the writes/sec at an average of over 1,000 and highs of over 5,500. 3. Event ID 602 appeared in our event viewer. This event basically tells us to perform an offline defragmentation of the databases. We have four mailbox stores that range in size (107GB, 57GB, 12GB, and 10GB). I've scheduled a maintenance window for this weekend to perform the offline defrag as recommended by the event error. The only thing that we've done recently is that a couple of weeks ago we deleted a number of mailboxes (~50) as part of a measure to stay under our GFI MailArchiver license count. None of the mailboxes were particularly large. I wanted to find out if anyone else had experienced anything like this before or if anyone had run into Event ID 602 before. Any help, even to point me in the right direction would be much appreciated. Many thanks in advance.

Do ensure that you are comparing like with like, and also consider that the UK mobile phone market is a lot more advanced than the USA one, so some of the reasoning is different. The Blackberry pricing structure changed considerably earlier this year, which makes anything you read that pre-dates 2010 pretty much out of date. Until that point, to use the full Blackberry feature set you needed BES (or BPS) and the BES option on the devices. That made the Blackberry devices very expensive to run. Here in the UK, you were looking at £35/month plus call charges etc. My Blackberry cost me more to run than my phone used for voice. However, I never once paid for BES. If there were more than 10 devices I told the service provider that I wanted BES free, and if they didn’t hand it over, I would talk to someone else. The profit on BES data is so high, that they hand it over. However now, that has all changed. You can now run a Blackberry against BES Express on the BIS plan. BES Express is free for as many devices as you want. Therefore you can run a Blackberry, with all of the features that the end user wants on the cheaper BIS plans. My Blackberry now costs me less than £15/month to run. Of course if you want the full BES functionality, that means you need a full BES (which you rarely get free unless you have a large number of handsets or are bringing in a lot of business) and you must have the full BES data option on the devices. That makes the cost still pretty high. This PDF from RIM outlines the differences between the options available to you. http://na.blackberry.com/eng/services/business/server/express/ComparisonChart_NA_021610_v3.pdf As for other choices, you will not get full management without paying for additional software. For the iPhone, you would have to look at third party. For Windows Mobile, you would be looking at SCCM or whatever it is called now, or third party. Everyone is still playing catch up with Blackberry for the Enterprise management. Good Technologies (http://www.good.com/) is about the closest you will get to Blackberry and has cross-platform support if you need that. However if you can standardise on the device and don’t allow non-company devices to be used, you will find it easier to support and more cost effective.

Re: Exchange 2003 Expansion Server for DL's
thx very much On Tue, Sep 7, 2010 at 12:14 PM, Michael B. Smith mich...@smithcons.comwrote: When Exchange is asked to deliver to a distribution group, Exchange has to expand the members of the group – that is, find the contacts and mail-enabled users and mailbox-enabled users that receive the message. Historically, Exchange allowed you to have distribution groups that were domain local, and global – as well as universal. The expanded contents of a domain local distribution group, in a multi-domain forest, are dependent on what Exchange server expands them and which domain controllers it is using. Therefore, you can define which server a particular distribution group is going to use. Beginning in Exchange 2007, all new distribution group are created as universal so that this isn’t required. However, for various reasons you may have legacy non-universal groups, or you may have certain HUGE distribution groups that you want to be expanded on particular servers. Specifying the expansion server allows you to continue doing that. Using an expansion server in a single-domain forest is pretty much a waste of time, IMO. Regards, Michael B.

OWA and OMA Problems in 2 New Servers
Just stood up 2 new servers in a new data center. Objective is to move mailboxes from present 2 servers in old data center to the new servers in the new data center. New servers up and tested well (or so we thought). MAPI and RPC over HTTPS work well. No problems. After a reboot, I can access my mail through OWA and OMA. Minutes later, these 2 are not available??? Not even locally on the Exchange server. No errors in the IIS logs or the Exchange server system, security, or application logs. Anyone have any ideas? We're stumped?? Thx
Re: OWA and OMA Problems in 2 New Servers
We tried restarting the box and it went down instead. Nothing in the logs to indicate what went wrong there. We do have some firewall issues that we expect to fix tomorrow morning. What perplexes me is that it worked fine right after the reboot, then all of a sudden, it didn't work.

I see that the connection is refused by the host from the exchange manager on this connector. If we cut down the recipient list to let's say 50, then the email get delivered right away. Now, they say that this is not there issue because the delay is from our side. I checked the recipients number and the limit is 5000 from our server. How can I tell if this is from our end or theirs? Since these emails were time sensitive, we deleted the emails that waiting for retry from the queue and sent few emails with smaller recipients numbers. -- smsadm

Max Number of Mailboxes on Exchange 2003

Re: Max Number of Mailboxes on Exchange 2003
Thx for the reply. We have all NA and SA users on one server, and EMEA and AP users on the other. Sounds like this setup, which works great for maintenance, is not what you advocate. If we split users across boxes, concurrency would be down, possibly upping our number of concurrent users, correct? Thx again On Tue, Apr 27, 2010 at 10:05 AM, Michael B. Smith mich...@smithcons.comwrote: That question doesn’t mean anything until you start to consider usage profiles and concurrency. I can have 50,000 mailboxes on an Exchange 2003 server – if I only have 10 active at a time. I would consider 4,500 to be over a smart number for Exchange 2003 if all are concurrent.

Re: Exchange 2003 - Recommended # of Mailboxes per Server
We have 9000+ mailboxes on 2 backend servers, fronted by 2 FE servers. Storage is EMC Celerra, iSCSI (soon to be fiberchannel). No performance problems whatsoever! On Wed, Mar 31, 2010 at 9:41 PM, Sean Martin seanmarti...@gmail.com wrote: If/when I need additional hardware to boost performance, I'll have no problem getting it. This statement came from a manager of a non-technical department who believes he can do a better job than all of our existing Analysts. I'm sure it sounds like I'm taking it a bit personally, and I may be, but this is just a case where I know our current environment is over-sized, and I've got the performance metrics to prove it. This is an Exchange 2003 Enterprise SP2 environment, 2003 AD. Each server is a PowerEdge M710, 6GB RAM (limited via boot.ini due to 32-bit), 4 local 15k sas drives (RAID 1 OS, RAID 1 page file/temp directories). QLogic 2572 HBAs connected to Brocade 5300 Fiber switches (4gbps) to an EMC CX700. Logs are stored on a 4 disk (15k FC) RAID 10, Stores are on a 14 disk (15k FC) RAID 10, SMTP, message tracking, mta directories are on a RAID 1 (15k FC). A third front-end server provides ActiveSync. Disk I/O has always been our biggest battle and based on our user I/O, the above configuration has yielded very good results. Although we do have about 2000 mailboxes, only 1200-1300 of those are ever accessed concurrently, so with that we're barey above this 500 mailbox limitation he came up with. I guess a lot of this stems from this particular manager having a reputation of trying make others look bad in these high-profile meetings. My boss(es) are taking this more personally than I am. Anyway, thanks for the information thus far. I'm confident that if it comes down to it, I can prove our environment does not warrant any wasted hardware expenses. - Sean On Wed, Mar 31, 2010 at 4:54 PM, greg.swe...@actsconsulting.net wrote: Hmm.. sounds like he is going to give you some money to boost up the number of servers you need….Say thank you for your contribution and if and when we run into performance issues we will use this money to purchase additional servers..

Now, my boss and VP know this is BS, but now I'm tasked with providing literature that disproves that. The problem is, I don't know of any literature that will fit the bill because I've never seen any recommendations on the number of user/mailboxes to host per server. I'm well aware it depends on hardware, storage, mailbox limits, user IO, etc. I've got all of the performance metrics in the world to prove there are no problems at the Exchange server level, and we're hosting approximately 2000 mailboxes split across two mailbox servers. Do any of you know of any official documentation that helps explain this scenario? I'm waiting on this manager to provide me a copy of the documentation he supposedly read that dictates this 500 user limit. Thanks in advance. - Sean -- smsadm
