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 I

Re: Exchange 2010\OA config pipedream

That should work. Devil is in the details though. I’d think the sysadmins would need to make an internal DNS change, in event of private circuit issues, to point the ‘external hostname', which, while the MPLS link is up is actually an INTERNAL hostname (thus forcing transit of the private circuit

It's not just OpsMgr. Anything you have running that is "using" Exchange, it will abort. Mine did it due to not only the BE remote service running, then it balked at the monad process running as well. Jay Dale I.T. Manager, 3GiG Mobile: 713.299.2541 Email: jay.d...@3-gig.com

MS suggests that the value for the PhysicalDisk, Avg. etc etc should be 1 to 1.5 times the number of spindles in your array, so your numbers may not be so bad depending on how many disks involved, the point being this problem may not be related to disk I/O. what about the PhysicalDisk %Disk time

So you were noticing a performance issue before you changed the 10 clients to cached mode? Do you have any way to review changes to your environment that would've affected Exchange performance (SAN, Network, VMWare changes, etc.)? If you've targeted a client using Exmon that appears to be overly a
