Event ID 104

A few months ago I opened a ticket with Microsoft support regarding a spam issue. One of the steps they had me perform was create a new mailbox database and migrate my mailbox to the new database. I finally got around to moving my mailbox back to the original database and when I dismount the test database the following message appears in application event log every five minutes. If I mount the database the error stops. I've tried the obvious, there is sufficient disk space. not sure what I'm doing wrong. I have Exchange 2010 SP2 on Windows 2008 R2 SP1.

Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

Resource tabs missing in exchange management console 2010 for room mailbox.

I am logged in as domain admin, and want to change resources for a room mailbox to allow conflicts, but there are no resource tabs in the permissions with the exception of "Resource Information". I verified that the permissions are correct, and that I have full access to the room. I have tried this in power shell:

I also have this issue, but when I try to go to the resource tabs in the exchange management console, they are all missing. I tried this:

"http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/exchange/en-US/5909104b-f818-47ac-970f-239c72d62ff8/room-mailbox-properties-missing-tabs?forum=exchangesvradminlegacy"

set-mailbox room mailbox -applymandatoryproperties

but I get this:

WARNING: The command completed successfully but no settings of mailbox have been modified.

I can't find anything else online that even talks about the tabs not being available other than permissions, but I have already verified that the domain admin has permissions, please assist.

Thanks,

Marc.

Using ADFS with Outlook Anywhere, Activesync

Hello,

I know that this isn't supported by default however I'm scouring the interweb looking for information as to how to use ADFS to authenticate Outlook Anywhere, Activesync, and Lync 2010. Even if this means hiring an integration firm, I'd like to know what to ask them to do or what the best approach to be. If there's a 3rd party solution I'd also be open to that! Thanks for any info!

Installing a single Go Daddy Certificate on two exchange 2010 servers

$

I have two Exchange 2010 servers. I want to set up a DAG group so if one email server goes down the other will pick up in its spot. I purchased a certificate from Go Daddy. The certificate includes 5 names or domains which includes the fully qualified domain name for both my exchange servers Server1 and Server2. I generated the request from Server1 and have completed the request and assigned all the services I wanted to use with this certificate. I have imported the certificate into the local CA console as well on both Server1 and Server2. I tried to import the same Go Daddy certificate on Server2 but it tells me the Thumb print is all ready in uses on the network. I am aware that Server1 is using this certificate. So how do I get a certificate I can import from this same Go Daddy certificate?  

Diskpart.ps1

I'm having an issue trying to use the "DiskPart.ps1" script generated from the "Exchange 2010 Server Role Requirements Calculator" spread sheet.

I've saved the "DiskPart.ps1" on the server in my lab and created a "Server.csv" file and saved it to "C:\windows\System 32\" the .csv looks like:

"ServerName,"StartDrive","DriveCount","Path"
"Server 1","2","5","C:\ExchangeData\DB1, C:\ExchangeData\DB2, C:\ExchangeData\DB3, C:\ExchangeData\DB4, C:\ExchangeData\DB5"

Obviously when I take the server into production environment the mount point will not be on the C drive.

I've attached the 5 disks and left offline is disk manager, but when I run the script it does nothing as far as I can see?!?

I've also set the "ExecutionPolicy" to "Unrestricted" in case this is the issue, but with the same result.

I would normally just do this work myself in diskpart, but the deployment I'm working on has 5 database server with each server needed 22 LUN's formatting\mounting etc. etc.

Any advice would be appreciated, many thanks in advance.

Now my question is can be restore public folder on another exchange server which is exist on same DAG environment. Or I need to build isolated exchange server to restore the public folder.

Move existing Exchange 2010 server to new hardware and reinstalling Exchange 2010

$
0
0

Hi so as the title states I need to Install Exchange 2010 on a brand new 2008R2 Server and transfer everything from the old Exchange Server.

Couple things though.

  • Existing 2008R2 Server w/ Exchange 2010 is also a Domain Controller.
  • Exchange needs to be uninstalled completely once Exchange is setup and going on new hardware.
  • Existing 2008R2 Server needs to stay up and stay a domain controller.

Questions are how do I go about this step by step?

Am I going to have problems uninstalling Exchange from the Domain Controller?  Will this mess up anything with the Schema?

Any how to guides would be great.  New Server will of course have a different name than existing Domain Controller server.

Any questions let me know.

Thanks!

WS-Management services does not support the request - SBS 2011 Exchange 2010 SP2

Hi,

I'm getting the above message and can't seem to resolve the problem.

Here's what I have done so far:

Recreated PowerShell virtual directory

Checked Path, and System environment variable for Exchange path

Run EMTShooter a couple of times to get this error message and verified the message is the same whether remote or on the server itself.

What does look strange, is the web.config within the PowerShell folder is practically empty, it just references kerauth.

Any ideas what I can try next and what user permissions should be on the PowerShell folder?

Thanks

Users receive Outlook trying to retrieve data from server pop up messages

Hi Forum,

I have been baging my head on this one.

We have a small network around 10 users or so and we are trying to deploy Excahnge 2010 with outlook 2010.

Everythign was going fine however recently 1 user how received alot of alerts messages mainly from network devices started to receive  Outlook trying to retrieve data from server. this user mailbox is aroung 11 tousand messages. whenever i try to browse through its inbox the outlook hangs and I need to kill the process to close it.

Things I have done so far:

  1. Change from cache mode to non-cache mode.
  2. Run Wireshark on the network to detect traffic patterns.
  3. Ran perfmon on the Excahnge server to detect Disk latency (there were some peaks)
  4. Disable the antivirus may be causing bottle necks.

Additional info, the Excahgne server 2010 was re-installed. (was removed cleany and reinstalled on the same server without re-installing the OS)

We also have GFI mail essentails running on the Excahnge server.

I also notices the connection status of the Outlook client list as Async.

Any suggestion or ideas would be great.

I would really appreciate some inspiration.

if the mailbox is enabled the single item recovery, then the messages would move from deletion folder to the purges folder After running the following script,

Search-Mailbox dave -searchdumpsteronly-deletecontent

so my question is how to delete the messages in the purges folder with some script or retention policy?

Problems with EWS and CAS to CAS proxy

$

I'm setting up a new exchange site with a new cas, mailbox, hub transport server and running into some issues. During the migration we're going to do a CAS to CAS proxy between two AD sites. I've moved a test mailbox and running into some issues with testing. Everything seems to work from a connection setup, I can use activesync, outlook anywhere, OWA. If I run all the tests from exrca.com it works except for testing exchange web services. I've set the externalurl on EWS to null and then the internalURL is just using the server name /EWS/exchange.asmx on the new server. When I run this test I'm getting this error below. Yet If I just try to browse to that site on the new server from the internet facing CAS server it works just fine.

custom Distribution Group management role (manager excpeiton)

$
0
0

My organization is medium size with multiple support groups (15+) that each support a subset of users (350+). I want to create a management role that is scoped so each support group can manage the distribution groups in their respective OU space. By manage I mean edit the group membership. I realize I can achieve this with AD permissions but I’d like to achieve this in a way that leverages RBAC so the support groups can use OWA. I also want to leverage RBAC\OWA because not all my support groups are technical, some are office admins. Anyways, below is what I’ve tried in my lab scoped to one of my support groups.

Using the cmdlets below I’ve created a custom management scope, role and group. However, this does not work. While it lets my sales support group view and edit some random attributes on the group, it fails when they try to edit the group membership. In other words, they can logon to OWA, click options\see all options\manage your organization\distribution groups\open the group\edit description etc. but when they select “Add…” under membership then select the user and hit ok\save they get the error “you don’t have sufficient permissions. this operation can only be performed by a manger of the group”.

New-ManagementScope -Name “Sales Support DG MScope” -RecipientRestrictionFilter {RecipientType -eq "MailUniversalSecurityGroup"} -RecipientRoot “lab.com/sales”

New-ManagementRole -name “Sales Support DG MRole” -Parent "Distribution Groups"

New-RoleGroup -name “Sales “Sales Support DG MGroup” -Roles "Sales Support DG MRole" -CustomRecipientWriteScope "Sales Support DG MScope"


When I do as the error asks (i.e. add my support user as a manager of the group via the EMC), then my support user is able to edit the group's membership in OWA. The problem with this solution is that it would require me to add my support users to my role group “Sales Support DG MGroup” AND as a manager of the DG and every DG that is created down the line. Not ideal. Any ideas, some RBAC magic I’m missing?

Below confirms by scope.

Get-Group -OrganizationalUnit “lab.com/sales” | ?{$_.RecipientType -eq "MailUniversalSecurityGroup"}

Name                          DisplayName                   SamAccountName                GroupType

----                          -----------                   --------------                ---------

distro1                       distro1                       distro1                       Universal, SecurityEnabled

distro2                       distro2                       distro2                       Universal, SecurityEnabled

distro3                       distro3                       distro3                       Universal, SecurityEnabled

On a side note, I realize by sourcing my management role off of distribution groups gives me more cmdlets\access than my support group needs (see below). I’m first just trying to get it to work :).

Can you have multiple databases on the same LUN in Exchange 2010?

I'm sure you can but is it possible with exchange 2010 to have multiple databases on the same LUN.  We currently have 8 DB's all writing to their own DB drive and separate log drive so 16 drives in total.  I need to spin a new DB up this week and wanted to double check this is possible.  I've looked online and cant find anything that I've seen before that says this is possible.

Thanks.

Creating a minimum permissions Exchange 2010 Admin Role to "Allow" quarantined mobile devices

$
0
0

My organization blocks all ActiveSync devices by default, sending them to quarantine (in the ECP ... Phone & Device ... Quarantined Devices). This is a pre-existing security design intended to restrict ActiveSync connectivity to unknown devices, and thereby leaving only corporate-owned or known (to IT) BYOD devices. Once a device connects to A.S. for the first time, and is then quarantined, Exchange Admins here will manually "Allow" (to remove from quarantine) on these devices as the Helpdesk requests them.

To save some time, let me note that I recognize that we could pre-identify devices, and change our model somewhat as far as what get's quarantined.

For now, my question pertaining to our current model is this:

I want to manually create a new admin role for our Helpdesk staff, that allows them access only to logon to the ECP, navigate to the quarantine devices, and "Allow" the newly-quarantined devices. Can anyone provide me with the correct shell to create this restricted role?

(Alternatively) I would be ok with a role that allows the "Allow" but does not grant ECP access. This would at least let me create an EMS .PS1 that could be executed by one of the Helpdesk staff with the new role assigned to them (i.e. UNBLOCK-DEVICE -DEVICEUSER "John Doe"). Something these users can not do now either, as they lack Exchange admin credentials.
