Decommissioning Exchange 2010

$
0
0

Hi Experts!

Our client is already switched to exchange 2016 and they want now to decommission the old one which is exchange 2010 version. Now, I have some few question to discussed with the client before doing decom in exchange 2010. Can you also give us the procedure in decommissioning exchange 2010 as well. 

1. What are the best practices and step by step procedure in decommissioning exchange 2010 ? 

2. What are the prerequisites and requirements before initiating decom?

3. When you say, decommissioning exchange 2010 is it the whole exchange (database, Mailbox, Dag, all configuration etc.?)

4. Does it affect the exchange the current exchange 2016 ,Policy, AD security groups, Authentication) ? 

5. Does it affect also the IP configuration on AD integration ? 

6. How we can prevent data loss during decommission ? 

7. Are you recommending to create send received connectors on the exchange to make it sure that no affect?

8. Check the arbitration to validate if system files are properly transferred.

9. Off/shutdown exchange 2010 then observe at least 1week to determine if they have some issue encounter.

Are you recommending the below procedure in decommissioning exchange 2010 ? Please advise ... 

Manual Method of Exchange Server Decommission

Therefore, it is better to go for manual process of Exchange Server Decommission in order to continue working with the newer version smoothly. Here’s a quick look through the steps that will reverse all the changes occurred:

  1. Locate the Primary Domain Controller
  2. Open ADSIEDIT
  3. Right-click the ADSIEdit and proceed with Connect to
  4. Further to Connect to, go for the “Default Naming Context” option
  5. You will find the following objects
    DC=Domain,DC=Com -> OU=Microsoft Exchange Security Groups
    DC=Domain,DC=Com -> CN=Microsoft Exchange System Objects
  6. Simply delete these objects
  7. Again, Right-click the ADSIEdit and navigate to Connect to
  8. Go to the “Configuration” through Connect to
  9. You will again find some objects to delete
    CN=Configuration,DC=Domain,DC=Com -> CN=Services -> CN=Microsoft Exchange
    CN=Configuration,DC=Domain,DC=Com -> CN=Services -> CN=Microsoft Exchange Autodiscover
  10. Delete these as well
  11. Then, force the replication of Active directory
  12. And, your Exchange Server 2010 manual uninstallation will be completed

Your account has been disabled - user is enabled

I have a mailbox that was disconnected, disabled and expired. I enabled it, reconnected the original mailbox and removed the expiration. I can login to a workstation with the account. However, when I try to connect to OWA I get:

Your account has been disabled.
Request
Url: https://OWAServer:443/owa/
User: Jones, Jo
EX Address: /o=company/ou=admingroup/cn=recipients/cn=ljones
SMTP Address: Jjones@company.com
OWA version: 14.3.146.0

Exception
Exception type: Microsoft.Exchange.Data.Storage.AccountDisabledException
Exception message: Cannot open mailbox /o=ulta3cosmetics&salon/ou=ulta3/cn=recipients/cn=ljones.

As I stated, the account is enabled and I can login to the workstation with no issue. I can't get OWA to work. I waited a day, in case it was a replication issue. I see no AD issues, no replication issues, no other users are having issues.

Any ideas would be helpful. Exchange 2010, SP3, RU1.

Remove Stale/Old Active Sync Devices from All Mailboxes

$

I have a script that goes out and checks each mailbox and gets the DeviceType, DevicePolicyApplied, LastSuccessSync, DeviceUserAgent, and the User for each mailbox on Exchange 2010 that has an Active Sync device.  You can find it here:  http://blog.powershell.no/2010/09/26/getting-an-overview-of-all-activesync-devices-in-the-exchange-organization

Looking through that CSV file results, I can see A LOT of cleanup that needs to be done. I know users can manage their own devices through Outlook Web, but I can clearly see that is not happening. Some are even getting close to the 10 device limit.

Is there a way, other than going to each mailbox in the management console, to remove stale/old active sync device partnerships that haven't sync'd in a given period of time. 6 months? a year?

I would like to get an accurateread out of the types of devices people are using, but with so many old devices out there, making it hard to do so.

Also, wondering if it's good practice to clean up stale active sync device partnerships. Would be nice if Exchange had a built in automatic way to handle these stale devices.

Difference with AD security groups and mail enabled security groups

$

0

I'm trying to figure out the difference between "mail enabled security group" and AD "security group", when I'm making a group with users for adding Full Access and Send AS permissions on a shared mailbox .

Since giving fullaccess with a "AD Security group" won't automap the mailbox in outlook, I read that changing it to a "mail enabled security group" would make automap work, so I did this in exchange managment shell:

Enable-DistributionGroup -Identity "name"

and for permission I used:

"Add-MailboxPermission -Identity "Mailbox Name" -User "Group name" -AccessRights FullAccess -InheritanceType All -AutoMapping $true "

Does this work for the mailbox to be automapped in the users outlook?
I'm also a bit confused about this "mail enabled security group", it shows up in the EMC under groups (the security groups we normally use are only in AD) and it has it's own e-mail addressees? What is actually the function of a mail enabled security group, since it gets it's own mail address and how will this show up for the users that are members?

Need to re-do Outlook profiles everytime Exchange Server is rebooted

$

Hello,

I have an Exchange Server 2010 SP3 that had hardware failure a month ago. We were able to bring back from the backup and get it operational again. We have about 250 Outlook 2016 computers.

Ever since we were able to restore the server, everytime we reboot, the Outlook profiles give out the following error:

Outlook cannot log on. Verify you are connected to the network and are using the proper server and mailbox name. Microsoft Exchange Information service in your profile is missing the required information. Modify your profile to ensure that you are using the correct Microsoft Exchange information service.

Then I delete the current profile, create a new one, and the users are able to log in to Outlook.

No issues on OWA or mobile.

I have weeded out all of the Event Viewer errors, and corrected them. But nothing seems to fix this.

Has anyone faced this before?

Hi

 

I noticed that the archive mailbox can only be accessed when connected to MS Exchange. I would like my users to make use of this new feature, but I cannot justify it if the archive isn't available offline.

am I doing something wrong or isn't it possible?

Hi All

Hoping you can help. We are looking to remove our 2 2010 exchange servers from the DAG then deleting the DAG.

We are pretty comfortable with the process we need to follow but have a question that hopefully someone can answer.

During the process of removing the servers from the DAG then deleting the actual Dag will mailflow get affected?

Cheers

Exchange 2010 sp3 Rollup 25 breaks "User to change Password at next logon" for OWA

$

Hi there,

Sorry for putting this in the 2016 forum but the 2010 forum seems to have vanished now.  We are in the process of migrating to 2016.

Just wondering if anyone else has noticed that the latest exchange 2010 sp3 rollup (25) seems to have broken functionality related to forcing users to change their password at next logon via outlook web access.

We use this quite extensively and since the latest rollup, it no longer works.  Instead, we simply receive the message that the username or password is incorrect or it just allows us to log in without forcing the reset.

This behavior doesn't exist when we check it against a 2016 environment when I go to one of the 2016 hosts (we are migrating).

This was working fine just before the patch.  No settings have changed (that we have made).

How do you grant full mailbox permissions to someone in a different domain in Exchange 2010?

Hello everyone. We are in the process of migrating mailboxes from a Windows AD 2000/Exchange 2003 (Source) in a different forest to a Windows AD 2008/Exchange 2010 forest (Target). There is a 2 way trust between the 2 domains.  What is the proper way to grant users in the source domain full mailbox permissions to mailboxes in the target domain. If I go 2 EMC , & try and use the "Manage Full Access Permission", I do not see the users in the source domain.

Thanks.
