Exchange 2013: Correcting mailbox delegation - Full Access

$
0
0

Not sure how to correct this issue.  I have an Admin that setup the Exchange 2013.  The admins account is now added to every new account (Resources, shared mailboxes etc.)  I know how to remove the auto mapping so it does not show in the admin OWA and outlook. 

I would like to just correct the setting so the account is not automatically added. (Tester is not the real name of the account.)

Now customer wanted to build new exchange 2013 in x.com

Migrate exchange 2010 from Y.com to exchange 2013 in x.com, and will migrate exchange 2010 in x.com to exchange 2013 in x.com later phase

y.com AD will remain as it is and it may take time to migrate y.com AD to x.com

Hi,

Desperately needs some help.

I am trying to perform additional configuration for Active Directory Rights Management Services on my home lab.  Everything went well except on the final step (Results), I got the following error without the quotation marks:

"Errors were encountered while installing the following roles, role services, or features:

Active Directory Rights Management Services

One or more AD RM role services couldn't be configured:

Index was out of range. Must be non-negative and less than the size of the collection.  Parameter name: index

Errors were encountered during the installation of the following role services:

Active Directory Rights Management Server"

I have looked online for a solution but to no avail.  Can someone please tell me what is wrong and direct me to a step-by-step process on how to fix it?

I am running the Exchange Server 2013 on Windows Server 2012 which is installed on a physical Dell server.

Thank you,

Exchange calculator 2013 / Using multiple databases on a single volume

$

Hi!

I’m currently trying to design a 2 DAGs solution for a customer with 4 copies, on 2 datacenters.

I would like to apply best practices here and use 4 databases on each JBOD disks.

However, I’m unable to set the sizer to get a 4 db/volume configuration if I use the Active/Active (Multiple DAG) setting.

Only way to get this result is to increase the number of servers.

However, this is OK if I use the Active/Active (single DAG) option.

Am I wrong somewhere ?

Thanks for your help! Have a great day !


Cannot make autodiscovery work internally - "401 The target principal name is incorrect"

$
0
0

Hi all

Im in process of migrating Exchange 2010 to 2013. I've alreay installed a two node multirole cluster of Exchange 2013. using the same cert i'm already using on the Exchange 2010.

My internal windows domain "internaldomain.lan" is different from the public domain "publicdomain.com".

In my exchange2010 environment the autodiscovery is working fine, and when i try to browse https://webmail.internaldomain.lan/autodiscover/autodiscover.xml, it works correctly (returns 600)

But when trying to browse Exchange 2013 autodiscovery through the same url (forcing dns resolution through hosts file), IIS returns 401 error. It never accepts the login credentials.

The Test-OutlookProviders command shows 401

ScenarioDescription : Autodiscover: Outlook Provider
Result              : Failure
Latency             : 61
Error               : System.Net.WebException: The remote server returned an error: (401) Unauthorized. ---> System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception: The target principal name is incorrect

"The target principal name is incorrect" seems to indicate there is a problem with the certificate.

My certificate has a "webmail.publicdomain.com" principal name, and lots of SAN: "autodiscover.<smtpdomains>" and one "webmail.internaldomain.lan"

Forcing hosts to resolve those names to CAS 2013 works for them except for the "webmail.internaldomain.lan"

Tried to force Outlook providers to "msstd:webmail.publicdomain.com" but with no result.

Any idea about what can be the problem or how can i solve this situation?

Thanks!

Outlook 2013 - Exchange 2013 - Prompts for username and password when EWS basic authentication is enabled

$
0
0

So we have an Exchange 2013 environment, and a CRM solution that requires basic authentication to EWS internally.  Problem is, after a reboot of our Exchange server, all of our Outlook clients begin prompting for username and password (which nothing works) which also starts locking users AD accounts out due to failed login attempts (somehow).  If I disabled basic authentication on EWS, Outlook authenticates as normal using NTLM and there are no issues.  Once Outlook has authenticated, I can turn back on basic authentication, and Outlook will be fine until the next time the Exchange server is rebooted.

Any ideas?

Mailbox Database ( Microsoft Exchange Standard vs Enterprise edition)

$
0

Hi All,

I learned that Exchange standard support up to 5 mailbox database. Meanwhile, enterprise edition support more than that.

But I am confused on Mailbox Database.

My company currently is using freeware (Hmail Server) and we are planning to change it. There are alot of domains for email users created for different regions.
Eg:  xxx@jb.xxxx.com

xxx@cam.xxxx.com

xxx@pol.xxxx.com

There are more than 10 domains in my company freeware mail server. 
So my question is, do domains need to be seperated based on mailbox database or multiple domains can be created in 1 mailbox database?

Regards

Thomas

3. Shut down 2 CAS servres

4. Shut Down 2 Mailbox servers

unfortunately users are not able to connect to DR site and i couldnt open the ECP site from DR ( login prompt comes but after authentication it blank)

on the DR Exchange OWA virtual directories Internal directory URL is not the same as production.

Exchange 2013 - Search Index corrupted, cannot be fixed.

Hi all,

We have an Exchange 2013 server of which the search index is corrupted.
The message when checking the search index in Powershell is as following:


Get-MailboxDatabaseCopyStatus -Server SERVERNAME | FL Name, *Index*

Name : Mailbox Database 1
ContentIndexState : FailedAndSuspendedContent
IndexErrorMessage : The content index is corrupted.

When checking the Event viewer, we see the following message logged:

In this message, the problem seems to be in the following line:

due to the state 'Failed', error code: 'CatalogCorruption',
failure code: '4036033', failure reason: '5 consecutive merges failed. Requesting seeding as it is >= 5
I just can't find the solution for it. What i've tried:

- Upgrade Exchange 2013 to CU8.
- Stopped the search services, deleted the search index folder and started the services. This triggers the re-creation of the search index, but after some hours indexing, it fails again with the same reason.
- Executed a RepairMailboxRequest to check all mailboxes on the mailserver for problems, this came up with no problems.

Anyone know how I can solve this issue?

Exchange 2013 Mailbox Move FailedOther

$
0

I am attempting to move 600 Mailboxes from my Exchange 2010 SP3 environment over to my Exchange 2013 environment all in all everything is going smooth Exchange is functioning properly. 

I have successfully moved half of my users in which I found a problem with 2 accounts. The move status shows "FailedOther" at 95% complete. I have been searching the google for 2 days now and I have not found a solution to this problem. The user account still shows that is on our old Exchange 2010 server. I have attempted to force restart the move but that fails and it says at FailedOther. 

Has anyone seen this problem before? My Environment is as follows

1 Server Mailbox server EMS - Mail box roles -  Specs 8 Procs, 14 GB of RAM running on a VM Server 2012 DC

1 Server Cas server - Client access server -  4 Procs, 12 GB Ram running on a VM Server 2012 DC

Exchange 2013 CU1 and all accumulative updates since CU1 release. 

I read some where this was because I didn't have enough resources for the move which I then bumped up the server to the current specs and rebooted the VM. I restarted the move with 

Get-MoveRequest | where{$_.Status -eq "FailedOther"} | Resume-MoveRequest

Do I need to remove this move request and start from the beginning or should this command work? 

Mailbox Replication Service

I have an Exchange 2010 server whose mailbox replication service is using 99% of CPU

all mailboxes are on 2010

I have a legacy 2003 SBS that is not doing anything and has most/all of the exchange services stopped.

I disabled the replication service on 2010 to reclaim cpu..next morning mailbox database and public folder database were dismounted and would not mount until I started the replication service.

I assumed this service was only needed for mailbox moves not production messaging services/database availability...?

How to change the Name and/or Alias of a Public Folder Mailbox in Exchange 2013

$
0
0

So when I migrated our servers from 2010 to 2013. I did not plan well and ended up with this.

Name                      Alias
----                      -----
Mailbox1                  PF1
Mailbox2                  Mailbox2
Mailbox3                  Mailbox3

As you can see the first mailbox is named PF1. I want to be able to change both the name and the alias, but have failed to find mechanism for doing so in ecp or powershell. Any assistance is greatly appreciated. I would also like to change the email address for these as right now they are PF1@domain.com, Mailbox2@domain.com, Mailbox3@domain.com

Thank you very much
