Replicate database and log to other exchange server
Rights to Send As - Security Enabled Group with DL Members
I would like to create a Security Enabled Universal Group that has rights to send as another mailbox.
If I nested Non-Security enabled Universal DLs into this new Security Group, would this still translate in members being able to send as that mailbox?
Configuration
Universal Security Group: MBX_HelpdeskMailbox_SendAS
Members of MBX_HelpdeskMailbox_SendAS : "Helpdesk Team", "Desktop Team", "Infrastructure Team" (DLs NON Security Groups)
Applying permission with Powershell
Get-Mailbox "Helpdesk (do not replay) " | Add-ADPermission -User "MBX_HelpdeskMailbox_SendAS" -ExtendedRights "Send As"
Thanks
Exchange 2013 transport logs
Hello!
I have two CAS/MB servers in my test lab - Exch1 and Exch2 (20.1.1.11 and 20.1.1.12 respectively) - and I was very surprised to see them "talking" to each other using their 6TO4 virtual adapters:
Q1: Is this behaviour normal for Exchange 2013SP1?
Q2: What if I disable 6TO4 adapter?
Thank you in advance,
Michael
List all distribution groups and their members
Generally, you can simply get the Distribution Groups or it members by using the following Exchange Cmdlet.
- If we need to get all existing distribution groups, run theGet-DistributionGroup cmdlet.
- If we want to find all distribution group members, use theGet-DistributionGroupMember cmdlet.
However, some administrator inquires if we can list all the distribution groups and their members in a single result. Based on our tests, we can use the following
scripts to list all existing distribution groups and their members.
foreach ($group in Get-DistributionGroup) { get-distributiongroupmember $group | select Name,@{n='DistributionGroupName';e={$group.Name}} }
If there are too many distribution groups and members, you can export the result to a csv file using the scripts below.
$groupmembers = foreach ($group in Get-DistributionGroup) { get-distributiongroupmember $group | select Name,@{n='DistributionGroupName';e={$group.Name}}
}
$groupmembers | Export-Csv C:\DGgroupmembers.csv –NoTypeInformation
Then you can find the result in the DGgroupmembers.csv file.
Reference:

Note:
Based on my tests, the above scripts apply to Exchange Server 2007, Exchange Server 2010 and Exchange Server 2013.

Certificate mismatch in Outlook client after removing local SANs
Machine: Exchange Server 2007 Std. (single deployment)
After not being able to renew certificates with internal SANs, I've re-keyed using external only. I've follow instructions set out athttps://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/940726?wa=wsignin1.0 to map internal URL's to the external address, and a DNS zone was created to map the external URL to the internal resources. No problems with OWA, but the Outlook client now pops up a certificate warning. Common yes, but most are fixed after following the instructions.
Here's the kicker. Everything works fine (no pop up) when creating a new profile and letting it autoconfigure, and client access tests work fine in both the old and new profile.
I'd like to try and avoid having to create new profiles for all my users... that's a hands-on time consuming nightmare, but so far I haven't seen an alternative.
Any clues?
dynamic to security group creation
I couldn't find Exchange 2007 discussion forum so I hope this is OK to ask this question here...
I have a security system (for access ID security badges) that is able to query AD Security Groups to assign certain permission to each user. We need to identify 10 mouth employees. These employees AD accounts are in several diferent OU's so I created a query based dynamic distribution group for 10 month employees.. However, our security system cannot see dynamic distribution groups. Can anyone think of a way how I can make a security group from this dynamic distribution group? Maybe something like a script to export users from the Dynamic group I haven't tried anything yet hoping someone out there has had the need for something like this already. thanks

Exchange 2013 - EML files missing attachments when not running in cached exchange mode.
Hi,
We have recently upgraded from Exchange 2010 to Exchange 2013. Since the migration we have had issues with
our archiving system. Bascially the archiving system creates .eml files types
When Outlook is running in non-cached exchange mode any attachments within these .eml files are missing when the eml file is opened. If you change Outlook to run on cached mode the attachments show up fine.
It's almost identical to the following issue;
http: // social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/office/en-US/b9a390a9-e014-4098-ad6e-dd377a53422a/office-2010-exchange-2010-attachments-in-emlemails-are-invisible?forum=outlook
Except for the Exchange version this is exactly what is happening to us. Is anyone aware of whether the same issue fixed in Rollup update 5 for Exch 2010 SP1 is present in Exchange 2013?
Is Exchange cumulative update necessary or required?
Hello guys,
We just finished setting up and installing Exchange 2013 on our new server. Do I have to install the cumulative update 8? Is this necessary to have installed? Sorry I know its a newbish question but I'm fairly new to Exchange. Oh by the way, ive already extended the schema and have done the AD prep parts. Thanks so much!
Export Message from Queue
Hi,
I am using Exchange server 2013.
I know before we export a message we have to suspend it.
When I suspend the message using the command below, it goes into "Pending Suspend" state.
Get-Message -Identity "HT04\7\98384060" | Suspend-Message
Now, when I run Export-message, it gives me below error:
Export-Message -Identity "HT04\7\98384060" | AssembleMessage -Path "C:\users\raghu\Desktop\ram.eml"
The requested operation can't be performed for the object with identity HT04\7\98384060.

Am I doing something wrong here ?
Can some body advice me the correct steps to export a specific message from Active Queue ?
CAS High-Availability question
Hi,
I'm in a process of upgrading a single Exchange 2010 server to multiple Exchange 2013 servers.
Here's what I have:
Site A :
- Existing Exchange 2010 server
- New Exchange 2013 CAS server
- New Exchange 2013 Mailbox server
Site B:
- New Exchange 2013 CAS server
- New Exchange 2013 Mailbox server
the WAN link between the 2 sites is >100Mbps
I did create a DAG for the 2 Mailbox servers and everything is working fine.
However, it is the CAS part that I'm not sure of. How can I configure some high-availability for the CAS part? What I would like is that clients in site A always connect to CAS in site A and clients in site B always connect in site B UNLESS one of the CAS fails. Note that I have NO load balancers.
From my understanding, I would have 2 options:
1) Do DNS round robin with the 2 CAS but I dont like that option because half of the clients in site A will connect to the CAS in site B and half of the clients in site B will connect to CAS in site A. This is not optimal.
2) Install the CAS role on the Mailbox servers. Configure Windows Load Balancing (one in site A containing both the CAS and Mailbox/CAS servers and another one in site B for CAS and Mailbox/CAS in site B). Configure the WLB in both sites so that the CAS server receives 99% of the client requests. This way, the CAS role on the Mailbox server would only be used when the CAS server fails. This way, I believe that if a site fails (let's say Site A fails), I would need to change the DNS host record for the CAS VIP in site A so that it now point to the CAS VIP in site B.
Are these my only 2 options? Do you have any other recommendation?
Thanks
Room finder not working
Hi,
I am running exchange 2013 CU7 with outlook 2013. Everything is up to date. Recently we noticed that the room finder could not show anything. So I searched for solutions on the web. I ended up creating a 3 room lists and population them with our rooms.
I did some testing with 2 user accounts on different environment. here are the results
In OWA : the 2 user accounts are able to see the room list and the room finder works fine
On my computer running outlook : none of the user account see the room list and room finder always shows "None".
On a TSE server running outlook :one account sees the room list and room finder works. with the second account, I cant see the room list and room finder always shows "None"
On the exchange server, I've tried to update the offline address book, and then force the update on client side. On my computer I also tried to recreate my outlook profile. It didnt help.
I'm getting desperate, I dont know what else to try to get it to work with any user on any outlook.
any help appreciated
Failover Clustering Error - Code 1129
Hi all,
This morning i found an issue in my exchange 2013 server (mailbox server) which is somehow i can't ping it. It happened on 8:08 AM, so i took restart server action immediately. After the restart action, everything went smooth as if nothing happened, but in the next morning it occurs again (so far it is already occurred 3 days in a row at the same time (8th, 9th, and 10th June in the morning))
When i look at the event viewer, i found many error about failover clustering (code 1129) right before 8:08 AM.
https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/getfile/667930
My questions are :
1. Arefailoverclusteringerrors (1129) whichcauses this exchange mailboxservercan notaccessible ?, if they aren't the cause for this issue, so what is actually happen to this server ?. I've check the network and it is fine.
2. Is there any way to solve this issue ?, so far what i'm doing is >>> on TCP global parameter, i disabled the receive-side scaling state by this command on cmd : netsh interface tcp set global rss=disabled
I'm looking forward to your help, thank's :)
Update 11th June 2015 : this morning the issue occured again
List the size of ALL mailboxes in 2013?
Hello,
I LOVED how exchange 2003 had the mailbox sizes as easy as a mouse click in the GUI.
I used a script in PS to list mailbox sizes in sorted order in Exchange 2007 and 2010 using get-mailboxstatistics.
It seems 2013 get-mailboxstatistics is only designed to look at 1 mailbox.
Can someone point to a command or script I can use in 2013 to get a list of all mailboxes on the server or in a database - preferably sorted by size? (I do not want to have to type the name of each user into a script or on PS to get this info)
Thanks
How to edit the autodiscover settings for Exchange 2013
Hello,
I can edit some Autodiscover settings in ECP, but not enough. Problem is that with autodiscover, these two lines are automatically checked:
- On fast networks, connect using HTTP first, then connect using TCP/IP
- On slow networks, connect using HTTP first, then connect using TCP/IP
But that gives continuously the login screen when starting Outlook and every client must disable those two manually. This does not seems to appear on Apple devices.
Anyone knows how to do that?
Thanks.
One of my stores go off line on the weekend Exchange 2010
I'm not sure where to post this as I'm not seeing an Exchange 2010 forum.... but my problem for the past two weekends is one of my stores (I have four stores total) has gone offline. The logs only show that it went off line but not why. It isn't the exact same time but within 12 hours. The others stay running fine. I can put it back online easily and stays until the next weekend. I have Exchange 2010 standard.
Any place I can look off hand?
Thanks!
