Error on Exchange 2013 installation..

$
0
0
Okay here is my question this mainly has to do with an existing exchange server. So I have exchange 2010 installed on a server and say I run the exchange 2013 installation on that same server obviously this wouldn't work do to the existing exchange being on there. But say the installation makes it to the prerequisite Analysis check and fails because the "Server is in an inconsistent state" mainly because exchange 2010 exists on the server already. Would this cause the exchange 2010 to cease functioning?

We know that Public folder is not indexed but we have a feeling that after we have put CU12 -> CU14 upgrade it caused search not working anymore on public folders...
any known issues with CU14?

Why do I have to copy address book to contacts to sync?

$
0
0

This is ridiculous. We use android devices and windows pc's. We have exchange 2010 server in house. Whenever I setup a new users exchange account on their company phone, I have to then open their outlook, select all from the global address book and "copy to contacts". Why? What is the point of "sync" if I manually have to do this to every single phone I activate? This doesn't happen with iPhone, but we do not use iPhone at our organization. 

Also, even if I add a new user, it doesn't "sync" to their phone unless that user is copied to contacts. This is maddening! How is it helpful to have to manually copy to contacts (from address book) every single time I get a new user! 

Is there a way to automatically sync the global address book with contacts so that the contacts on the phone are actually up to date? What happens is I have to open their outlook, select all in the address book, right click and choose "copy to contacts" then they populate, but if a number changes, or goes inactive, this doesn't reflect since the contacts are not connected to the address book! What the heck? How is it helpful to have to manually do this every time when it is suppose to be syncing automatically? 

.Net Framework upgrade

$
0
0

I am planning on upgrading all of our Exchange servers to Cu15. We have 18 Exchange servers, (10 mbx and 8 cas, and yes they are separate servers). My question or concern is more around the .net framework versions. Currently all exchange servers are running CU13 with .net framework 4.6.1. Microsoft is recommending that we upgrade .net framework to 4.6.2. Considering the CAS servers are separate servers from the mailbox servers, if I upgrade a CAS server to 4.6.2, but the mailbox servers are at 4.6.1, will this cause any issues with OWA,EAS,outlook anywhere ? My plan was to upgrade the CAS servers first, then the mailbox servers, but considering we have 8 CAS and 10 MBX, it’s going to take some time before all 18 servers are at the same .net framework version. Any issues with having a CAS server at a higher level .net version from a mailbox server?

Exchange 2013 mailbox migration stalled duration

$

I am in the process of migrating mailboxes from Exchange 2007 to 2013. The moves seem to take an awfully long time. I am migrating a batch of 10 users and the total mailbox size is 32GB. It has been running for 12 hours and is not complete. I have notice that there is a "Stalled Duration Time" what does that represent? Also, what should I expect in terms of migration time?

Move Mailbox Cross Forest Migration

Dear All,

I am performing cross forest migration. I Have performed the below tasks already:

1. Created the two way trust

2. Export and import of certificates. Both Source and Destination domain has the same Certificate.

3. Ran prepare move mailbox script

4. Moved Users using ADMT

5. MRS Proxy enabled

Now trying to perform the move Mailbox, both source and Destination have 4 Exchange 2013 Servers . 2 MBX and 2 CAS servers

I am using the below command to perform the move mailbox:

New-MoveRequest–Identity 'Mailbox1@careexchange.in'–Remote –Remotehostname 'sourceExchange.CareExchange.in' -RemoteCredential$RemoteCredentials–TargetDeliverydomain 'targetexchange.in'

I am gettimng the Below Error

" The call to ‘https://mail.irm.com/EWS/mrsproxy.svc’ failed. Error details: Could not establish trust relationship for the SSL/TLS secure channel with authority ‘mail.irm.com’. –> The underlying connection was closed: Could not establish trust relationship for the SSL/TLS secure channel. –> The remote certificate is invalid according to the validation procedure.."

It look like Something related with certificate. I researched and found that it asking to export import the root Certificate as well,like import Root Certificate of source Exchange CAS server to Destination Exchange CAS Servers and Vice versa

exactly Which cert we need export import I am not getting an idea on this can anybody make it clear, below is the article for the reference:

EX2013 CU15 vs public folder new DB vs DAG

$
0
0

Hi guys.

Two exchange 2013 servers.

We are on CU14 and with PF indexing problem. CU15 is solving that so we are installing it on both servers.

We put 1st server in maintenance mode, and after the CU15 will be installed, we will installed also on 2nd Exchange DAG server. After we have CU15 on both servers we plan to upgrade .net.

Now the question regarding CU15 PF indexing fix. They say you should create new public folder DB and the move PF mailboxes into it.
Ok how to do that if the servers are in DAG?

If you create new DB on primary exchange server (which holds active databases), usually you need to restart information store on exchange server after DB creation.

Will restarting information store service on primary exchange server automatically trigger and put databases active on 2nd DAG member?

With best regards

After this noderunner.exe started using too much memory and at this point i cannot do anything  server is almost out of memory. Is it safe to terminate this process noderunner.exe so that i can get memory back.

I wanted to search tracking log but it was apparently mistake.

Any way to quickly recover from it

Remote Connectivity Analyzer verification challenge always fails

I am trying to debug some connectivity issues related to accessing some on-prem mailboxes as well as some mailboxes that are being moved to Office 365.

I wanted to use the Remote Connectivity Analyzer but over the last couple of days I have been unable to get past the verification step so that I can actually run the tests.  I have tried using Edge, IE11 and Chrome on Windows 10, and Windows Server 2012R2. I have had people looking over my shoulder as I type in the verification code to be sure I am putting in the correct code and I keep getting the following message:

"testconnectivity.microsoft.com says: Verifying the challenge failed. Please refresh the page and try again"

The page specifically says that the code is NOT case-sensitive but I have tried it both ways and still get the error.

Anyone run into this?  Work arounds?  Any thought would be a help,

Thanks in advance,
