Hi, I am trying to install exchange 2010 sp3 trail in my Lab. During installation for CAS role I'm getting errors for prerequisites which are referring to kb973136,kb977592,kb977624,kb979099,kb979744,kb982867,kb979917  . However i'm not able to find these KBs on Microsoft's site. It seems that their pages have been removed. Can somebody help to get these KBs or is there any other way around.

I need a list if critical event ids for exchange 2010 which should be monitored regularly. So that a script can be scheduled to report if in case any of these event ids are encountered. I have complied a list below and request you guys to add on this list.

Event ID Message
1004 Unable to start the Microsoft Exchange Information Store. Disk is full.
1022 Database is damaged. This means that online backup cannot complete because the database is damaged.
1034 The disk associated with cluster disk resource driveLetter could not be found. The expected signature of the disk was diskSignature.

I installed SP3 Rollup 8v2 this weekend, going from 7. Since then we are having random client connectivity issues. New profiles can't be created, and some users can't access resources when booking meetings. We can do a registry fix to their machines to add a DS Server, but this is a workaround only. I have uninstalled the Rollup 8v2 and we are still having the issue.

I thought 8v2 was supposed to fix this issue!

I am planning to upgrade from Exchange 2010 SP2 to SP3 for the purpose of migrating to Exchange 2013 later on. Exchange is installed in a separate Exchange Resource Forest with linked mailboxes to users in several other trusted forests.

I understand that the SP3 upgrade involves a schema update to Active Directory, but I am unsure whether I should apply the schema update to these trusted forests or not.

The documentation (https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb125224(v=exchg.141).aspx) states that the schema update should be applied to any domains that contains mail-enabled users. But are the users in the external forests mail enabled or is it only the corresponding disabled user object in the resource forest that is mail enabled?

Do I need to apply the schema update to the external trusted forests or not?

Any help is much appreciated.

hi

We have exchange 2010 sp3 installed and working. we have two sites

Site a

1 x CAS

2 X MBX

Site b

1 x cas

2x mbx

site A is the primary site we currently publish owa our through our TMG server located in the DMZ this is working as expected and carries out the forms authentication. our internal domain is company.local but our external domain is company.com we have created split DNS so that we could use a wildcard cert and to deal with CA new rules. All URL's in Exchange are configured to use the external reference of company.com/

on the IIS server we have a redirection on the root of the site to redirect the requests through to OWA folder and we have basic Authentication enabled. on the OWA folder we have basic and windows authentication.

The problem we have is that when users try to access OWA internally we get username and password box appears once you login with this it then takes you through to the the normal login screen and you have tyo login again I'm thinking that this is the windows authentication that is causing this but not sure?

also would be good to get an understanding as to what the Authentication, SSL and redirection setting should be set to on your CAS servers as looking at the ECP and autodiscover folder within IIS this currently has a redirect set to go to OWA surely that cannot be right,

thanks

Hi

Recently we are having problems with receiving emails, it seems like they take an hour to come through. This is only happening to a few of our customers and selected users. From checking the headers we know the delay is getting stuck at e.mailcontrol.com.e.mailcontrol.com is actually websense which is nothing to do with us. We cant seem to find a pattern but from looking into the event viewer we have a load of errors. I am unsure what these errors are and if this is what is causing the delays for emails coming in and going out. (mainly going out)...Could someone please help me with these two errors?

Been searching forums for some time, and I am hoping I am in correct place.

User (new) on Windows SBS 2008 set up, with E-Mail

User can send and receive E-Mail on Outlook 2010 within domain no problem.

User can send E-Mail outside Domain, no problem.

User cannot receive E-Mail sent from outside Domain.  (Odd, but true)

Log of what Outside sender receives back below.  Have run out of ideas to try, and I'm am looking to be pointed in the correct direction.  Could you please steer toward a path to help me resolve this?  I changed name to user, and external E-mail to outside.  The entire message is otherwise not modified.  This is the only user this happens.  We added a new user last week, no issues...

Outside sender gets the following back:

Sorry, we were unable to deliver your message to the following address.

We recently transitioned from Exchange 2003 to 2007 and everything is working fine except one: When I open the properties of a Mailbox in the Exchange Management Console and go to Email addresses, I cannot change the default email address for anyone... the "Set as Reply" button is grayed out.

I thought this might have something to do with not upgrading the "Default Address Policy", so I poked around and found this http://elfassy.spaces.live.com/blog/cns!FD62C6C24A55FED4!293.entry

I followed the directions to "upgrade" my default address policy but "Set as Reply" remains grayed-out. Prior to this I would get an error when trying to open "Default Policy" under Organization Config | Hub Transport | Email Address Policies and now a wizard runs instead, but I have no idea what to do in that wizard.

How do I get this fixed? I simply want things to work as they did in Exchange 2003... I don't want/need to add a fancy address policy or anything.

From what I have read, I can't install the Exchange 2010 management tools on Windows Server 2003 or 2012. IS there another way. I can track down a windows 2008R2 server if necessary

I am also wondering if I need the entire management tool installation. Can't I install a power shell snap in to do this?

FYI, The issue is that Exchange 2010 will not use our MIIS server attribute to enable a user with email. So our security department has been running SQL to get a list of new users entered in the last 3 days and then pasting the command into a Citrix Powershell session to run the command. I have been tasked to automate it. My plan is to write the SQL to create build the command, write it to a text file and then hopefully pass the script to powershell to add the new mail user. 

I am open to suggestions.

Thanks

Phil

Hello,

Exchange 2010

How can I re-create a PowerShell Virtual Directory with multiple exchange and IIS servers?

Using: New-PowerShellVirtualDirectory -Name Powershell -RequireSSL:$False ---- ON Exchange1

Results: Message - PowerShell exists on Exchange2.

I wanted to create the PowerShell Virtual Directory on Exchange1. Exchange 2013 has a -Server argument but 2010 doesn't.

Is there a similar argument for 2010 that doesn't show in the cmdlets?

Thanks,
