Block & remove specific list of ActiveSync ID's

$
0
0

I have a list of ActiveSync ID's, and I need to block and remove them. How can I lookup the matching mailboxes and block and remove just those in the text file... leaving any others intact?

The sample text file referenced in the code below only contains a single sample ID I need to remove, without a header. The first issue I have is that it's not placing the ID into $DeviceID. I'm also not sure this will only leave any other devices alone.

Add-PSSnapin Quest.ActiveRoles.ADManagement Add-PSSnapin Microsoft.Exchange.Management.PowerShell.E2010 Add-PSSnapin Microsoft.Exchange.Management.Powershell.Support $DeviceIDs = Import-csv .\RemoveActiveSyncDeviceIDs.txt | foreach-object { $user = get-qaduser -includedproperties msExchMobileAllowedDeviceIDs -sizelimit 0 | where {$_.msExchMobileAllowedDeviceIDs -match $DeviceIDs} Set-CASMailbox -Identity $user.DN -ActiveSyncBlockedDeviceIDs $DeviceIDs }

Am I close?


Strange NDR's happening

$

I am getting some strange intermittent NDR's to different people on several different mailbox servers. We are in a mixed environment currently with exchange 2007 and exchange 2010. We have a 6 node DAG and the NDR's are only happening to mailboxes on Exchange 2010. Intermittently users will get an NDR with the following error message:

554 5.2.0 STOREDRV.Deliver.Exception:StoragePermanentException.ADOperationException.LdapException; Failed to process message due to a permanent exception with message There was a problem accessing Active Directory. Check your network connections and try again. ADOperationException: Active Directory operation failed on server.domain.com. This error is not retriable. Active directory response: A bad parameter was passed to a routine. [Stage: CreateReplay]

During the time of these NDR's there is no error messages within Exchange or Active Directory that point to an issue. They are also intermittently and happen about 2 or 3 times a day randomly. We've turned up logging for AD Access and the mail submission service on the mailbox servers but nothing has come up so far.

Does anyone have any ideas as to what this maybe?

Can not delete a mailbox in Exchange 2010 (object couldn't be found)

I have a mailbox (recipient type : Legacy) that is showing in EMC 2010, however trying to open the properties provides and error 'The operation couldn't be preformed because object 'domain/user cnf:xxx' couldn't be found on 'domain'

The AD user doesn't exist in AD or ADSI edit.

Running: 'get-mailbox user' - also gives me the above error that the object couldn't be found.

I have cleaned databases and allowed days for replication with no results. Thoughts?

"This Folder Up To Date" vs "All Folders Up To Date"

$

Just finished migrating from Exchange 2003 to Exchange 2010 and have removed the old Exchange 2003 servers. The only issue I'm seeing so far is that my Outlook 2010 clients all show "This Folder Up To Date" whereas they used to show "All Folders Up To Date" so I'm pretty sure that something isn't updating. This may be unrelated but I also notice that the Offline Address Books folder in their AppData\Local folder has an old date stamp. How would I go about troubleshooting this

All,

We have set up a new domain in which we are transitioning mailboxes and users over to. I have a two-way transitive trust set up between these two domains. 

Source domain: AIS.local

Target domain: ais.com

This is the command I'm using to prepare the move request, but I keep getting the error below. I am running this on the target exchange server and I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. That container/OU definitely exists. Maybe I'm typing that command. Please let me know!

Fiber channel san question with Exchange

Hi all,

Sorry for this question, i am sure it has been up many times before.

I have used the mailbox storage calculator tool by the Exchange team and they mention 12 disk RAID 5 and 8 LUNS without database + log isolation.

Now i was of the opinion that that MS recommends RAID 1 per database and log files?

How many others are running smoothly and happily with RAID 5 and have 1 lun per database and log files?

Hi all,

Our customer have a single Exchange 2010 Std server in organisation with 2 mailbox databases, 300 and 500GB.Yesterdaythere was a failure: no free disk space on exchange database storage.A result of failureboth databaseswere in "Dirty shutdown" state.

We tried to use eseutil in recovery mode, bot got an error during recovery. Eseutil /ml command reported about timestamp errorin the transaction logs. We recovered 300GB database with eseutil /p command and this database wasmounted successfully.

Now we have a problem with 500 GB database. This databasehave the samesymptoms as 300 GB DB: timestamp error during recovery. When we are tryingto run eseutil /p command for 500 GB database, the recovery process terminated with error:

"Operation terminated with error -1620 (JET_errDecompressionFailed, Internal error: data could not be decompressed) after 2388.126 seconds."

Any ideas about recovery this database?

Hi, 
I have applied kb273125 to my server 2008 servers to add South Sudan to the list of Recognized Countries. 
From the info I can find Exchange 2010 appears to pull country information from Powershell and not from the windows server and as such does not recognize South Sudan and gives the error below. 
Warning: 
The object has been corrupted, and it's in an inconsistent state. The following validation errors happened: 
Warning: 
Cannot calculate value of property "CountryOrRegion": "Cannot parse a Country/Region from the ISO-3166 2-letter country/region code "SS", country/region code "0" and friendly name "South Sudan"."
 
Is anyone able to advise how I can get Powershell to recognize South Sudan To stop me getting the object corrupted message. 
Any Help Greatly Appreciated

Exchange 2010 ... could not send message thru OWA

EXCHANGE 2010 SP3

Sending mails stop working. Restarting Exchange does not help. All Exchange services are up.

If a user sends mail from owa, the message automatically goes to draft.

If I run test-mailflow on exchange shell, I recieve a failure.

How else can we track why this problem appears? We havent found the root of the problem yet.

Room Finder does not work

$

I've set up two room lists in a large organisation (50K users) running pure Exchange 2010 accross a huge cas array and multiple mailbox servers. I've added rooms to both lists and also checked that the rooms are set as the correct resource type. However the room finder is empty. The problem occurs in both cached and online mode. Both groups were set up months ago (so not an OAB update problem) and are set as Room lists correctly. Also I can see the groups if I select them from the GAL. This issue affects all users.

I enabled Outlook logging and get two errors when using the scheduling assistant:
2013/05/22 09:27:21.403: CRoomsCTP::FOnPutAppointmentItem(): HrSetASUrl failed. 0x80004005

2013/05/22 09:27:21.840: CRoomsCTP::HrGetRoomListAsync(): HrGetRoomLists failed. 0x8000ffff.

GAL is updating fine as is OAB. I have googled extensively and searched similar threads here but have not found an answer.

I have also checked the worktimes for the rooms in each group and they are set to 8.00am to 5.00pm so its not the outlook hotfix issue

SMTP Messages from Application Server Not Being Delivered Since Exchange 2003 - 2010 Migration

$

Hi all,

Was hoping someone somewhere can shed some light on an issue we've been seeing for the last 3 days. We are in the middle of an Exchange 2003 to 2010 migration.

Everything was going fine regarding mail flow between both servers and inbound / outbound mail to the internet. However, one team has stopped receiving emails from an application server.

They receive NDR reports with the following message:
#5.7.1 smtp;550 5.7.1 Requested action not taken: message refused> #SMTP#

The users mailboxes are still on the 2003 server. I ran some packet captures on the server which also showed the following message:

Response Code: Requested Action Not Taken: Mailbox Unavailable (550).

What I don't understand is that the mailboxes are available and can receive other emails. I have also checked the SMPTP logs and can see the servers communicating with no errors. I have also sent test emails successfully using telnet to the same mailboxes.

Somehow, the introduction of the new Exchange Server has caused this issue but I cannot figure out what it is. If we point the application server to the Exchange 2010 server, the emails are received on my mailbox which resides on that server, but the messages are not received on the Exchange 2003 server.

If anyone can point me in the right direction it would be a huge help.

Thanks in advance!




File distribution service (MSExchangeFDS) not installed?

I just updated the Global Address List but I am unable to restart the File Distribution Service as it is not present in the Services window.

I've also tried to restart it through the command prompt "net stop MSExchangeFDS" and I got an error saying "The service name is invalid". 

How can this be? What can I do?

Thank you


External Server Name?

$
0
0

We run Exchange 2010, and it generally works well.  OWA works like a charm.  However, Outlook autodiscover and some email clients (e.g. on a Windows phone) sometimes have difficulty connecting.  My *hunch* (though I don't know how to test or prove this easily) is that they sometimes get the wrong address to connect to.

Our server has two NICs - one with an internal connection (192.168.x.x) and one with an external (internet) connection.  The server performs most roles in our organization, including DNS.  As a result, there are generated entries in the DNS for the server name in both networks.  (I say they're generated because if I try deleting one, it comes back.)  When I run the Exchange connectivity tests, I see the server name showing up in a few places.  However, "servername.mydomain.com" resolves to a number of different addresses.  Assuming my hunch is correct, I could easily understand how sometimes a client might get the correct external address and other times get the internal address and not be able to connect.

I'm not sure which is the better way to fix this:  to alter my DNS somehow to prevent the addresses from reappearing, or to tweak the Exchange settings so that it goes to something like "mailaddress.mydomain.com".  Unfortunately, I don't know how to do either of these.

Any ideas?  Any help would be MUCH appreciated!

Thanks!

Brad.

Exchange 2010 disclaimer embedded logo

Hi,

I have created a transport rule that adds a disclaimer to every outgoing email message.
Using the attributes all info is filled in perfectly. Also email send through webmail gets the disclaimer added.

is it possible to add a logo to the disclaimer send from Exchange 2010?

We have tested this with the logo placed on a website but depending on the recipients outlook settings this is displayed as a red cross. Not the way we like it to be.

Thanks! 

Checking Which CAS a Client is Connected to - Exchange 2010

Hi

Is there a way to know which CAS a particular client is connected to (Command of IIS) in following scenarios:

1. non-NLB environment

2. In a Windows NLB environment

I understand that (Please correct me if required) - In a non-NLB environment, every mailbox database is stamped with a property called “RPCClientAccessServer”. The mailbox in each database connects to corresponding CAS server in each site.

Thanks
