While IPv6 is required for supportability, it does not cause this particular issue.
A reinstall will not undo any work, as long as you specify the same set of parameters. :) From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Geoff Orlebeck Sent: Tuesday, November 26, 2013 1:06 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [Exchange] Ex2010 EMC Initialization Fails: Michael: I was looking through various links and TechNet articles and found something related to IPv6. I noticed the server replied to ping with IPv6 addresses, but IPv6 was unchecked in the NIC properties (I'm inheriting the base 2008 R2 server from a build template). I didn't see the reg key in there for disabling IPv6, or at least setting IPv4 as the preferred method. I added it and the server is now replying with IPv4 address, but the issue persists. Not sure if that has anything to do with this. As for the reinstall of Exchange, I just want to confirm whatever work I have already performed won't be undone by the reinstall (database creation and mailbox additions to AD users). Thanks.

Not to show my complete lack of experience, but when you say a re-install, are you referring to the WinRM component? Or the full Exchange installer? I'm not sure how to perform the reinstall of WinRM. From: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Michael B.

Let me look at my notes and I'll get back to you.

I'm fairly new with Exchange, I've done about 2-3 Exchange standard installs and never encountered this. The only thing different on this install than on other Exchange deploys I have performed was we modified the program files install directory from the standard "C:\Program Files\..." to the "D:\Program Files..." (as decided by higher ups than me). Normally I leave default install directory and move database/log files to data drive. I don't know if that has any bearing, but this is the first time I've installed the Exchange program files to the non-default directory.

Domain is one AD and one Ex2010 server. This is a newly created domain, so this is the first Exchange server in the new domain. Ex2010 server was installed using the "typical" installation option (HUB, CAS, Mailbox, Mgmt. Tools). Exchange installed without issue (or at least no visible errors from installer window). Now though, when attempting to launch EMC we are met with one of two error messages: 1) If I login with the default Administrator account it comes up with an error stating it couldn't find "DOMAIN\Administrator". 2) If I login with a different admin-level account I receive this error: "[exchangeserver.domain.org<http://exchangeserver.domain.org>] Connecting to remote server failed with the following error message: The WinRM client received an HTTP server error status (500), but the remote service did not include any other information about the cause of the failure. For more information, see the about_Remote_Troubleshooting Help topic. It was running the command 'Discover-ExchangeServer -UseWIA $true -SupressError $true -CurrentVersion 'Version 14.3 (Build 123.4)". I saw a suggestion about disjoining/rejoining the domain, so I gave that a shot without success. I bounced both servers and tried accessing EMC after they both came back from the clean restarts. The other oddity is using the built-in "Administrator" account everything (seemingly) works from EMS. I am able to (seemingly) perform any/all functions from the shell, but EMC continues to give the error message about being unable to find "DOMAIN\Administrator". If I login as the other admin account, I get error #2 from above for both EMS and EMC. Any suggestions would be met with great appreciation.
