I just gave you two. Frankly, you shouldn't be taking Exchange servers offline routinely.

Thanks for the reply Ed, so this is how you handle the situation. There has to be a work around...or am I being to hopeful.. Does anybody know why this is by "design"? It does not make sense to me. john -----Original Message----- From: Ed Crowley [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, June 13, 2003 8:58 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: How do You guys/gals handle this: OWA Hanging. You could (1) not take servers offline, and/or (2) upgrade to Exchange 2000 or 2003.

We have 9 exchange 5.5 sp4 nt4 6a servers and 1 exchange server 5.5 sp4 nt 6a running owa and every time we have to take one server offline owa hangs for us. How are you all handling this? Below is the technet article that I found that says this is by design. I don't believe it... john San Diego Community College Email Administrator PSS ID Number: 263890 Article Last Modified on 10/22/2002 The information in this article applies to: * Microsoft Outlook Web Access 5.5 * Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5 This article was previously published under Q263890 SYMPTOMS If multiple Exchange Server computers service Outlook Web Access (OWA) and one of those servers becomes inaccessible, OWA stops responding (or "hangs") for the users that are trying to log on to the inaccessible server and also the users that are trying to log on to the other servers until the attempt to log on to the inaccessible server times out. RESOLUTION This behavior is by design. MORE INFORMATION OWA also stops responding when the Microsoft Windows NT domain is synchronized. During this replication process no OWA users are authenticated, which causes OWA to stop responding.
