RE: Exchange 2000 and GC
The way to do it is have a cisco local redirector in front of your 2 GC and then do a load balancing rule on the cisco local redirector to send all traffic to gc1 untill processor threshold reaches 80% and then after 80% to send traffic to GC2 this way gc1 will answer all requests until its processor threshold reaches 80% and then shift load to gc2. -Original Message- From: Petri [mailto:omatesti@;jippii.fi] Sent: Thursday, October 31, 2002 12:08 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Exchange 2000 and GC Hi Folks, I have plans to create almost a big Exchange 2000 environment. And I have some open question where I need more a real life answers than MS-white papers. At first I will create own AD site for Exchange 2000, so users logons will go other sites. Also I thought to install GCs on the same servers than Exchanges are. I haven't seen any good answers we should I not to do this. Backup/recovery might be one and if I have problems with GC, but still... But if I use GCs on the same server, then I might have better performance from GC, less users and only one Exchange per GC. Maybe I need one server more to decrease user counts on one server, but it should not be so big. So I don't need so much hardware. And now it is very easy to dedicate one GC per one Exchange 2000 servers. If I use separated GC servers: MS recommends using one CPU in GC against four Exchange servers, which have one CPU. This sounds like no matter how many users we will have in Exchange servers ? If I have eight servers where are 10 users in each one. Do I still need two GC servers (assuming that servers are one CPU servers). Is here anyone who have more than ~3500 users per server which is not clustered ? May I hear any comments from you, how it really works ? How often you are rebooting your servers or unmounting databases ? Was it SLA your only argument when you planned storage groups and databases ? best regards .-Pepi-. _ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:leave-exchange@;ls.swynk.com Exchange List admin:[EMAIL PROTECTED] _ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:leave-exchange@;ls.swynk.com Exchange List admin:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

FW: Interesting EX2K migration solution
It is possible. You don't need a GC in the location that has no win2k/e2k, all you need is a proper dns or a wins entry on your nt4 location dns server for the e2k server on the other side and your users will be able to connect with their outlook to that e2k server. I am just wondering what your plan is to move the mailboxes from NT 4 location to E2K server in the other location. Are you guys planning on dropping a ADC and do it that way or do you just plan to use EXMERGE and do it that way.

RE: HELP, can I change the name of the exchange server?
Right now renaming a e2k server is hard. Since it uses AD renaming the netbios name is not a good idea unless you are very familiar with ADSI edit utility. IT seems simple enough to change the netbios name but I am not sure that all instances of that name will get changed in the AD structure, its just like renaming a domain, right now you can rename a child domain but you have ti do a lot of stuff thru adsi edit to make it work because not all instances of the domain name get changed in the AD structure, not to mention the changes in the registry. That's why they have made it easier to rename the child domains in .NET. But I moved a exchange server from ny to ma, changed ips put it into a completely different ip scheme and it worked like a charm, given that changing an IP is much easier than renaming, but I think you should be ok to rename as long as you make sure the new name has an account in the domain, all your wins records are updated and your dns records are updated. But if you are so concerned about the bug on the old server, once you move all the mailboxes to the new server, why don't you just remove the old server from the site, that way the old server is totally out of the picture. JUST MAKE SURE YOUR MX RECORDS ARE POINTED TO THE RIGHT SERVER, ALSO IF YOU DO THIS AND REMOVE THE OLD SERVER OUT OF THE SITE THEN YOU MIGHT HAVE TO MANUALLY EDIT ALL THE OUTLOOK PROFILES. SO I SUGGEST MOVING ALL MAILBOXES OVER TO NEW SERVER, MAKE THE MX RECORD POINT TO NEW SERVER THEN MAKE SURE YOU HAVE MAIL FLOW FOR A DAY, IN ONE DAY MAKE SURE ALL YOUR CLIENTS CONNECT TO EXCHANGE SERVER, THIS WAY ALL THEIR OUTLOOKS ARE UPDATED AUTOMATICALLY WITH THE NEW SERVER NAME AND THEN REMOVE THE OLD SERVER OUT OF THE SITE.

RE: SEPARATE EXCHANGE ROUTING GROUPS FOR HOSTING SAME DOMAIN ONSEPARATE EXCHANGE 2000 SERVERS
just because you have two exchange servers in 2 seperate routing groups that should not prevent the 2 exchange servers from seeing each other or for the MTA's on each server to be able to recognise which server the mailboxes are on and send them to the appropriate server. Are your routing groups connected via a smtp or a ip connector. Also are the upns for the users the same on both servers, meaning when you create a user name on the win2k dc when it gives you the option for upn name does it say xyz.com on both servers, meaning if you create a user cslled kane on server a is it [EMAIL PROTECTED] and if you create a user called kane1 on server b is it [EMAIL PROTECTED] or is it [EMAIL PROTECTED] UPNS have to be the same on both servers. Having said that are these 2 servers in the same domain, sorry if you had already answered this question in your essay, but answer it again. Are they part of the same domain or are they 2 seperate domainslike one is xyz.us.com and the other is xyz.europe.com. If they are different i bet you your upns are also different. I would suggest trying to create a upn on server b also called xyz.us.com and assign that all your users and then see if the problem goes away. Also for your users in europe have you created a smtp server on their exchange server and have that forward to a smart host or you did not bother creating a virtual smtp server and directly forwarding everything to a smart host.

I am trying to host a single domain, named us.com on two separate exchange 2000 servers that are each in a separate routing group connected by a routing group connector. However, it is not possible to send mail between recipients hosted on each exchange server, since a bounce occurs. Apparently, the same domain cannot be hosted on two exchange servers that are in SEPARATE routing groups. The above scenario DOES WORK if placing the two exchange servers in the SAME routing group. It appears that having exchange servers in the same routing group ensures that both exchange servers are using the same global catalog in active directory to deliver mail. The way my domain is split is so that one server, call it server A, hosts part of mailboxes for domain us.com. Server B hosts part of mailboxes for domain us.com and all mailboxes for domain europe.local. Both server A and B are primary domain controllers with active directory, DNS and Exchange installed on a single machine. Why do server A and B have to be in different routing groups and have to host the same domain? Server A is located in the US, server B is in Europe. They are connected via a rather reliable VPN. Only server A has a static Internet IP assigned, therefore server B cannot directly accept messages from the Internet; it is connected to a DSL modem with a dynamic IP. Users on server A and B share the same domain name - us.com; user account and mailbox for [EMAIL PROTECTED] is located in the US on server A, while user account and mailbox for [EMAIL PROTECTED] is located in Europe on server B. European users (connecting to server B) cannot have their accounts hosted on server A, since they use Outlook to connect to server B locally. The same, European, users also must have @us.com domain email set as Primary SMTP Account, with the intranet SMTP address @europe.local set as secondary SMTP account. ACTIVE DIRECTORY IMPLEMENTATION: Server A is PDC for domain us.com and has a trust relationship established with server B that is PDC for domain europe.local. Both domains are within the same forest. The DNS entry for domain us.com is on server A, a secondary copy of the domain us.com is stored in server B's DNS. The MX record for domain us.com is pointing only to the exchange server A, the host being a.us.com. Is there a better DNS configuration for what we want? Both Exchange servers are in the same Exchange organization and in the same administrative group. Once routing connectors are created, servers are connected to each other, everything appears to be working in the monitoring view.
RE: domainprep on 2nd nt domain that belongs to a forest
Just wondering, You said 1 forest 2 nt domains. First nt domain has an exchange server and is working fine. 2nd nt domain gives you the error you have described below when trying to install a exchange server. Have you created a 2 way trust between the win2k domain and the 2nd nt domain. Can you get to the win2k dc cia pinging it by FQDN. Does your first nt domain have a trust with win2k domain.

RE: Move server method
Wouldnt be just easier for you to install 2nd server with win2k sp2 exc2k sp2, make it join the same site then move the mailboxes over to the server you just build, make sure you configure the smtp server. then kill the original exchange server, rebuild it with the sam enetbios name and so on and then bring it back online and move all the mailboxes back to that server and make sure smtp and what ever other protocols you want use are configured properly and once that is done just leave the second server that moved all the mailboxes off to the original server after rebuils in the environment for the futur expansion or just kill it. Then you will end up back with the original exchange server taht you rebuilt still hosting all the mailboxes and you would have accomplshed your goal. let me know if this helped. -Original Message- From: vin [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, August 08, 2002 2:41 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Move server method I am running exchange 2000(sp2) on a on a win2k(sp2) DC.

RE: OWA and Drive Mappings
This is what you can do. You can setup that server share on the iis server as a virtual directory. Say http://iisserver.domain.com/servershare, set on that virtual directory "directory browsing allowed" and make sure you have read and write or what ever permissions that you want, then create a folder called server share under your inbox in outlook or whatever client you use then make the default homepage of that folder http://iisserver.domain.com/servershare . Now if you go into owa and then click on that servershare folder under your inbox, it should try and open that home page of that folder and it will try and open that folder. This might work. For this to work I need to know your owa setup. Is owa on your exchange server or do you have an owa server that is separate than the exchange server and sitting in a dmz, please tell me more about your owa setup and depending on that you might have to open some more ports on your firewall or set some rules to allow traffic to the server that the servershare resides on for the above setup to work from outside without being dialed in or vpn'd in. thx -Original Message- From: Michael Agens [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Sunday, June 23, 2002 10:06 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: OWA and Drive Mappings I have something I am trying in OWA but I am not sure that it can be done or not.

IIS QUESTION
Here is the scenario. i have serverA, serverB and SERVERC(LOG FILE SERVER) I need to redirect all the websites log files from serverA and ServerB to serverC. In IIS5.0 when you go into the logfile properties and try to change the patch to a mapped drive it clearly says mapped drives and UNC paths are not supported. But in winNT4.0 it is supported. So i go into the logfile properties on serverA and serverB and change the logfile path from %systemroot%\system32\logfiles to f:\logfiles(mapped drive to serverC) it accepts the path but records event id:2 cannot create folder and cannot write to drive errors. I looked it up and the article says that IIS will write logfiles with the logged on username meaning the account you use for iisadmin service account and if that account doesnt have rights on the path it will try and use the system account. When i go to serverA and serverB and look at the iis admin service it is using the system account and i am trying to change it to my account but the options are dimmed out meaning i cannot change the service account from system to m y user id. I tried this hoping that if i use my user id as the service account then my account has administrative rights on the log file server and i would be ok now that i cannot change the logon account my only option is to give the system accounts from serverA and serverB administrative rights on serverC but i cannot find the system account in user manager for serverA and serverB. I have looked on my pdc and bdc and i can see the system account but on my serverA and serverB which are member servers i dont see the system account, if i can see the system account on serverA and serverB then i can add them to the administrators group on serverC but i dont even see them...

David, you can move a users mailbox with script, look up CDOEXM here's a unchecked code snippet: Sub ADSIMoveMailbox(recipname As String, DestinationServer As String, MailBoxStore As String, StorageGroup As String) Dim objUser As IADsUser Dim objMailbox As CDOEXM.IMailboxStore Dim strMove As String Dim exchPath On Error GoTo errorhandler Set objUser = GetObject(recipname) Set objMailbox = objUser If objMailbox.HomeMDB <> "" Then exchPath = DestinationServer If exchPath <> "" Then strMove = "cn=" + MailBoxStore + ",cn=" + StorageGroup + ",cn=InformationStore," + exchPath MsgBox "Now Moving:" & objUser.Name objMailbox.MoveMailbox strMove <-- This does all the work objUser.SetInfo MsgBox "Move Mailbox operation has been completed for user " + recipname Else MsgBox "FAIL :Server " + DestinationServer + " not found" End If Else MsgBox "FAIL: no mailbox to move for " + recipname End If On Error Goto 0 GoTo EndofItAll errorhandler: If Err <> 0 Then MsgBox "FAIL: Move Mailbox Error while moving user " + recipname + ".

RE: NT to AD Backout Problem
you need to remove those win2k workstations out of the domain into a workgroup, then reboot, then readd them back to the domain, this time when you add them to the domain they will pick up the correct nt domain from your nt servers. Even though your domain is the same name , win2k workstations have to be removed from the domain because they have a domain sid assigned in their registry which points to the win2k DC, since you took the win2k dc's offline, the win2k servers still are looking for that domain sid and your nt server does not have the same domain sid and thus the message trust has been broken. Remove them from the domain and add them back and all your win2k workstations will be fine. Let me know if that helped. thx -Original Message- From: Ken Cornetet [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, May 23, 2002 3:06 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: NT to AD Backout Problem My gut feel is that you'd have better luck promoting one of the BDCs to PDC for backout. -Original Message- From: Martin, Jon [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, May 23, 2002 10:48 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: NT to AD Backout Problem More of an NT/AD than an Exchange issue, but we're only going to AD to get to Exchange 2000, so here goes: As part of planning our migration from our current single NT domain to a single-forest, single-domain active directory, a plan to back out this upgrade in case of unforeseen problems is being developed and tested. The upgrade plan goes something like this: - Create a new NT BDC on new hardware. - Take the production NT PDC offline prior to the AD upgrade. - Promote a new BDC to the PDC. - Upgrade the PDC to AD This is all done using the same netbios domain name in AD as we had in NT, and an internal DNS namespace name that happens to be the same as our WinNT/AD domain name. And, it works great. But, just in case it does not go as well in the real world as it does in our lab, we have the following as a backout plan: - Take the new AD DC(s) offline - Put the old PDC online. - Re-sync the NT domain So far, so good. It all works great - everyone can log back on to the old NT domain and keep going while I figure out what went wrong. Well there is one exception: Windows 2000 workstations and member servers cannot log on - they get a 'Broken trust relationship with the domain controller' message at log on. Win9x and NT boxes have no problem. Any ideas?? Much thanks for any assist.
