Moving folders through replication, agent scripts

2001-11-28 Thread Herold Heiko

Just a thing I found out while experimenting with PF replication,
moving, where some PF have agents installed. I thought somebody else
could find this interesting.
Some help arouse by Michael Veitch (thanks).

Two server, same site, PF server for old and new is the old server (new
didn't have a PF store until recently).
PF with agent on old server. Add replica on new server, wait for
syncronization, change home server, wait, remove instance on old server.
Bummer, agent won't run anymore.
Give permission on the destination server for the Events
Root\Eventconfig_server and wait some time, until dest. server  is
available for selection in outlook - agents - run scripts in this
server. Change it, test:

Event has fired for newly arrived object, but not for a couple of email
arrived while the event service was still configured on the old server.

This is rather important - appareantly it means it is necessary to move
the event script to the new server *before* removing the old instance.
It also means when moving recursively (with propagate change to
subfolders) lots of folders it is necessary to change manualy from
outlook the server scripts are running on, or to write code which does
it, before removing the old instance.

Bye
Heiko

Maybe a stupid question, have you installed the event service 
on the new PF
server ?

If you have you given yourself the necessary rights to create an event,
client permissions must be at least author level?

 Yes, could be usefull, thanks.
 In fact in this moment I'm experimenting with the event 
service: after
 replicating, changing home server, remove original replica the event
 service on the dest. server won't monitor that folder. In fact in
 outlook there's a value run these agents on these servers where
 currently the old server only is selectable. Still pooring through
 documentation.

 Just in case your trying to check if your PF's are fully 
 replicated, there
 is a tool supplied on the Exchange CD that you can use to do this:
 
 The Public Folder Replication Verification tool 
(Replver.exe) compares
 public folders on Microsoft Exchange Server computers to 
 determine if their
 contents have been successfully replicated. 
 
 
 Might be worth a look.

RE: Moving folders through replication, agent scripts

Yes, it's indeed true that event scripts are tied to a specific server.
They don't travel with the public folder and don't replicate with new
instances.
