RE: High Physical Memory Utilization
Sorry boss, I'd venture to say you know a lot less than most of us.

Sounds like you robbed someone blind... -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, January 10, 2002 1:40 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: High Physical Memory Utilization Excuse me for doubting but I can only base my assumptions on real world experience. I know for a fact that a typical Exchange Box with Mailboxes providing Mapi based services with a 4 gig priv will run around 800 meg ram utilization. With two processors and a raid controller on this box your would drastically reduce the disk i/o activity on this box which equates to cooler drives and a longer lasting exchange box. Maybe it's overkill but I'd much rather have an Exchange Box running at 1% processor utilization and have 20% of my physical ram free. Thanks.

If policy dictates that Exchange Server is classified as a critical system I would think you would want to spec the system appropriately. Secondly, getting what you want from upper management is a skill and requires good salesmanship and good political tactics. I would think you guys and gals would consider this an asset.

The real world has to adapt. I could spend far too much money on a server that should last 5-8 years. But then I would rather spend money on a server that suits the company needs now and for the next 3-4 years and replace it with one after that time. And if I ask for silly money now, I am not going to get it for anything else that may need it (you never know what's around the corner). Its experience that is showing all of us that we don't need a server with a spec that high. If a change occurs that should suddenly change your user base or policies, then use it for some more money to upgrade/replace your server.

I'd ask them to crank the TTL down on your stuff to an hour NOW. Then by the time they change the records, it will take no more than one hour for all caching hosts to update. The one hour is what I crank mine down to, when I foresee a change in DNS hosting coming down the pipe. Sometimes even 15 minutes, believe it or not. You may be happy with 6 or 12 or 24 hours; but the point is that a one hour TTL won't matter on a domain like tripathimaging.com; there aren't that many records.

RE: High Physical Memory Utilization
Dr. Dogg and myself are definitely two different people. While you say Sometimes I can be too direct., I am direct all of the time, I leave no room for interpretation. It's not to say either of us is correct, but you were very much incorrect in the way you made your definitive statement and it wasn't just to Dr. Dogg, you told others that their configs were wrong too. I'm sure all of us would like to have the most powerful servers alive in our server room, but we get paid to make the correct decision and we are trusted to make the correct decision. What if your company had a third party come in and analyze your network, then report to your management that your network was over spec'd. Your level of trust has just been dropped. My senior management trusts me to make good decisions and I frequently get asked if I'd bank my job on those decisions. My reply to that is I'll bank my job on any technical decision I make...

RE: High Physical Memory Utilization
Well, I have found something that we both agree on. I am very much a fan of Dell Servers. In fact, every server room I touch is covered in Dell Blue and Cisco Green. As for your infrastructure theory, that is what most of us are paid for. I'm not satisfied if I don't get 99.999% uptime out of my network. I don't do downtime and I certainly don't tolerate downtime. Neither do most of the folks here. We do like to have a life outside of our jobs so we make sure we place the correct hardware in our infrastructure. That does NOT mean, we place the most powerful server we can buy for 400 users. At one of my previous jobs, we ran close to a 1000 users on a PII 400 with 256MB of RAM. Never had any downtime or performance issues... As has been stated, YMMV, but I seriously doubt all that hardware was necessary for your 400 users D -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, January 11, 2002 8:47 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: High Physical Memory Utilization Yes. I agree with the first paragraph. That's why I chose to apologize. However, make correct decisions can be based on your specific environment. Given the same problem we might all solve it a little differently. Some problems only have one answer. However, when it comes to hardware preference does matter. You might use Compaq whereas I prefer Dell, someone else might preference IBM. I prefer to throw more hardware at the solution. As for the auditing, my department is audited 4 times per year by an internal audit group and once per year by an external audit group. Every year I pass with flying colors. Why, server uptime and stability, application availability, services availability, etc Downtime reports are seldom to say the least. However, I'm not bragging. I'm simply trying to add credibility to my proposal for appropriate hardware solutions. It does not stop with the servers. I purchase the best cabling, best patch panels, best switches, best security options, best monitoring options, etc... that I can. In my opinion, if your having a problem with a system it's always a good time to evaluate your infrastructure and hardware to keep these problems from occurring in the first place.

Second,I would ask the question why can you not do full (normal) backups every day unless of course your data outstrips your tape size on each server. I think you are reading into differentials too deeply. Personally I would recommend Veritas Backupexec as NTBackup is a stripped down version albeit free, but again it comes down to the horses for courses and each person can tell a different story where backups are concerned. My reasoning is the restore times from testing are faster with Veritas. Whether you want to pay that much more is the question?. Yours sincerely, Sean McGilligan [ I realize there are no stupid questions but only stupid people who ask questions so I'll throw my hat into the stupid ring as this is probably very simple... I finally got my boss to buy a DLT drive exclusively for each of my Exchange 2000 servers. From all I've read here and elsewhere I decided to use NTBackup rather than ARCServe on my servers. I cannot, however, find a way to setup the backups correctly. I aim to do a nightly full backup at 11pm with differentials every two hours from 6am until 8pm when the tape would be replaced for that night's backup. I see in the backup wizard how to set the daily backup as a normal and how to schedule a second differential backup for only the information store at my selected times. However, the option to append rather than overwrite the media is grayed out on the differential. If this differential is going to overwrite the full backup then a single tape source for backup isn't feasible. I'm sure it is but I'm just missing something so anything you can offer would be appreciated. ] _ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin:[EMAIL PROTECTED] NOTICE: This e-mail message and any attachment to this e-mail message contains confidential information that may be legally privileged.

RE: Win2k backup and Exchange
If your backups are so damn important, why do you use some crappy a$$ backup product like ArcCrap? If your lawyers want so much out of so little, why don't you explain to them that in order to reach their desired goal, they will have to spend some coin to accomplish this? Might I suggest CommVault Galaxy? Having nightly full backups or differentials will give you no love in a entire server crash. Is your system so unstable that it crashes that frequently? Would you not see a full-blown crash coming if you were performing periodic system maintenance? I would see it, I have seen it... I've done many disaster recoveries in my time and most every time, I have been able to recover every piece of mail. Exactly, what kind of service are these lawyers expecting? Are you planning on keeping backups up to date within the hour or something? Again, why are you not using a REAL backup solution if your data is sooo sensitive and your needs so great? Sounds to me like someone told these lawyers they could offer a high level SLA with a very poor plan in place... Just my opinion of course... I know what I can offer and how I will offer it though... -Original Message- From: Michel, David [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, January 07, 2002 10:40 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Win2k backup and Exchange As much as I appreciate multiple links and sarcastic comments, I do not see anywhere in the whitepaper from either 5.5 or 2000 on how you can roll logs forward IF THE LOGS AREN'T THERE... Have you ever heard of a full system crash? Although I admit it is much less likely than any other type of failure it is still possible to lose the entire server, isn't it? And if it is, the logs you are so fond of referring to will be about as useful as your sarcasm. If you ever have the misfortune to work for lawyers you will find that there are certain things you do and deal with and a full system daily backup which is as up-to-date as possible is an absolute requirement. That is the reason that I am asking and why I feel my use of differentials is warranted. If I am not mistaken, a tape of any sort is only going to be as useful as the last information written to it if that is the only source of data, is it not? Therefore, a full server crash in the late afternoon with only last night's full backup leaves you SOL for almost a full day's work. However, if I am incorrect in my assumption that a tape which contains a full backup along with differential backups will allow me to rebuild my server completely and restore it to the point of the last differential then I would honestly be interested in hearing why. Furthermore, if there is a way to restore and roll the logs should the server that the logs were on be completely dead using just a full backup from the night before than I retract all sarcasm on my part and look forward to hearing how that process would work. -Original Message- From: Kevin Miller [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, January 07, 2002 12:36 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Win2k backup and Exchange READ IT.

RE: Win2k backup and Exchange
I think our friend is assuming his entire server died. In which case, he'd be what I would consider a reactive admin versus a proactive admin... Servers don't just crash David. There is always something that leads up to the crash and with real hardware in place such as Compaq, Dell, or otherwise, you will get some kind of indication ahead of time that disaster is near. As Ken mentioned, log files should always be on another spindle unless there are some financial constraints.

Off topic for the list, but what the hell, it's christmas. Since ORB UK is now closed pending the creation of Horus, that means I'm out of contract now. I'm 30, been using MS since before they bought DOS, and I'm a Microsoft Partner in my own right. I have experience in Windows from 3.1 to ME, OS/2 and NT from 2.1 to XP, DOS'en from 3.3 to 7.1, and Linux. I also use BeOS, MacOS X, FreeBSD and SVR4. My current 'learning experience' is QNX. I have experience of Sendmail, QMail, Exim, Exchange 5 and 5.5, and Mailtraq, and have used SPTM, POP3, APOP, ETRN and ODMR. I've been doing telephone and deskside support for the better end of 4 years, and was part of the support team during the launch of Telewest SurfUnlimited. I've used and supported ISDN, ADSL, and Cable Modems, as well as Leased Line, Routed Solutions and Plain Old dial-up. Sad though I am, I can identify a modem model and a RAS by ear. With Lucent Portmasters, I can even tell the ComOs release by listening to it. I'm based in Basingstoke, UK, but don't mind commuting, consulting, homeworking, Remote Adminning, or even travelling if the price is right. I'll do Contract or Permanent, and would be looking for 25 per hour for Contract or 35,000 per annum for permanent.

RE: Restoration Solutions?
NT Backup works great if you need something simple. As far as restoration procedures, I would suggest you read the DR whitepapers on the MS Site. I would also suggest a spare server, running exchange to do the test restores on. At a minimum, test restores should be done every 90 days. That way, you keep up on your procedures, increase your skill level, and verify that you actually have good backups.

RE: Client Access
Well, having some familiarity with the PIX, you'd have to open around 64000 ports up to access Exchange from the internet.

This is a bad idea to open up this communication via the internet. A better solution would be to implement a VPN solution using PPTP directly to the server or another RAS Server. I'm not aware of any problems running RAS on the Exchange box but I suppose it would depend on how the Exch box is configured. If the system has one network card and points directly to the PIX as it's default gateway you should be fine. -Original Message- From: Don Ely [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, December 28, 2001 1:26 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Client Access Well, having some familiarity with the PIX, you'd have to open around 64000 ports up to access Exchange from the internet. Unless you have hacked the registry of the Exchange server to statically assign the ports that Exchange uses for communications. However, my question still stands... If you have OWA and a VPN solution in place, WHY are you trying to access the server off of the internet? What purpose are you serving here?

RE: M$ Exchange Move Server Wizard
Strange, I've never seen Exmerge crash my server, but I suppose there is a possibility. Then again, wouldn't ISScan have the same potential impact? We (the general we) run these utilities occasionally for virus outbreaks, etc... These are the supported methods to ripping stuff out of the IS during these types of outbreaks. So how may I ask do you propose admins take care of their server then? Most of us know that there are different versions of Exmerge for the different levels of Exchange, now if this utility is buggy as you say, why do we Exchange professionals out in the real world use it? Why has it been suggested we use it? Or are you quoting how MS wants it done? For those of us in the real world, there is the MS way and there is the real way. Are you telling me I've been doing it wrong for the last 6 years? At any rate, there is a risk involved any time you do anything to the exchange server databases. That's like saying that eseutil is NOT supported because it can crash the server. I'm just curious to your position on all of this. Being a part of MS, I know you can't divulge your honest opinion, but throw me a bone. I've been working with Exchange since it was born, so... I'm a bit curious.

RE: Livevault backup software
I did, it worked. However, if you're going for a solution that expensive, you might as well look at CommVault Galaxy. It costs about the same and is more geared for Exchange. LV is certified on Exchange, but it really depends on how you intend to perform your backups. As you may or may not know, LV backs up to disk, then tape. That means you need an additional server that has at least as much disk space on it as your entire environment. I liked most of the features the product offered. Their Technical Support was great. I would advise others to purchase it, but there are other products out there like CommVault that I like better. Of course, that is more of a personal preference.

We have two buildings across the street from each other connected by a aironet bridge. The other building doesnt have a server but we want one there as an exchange server 2000 with clustering to the other server. The old exchange server will be upgraded with exchange 2000 with windows 2000 advance server to replicate with the server across the street. With the aironet bridge are we able to cluster over this or should we use a partial T1. We want this server to be in the other building so if one building was to burn down we could pick up the in the other building on the same day and not lose any time. Any suggestions would be great thanks RT _ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] 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:[EMAIL PROTECTED] 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:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
