Exchange 2003 -2010 cross forest (NDR 5.4.6)

Hi.
Have: Exchange 2003+2010 in source forest. Exchange 2010 in target forest.
Successful migrate mailbox to target forest (in source forest this mailbox convert to mailuser).
When try send e-mail to this mailbox (it`s in target forest) from Exchange 2003 mailbox get this:
A configuration error in the e-mail system caused the message to bounce between two servers or to be forwarded between two recipients.
If send from Exchange 2010 (source/target) - all mail ok.
If delete this mailuser (in source forest) - all set to ok.
x500?
Please, help.
Thanks.

Hi,
In the error event, 5.4.6 means "Routing loop detected" (RFC1893).
This issue occurs if the source Exchange organization is authoritative for the target domain. Because the source Exchange organization is responsible for mail delivery to target, the categorizer tries to find locally a recipient for
that message. The categorizer does not succeed, and then you receive the NDR.
More details in the following KB:
You receive an NDR with a 5.4.6 status code when you send a message to a specific domain in Exchange

Hope it is the solution.

Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2010 cross forest simultaneous mailbox move limits

Hi All,
I am testing the throughput of mailbox moves from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2010 cross forest. Single mailbox moves seem to be quite fast and I am not concerned about network, disk IO or server resource limitations, however I have not tested multiple simultaneous
mailbox moves to determine what the Exchange limitations are. If anyone could identify the limitations of the items below it would be much appreciated:
Limit of Exchange 2007 simultaneous mailbox moves per database
Limit of Exchange 2007 simultaneous mailbox moves per Mailbox server
Limit of Exchange 2007 simultaneous mailbox moves per CAS server
Limit of Exchange 2010 simultaneous mailbox moves per database
Limit of Exchange 2010 simultaneous mailbox moves per Mailbox server
Limit of Exchange 2010 simultaneous mailbox moves per CAS server
Any other Exchange 2007 or 2010 hard coded limits
Thanks in advance.
Michael.

My usual answer to this question is that Microsoft set these limits for a reason. Increasing them may not offer you much in the way of benefits if you end up slamming the server. I generally recommend that you leave them alone.
I have had occasional opportunities to change these constraints, most notably back during a migration to Exchange 2003 and international mailbox moves (Asia to U.S.) where the limiting factor was network latency. I was able to increase the number of
concurrent threads to 16 from the default 2 and there was still available bandwidth because the process was limited by the latency.

Providing voicemail in a trusted-domain Exchange 2003 - 2010 upgrade

As a result of a merger, we are upgrading from Exchange 2003 in the same domain as a Unity 5.0 server to an Exchange 2010 server in a trusted domain in a different forest. The Exchange 2003 server is still up, but mailboxes are being moved to the 2010 server. The goal of getting Unity to somehow deliver voicemail to the users who have been moved to the 2010 server in the other domain is only temporary, as we will be replacing our on-premesis system with a hosted solution in a couple of months. So I'm looking for something quick, but it doesn't have to be elegant or permanent.
As Unity cannot connect to a partner Exchange server in a different forest, I see the most likely options as:
Move Unity to the new domain. Wanted to see how easy it would be to do this, as Cisco recommends that the same version of Unity be installed on a server in the new domain as is currently running the server in the old domain. I believe I have the original install disks, but can't speak to whether or not upgrades have been applied to the current (old) server since it went in 5 years ago.
Convert current subscribers into "Internet Subscribers" - This is not currently working, I believe, because Unity's partner server is the 2003 server, which lives in the same domain as the Unity server, but is also a part of the same Exchange group as the 2010 server in the new domain. When I create an "internet subscriber", I'm creating a contact with an email address that already exists in the domain.
For 1., Cisco says I have to install the same version of Unity in the new domain and then restore the database to it. Would I need to roll back items like the Engineering Special that I just installed? As long as the install disk is for 5.0(1) and the server's currently running 5.0(1), am I OK?
For 2., Is it possible to do anything with Internet subscribers? This seems like it would be easier, but also seems like it's not working because of the fact that the partner server is not recognizing addresses for the Internet subscribers as external.
Any assistance or insights would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
We can move the mailbox from Exchange 2003 to Exchange 2010 as a linked mailbox in Exchange 2010. The moved mailbox would be a disabled User Object which is linked to a separate enabled user object in an Account Forest (Exchange 2003 forest).
We can use the Prepare-MoveRequest.ps1 script in the Shell to prepare the cross-forest mailbox moves:
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee861103(v=exchg.141).aspx
Then we can create a remote legacy move request to move mailbox:
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd876952(v=exchg.141).aspx
Additionally, for more information about migration from Exchange 2003 to Exchange 2010, please read:

Exchange 2003 /2010 Co-existence plus 2010 migration to new hardware

Hi,
Here is our current scenario;
Exchange 2003/2010 co-existence. This has been running perfectly for a couple of months now.
Exchange 2003 - exch1.domain.lan
Exchange 2010 (SP3) - exch2.domain.lan (local domain name) / mail.domain.com.au (external domain name)
ActiveSync, autodiscover, legacy etc are all working. Our UAC certificate from GoDaddy has all the required names for exch2 - except it doesn't have the local domain name as they don't allow certificates with that anymore. I've configured all the required
services to be the external domain name and am running split DNS.
The first Exchange 2010 server I installed was lower spec'd and only has about 25 users on it. I now need to install a second Exchange 2010 server (exch3.domain.local), which is properly spec'd and will host the entire company. I won't be running DAG as
I need to repurpose the first Exchange 2010 server once it's removed.
My high level questions are;
1) Should I migrate everyone off Exchange 2003 onto Exchange 2010, decommission the 2003 server, and then install the second 2010 server? OR
2) Should I install the second Exchange 2010 server, migrate everyone from the first Exchange 2010 server, decommission that one, then do the migration from 2003 to 2010?
OR does it matter which way I do it?
I've read what I can find about installing the second Exchange 2010 server into the organisation. It seems to be pretty simple at first. Just install Exchange 2010 with HT, mailbox and CAS roles which will automatically configure it into the same Exchange
organisation.
1) Do I configure CAS to be externally facing right from the get go or do I do that later?
2) As soon as I install the second Exchange 2010 server, will I encounter any mail flow problems? Will mail be trying to flow out of the second Exchange 2010 server as well as the first?
In regards to SSL, so obviously the second Exchange 2010 server will have a different local domain name than the first, but ultimately, I want it to have the same external domain name, eg mail.domain.com.au. As my certificate doesn't contain any local domain
names, can I export the certificate from exch1 and import it into exch2, or should I just generate a new CSR from exch2 and get GoDaddy to reissue it?
OR should I look at creating a CAS Array from exch1 and adding exch2 to it. (I don't fully understand the workings of this at the moment).
Any guidance on the above is helpful.
Thanks.
Steve

Hi Steve I will try my best to answer each of these
My high level questions are;
1) Should I migrate everyone off Exchange 2003 onto Exchange 2010, decommission the 2003 server, and then install the second 2010 server? OR
2) Should I install the second Exchange 2010 server, migrate everyone from the first Exchange 2010 server, decommission that one, then do the migration from 2003 to 2010?
OR does it matter which way I do it?
doesn't matter at all. Since you want to move to a new hardware you can setup a new Server CASH/HUB/Mailbox. Once installed start migrating the mailboxes from Exchange 2003 to this mailbox server. This way you will not have to redo the migration from 2010
to new 2010 sever -- like you mentioned in 1) it will save you a lot of time and repeating procedure.
I've read what I can find about installing the second Exchange 2010 server into the organisation. It seems to be pretty simple at first. Just install Exchange 2010 with HT, mailbox and CAS roles which will automatically configure it into the same Exchange organisation.
1) Do I configure CAS to be externally facing right from the get go or do I do that later?
Keep your existing 2010 internet facing for now. Once you finished migrating the mailboxes then you will need to do it.
2) As soon as I install the second Exchange 2010 server, will I encounter any mail flow problems? Will mail be trying to flow out of the second Exchange 2010 server as well as the first?
Mail will not flow to 2ndry server unless you add that server as a source serve in the transport.
In regards to SSL, so obviously the second Exchange 2010 server will have a different local domain name than the first, but ultimately, I want it to have the same external domain name, eg mail.domain.com.au. As my certificate doesn't contain any local domain
names, can I export the certificate from exch1 and import it into exch2, or should I just generate a new CSR from exch2 and get GoDaddy to reissue it?
You can always export the certificate and then import it to the newly installed Exchange 2010.
OR should I look at creating a CAS Array from exch1 and adding exch2 to it. (I don't fully understand the workings of this at the moment).
You will only need to setup the CAS array if you are going to use both the server which can be done later.
Hope that help

Best way to migrate Mailboxes with all permissions Exchange 2010 to Exchange 2010--cross forest

Hi,
Due to some Exchange and Active Directory issues (with remnants of old Ex 2003 server), we are going to migrate Exchange 2010 Mailboxes and public folders to a new Exchange 2010 Sp3 server, which is created in a new AD forest.
I would really appreciate if someone can direct us to the best way to migrate mailboxes and PFs with their permissions, to new Ex 2010 SP3 server. We have around 30 mailboxes, and 300 GB of mailboxes data, and 200 GB of PFdata.
Thanks in anticipation.
Regards, David Johnson

Hello,
Firstly, you need to creat forest trust between two forests.
If you want to move AD user account and mailboxes, please use ADMT and PrepareMoveRequest script.
If you want to migrate public folder, please export data to PST file and then import pst file to new server.

Exchange 2013 Untrusted Cross-Forest Availability Intermittently Working

Goal:
I’m attempting to configure cross-forest availability for Exchange 2013 using the instructions here:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb125182%28v=exchg.150%29.aspx
At the very bottom of the page are three different methods. I have tried the first (per-user) and the third (untrusted) methods, with identical results. For various unfortunate reasons, I am unable to use the Microsoft Federated Gateway for availability
information (although that is configured in the production domain and I would use it if it were possible).
Situation:
When attempting to view availability information in either OWA or Outlook, the free/busy information typically isn’t visible. If you open and close Outlook a few times, creating meetings with the users in other domains, sometimes the other user’s information
will be visible, and sometimes it will not. When it is not, the area is filled with diagonal lines and hovering over it says “No Information”. The situation is the same in both Adatum trying to access Contoso, and in Contoso trying to access either
Adatum or Fabrikam.
I’m currently close to finishing up my third week with Microsoft Support on this issue, and am starting over with a third first level support person. They are quickly eroding what little confidence I had in them already. I’m posting here because
I’m desperate, and web searches for my errors turn up zero results. I fear this method of availability sharing doesn’t actually work correctly in Exchange 2013 as Microsoft is pushing organizations to use the Microsoft Federated Gateway, but I’d love
to heave about anyone getting this to work, or not.
Setup:
There are three separate domains I am working with (names changed to protect the innocent). Contoso.local is the production domain, containing Exchange 2007 and Exchange 2013 SP1 servers. Adatum.local is a test domain set up fresh with Exchange
2013 SP1. Fabrikam.com is a remote Exchange system that I others are connecting to without issue using Exchange 2010.
The Contoso and Adatum domain controllers are running Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 and are running at a 2008 R2 functional levels. The Exchange 2013 servers are all at SP1 (results were the same prior to SP1), and the OS is Windows Server 2012.
Contoso has two sites, connected via 10Gbps links, and ~10ms latency, with Exchange 2013 CAS and mailbox servers in both sites. Adatum has a single site, and has two CAS and two mailbox servers. Fabrikam has one internet facing server to connect
to. A handful of contacts have been created in both Contoso and Adatum for the other domains, to select to view availability.
Contoso and Adatum domains sit on different subnets, but there is no firewall or filtering between their subnets. Routing between them is completely unimpeded. The Fabrikam server sits on another network across the internet, but firewalls have
been configured and I can browse the availability website from the Contoso CAS servers.
The CAS servers were originally set up to be load balanced, but working with Microsoft they’ve had me specify a single CAS server for autodiscover/EWS/ECP/OWA/etc in both Contoso and Adatum. The number of actual users on Exchange 2013 in Contoso is
~10. In Adatum, there are only a handful of mailboxes configured. The Exchange 2007 servers in Contoso are using Public Folders for free/busy replication for other domains right now, and we don’t care at the moment if they can use the 2013 availability.
None of our testing/configurations have involved the Exchange 2007 servers. There are no SPNs configured for the other domains in AD.
Errors:
There are three basic errors that are returned in Outlook diagnostics. The first is the timeout error. For a given mailbox server, the first time it is queried for availability information for a remote domain (after some amount of time of being
idle) it might not respond for 70 seconds (actually somewhere between 69 and 70 seconds each time when viewing the IIS logs), and eventually fails with the timeout error. If it doesn’t timeout, then it will respond with the Correct Response.
Once a particular mailbox server has timed out, it will typically immediately return the first Availability Error for all subsequent calls. Less frequently, it will return Availability Error 2. If a mailbox server returns the first Availability
Error, then it will continue to return that error until it times out again or starts working. Similarly, if a mailbox server returns the second Availability Error, then it will continue to return that error until it times out again or starts working.
If an IISRESET is performed on a mailbox server, then it will either timeout at the next cross-forest availability request, or work. There is never an issue accessing availability information for users in the same domain as the request.
If the remote Exchange is in an errored state, then the response includes the error. For example, if the mailbox servers in the remote domain are turned off, and the local mailbox server that you are querying happens to be responding correctly
for the remote domain, then it will return an error about how no mailbox servers are available in adatum.local to service the request.
There are no Event Log errors that correspond to failed requests of any type. IIS logs don’t show anything beyond what is shown in the Outlook diagnostics. There are no DNS or Active Directory Replication errors in the Event Logs.

Testing Methodologies:
While it is possible to dig through Outlook diagnostics and OWA, we ended up scripting out these requests to save time. Microsoft support refuses to use the scripts, but they produce the same output that it takes them days to find in the logs, so I’ll
post them here to help anyone in the future.
Through reading the documentation and experimenting, it appears that the Exchange 2013 CAS servers really do just proxy availability requests from the client to the mailbox servers. At least by default, it seems to pick a mailbox server in the same
site, but which mailbox server in the site appears to be random. It will typically pick the same one repeatedly for a while.
The first script uses the Microsoft Exchange Web Services Managed API 2.1.
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=42022
You specify a source email address, and a target address in the remote domain, and it creates a SOAP request that it sends to a CAS server of the source email address. The CAS proxies the request to the mailbox server which either responds with a failure
or the free/busy data.
The second script takes the XML SOAP request generated by the first script, and uses that to query a mailbox server directly. That allows you to test specific mailbox servers that are working or failing, instead of randomly using whichever mailbox
server the CAS happens to select. I generated a SOAP request with the first script that I knew had some data, and then copy/pasted it into the second script to verify if data was being returned.
I’ve deleted and recreated the availability address spaces in Contoso and Adatum for each other and Fabrikam multiple times. I’ve reset the password in the OrgWideAccount in both Adatum and Contoso, and viewed the lastBadPassword attribute in both
ADs to verify it wasn’t failing authentication. (A failed authentication also generates a 401 error that is returned to the client.) I can access the availability site of the other domain using the credentials of the OrgWideAccount without any
errors ever.

Exchange 2003 - 2010. Moving public folders one at a time

Hi all,
I'm in the process of decomisioning our old Exchange 2003 server (long overdue after what has been a relativly smooth and trouble free transition to 2010). As the first step in the decomisioning process, I'm looking to move the public folders from the 2003
box to the 2010 box. From my understanding there are a couple of ways to achieve this (please correct me if I'm wrong). The first is to add the Exchange 2010 server as a new replication partner, allow for replication of the PFs to occur, and then remove the
2003 partner from the replication partnership. The other option is to use MoveAllReplicas.ps1.
I opted for the first option, but the problem I have is that the initial replication process started to generate a very large number of transaction logs on the Exchange 2010 server, to the point I was slightly conccerned I was going to run out of space on
the volume (our server is backed up nightly at which point the transaction logs are normally flushed).Whilst I know I could potentially increase the size of the volume or turn on cicular logging for the duration of the migration (neither of which is appealing
as it will involve down time), I was wondering if there was a way to move a smaller set of Public folders one at a time with a powershell command, or is it an all or nothing operation? My other option may be to replicate a small subset of folders everyday,
but that just a little painful as there are a large number of child folders with in the structure. Any other suggestions welcome!
Many thanks,
Rob

Hi,
If your Public Folder Database is large, you can use tool like Exfolders or ESM to add replica folder by folder.

Namespace for Exchange 2003 == 2010 == 2013 Migration

Hi
Hope someone can help. I am working on an Exchange 2003 to 2010 migration, which will then quickly move onto a 2010 to 2013 migration and need some clarification on the namespaces to use. I am aware that if I do not do this right at the 2003
to 2010 migration, this will cause a headache at the 2010 to 2013 migration.
Some background:
2003 Functional Level Domain - 2 x 2008 DC's
Currently users are on a 2003 exchange cluster with a mix of RPC (internal users) and RPC over HTTP connections (roaming users)
We will be installing Exchange 2010 on a single server, with CAS, HUB and Mailbox roles and no load balancer, as we will be moving quickly to 2013.
We have two Kemp load balancers ready for Exchange 2013.
Exchange 2010 is installed on a single server (exh2010.domain.local) and configured with an CAS array name (exh-cas.domain.local) which is resolvable internally only.
Currently we have multiple smtp namespaces e.g. @company.com, @company2.com.
Our main website etc is www.company.com
Our public facing services are at https://service.mycompany.com
Our 2003 RPC address is https://webmail.mycompany.com
I understand that the 2010 RPC CAS array name should be separated from the Outlook Anywhere (RPC over HTTPS) address so that when 2013 takes over the HTTPS address, the RPC connections are not broken.
Two Questions:
Do we have to use the HTTPS same namespace for 2013 as we do in 2010? Its just I would want to test the Kemp load balancers before making them live (slow careful transition), and giving them a different namespace, e.g.
https://mail.mycompany.com would allow a migration, rather then a cutover.
Can we use the *.mycompany.com address rather then the company.com address, even though we have no SMTP addresses at mycompany.com? Can autodiscover still work?
Thanks in advance for any guidance
Cheers
Steve

1. No, but you can. Exchange 2013 will proxy all services for Exchange 2010, so if you set up everything right, you should be able to simply swing the name from Exchange 2010 to 2013.
2. Your web services can be published with any domain as long as the hostname is in the certificate. Only Autodiscover needs to match the e-mail domain(s). So in your example, you could publish OWA, ECP, ActiveSync, Web Services and OAB
at owa.mycompany.com. You would need autodiscover.company.com, autodiscover.company2.com, etc., but if you don't have e-mail addresses with mycompany.com, you don't need autodiscover.mycompany.com. If all users have a company.com e-mail address,
the you only need autodiscover.company.com as long as users know to enter that e-mail address when configuring profiles on PCs or devices. If you're going to have to have Autodiscover for multiple domains, then you might consider using an SRV record
instead because it can greatly simplify your certificate requirements.

Exchange 2003/2010 Co-Existence - Distribution Group Management

We're running both exchange 2010 and Exchange 2003. I have an issue where some distribution groups were upgraded to Exchange 2010 (v14.0.100) and the manager of those lists who are on Exchange 2003 can no longer modify members, they get the error:
"Changes to the distribution list membership cannot be saved. You do not have sufficient permission to perform this operation on this object".
We've already implemented the myDistributionGroupsManagement role with success to allow Exchange 2010 users to manage their own list without allowing them to create new ones.
http://blogs.technet.com/b/exchange/archive/2009/11/18/3408844.aspx
Trying to apply the "Default Role Policy Assignement" to the exchange 2003 users returns an error. Is there any way Exchange 2003 users can manage Exchange 2010 Distribution list they owned without being upgraded to Exchange 2010? If not, is
there any way to downgrade distribution group to Exchange 2003 once they've been upgraded?

Hi,
From my lab, legacy exchange user can manage the distribution group which has been upgrade to Exchange 2010.
Exchange 2010 sp2, Exchange 2003 with sp2.
I can add/remove member for distribution group from address book via outlook.

Exchange 2003 - 2010 Local Mail box move Error

Hey everyone,
I have just finished a transition from Microsoft Exchange 2003 to 2010, and I am having problem with moving the Legacy mailboxes over.
I have managed to move all the mail boxes over bar 2, using the " New local move Request".
So the problem is just these 2 mail boxes with the same error as below.
Any Advice?

HI. I had the same problem while trying to migrate a user from Exchange 2003 to 2010. And the same error as you have appeared. I tried to skip more e-mails in case some fails but couldn't get successful.
Check if the user have accessed the mail at all on Exchange 2003 because if the user didn't accessed it it may contain many mails and when we try to migrate the mailbox, the mailbox size on Exchange 2003 may be grater than on the 2010.
On my case after many reading we just see that the user didn't access the mail at all on our Exchange 2003. (Let me know if you need to know how you can check if the user accessed the mail or not or you can just google it). So what we have done is we just
reset the user password on Active Directory. Because as you can see the error is related with Logon Failure.
This solved the issue for me. Can you check this way
Thanks

Remote 2010 - 2010 Cross-forest mailbox move timeout

I'm having a problem moving large mailboxes cross-forest. Smaller mailboxes with fewer items move successfully. I've tried the suggestions in this article
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd638094.aspx about increasing DataImportTimeout in the EWS web.config and restarting IIS on both sides, just in case.
I also found a suspicious timeout in MsexchangeMailboxReplication.exe.config that was 00:00:50 (exactly the timeout it's complaining about in the error below), but changing it to 10 minutes didn't seem to help
<customBinding>
<binding name="MrsProxyClientBinding"
receiveTimeout="00:00:50"
sendTimeout="00:00:50">
<reliableSession ordered="true" />
Below is the full text of the error I'm geting in the move request log. After this error occurs, the entire mailbox move process begins again. The strange thing is I've gotten successful moves of mailboxes up to 10Gb before, and this same error happens on a
mailbox that's 4gb.
Can someone help troubleshoot this error? It's driving me crazy.

Hi,
Please try the steps below to chang the following file:
C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\V14\Bin\MSExchangeMailboxReplication.exe.Config file contents:
--Change the following on the source side on the CAS server in the file MSExchangeMailboxReplication.exe.config
• Changed the values from 1048576 to 3048576 :-
<binding name="MrsProxyClientBinding"
receiveTimeout="00:00:50"
sendTimeout="00:00:50">
<reliableSession ordered="true" />
<textMessageEncoding>
<readerQuotas maxArrayLength="3048576"
maxStringContentLength="3048576" />
</textMessageEncoding>
<httpsTransport authenticationScheme="Negotiate"
maxReceivedMessageSize="3048576"
allowCookies="true" />
• Modify the
file MSExchangeMailboxReplication.exe.config on the target CAS server as follows:-
binding name="MrsProxyClientBinding"
receiveTimeout="00:00:50"
sendTimeout="00:00:50">
<reliableSession ordered="true" />
<textMessageEncoding>
<readerQuotas maxArrayLength="3048576"
maxStringContentLength="3048576" />
</textMessageEncoding>
<httpsTransport authenticationScheme="Negotiate"
maxReceivedMessageSize="3048576"
allowCookies="true" />
Note: make a backup before you change the value.
Restart IIS and then try again to see if this works. Hope it is helpful.

Exchange 2003/2010 2003 AD to 2008 R2 AD

Setup:
DC's
2003 - 2, 2008 R2 -1 Domain functional level is Windows 2003.
Exchange
1 - 2003 SP2 running Exchange 2003, 1 - 2008 R2 running Exchange 2010 SP3.
All mail comes in through the Exchange 2003 server.
Question:
Both of our 2003 Domain Controllers are in bad shape and need to be replaced. We are going to replace them with 2008 R2 domain controllers. Can we change the domain functional level to 2008 R2 and leave the Exchange servers
alone or do we have to remove the Exchange 2003 server as well? Thanks for any help.

Hi
I would install the new DC, let replication take place and then seize the rolls to the new server. After that once you happy with everything then decommission the 2008 server. Are you running SBS with 2003 installed? if so you will need to first move all
your mailboxes over etc. before you decommission that DC.
It shouldnt be a problem to raise your domain level to 2008 R2 at all. I would plan this as you making big changes to your environment.

Exchange 2003/2010 Coexistance - User login Issue

Hello
We have deployed Exchange 2010 SP3 in coexistance with 2003 and created connectors.
2003/2010 both Users are not able to login on 2010 OWA and error showing that username/PW is wrong although they are working on OWA 2003 perfectly.
When i add the same user to the local admin group on the Ex2010 server, it works fine with email send/receive. i am confused please suggest what i am missing....Regards
Waseem

Hello
This is the error that occured during that time.
SACL Watcher servicelet encountered an error while monitoring SACL change.
Got error 1722 opening group policy on system SERVER.DOMAIN in domain MYDOMAIN.
Event ID 6003
Source : MSExchange SACL Watcher
i am not sure if its related to this problem.
Secondly i have also tested to run the "Microsoft Exchange Active Directory Topology Service" with a new user having all the rights of exchange & AD groups but its showing giving the error that it cant run the dependency
services. currently this service is running with the local account rights.
I just add the test users (moved from 2003 and new user created in 2010) to the local admin group and it works fine, please give any idea what may be the problem in rights or something else ??

Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2010 Cross Forest

Hi
We have a scenario where we have an Exchange 2007 organization (Org A - Source) and a separate Exchange 2010 organization (Org B - Target). Both the organizations (AD Forests) have two way trusts between them.
We want to have our Exchange 2007 users have their mailboxes hosted on Exchange 2010 organization. Meaning that the user (AD) accounts of Org A will remain in Forest A but there mailboxes will be available on Exchange 2010 servers in Org B. So we don’t need
a user / group migration stuff here and mailbox data on Exchange 2007 servers is also not critical (not required to be migrated) so we will be creating new disabled accounts and mailboxes in Org B for each user in Org A and connect the mailboxes. There will
be a brief period of co-existence between two Orgs (to enable mail-flow) until all the users have their mailboxes active in Org B. Need to figure out a way to achieve this.
We are planning to follow the steps below:
Setup name resolution between the forests (although basic connectivity is there and we can ping servers in one forest using IP Addresses from other forest) –
Please suggest if this is necessary or we can get away with it?
Setup SMTP namespace sharing for Exchange 2007 SMTP Domain name
Add Exchange 2007 SMTP domain as authoritative domain to E2K10
Create EAP for new SMTP Domain
SMTP Connector Creation for Direct E-mail Routing (Co-exist) Between Forests
Create disabled Mail Enabled (not Mailbox Enabled) User or Mail Enabled Contact in Org B.
Can we use Prepare-MoveRequest.ps1 script to create these?
Once a mail enabled user / contact is created in Org B for all the users, change incoming traffic from Internet for Org A SMTP domain to hit HT server in Org B
Make changes to Exchange 2010 certificate and install new certificate
Select a batch of users every day, create new mailbox for them using scripts in Org B and delete the corresponding contact in Org B
Can someone please confirm if this is correct and point out something I am missing?
Is there any other way to achieve the same goal?
Thanks

Hi Everyone
Thanks for the inputs so far. I need to confirm some steps to establish direct email flow unless all the mailboxes are created in target organization, can somebody have a look at the steps below and confirm if they are correct or add something that
I missed here:
Setup source Exchange organization:
a) Add unique SMTP domain for source organization, like @source.local. This domain will be added to all mail enabled objects in this organization and will be used for internal routing only
     i) Add to Accepted Domains list
     ii) Create EAP to add domain to existing objects
b) Use manual means to stamp SMTP domain to objects in source organization on objects that don’t have EmailAddressPolicyEnabled set to False
c) Create Send Connector to target forest. The target domain should also have a unique e-mail address, like @target.company.com (in our case 19 SMTP domains including JUBL.COM)
     i) Include the valid SMTP domains and the unique one for internal routing
         (source.local)
     ii) Point to a smart host in the target forest
d) Set existing SMTP domain (JubilantRetail.com) as “Internal Relay Domain”. The target Exchange org will be authoritative for this domain
Setup target Exchange organization
a) Create Send Connector to unique SMTP domain in source forest. Includes shared name space (source.local) and @JubilantRetail.com
b) Set Default receiver connector, being used by source forest, to allow anonymous connections
c) Add shared SMTP domain (source.local) to Accepted Domains list as authoritative
d) Create EAPs to replicate the SMTP domains (e:g JubilantRetail.com and source.local) in the source environment
Thanks
