AD RMS Prelicensing Agent on Exchange side. Pure prelicensing testing.

Hello everybody!
My SCOM server reports about prelicensing issue, and it's time for me to understand what is this actually. Now it is clear that Exchange server acquire Use License on behalf of end-user at the middle of delivering way. So, end-user don't really need anymore
to contact RMS server to acquire Use Licence, it was ebeded to email. Also clear that this feature is active as soon as I activated InternalLicensing. 
I did Test-IRMConfiguration -Sender xxxx -Recipient xxxx and commandlet said that prelicense succesfully was acquired from licensing servers for Recipient. So, from servers point of view everything works perfect. 
Correct me if I wrong, but as I understood, prelicensing feature allows repicient to open IRM protected content (email and attachment) even being offline.
Non-autoritative Prove . For my understanding "offline" means that end-user (recipient) has no
access to URLs of RMS servers. It is actually easily done in test environment by modifying hosts file and loop RMS URLs to 127.0.0.1. 
So, I sent from User1 to User2 email with attachment and protected it with custom RMS template. 
User2 has no access to RMS server (RMS activation was done before, CLC, RAC - everything in a folder). User2 opens Outlook, and when it tries to open protected email, system says that it require to reach RMS server to acquire Use License to open protected
content. Hey, but what about prelicensing? 
User1 sends to User2 email with attachment and ptorects them with "Do not forward" template. User2 can open content even being offline. To tell the truth this mystery case with "Do not forward" template is out of scope of my interest,
since this template is not going to be a part of production deployment. 
What do I do wrong? Does anybody test RMS pure prelicensing feature? 
Thanks. 

Hi,
I have some progress in my testing: prelicensing works for message body and attachment(s).
But here I'd like to admit several importan things: 
1. Prelicensing works only in case if Author uses template with unchecked box
"Require a new license every time content is consumed (disable client-side caching)". 
2. Prelicensing works only if "Don't Forward" template in use, or any
custom template from
Root Cluster (but not from Licensing Only cluster). 
3. I couldn't reproduce your case when you can open message body, but can't open protected attachment. 
Answers: 
1. Get-RMSTemplate commandlet brings template
from Root Cluster only (+Don't Forward), but nothint from Licensing only cluster. Do you have the same results? Looks like Exchange knows nothing about Licensing Only cluster. Is it true, it is by design?
2. Test-IRMConfiguration works good. I set -Sender and
-Recipient parametrs. 
Acquiring Prelicense for '<recipient@>' from RMS Licensing Uri (https://<rms_root_cluster_URL>/_wmcs/licensing) ...
    - PASS: Prelicense acquired.
OVERALL RESULT: PASS
As you see RMS Root cluster was in use during the test , but nothing about licensing only cluster.
What happens when Sender sends email which protected within template from  Licensing Only cluster? Prelicensing Agent MUST reach Licensing only cluster URL to obtain valid EUL. The test above doesn't cover this case.
Test-IRMconfiguration confirms actually the same what I had got within tests: prelicensing works in case of using template from Root Cluster. 
Do I need to do some extra tricks to force Exchange "see" licensing only cluster (templates)?
So, does prelicensing work for custom templates from Licensing Only cluster? Should these templates from Licensing only cluster be enumerated by using Get-RMStemplate? 
Profile Signature?

  • Transport agent for Exchange 2013

    Hello!
    I write transport agent for Exchange 2013 and I have two questions:
    1. How I can determine is AD OU of recipient different from OU of sender?
    2. How I can change routing of message from internal to external for such recipient.
    Thanks in advance

    1. You can't get that information from within a Transport Agent directly so you need to either use LDAP to lookup the sender (which from a performance point of view isn't a wonderful idea) or some form of cache etc.
    2. You can use a routing override to do this see
    http://blogs.technet.com/b/appssrv/archive/2009/08/26/how-to-control-routing-from-your-own-routing-agent.aspx for an example

  • Agent to run 3-rd party tests is stopped

    Hi All,
    I'm evaluating OATS 9.2 as test case management system what could allow to run 3-rd party tests.
    But when I'm running bat-file agent stops execution after 30 seconds. Exit code = 0. No errors are reported.
    Is it some agent setting that includes timeout of test run?
    There are very few documentation on 3-rd party tests execution and I'm not able to find this setting myself.
    Thank you in advance.

    I assume your using OTM for case management. Did you already go through the OTM Userguide paragraph 5.12.4 and 5.12.5?
    What I know, not from experience, is that the 3th party tests need to be packaged as batch file. The agent just executes the batch and a batch window should open showing you the same output as what you would get when starting the batch file manually. For trouble shooting:
    Perform the following steps if the third party test fails to run on the remote machine:
    1. Make sure that the Oracle Load Testing Agent Service is running on the remote machine.
    2. Check the <installdir>\logs\agentmanager.log file on the remote machine to see if the agent service started correctly.
    3. Test the communication port between Agent and Oracle Test Manager.
    4. Check the agent manager log file to verify that the JavaAgent.exe was run when the third party test was started. It is possible to run the same JavaAgent.exe command line specified in the agentmanager.log file from a DOS console. Verify that the command line argument for the third party test package URL is correct. If there is no indication that a Java Agent startup request was issued, verify the Agent version and check the Oracle Test Manager server log.
    5. If it looks like the Java Agent was started with the correct arguments, look in the remote machine's <installdir>\logs\agentmananger.log file for any exceptions. It may help to set the oracle.oats logging category in <installdir>\agent\log4jJavaAgentDebug.xml file to DEBUG. This will show more useful third party test execution details. The third party test Java Agent posts its results over HTTP to a servlet running on the Oracle Test Manager server.
    6. If the agent.log file shows that the third party test ran and that the results were reported successfully to Oracle Test Manager, then the problem is on the Oracle Test Manager server side. Look in the Oracle Test Manager server log for exceptions.

    Hi Kanchan,
    So on each computer, you create a local user account that is a member of the Administrators group, and use the same account and password on each machine(controller and Agent), am I right?
    Could you enable the detailed log message?

  • Diagnostics Agent installation - which SID for the systems in your landscap

    Hi,
    I have a question in regads to installing the Diagnostics Agent on the systems in your landscape: ie. I want to install the Diagnostics Agent on all systems, and SAP suggests the system ID "DAA" as standard sid. From my experience there are no errors or exceptions when I use the system id DAA for a few or all systems.
    However, will I run into problems later on (for example, when using root cause analysis, etc.)? Can I use the standard system id DAA for several systems/hosts, or should I use a seperate system ID (DAA, DAB, DAC, etc.) for each Diagnostics Agent?
    thanks,
    Walter

    Hi,
    We have used same SIDs (the default DAA) for a few hosts in our landscape and this did not cause a problem.
    But in my opinion best to use DAA, DAB, DAC etc in order to remove any room for confusion for both the humans and the systems

  • Exchange Server 2010 SP3 test environment - email flow to/from internet

    Today I set up test environment for Exchange Server 2010 SP3 - domain controller running Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1, Exchange Server 2010 SP3 on Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 and client computer running Windows 7 Pro SP1 x64 with Outlook Pro 2010 x64. These
    machines are VMs on vSphere 5.0 cluster made of 4 esxi 5.0 hosts.
    I have three years of experience in working with Exchange Server 2010 in my production environment but until recently I have not had enough resources to build a test environment. Does "testing" Exchange Server 2010 infrastructure have
    a real life purpose considering the fact that only internal email flow is possible since authoritative SMTP accepted domain is not hosted anywhere thus not visible to outside world. This limited email flow combined with absence of possibility to test
    ActiveSync, Outlook Anywhere, OWA from WAN, . . . really hurt and make Exchange Server rare technology that can not be tested completely before introducing something new into the production. Services that are not possible to test from the outside world are
    useless and whole point of Exchange-like technologies is availability from anywhere and from whatever device.

    I set up Internet Send Connector (by default this type of send connector uses DNS MX records to route email automatically). Having sent an email to my gmail account I did not receive it and in transport logs I saw that mx record was found successfully
    but there is the following line:
    2014-08-05T20:39:51.942Z,Internet Connector,08D17F000FE36010,1,,2a00:1450:4013:c01::1b:25,*,,"Failed to connect. Error Code: 10051, Error Message: A socket operation was attempted to an unreachable network 2a00:1450:4013:c01::1b:25"
    I tried also to send an email to my production email address (we have Symantec Messaging Gateway which is used as a smart host (antispam,antimalware,content filter appliance)) but then error is:
    2014-08-05T20:50:08.395Z,Internet Connector,08D17F000FE36019,1,,91.238.7.10:25,*,,"Failed to connect. Error Code: 10061, Error Message: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it 91.238.7.10:25"
    Telnet from test exchange to 91.238.7.10 on port 25 also is not working.

  • Agent Weightage in VSTS for Load test

    Hi,
    1- Could you let us know the Default Weightage assigned to Agents by Controller.
    2- Could you please let us know if the assumption made in the below scenario is correct-
    Scenario - We need to run a Load test by simulating the
    Total load of 100 users, and we have total 5 Agents assigned to 1 Controller. Now, suppose if the default weightage of Each agent is 100. So Does it mean that EACH agent will generate the 100 users load and Hence, making the Total
    load of 500 users ? 
    3- How we should configure the Agents to MEET the TOTAL load as required.
    Thanks, Anoop Singh

    See https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms243155.aspx and
    https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd695837.aspx which explain that user load and weighting are separate. The user load is as given in the scenario(s). The weighting says how to distribute
    those users across the agents. The weights do not need to add up to any specific value, they are just used as ratios.

  • Server Side Load Balancing Testing

    Hi,
    Can any one tell me about any test case for server side load balancing in an 11.1.0.7 RAC?
    I have a 2 nodes RAC with local_listener and remote_listener set properly (for server side load balancing). For testing, i have create a TNS at my client side which points to only one node of RAC (a single ADDRESS entry pointing to node 1 of my RAC). So, from this client, when ever i connect, it always connects me to the node 1 which i have mentioned in the TNS. Does it mean that server side load balancing works in conjunction with client side load balancing only and i should add ADDRESS entry in my TNS for the second node also? If yes, then how can i create a test case to check server side load balancing?
    Thanks
    Salman

    Thanks Rajeysh but i already have seen these documents after "googling" about server side load balancing but these documents don't give my any idea for testing the server side load balancing. My goal is actually testing the following scenario
    Creating a TNS entry to connect to a RAC database (with server side load balancing enabled) by using a single ADDRESS line in TNS which points to node1 to connect to service on node 1 (service_name is set to same value on all the nodes).
    Now, if i invoke 10 SQLPLUS windows to connect to the RAC database using this TNS, it always connects me to instance 1 running on node 1, where is server side load automatic load balancing? Why new sessions are not being directed to some other instance and why every time i always connect to instance 1?

  • Agent computer gets locked after each test codedui

    So it is known that you need to have autologin for the codedui to work on your agents when running from mtm.
    I have autologin on two of my agents, one agent has windows 7 and one has windows 8.1
    And the agent with windows 8.1 is a real pain. Each time a test fail and I run the test again I get:
    Automation engine is unable to playback the test because it is not able to interact with the desktop.  This could happen if the computer running the test is locked or it’s remote session window is minimized.
    I have to go in manually and start cmd and writhe shutdown /r and then it works again.
    Is there any workaround for this? I dont get the problem with the agent with windows 7

    Hi Fredrik,
    I can reproduce that issues too with windows 8.1 environment even though I enabled the auto log on.
    The workaround is that we could connect to the agent machine through hyper-v or lab environment viewer to keep the desktop session active.
