Migrate Exchange Server 2010 Public Folder shared calendars to Exchange Server 2013

Dear All,
I have an question about calendars under public folder migrating to new exchange server 2013. When completed the PF migration progress, will it also migrate calendars under sub-folder under PF to new PF mailbox?
For example: in exchange 2010 PF:
In exchange 2013
\Public Folder\sales\A1_calendar
--->
\ Public Folder\sales\A2_calendar
---> ?
\Public Folder\sales\A3_calendar
---> ?
\Public Folder\sales\A4_calendar
---> ?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Willis Wong

Hi Willis,
This forum is for general questions and feedback related to Outlook. Since your question is more related to Exchange server, I'd recommend you post a new question in the Exchange forum for further assistance:

Exchange Server 2013 and Remote Access VPN on a single server running Windows Server 2012?

Just by way of background, I have been installing and administering network servers, e-mail systems, VPN servers, and the like for many years. However, my involvement with Exchange and Windows Server has been mostly on the forensics and data recovery
level, or as a (sophisticated) user. I have never tried to deploy either from scratch before. My deployment experiences have been mostly with Linux in recent years, and with small private or personal "servers" running such cutting edge
software as Windows XP back when it was new. And even NetWare once.
When a client asked me if I could set up a server for his business, running Exchange Server (since they really want Outlook with all of its bells and whistles to work, particularly calendars) and providing VPN access for a shared file store, I figured it
could not be too difficult given that its a small business, with only a few users, and nothing sophisticated in the way of requirements. For reasons that don't bear explaining here, he was not willing to use a vendor hosting Exchange services or cloud
storage. There is no internal network behind the server; it is intended to be a stand-alone server, hanging off a static IP address on the Internet, providing the entirely mobile work-force of about 10 people with Exchange-hosted e-mail for their computers
and phones, a secure file store, and not much else. If Exchange didn't need it, I would not need to install Active Directory, for example. We have no direct need for its services.
So I did the research and it appears, more by implication than outright assertion, that I should be able to run Windows Server 2012 with Exchange Server 2013 on a server that also hosts Remote Access (VPN only) and does nothing else. And it appears
I ought to be able to do it without virtualizing any of it. However, I have spent the last three or four days fighting one mysterious issue after another. I had Remote Access VPN working and fairly stable very quickly (although it takes a very
long time to become available after the server boots), and it has mostly remained reliable throughout although at times while installing Exchange it seems to have dropped out on me. But I've always been able to get it back after scrounging through the
logs to find out what is bothering it. I have occasionally, for a few minutes at a time, had Exchange Server willing to do everything it should do (although not always everything at the same time). At one point I even received a number of e-mails
on my BlackBerry that had been sent to my test account on the Exchange Server, and was able to send an e-mail from my BlackBerry to an outside account.
But then Exchange Server just stopped. There are messages stuck in the queues, among other issues, but the Exchange Administration Center refuses now to display anything (after I enter my Administrator password, I just get a blank screen, whether on
the server or remotely).
So, I am trying to avoid bothering all of you any more than I have to, but let me just begin with the basic question posed in the title: Can I run Exchange Server (and therefore Active Directory and all of its components) and Remote Access (VPN only) on
a single Windows Server 2012 server? And if so, do I have to run virtual machines (which will require adding more memory to the server, since I did not plan for it when I purchased it)? If it can be done, can anyone provide any pointers on what
the pitfalls are that may be causing my problems? I am happy to provide whatever additional information anyone might like to help figure it out.
Thanks!

An old thread but I ran into this issue and thought I share my solution since I ran into the same issue. Configuring VPN removes the HTTPS 443 binding on the Default Site in IIS for some strange reason; just go and editing the bindings, add HTTPS and things
should be back to normal.

Microsoft Exchange Server 2013 Cumulative Update 7 Setup - Active Directory Topology service on server 'TopologyClientTcpEndpoint (localhost)' returned an error - Set-SharedConfigDC

What am I trying to do?
I have tried installing Microsoft Exchange Server 2013 Cumulative Update 7 Setup on a fresh install of Windows Server 2012 R2 but it gets stuck when running the setup exe on Step 8 of 14 “Mailbox Transport Service” I have included full
error logs at the bottom of the page but the basics are in order it will throw which loop around are:

Exchange is currently running in the envirmonet on 2010 Sp3 I am installing 2013 CU7 fresh so I can migrate the databases over.
What am I running?
2 X DC on domain and forest functional level 2008R2 both writable
1 X fresh install of Windows 2012 R2 which is domain joined
What have I tried?
Checked Ipv6 is enabled on all DC NICS and Existing Exchange Servers
Rebooted every server
Run setup as Administrator
My account is part of the domain Enterprise Admin group
Tried adding "Exchange Server" or "Exchange Enterprise Servers" to the group policy and doing the relevant gpupdate /force and reboot :
Computer Configuration Windows Settings
Security Settings + Local Policies
User Rights Assignment Mange auditing and security log
Turned off firewall on DC and Exchange Server even stopped the service
Turned off all AV on the DC and Exchange Server
Checked I could telnet to global catalog servers on port 3268 which I can
Checked the global catalog records existed in DNS which they all do
Done the obvious ping tests all round which confirms connectivity
Schema has been prepared using appropriate commands before running the setup exe
setup.exe /PrepareSchema /IacceptExchangeServerLicenseTerms
Making sure the following path has full permissions:
EXCHANGE14:\Current\Release\Shared\Datacenter\Setup
Restarted Microsoft Exchange Active Directory Topology service
DcDiag all looks good
What have I noticed that is suspicious?
Microsoft Exchange Transport service will not start even though both of its dependences services have started:
Microsoft Filtering Management Service
Microsoft Exchange Active Directory Topology Service
It will eventually error with
“Windows could not start the Microsoft Exchange Transport Service on local computer
Error 1053: This Service did not respond to the start of control request in a timely fashion”
This error is from the GUI wizard itself:

Exchange Server 2013 SP1 Standard: Installation failing can't progress

I'm trying to install Exchange Server 2013 and I keep getting this error and I am unable to progress, I can't find any support on the issue and frankly I don't want to/can't afford to spend $500 to ask Microsoft for technical support (what kind of racket
do they think they're running?).
The error message:
Error:
The following error was generated when "$error.Clear();
New-PushNotificationsVirtualDirectory -Role Mailbox -DomainController $RoleDomainController;
" was run: "The Active Directory object for virtual directory 'IIS://SVR02.OFFICE.local/W3SVC/24/ROOT/PushNotifications' on 'SVR02' could not be created. This might be because the object already exists in Active Directory. Remove the object from Active Directory, then re-create it.".
Yet, I see no PushNotifications virtual directory or anything remotely related to that on IIS or in the inetpub folders and files. If I try to resume the set-up after this error I get:
Error:
The following error was generated when "$error.Clear();
New-PushNotificationsVirtualDirectory -Role Mailbox -DomainController $RoleDomainController;

And I have to remove this config using ADSI Edit, which just returns me to the first error.

Exchange Server 2013 - Sizing

Can some please provide me Exchange server 2013 sizing for 180 Mailbox users with mailbox profile size 10 GB With 1 DAG with two mailbox servers.
Please provide for Exchange Server in Virtual environment.
I have already created a setup on Environment going through test mode.
Existing Environment
2 X CAS servers - 2 Core - 4 GB Memory - 500 GB Hard disk space
2 X Mailbox Server - 2 Core - 12 GB Memory - 1.5 TB disk space
Theses servers are build on VMWare hosted on ESX server
Please provide your feedback for best practice and solution to support 180 Mailbox profile with Mailbox size limit 10 GB
Thanks in adavance

Hi Benhur,
we have over one thousand mailboxes ( inc. room,shared,calendar and so on).We only have 2 servers With Mailbox and CAS role.No need to seperate those roles if you really dont have to.2013 CAs only Proxy/redirect requests and nothing is stored (other that
daily performance log and iis log).C: drive for Exchange install i recomend 70gb on each server.
When it comes to mailbox database,are you planning to use Public folders?In 2013 Public folders can be stored on seperate databases.
Also it is not recomended to have Exchange and mailbox database on same physical disk,so you should seperate those out and expand over time without taking Down the server.
In easy sample the server can look like this:
C: Install Exchange 70GB
D: Database files 1GB ( here you map multiple databases in different folders,so it look like D:\DB01,D:\DB02,D:\DB03 and so on.And each folder is an own 300 gb disk that you Mount into one of these folders at time.Path and name have to be identical on both
servers when setting up DAG.)
E: Log files 1GB ( here you map multiple databases in different folders,so it look like E:\LOG01,E:\LOG02,E:\LOG03 and so on.And each folder is its own 70 gb disk that you Mount into one of these folders at time.Path and name have to be identical on
both servers when setting up DAG.)
Approx 300GB each database and 70 gb each log(for each database) should be fine.
10gb database pr user can cause performance issue if they are working online (Citrix or other apps),if cache locally it might take time if they are not inside worknetwork.
Dont forget that you should also have your own replication network or it will consume bandwidth when you move over multiple users to different databases.
Hope this helps!

Exchange Server 2013 Hyper-V vs Physical Server & SMB3.0 vs SAN

Looking for advise on installing Exchange Server 2013 in a virtual (Hyper-V) environment or dedicated physical server installation. Also, when setting up the data storage, what's the best practices for using SMB3.0 vs direct storage SAN. We're
leaning to shared storage using SMB3.0 rather the SAN (very costly) and can use a dedicated 2012 Server with 4TB of storage (RAID 10) with (shares).
Thank you,
William

Have you tried Storage Calculator? search it on TechNet site an input the values .. If you want me to give your the specs then I'd ask
Total Send/Receive Capability / Mailbox / Day
Average Message Size (KB)
Mailbox Size Limit (MB)
Personal Archive Mailbox Size Limit (MB
If you already have an existing Exchange 2010/2007 then you can also calculate the above input.
Let me know ..

Hi Rawa Zangana,
According to the error message, it seems that the Global Catalog not reachable from DC.
Please perform following steps.
1. Port 3268 listened on DC.
2. Enable Global Catalog role on all DCs.
3. Restart Exchange Server 2013 CU5.
4. Check whether Event 2080 found on all DCs, Event 2080 means that AD connectivity works fine.
5. Repeat CU7 installation.
Thanks

Help with Moving Emails from Exchange Server 2013

Hi Team,
Help, I need a solution on how to copy incoming and outgoing emails together with their attachments and was hoping someone could help with a solution I need to find for this problem.
1) I have a need to copy all incoming and outgoing emails & attachments from Exchange Server 2013 mailboxes on a daily basis, so they can be archived into an external 3rd party database overnight.
I believe that the first step is that I can set up another Exchange mailbox, through Journaling to receive these emails.
Is there any way that these emails can then be moved direct from the Journaling mailbox that I have created, to a shared folder on the network? If so what format would they be sent out as e.g. .msg, .ems and what is the process?
Failing that, could they be sent to an Outlook client (not another Exchange mailbox) on the network and stored in a .pst file? (I have a program that will export them from .pst)
I would really appreciate any assistance that you can provide in this matter.
Regards, Greg.

Hi,
You can set auto-forward on journaling mailbox and auto-forward emails to another mailbox. Why don’t directly archive the emails from the journaling mailbox “an external
3rd party database”.
Thanks,
Simon Wu

Using Outlook Web App Web Parts in Exchange Server 2013 - OWA ? Possible?

Using Outlook Web App Web Parts in Exchange Server 2013 - OWA ? Possible?
We recently upgraded from Exchange 2010 to Exchange 2013.
The links that used OWA Web parts have completely stopped working and generate the " :( something went wrong contact your help desk" screen for domain Authenticated users other than myself. The links accessed content of a Shared Account of which
I am an owner and can set the necessary permissions using the Outlook 2013 client.
Using the example from the link provided below we were able to provide calendar access to all authenticated users in our area. The link for calendar still works for me but for noone else. Additionally, all navigation menus are missing when I use this link.
<server>/owa/<SMTP address>/?cmd=contents&module=calendar&view=weekly name
Another crafted link provided web access to our group's task list. This has completely stopped working for anyone including myself. However, when I use "open another mailbox" I am able to navigate to the needed pages.
<server name>/owa/<SMTP address>/?cmd=contents&module=tasks
These links were crafted using advice provided from this provided link.
technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb232199(v=exchg.141).aspx
Is it still possible to use Outlook Web App Web Parts in Exchange Server 2013 - OWA?
Or
Is this a misconfiguration of some sort?
My IT support has given up and closed out the ticket stating that maybe Microsoft will fix this someday...

Hello,
At present, there is no official article to verify whether we can use Outlook Web App Web Parts in Exchange Server 2013. In exchange online, the Outlook Web App Parts is supported.

Hi, you said this feature is supported in Exchange Online (I understand you're referring to Office 365). Can you please point me to some documentation as I was trying to use it with my E3 account and it doesn't seem to work?
What I'm trying to acomplish is something similar to our old URL (Exchange 2010) in Office 365:
https://ourserver.mydomain.com/owa/[email protected]/?cmd=contents&module=calendar&view=monthly
The best I can do in Office 365 is this:
https://outlook.com/owa/mydomain.com/[email protected]/#path=/calendar
But it's clearly not the same and Office 365 ignores all the information I add to the URL. I would greatly appreciate something in the line of the document referred by 'MarquetteENG' (technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb232199(v=exchg.141).aspx)
Thanks.

Resolved ! :)
Root Cause: The user account I was using had all the required privileges for Exchange Installation but was not having access to edit the registry of the server. Enable access to registry edit tools and you are good to go.
As an alternate you can also try installing using Domain Administrator account if in case there is an IT Policy constraint in the former method.
Thanks to all.

1) Disable TCPChimney and RSS on CAS and Mailbox Servers by running below commands
netsh int tcp set global chimney=disabled
netsh int tcp set global rss=disabled
2) Disable unwanted Add-Ins in outlook that may open many sessions
3) If above steps doesnt resolve, you can delete existing outlook profile and create new Outlook online profile

How can I clone a completed Exchange Server 2013 in a Lab Enviroment?

I was having great time with my Exchange Server 2013 until I tried to clone it to avoid fresh installation of another Exchange 2013 server. Steps taken
(1)Clone the Exchange1 and turn it off
(2) Brought the Clone Exchange2, renamed it, change the IP configurations,
(3) Re-ran the ADprep/Doamin prep
(4) Checked the ASDIedit to verify the Schema/configuration in AD
(5) Restarted I and was able to logon to the Exchange2
(6) Brought up the Exchange1, but unable to logon because the name was no longer in AD database
What I did to fix this:
(7) Rejoin the Exchange1 to the domain - and was able to logon
(8) Unable to access ECP or OWA of any of the two servers.
(9) Errors received - Fix the configuration file of the application
My Question - How to I fix the configuration file as suggested (via powershell or GUI or ASDIedit.msc)?

Unless you are cloning an entire environment, and then bringing it up in a seperate isolated environment, it is not supported to simply clone an Exchange Server, and then bring it online in an existing environment and rename it to save on setup and configuration
time.
You can script the setup and configuration of Exchange through Powershell, either with scripts or with another product controlling it - something like
System Center Orchastrator.
From the script side of things there are many available on peoples blogs. Check
here.
Edit: and to be clear, there is no need to re-run any prep tasks against Active Directory when installing a new Exchange Server, unless you are installing into a new domain as part of your Forest.
