Core roles installed on one virtual server for roughly 200-300 mailboxes using Exchange 2010?

For a customer who is looking at keeping costs down, they are wondering whether setting up a virtualized Exchange 2010 server with all the core roles installed would be possible.  So the mailbox, CAS and hub all on one virtual slice. 
The customer has around 200-300 mailboxes. 
I know that its hard to give a guess for sizing, but I was wondering if a 4 core, 16 GB RAM build on Server 2012 would be sufficient, with the storage obvioulsy being SAN.  I know this is dependant upon mailbox size and usage, but I don't have those
numbers unfortunately.  Would the 4/16 build be sufficient?  Too much?
Any further information around this would be great.  Thanks.

    I think that I found the Sun endorsed book locations for using LDAP accounts that don't use authentication besides "crypt". I now can use an account with a "ssha" password. It can be more than 8 characters long.
    Chapter 14 System Administration Guide: Naming and Directory Services
    Read page 201 which is the pam.conf file pam_ldap setups. I edited my "/etc/pam.conf" file to reflect this
    Chapter 7 Directory Server 5.2 2005Q4 - Administration Guide
    Read page 316-318 which has a graphical technique to specify password syntax. I set it up and then tried the password by running "su - brahms". It now requires a longer password than 8 characters and it is set up to use "ssha" for that UID entry "brahms".

  • Process.conf file not found after installing Sun One Portal Server 6.0

    This extract is from the Sun One Portal Server development guide for logging error or logs in log file. This says that to generate the log, entry should be done to enable logging in process.conf file. I could not find any such file after installing Sun One Portal Server 6.0.
    Any help will be appreciated...
    Reporting Errors to the Robot Log File
    When problems occur, robot application functions should return an appropriate response status code (such as REQ_ABORTED), and they should also log an error inthe error log file.
    To use the error-logging functionality, you must include the file log.h in thesdk/robot/include/libcs directory. After you have ensured that log.h exists in the correct place, you can use the cslog_error macro to report errors. The prototype is in the following format:
    cslog_error(int n, int loglevel, char* errorMessage)
    The first parameter is not currently used (may be used in the future) You can pass
    this as any integer.
    The second parameter is the log level. When the log level is less than or equal to the log level setting in the file process.conf, the error message is written in the robot.log.

    Since removing the log settings from magnus.conf failed to fix the problem, the log settings are probably not the source of the problem.
    Did anything else - e.g. ColdFusion configuration changes - occur at about the same time you changed the log settings?

  • How do i Install the Software Update Server for Windows 7?

    How do i Install the Software Update Server for Windows 7? I get an error saying: Can't Install the Software because it is not currently available from the Software Update server.
    I downloaded the software so How do I install it?
    Do I install it all over again or when I have windows open?
    I am using Bootcamp.

    Back up your system drive completely. If you have no backup plan in place, now would be a good time to start. You can use CarbonCopyCloner to make a complete, bootable backup of your system on another drive or volume. After you have done this: download the combo update using the link supplied by Niel and run the installer.

  • Problem Re-Installing Sun One App Server 7 on Solaris 8

    I will try my best to describe my problem.
    I successfully installed Sun One App Server 7 Standard Edition on Solaris 8. It was installed on a mounted secondary hard disk. That hard disk has since gone bad. I bought a new hard disk and have that mounted.
    I want to install Sun One App Server 7 again. I am installing through the GUI, but do not the options to install the server even though it is completely gone. I guess the installer seems to think that the product is already installed, even though the previous hard disk with all of the application server files are gone. Is there any way to uninstall or remove the installed status of the application server so I can reinstall?
    Thanks.

    Thanks! I tried the prodreg tool and found the Application Server node, and clicked Uninstall. It went through an uninstall process. Even though it came back with an error, the re-install process after worked great. Thanks again.

  • How to use Powershell to set delegate for user mailbox in Exchange 2010 and Office 365

    Hello,
    Can you please tell me if I can set delegate for user mailbox in Exchange 2010 or Office 365 using Powershell?
    If I can, then how can I do that? (which Powershell commands for setting the delegate?)
    Many thanks, and have a good day!

    Hi,
    If you wanted to add a delegate to possiblly a large number of users or you do this during mailbox provisioning. So the following script will use
    impersonation to access another users mailbox and add a delegate.
    $mbtoDelegate = "[email protected]"
    $delegatetoAdd = "[email protected]"
    $dllpath = "C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange\Web Services\1.0\Microsoft.Exchange.WebServices.dll"
    [void][Reflection.Assembly]::LoadFile($dllpath)
    $service = new-object Microsoft.Exchange.WebServices.Data.ExchangeService([Microsoft.Exchange.WebServices.Data.ExchangeVersion]::Exchange2007_SP1)
    $windowsIdentity = [System.Security.Principal.WindowsIdentity]::GetCurrent()
    $sidbind = "LDAP://<SID=" + $windowsIdentity.user.Value.ToString() + ">"
    $aceuser = [ADSI]$sidbind
    $service.AutodiscoverUrl($aceuser.mail.ToString())
    $service.ImpersonatedUserId = new-object Microsoft.Exchange.WebServices.Data.ImpersonatedUserId([Microsoft.Exchange.WebServices.Data.ConnectingIdType]::SmtpAddress,
    $mbtoDelegate);
    $mbMailbox = new-object Microsoft.Exchange.WebServices.Data.Mailbox($mbtoDelegate)
    $dgUser = new-object Microsoft.Exchange.WebServices.Data.DelegateUser($delegatetoAdd)
    $dgUser.ViewPrivateItems = $false
    $dgUser.ReceiveCopiesOfMeetingMessages = $false
    $dgUser.Permissions.CalendarFolderPermissionLevel = [Microsoft.Exchange.WebServices.Data.DelegateFolderPermissionLevel]::Editor
    $dgUser.Permissions.InboxFolderPermissionLevel = [Microsoft.Exchange.WebServices.Data.DelegateFolderPermissionLevel]::Reviewer
    $dgArray = new-object Microsoft.Exchange.WebServices.Data.DelegateUser[] 1
    $dgArray[0] = $dgUser
    $service.AddDelegates($mbMailbox, [Microsoft.Exchange.WebServices.Data.MeetingRequestsDeliveryScope]::DelegatesAndMe, $dgArray);
    Hope this helps.

    Hope, you are considering Sun Web Server 6.1 (formerly known as iPlanet Enterprise Server ) for this task. Yes, it is possible to host multiple instances of web server on a same machine.
    you can create multiple instances using our GUI. here is the pointer to our docs on how to do this - http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/819-6512/6n8h7gq1n?a=view#bhabr
    If you are willing to give Sun Java System Web Server 7 (our latest release - http://www.sun.com/webserver) , then you can do this by CLI as well.
    sun one portal server 3.0 - is a very old release. Are you sure, is this what you want to run ?
    hope this helps

    I've imported this appliance (and others) on Windows 7 32-bit on a Lenovo W500, on an iMac, and on a MacBook. The one error you should encounter during the "import appliance" step is a path error related to shared folder (the canned/hard-coded path in the ovf file points to a place that is not likely to exist on your computer, so just comment out the D:\TEMP\Host path, or make it for that matter).
    <!--SharedFolders-->
    <!--SharedFolder name="Host" hostPath="D:\TEMP\Host" writable="false" autoMount="true"/ -->
    <!-- /SharedFolders-->
    You can alter system set memory_target=300M scope=both and set your VM memory to 2.5GB and everything will run fine (using the vmctl script to start up what's needed). The "1" option is all that is needed for the tutorial shown in the documentation. If you run the admin server, you will see things run a good bit slower. Part of the tutorial assumes you know about UCM and how to take the UCM content in the sample files and upload those into the repository. You can delete the file already loaded and then do a single file upload to "re-load" the various directories/folders for the menu/home/etc. Upload the png and other files into the same folder (menu.html, menuBanner.png, etc. all go into the same Menu folder). It's not worth the time to set the bulk upload because you have to go out into UCM and dig around the admin settings, stop/restart, and so on. You can also use the contentadmin user (welcome1) to do the file upload.

  • Server 2012 Hyper-V locks up Virtual Server for no reason.

    Server 2012 Hyper-V locks up virtual servers for no reason.
    This is a production server. I began building this server in February. I installed the server in November. 2012 server R1 is full of bugs!
    First who was the rocket scientist that decided that the TURN OFF function in Hyper-V means "Please turn off when the
    F*#@$*% you feel like it"? Idiots!
    I have a Supermicro server with perfect memory (for those who want to blame this on memory).
    It is running 12 Virtual Servers. Every morning, at a random time, at least 1 of the servers lock up solid. Sometimes as many as 5 decide that for no reason they all want to lock up. The servers that lock up may be 1 or more: a database server, a terminal
    server, an exchange server, a Windows 8.1 Ent VDI server, an IIS server, and or AD server. All 2012 R1.
    They are running all current Microsoft and other vendor patches and hardware updates.
    The only common denominator is the Hyper-V server.
    I cannot shut them down using the Hyper-V manager. I cannot turn them off. I have a hundred users standing by while I nicely ask them to turn off. The VM will turn off after 20 minutes and a lot of gentle coaxing.
    I cannot Kill the vmwp.exe process associated with the locked Virtual Machine.
    No .DMP are created. No events in the event viewers. No reason at all. When they restart, there is no indication of a problem.
    I ran two VMWP dumps and posted it here.
    www.a1bcs.com/hyper-vlockup.zipx
    Does anyone know why these are locking up?
    Thanks in advance for any help.
    Robert

    I'm not positive of the cause but I was able to stop the problems.
    It turned out that Network Load Balancing (NLB) between the two terminal servers and another between the two gateways was causing the lockups.
    This is a normal configuration and it should work. Especially since Microsoft has seen fit to remove the DRAIN USERS function from RDP as well as the LOCK OUT till next reboot function. JUST FYI these functions are still available at a DOS prompt
    by using the CHGLOGON command. But still the NLB also provides these functions.
    Anyhow, once I removed the NLB I haven't had the lockups anymore.
    That doesn't however change the fact that TURN OFF should mean TURN OFF not turn off please!
    Thanks again,
    Robert

    IIRC this file, sasl32.dll, should get installed onto %WINDIR%\system32 when you install DS5.2 windows version.
    You may run WinZIP and File/Open "d52diu.zip" (DS5.2 zip image) and look for "nsbasesys.zip", double click to Open it and you should find "sasl32.dll" there.

    You can check out this site right [here|http://www.error1316.com/]. It could also be that you aren't the domain administrator as well. Try running it as an Administrator and see if that works before you try anything on the link that I gave you.

  • Problems while installing Sun ONE Directory Server.

    Hi all,
    I'm a newbie to LDAP amd my problem is -
    When I started Installing SunONE DS on machine first time, at the end of the installation, it thrown an error message.
    "The program cant start because nss3.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem."
    Later, I copied nss3.dll file to "C:\Windows\System32" and then started the installation then it thrown error again as follows -
    "Configuration of the Directory Server failed.

    What is the reason behind this?

    Bingo, It worked. Yup, I'm using SODS 5.2, I have copied all .dll files from nsbasesystem.zip to "C:\Windows\System32".
    but now the problem is -
    Sun One Directory server service is running
    but
    Sun ONE Administration server process is not running
    I have tried to start it manually but it didn't worked. It initiates the starting of process and then suddenly shows error message that
