Exchange 2010 server (Mail,HUB and CAS) installation in new site.

We are planned to install Exchange 2010 servers(MAIL,HUB and CAS) server in new Active director site in existing exchange organization.
Kindly share best practice link for exchange server installation in new site.

The best practice for installing into a new Active Directory site is the same as installing into a new organization, except you don't need to prepare the organization or domains (unless you are also installing into a new domain that hasn't been prepared).
Install the CAS then hub, then mailbox roles, or install a multi-role server, then define your CAS Array name and IP address, and set your CAS behind a load balancer (if needed). Add your external certificate to both the CAS and the load balancer (and the
hub if you use TLS for mail transfer), and you should be golden. Also, if you intend to proxy your CAS connections, here's a link that may help:

Redundant Hub and CAS roles for exchange server

Hello ,
currently we have 2 mailbox servers , 1 DAG server and 1 HUB,CAS server ( hub and cas roles in same server )
i am looking to have a backup server incase the hub CAS server goes down .. or to have a redundant server for HUBCAS incase if it goes down the other one will go up and the users will use the second one automatically
how can i achieve that ?
appreciated your help

Hello,
If you use exchange 2010 server, I recommend you deploy multiple CAS servers as member of CAS array.
As your requirement, you need to deploy CAS NLB, the failover will occurs automatically.
Here is an article for your reference.

Unable to SEND mail using Activesync in Exchange 2010 server on iPhone or Windows Mobile 6.1

Hi All,
We've been setting up a new SBS 2011 server for a client this week. Everything is working, except the staff have 4 x iPhones to connect with Exchange ActiveSync.
There are 2 x iPhone 4's and 2 x iPhone 3Gs's. We can setup the Exchange accounts on each of the phones and they are all able to sync mail and calender etc with the server.
The problem we have is when any of them try to send mail from the phone, it gives an error : "Cannot Send Mail - An error occurred while delivering this message" and it sits in the outbox on the phone.
The newsgroups and forums are littered with people having issues with IOS4 and Exchange 2010 but most of these are from June-August 2010 when IOS4 version was around 4.00 or 4.01
A lot of these people had iPhone 3 handsets running with IOS 3.1.3 which worked with Exchange 2010 but when they upgraded to IOS 4, they had this problem sending mail.
It seems that for most of them, the fix came in the form of IOS version 4.1 which fixed the send issue for them.
We have a variety of Hansets and IOS versions (including an iPhone 3Gs running IOS 3.1.3) but are unable to send mail from any of them:
iPhone 3Gs    IOS 3.1.3
iPhone 3Gs    IOS 4.3.3
iPhone 4       IOS 4.3.3
iPhone 4       IOS 4.3.5
I was surprised that the iPhone 3Gs running 3.1.3 was unable to send either as nearly all the forums etc I read with this issue said the iPhone 3's worked with that IOS version.
Today we used a test iPhone 4 handset from our office to connect to an almost identical Small Business Server 2011 we setup two weeks ago for another client.
The test iPhone 4 was able to connect, Sync and Send email on that server but when set it to connect to this SBS 2011 server, it gets the "Cannot Send Mail" message the same as the others. So clearly the handset is working (on the other server at least),
it must be something misconfigured in this Exchange server right?
We ran the Exchange Remote Connectivity Analyser on the Exchange server and got green ticks across the board.
Outlook Web App and Outlook Anywhere both work normally. Everything we can test on the Exchange server works except sending from any iPhone.
Having said all that, I just setup a Windows Mobile 6.1 handset to sync with the Exchange 2010 server as a test, and it appears to have the same issue.
It will connect & Sync Mail, Contacts and Calendar but if trying to send an email from the phone, it will just sit in the outbox.
Does anyone have some insight into what the problem may be?

Further to this .. I found the solution on a MS Exchange 2010 support forum.
It was not a certificate or firewall issue, looks as thought the “Accepted Domains” in Exchange Mgmt Console –
Org Config – Hub Transport cannot have any spaces in the name field.
I had some spaces and the emails were not downloading fully and able to send. Once I removed the spaces from the Name field and
restarting the Exchange and IIS services emails were now being sent and received ok.

Exchange 2010 Server not receiving External Mail

Hi everyone,
I have an Exchange 2010 Server which is connected to an edge server.
Suddenly yesterday all the exchange users on this network stop receiving inbound Emails.
Sending and receiving internal emails still works and even sending outbound emails.
I try to restart the server to see if this could have solved the problem but unfortunately it didnt work.
I dont know much about exchange and would be grateful is someone could offer a solution.
Thank
Breon

Hi,
Agree with v_2udan. And I just want to make a supplement to him.
1.
The external Domain Name System (DNS) servers for your domain must have mail exchanger (MX) resource records pointing to your
mail servers, or, if you are using an Internet service provider (ISP) or an external system, this external system must have an MX record for your domain and a mechanism to forward mail to your Exchange servers.
2.
External servers must be able to access 25 port of you Exchange server on the internet. It can’t be blocked by firewall
or other networking settings.
3.
On Receive Connector, Anonymous users should be selected in Permission Groups.
4.   Since
you have Edge server, you can re-subscribe the Edge server.
Hope this helps.
Thanks

Renew SSL Certificate for for two Exchange 2010 Server and the new rules.

I find DigitCert's website always helpful with cert questions.They've got a pretty helpful page here: https://www.digicert.com/internal-names.htmIt looks like they've got a tool for Exchange, but I've not used it myself, so can't say if it works or how well: https://www.digicert.com/internal-domain-name-tool.htmI bet Microsoft have something on their website too that helps with this sort of question.I'd say you register a completely new domain and use that for public facing and internal servers. Or you could just create a sub domain of an existing one, i.e. subdomain.mydomain.com and use that, i.e. public_exchange.subdomain.mydomain.com and internal_exchange.subdomain.mydomain.com.

Hi there ,
My exchange 2010 Server Certificate is about to expire and i am going to renew it but according to the new rules for SSL Certificate Issuing we can not include our Local Servers Names and Local FQDN such as myserver.contoso.local, my issue is that i have 2 exchange servers one is internet-facing Server (where the certificate is initiated and installed) and one is non-internet-facing Exchange server.
if i am going to renew my certificate with public only name, I have to create a split Domain that reflects my external links to the internal Users, what shall i do for the non-internet-facing server? do i need to create another record in my split DNS Server and add it to my Certificate Request ?

Exchange 2010 server with 2 DAG servers - DAG1 and DAG2 - backup with 2 DPM servers one for each DAG server

Hello,
Please advice, i have an Exchange 2010 server with 2 DAG servers - DAG1 and DAG2 - backup with 2 DPM servers, one for DAG1 and one for DAG2 is it possible ?

Hi,
I confirmed with Exchange support team that DAGs could be backed up separately.
Meanwhile backup database is important if you need to recover both Exchange server settings and database. See:

Outlook 2011 w. Exchange 2010 - deliver mail to local inbox?

Hi all. I have a problem with a MacbookPro (OSx 10.6.8, fully updated) and Outlook 2011 (14.2.5, fully updated) using an account on a Exchange 2010 server.
Mails sent directly the users e-mail address, is delivered to a local Inbox and is therefore removed from the Exchange inbox. This is a problem, because the user is also accessing the mailbox from iPad and iPhone. There are no rules at all in the Outlook settings. The mail remains in the Exchange inbox until Outlook syncronizes folders. The strange part is that the user also recieves mails, sent to distribution lists, but these mails is not delivered to the local inbox, but stays in the Exchange Inbox.
The mail in the Exchange inbox should stay there, until deleted by the user ...
I have 40 other users using the same setup (MacBookPro, iPad, various SmartPhones) and they does not have this problem.
Does anybody know what to do or do I have to reinstall Office 2011 (again, I might add ...)

I found this and it worked for me too....
Outlook 2011 Moving Exchange Messages To On My Computer
Posted on April 8, 2011 by ccooper
I had a problem where Outlook 2011 was moving sent and inbox messages from the Exchange folders to the inbox under On My Computer. The solution was to go to Tools -> Mailing List Manager and turn off the rule that must have been set by accident.
If you simply open up the Mailing List Manager I noticed that it automatically creates a rule that matches your email address and then moves them to the Inbox On My Computer. I must have been going through the various menu options and hit return by mistake.

Forefront for Exchange 2010 - no mails in quarantine or incidents list

I have a client with Forefront 2010 installed on their exchange 2010 server. I see 45 messages that have been blocked as spam in the dashboard - 43 connection, 1 smtp and 1 content.
The client wants to know which messages are being blocked and which aren't, however when I open up the incidents and quarantine pages there is nothing there.
They have the antispam configuration set to stamp headers and continue for SCL5 to 9 and it seems to me that things should be in the quarantine.
I have all the logging options turned on and I've followed the other technet threads about this issue but none of those solutions seem to work on this machine.
If anyone has any ideas I would really appreciate it!

Hi,
Firstly, please make sure if you have enabled the anti-spam filtering engine of FPE. If yes, please refer to the blog below:
Exchange Content Filter settings are ignored
Besides, please make sure you have installed all the released hotfix rollups for FPE. Please also make sure that you have enabled "Enable content filtering incident logging" in Advanced Options of Global settings.
You can deliver quarantined items to specified recipients and set emial notification.
In addition, only an Administrator can access/manage the quarantine of FPE.
Please also ensure that you haven't configured FPE to automatically purge quarantined in a short time.
FPE content filter uses the Cloudmark™ Antispam engine to analyze each e-mail message and stamp it with a SCL.
When the setting 5 – 9 is selected, all messages with a rating of 5 or higher are treated as suspected spam.
Messages with an SCL rating of -1 and 0 will be treated as non-spam. You have the option to Quarantine or Stamp header and continue processing mail with an SCL rating in the 5 – 9 range.
If the issue persists, you can adjust the SCL setting to a lower value to see if the issue persists.

Configure Exchange 2010 internal mail routing

Hello,
I’m have an Exchange server system which includes exchange 2003 standard edition server and an Exchange 2010 server standard edition server, plus a public SMTP server. Each exchange edition is on a separate machine. The SMTP server is on a separate machine.
I am in the process of retiring the Exchange 2003 server per the following document:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/822931
Inbound mail arrives at the SMTP server and is forwarded from there to the Exchange 2010 server. All user mailboxes have been moved to the Exchange 2010 server. There is a connector between the Exchange 2003 and Exchange 2010 servers. Both the Exchange 2003
and Exchange 2010 server have a connector to the public SMTP server.
In reviewing some of the log files, it appears that a lot of mail which originates from a user mailbox on the Exchange 2010 server is being sent from the 2010 server to the 2003 server and from there to the public SMTP server. I don’t know how to change
this priority so that no mail will be sent to the Exchange 2003 server. At this point there is no reason for any mail to travel to or from the Exchange 2003 server. Any suggestions on how to change this configuration so that mail goes directly from the Exchange
2010 server to the SMTP server?
Thank you for taking the time to read and hopefully provide a response!

Hi,
From your description, I would like to clarify the following thing:
If you have finished the migration successfully, and the Exchange server 2003 is unnecessary. You can remove the connector between Exchange 2003 to Exchange 2010 and the connector between Exchange 2003 to public SMTP server. And then the mail should go directly
from Exchange 2010 to the SMTP server.
Hope my clarification can be helpful.
Best regards,

Exchange 2010 - Forwarding Mail

We are looking to forward inbound mail for a couple of users on our exchange 2010 server to an external address. Will it take up any space on our local exchange store.
Hank

No if you setup to just redirect the mail but if you select to deliver to mailbox and forward then it will keep a copy and yes will take up the space.
Create a contact for External address and set up the forwarding as per below article...

Exchange 2010/2013 co-existence and Lync integration

Hello,
I'm looking at integrating Lync Server 2013 into my lab environment, which consists of a mixed 2010/2013 Exchange environment.
UM - Exchange 2010
CAS - Exchange 2013
MBX - Exchange 2010
MBX - Exchange 2013
I've been reading about associating CAS and MBX servers with UM dial plans, when integrating with Lync.
The Technet articles, and MS Press documentation I've read suggests that
all CAS and MBX servers need to be associated with the dial plan.
Does this include the 2010 MBX servers?
As far as I was aware, in a co-existence environment between 2010/2013 all traffic is proxied to the MBX servers via the CAS 2013 role?
Does this rule still apply when UM and Lync exist in the environment?
Also, does the 2010 UM server need to be associated with the Lync UM dial plan, or does the 2013 CAS server handle this traffic as well?
Thanks
Matt

So, just the UM server in 2010 would be associated with the dialplan, you won't even have the option to add a 2010 MBX server.
The traffic isn't proxied by the 2013 CAS, it's more of a redirect, and yes this happens. A lot of what will happen under the hood will be somewhat transparent, Lync will determine where it wants to send the UM traffic. You can
watch this in the Lync logger by watching SIPStack.
The 2010 UM server can be associated with the dial plan, but you might not need it unless you're trying to recreate that specifically in your lab. Exchange 2013 UM can serve mailboxes on an Exchange 2010 server.
I would suggest just deploying it in your lab and watching what happens, that's half the fun. :)

Hi Bill
Thank you for your pos.
You can use the following command to check whether you have purchased the certificate of audiscovery.westmoreload-country.org in your organization:
Get-ExchangeCertificate –server CASServerName | fl
For example: you want to return all certificates stored on the Client Access server named ClientAccess01, you will type the follow command in EMS.
Get-ExchangeCertificate -Server ClientAccess01 | fl
If you didn’t purchased the certificate of audiscovery.westmoreload-country.org, you could contact your certificate supplier.
You could refer to the following link:

If there are any questions regarding this issue, please be free to let me know.

Just updated to my macbook pro to 10.8.2. ical not synching with my Exchange 2010 server. Worked flawlessly prior to the upgrade. Settings set to auto discover. I matched settings of a partner in my who is still using 10.7.1 without issues. Help!

Also - my battery has been telling me "service battery" for a LONG time and then it switched to "replace soon" som time ago. Can't really see what this has to do with anything but whatever.
That could conceivably explain all the problems you're describing. Replacing a Mac's battery should not be postponed since a failed battery will cause other problems to occur. It is also possible that its hard disk has failed, which means the information on it may soon become unrecoverable.
... my latest TM back up was from April 2014, can I just run this when I have rescued everthing and then it might not be as slow?
If that Time Machine backup remains intact, it may be the only viable means of recovering that Mac's information. I suggest you do not attempt to restore its contents to your ailing Mac.
Given that you are having trouble creating a newer Time Machine backup you should stop using that Mac immediately and have it serviced as soon as you are able. Do not take it to anyone other than Apple or a service facility authorized by Apple, for the very reasons you explained. If there are no Apple Stores in your vicinity search for an Authorized Apple Service Provider using the Contact Us link below. Use one of the options that appear under Contact Apple Support. The language on that page will be different for your location.

We want to change the name of an AD site which currently hosts an Exchange 2010 server. Is this possible? Are there specific steps we need to follow to keep Exchange up & running?
Thanks

Hi Sneaky,
As Vincez mentioned, it is possible to change the name of the AD site with Exchange 2010 is hosted,you just need to restart the AD topology service after changing.
