Exchange Server 2010 Room Mailboxes Double Booking

We are have several room mailboxes setup on Exchange Server 2010 and are having an issue with rooms being double booked.
I have "Allow Conflicting Meeting Requests" unchecked on the Resource Policy Tab but if a user try's to book a room that is already reserved it gets accepted and put on the calendar.
How do I stop this from happening?
Here are the settings for the room:
AutomateProcessing                  : AutoAccept
AllowConflicts                      : False
BookingWindowInDays                 : 365
MaximumDurationInMinutes            : 1440
AllowRecurringMeetings              : True
EnforceSchedulingHorizon            : True
ScheduleOnlyDuringWorkHours         : False
ConflictPercentageAllowed           : 0
MaximumConflictInstances            : 0
ForwardRequestsToDelegates          : True
DeleteAttachments                   : True
DeleteComments                      : False
RemovePrivateProperty               : True
DeleteSubject                       : False
AddOrganizerToSubject               : True
DeleteNonCalendarItems              : True
TentativePendingApproval            : True
EnableResponseDetails               : True
OrganizerInfo                       : True
ResourceDelegates                   : {}
RequestOutOfPolicy                  : {}
AllRequestOutOfPolicy               : False
BookInPolicy                        : {}
AllBookInPolicy                     : True
RequestInPolicy                     : {}
AllRequestInPolicy                  : False
AddAdditionalResponse               : False
AdditionalResponse                  :
RemoveOldMeetingMessages            : True
AddNewRequestsTentatively           : True
ProcessExternalMeetingMessages      : False
RemoveForwardedMeetingNotifications : False
MailboxOwnerId                      : gsc.local/Users/Board Room
Identity                            : gsc.local/Users/Board Room
IsValid                             : True

The most common cause of this issue is that you have both Outlook Direct Booking and AutoAccept enabled. To fix this logon to the Mailbox using Outlook and disable direct booking see (or use a script) http://blogs.technet.com/b/exchange/archive/2013/07/15/a-significant-update-to-remove-directbooking-script-is-now-available.aspx

  • SCOM 2012 R2 & Exchange Server 2010 SP3 - Mailbox services not monitored

    Having done everything depicted in Exchange Server 2010 MP I still have trouble with some Exchange services - they are in not monitored state (five days passed):
    Mailbox All Database Services - Default-First-Site-Name
    Mailbox Database Service - Management - test.local
    Mailbox Database Service - PublicFolders - test.local
    Mailbox Database Service - Users - test.local
    Mailbox Many Database Service - Default-First-Site-Name
    OfflineAddressBook Service - Default-First-Site-Name
    Why is this happening? Since monitoring exchange mailbox databases is one of the most important tasks SCOM should be doing I assume something wrong is going on here. However there are no errors or alerts in SCOM console nor in OpsMgr
    log on Exchange server itself.

    Hi There,
    Did you install the Microsoft Exchange monitoring correletion service while importing the Exchange 2010 management pack ?
    Does your MS have RMS Emulator role ? As many alerts in the Exchange 2010 MP are targetted to Root management server class.
    Also did you configure Test mailboxex and stuff post Exchange 2010 Import ?
    Did you analyse the Ops manager Event logs in the MS and Agent ? Can you post the critical and Warnign events here.
    Also is Agent proxy enabled ?
    Also is the Action account of the Agents System or Domain account ?

  • Exchange Server 2010: Convert Mailbox to MailUser

    Dear All,
    I plan to cutover migration exchange on-premises to exchange online with single-sign-on.

    Hi Khemarin,
    You can use the following cmdlet to convert a mailbox to a MailUser:
    $DomainController = (Get-ADServerSettings).DefaultConfigurationDomainController.domain
    $MailboxList= Get-Mailbox
    foreach ($Mailbox in $MailboxList) {
        Disable-Mailbox -Id $mailbox.Identity -Confirm:$False -DomainController $DomainController
        Enable-MailUser -Id $mailbox.Identity -ExternalEmailAddress ($mailbox.alias +"@domain.com") -DomainController $DomainController
        Set-MailUser -Id $mailbox.Identity `
         -DomainController $DomainController `
         -CustomAttribute1 $Mailbox.CustomAttribute1

  • Exchange 2010 resource mailbox double booking issue..

    Hi,
    I have moved the meeting room mailbox from exchange 2003 to 2010:
    set-Mailbox -Identity:<resourcename> -Type:Room
    but after that, the meeting room can be double booking in the same time.
    I have tried folllowing command, but it's failded.
    Set-CalendarProcessing -Identity <mailbox identity> -AllowConflicts:$false
    Thanks.

    Hi Martina,
    I appreciate this is an old post, however if you do pick up on this could you please advise on your statement from the above:
    "Even if the room sends a Decline, as it should when a conflict is found, you will still see that meeting request in your own Calendar."
    This is the exact behaviour happening at a customer of ours at the moment. However they don't want the meeting requests to appear/remain in the Calendar of the person trying to book the meeting room.
    Do you know of a way to stop this behaviour?
    Do you know if the meeting request is only populated in the Calendar of the user who tries to book an appointment in the resource calendar or does this appear in other perspective attendees Calendars?
    Many Thanks,
    Matt.

  • Exchange 2013 Allows Room/Resource Double Booking (By Design!)

    Since upgrading to Exchange 2013 we have noticed a significant increase in users complaining about room double bookings.  After a fair bit of testing we were able to narrow the behaviour down to a reproducible scenario.
    First things first - we have AllowConflicts set to false on all room and resource mailboxes, so that is not the issue.
    The problem manifests if the start date of a recurring meeting series is more than six months in the past.
    This is the scenario which we can reproduce:
    Find (or create) a meeting room which is configured to not allow booking conflicts (AllowConflicts:False)
    Book one or more meetings in the room (or look for existing meetings)
    Create a recurring meeting (or use an existing meeting)
    with a start date which is more than six months in the past which will conflict with one or more of the bookings created or found in step 2.
    The room will accept all instances of the new recurring meeting, even those which conflict with other bookings.
    A variation of the scenario is to extend an existing recurring meeting series:
    Find (or create) a meeting room which is configured to not allow booking conflicts (AllowConflicts:False)
    Find (or create) a recurring meeting with a start date which is more than six months in the past
    and which will end soon.
    Book one or more meetings in the room in the same time slot as the recurring meeting
    for dates past the end of the recurring meeting series.
    Extend the recurring meeting from step 2 past the meetings from step 3.
    The room will accept all instances of the extended meeting series, even those which conflict with other bookings.
    This is new behaviour in Exchange 2013 - in Exchange 2010 these scenarios worked and Exchange didn't allow double bookings.
    We opened a case with Microsoft and were eventually told that this new behaviour is 'by design'.  We even appealed to the customer advocacy group and the Exchange product team still refuse to acknowledge this as a bug.  As a workaround  it
    was suggested that we reduce the booking window horizon to 180 days, but this does not resolve the issue. 
    We are not happy; our users are not happy.
    I'm posting here to share our findings with other Exchange users who may be seeing this issue, and to ask you to please share your experience and, if possible, contact Microsoft so that the product group might reconsider their position on this behaviour.
    Ben Lye

    So it seems like I should have been a little clearer - the scenarios above are for reproduction.  I know that nobody normally creates a recurring meeting with the start date in the past - that step was just to emulate an existing meeting which was created
    more than six months ago.
    The current explanation from Microsoft is that Exchange 2013 only checks the first six months of a recurring meeting series for conflicts, so another way to encounter (or reproduce) this issue is this:
    Find (or create) a meeting room which is configured to not allow booking conflicts (AllowConflicts:False)
    Book a new recurring meeting which starts today and has an end date at least six months in the future.
    Create a new single meeting instance in the same time slot as the recurring meeting, but after the end of the recurring meeting series.
    Extend the meeting series beyond the date of the single meeting instance
    The room will accept the update to the series and the room will be double booked.

  • Exchange server 2010 - Resource mailbox not showing up in GAL

    i created  a new resource user and mailbox and can not see it in the GAL when I go to set a new meeting. If I go to the Outlook Web Acces I can see the
    new resource. How can I get the GAL to see the new resource so all staff can start signing up for it
             The
    GAL (Global Address List) is essentially a list of all email recipients in your organization.  It
    does not contain other address lists.  It could
    however contain distribution groups.
    Address lists are like the GAL,
    but more specific.  For example: “All Rooms”.  This
    would show all room mailboxes.  All room mailboxes
    would also appear in the GAL.
    You
    don’t email an address list.  These are for
    recipient browsing/clicking only.  You may be
    confusing Address Lists with Distribution groups.
    Outlook
    running in cached mode doesn’t connect to Exchange for either of these two types of address lists. Instead
    it uses what’s called an OAB (Offline Address Book) which is generated by a mailbox server once a day and distributed by a client access server or via system Public Folder. 
    Anytime
    there is an issue with an address list, I check using Outlook in online mode or through OWA; since neither of these methods use an offline copy of data.  If
    you find OWA works and Outlook cached mode doesn’t; it may be due to OAB generation issues or delays.

    The default update interval
    of OAB is 12 hours. You need to need until then to get it displayed in the GAL for Outlook Cached Mode...if you not you can go Outlook online Mode
    Please refer to 13 in this
    link:
    http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/exchangesvrgeneral/thread/0752c1fc-1a6b-4c42-a10a-a280db2f59b8#13
    If the OAB still can’t
    be updated after 12 hours please enable the diagnostic logging for MSexchangeSA>OAL Generator to maximum.

    Hi Gordon 
    This could happen if there is any mailbox which has occupied more space than its normal quota allocated.
    As suggested by geo try to clean all the DB's first 
    You can probably run Get-Mailboxdatabase | Clean-Mailboxdatabase which will clean all of your DB's wait for some time until it gets completed
    Also try running the command with the MRS server parameter switch and specify a CAS FQDN and see the results if it gets succeded
    Get-Mailbox -Database 'DBNAME'| New-MoveRequest -TargetDatabase DBNAME -BatchName "BATCHNAME" -BadItemLimit 100 -AcceptLargeDataLoss -MRSserver CAS server FQDN Good Luck !!Please mark as helpful if you find my contribution useful or as an answer if it does answer your question.That will encourage me - and others - to take time out to help you.

  • How to configure Mailbox Read-Only access for Mailbox's owner on Exchange Server 2010?

    I have to configure the Exchange Server 2010's mailbox to only grant Read-Only Access on the mailbox's owners.  So they can only allowed to read their messages and cannot modify or remove them.  Are there any references or methods to do?

    Hi,alexchy8
    We can make use of 2 PowerShell commands to achieve this goal.
    Add-MailboxPermission and Add-MailboxFolderPermission.
    Execute the Add-MailboxPermission command to delegate the read permission at mailbox level.
    Execute the Add-MailboxFolderPermission command to delegate the required permissions on specific folders inside the mailbox.
    You can read the following article as reference:

  • How do I setup Address Book to view shared contacts on Exchange Server 2010?

    At work we have MS Exchange Server 2010.  I recently switched from Entourage to native OSX Lion apps Mail, iCal and Address Book.  Mail and iCal work fine so far with Exchange (IE. I can add delegates, see their calendars, etc.) but when using Address Book, I can only see my contacts.  In Entourage I was able to search other user's contacts and copy them to mine if I desired.  Is this not possible with Address Book?

    Are you sure you did that right ... because I did a File/Backup Address Book, and the file named included the date. I then copied the file through our Airport network from the Powerbook to a new iMac. The opening Address Book on the iMac, I did a File/Revert to Address Book Backup, which allows you to choose the file. Now the iMac had the same Address Book file as the Powerbook. This looks to me to be the same thing you are trying to do.

    I found I could fix this by removing the registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\eventlog\Microsoft-Exchange-Troubleshooters/Operational
    and everything underneath it.
    My guess is that wevtutil didn't like adding an event log where it already existed but was slightly different in setup (no idea how, exactly).
    After 24 hours I'll try post again - giving things time to make sure they are actually working.

  • Use Different mailbox or same mailbox if setup two accepted domains in one Exchange Server 2010

    Hi,
    I want to know if I setup two accepted domain in one Exchange Server 2010, will it have another mailbox or use same mailbox?

    Hi,
    Based on my knowledge, to add a new name in the accepted domain list is to add a SMTP address suffix for the mailboxes. Thus, it uses the same mailbox if you setup two accepted domain in one Exchange Server 2010.
    If you have any question, please feel free to let me know.
    Thanks,

  • Recover mailbox from Exchange server 2010 information store to exchange server 2013

    I have a big issue. I have a correct exchange server 2010 where the active directory is corrupt but the information store is good.
    I would like to recover a couple of mailboxes to an exchange server 2013.
    Can anyone give me a detailed walk through of how I can accomplish this?
    Thank in advance

    Well if your AD is messed up that leaves you in a jam for sure because;
    1. Database portability ONLY works within the same organization, so you cannot just install a new 2010 server in a completely different forest and then move the DB in hopes that DB portability will work.
    2. As Ed said you should build a new Exchange 2010 server and use portability but it has to be in the same organization.
    3. Here is a good article on how to accomplish
    http://exchangeserverpro.com/exchange-2010-database-portability-disaster-recovery/
    4. Now if you by chance have an AD backup before it went south you could build a separate network with same names etc just keep it isolated from the production server and then restore AD to that environment and you could then use DB portability.
    That said if you don't have any other machines to work with then you are in a bit of a pickle and will have to use a 3rd party product to get to that data within the 2010 DB.   We make a product that can do this (DigiScope), however if you don't
    have any budget to handle its a non-issue.
    The only other thing you could consider is to restore your AD from a previous point in time, however BE VERY CAREFUL if you consider this since it could cause more issues then you have now.
    BTW if you AD is messed up, where are you putting this new 2013 server?
    Search, Recover, & Extract Mailboxes, Folders, & Email Items from Offline Exchange Mailbox and Public Folder EDB's and Live Exchange Servers or Import/Migrate direct from Offline EDB to Any Production Exchange Server, even cross version i.e. 2003 -->
    2007 --> 2010 --> 2013 with Lucid8's

  • Exchange 2010 Mailbox automapping issues after updated to Rollup 5 for Exchange Server 2010 SP3

    Hi,
    i have problem with Outlook Uses who have Full Access on other mailbox.
    An authentication window pop up very time a user start Outlook.
    If i remove the access everything is ok.
    if i insert manual the mailbox everything is ok
    The System was for 3 days ago updated to Rollup 5 for Exchange Server 2010 SP3
    Before the update, was no issue.
    i will appreciated any help
    Thanks

    Same issue here. Ever since we installed Update Rollup 5 for SP3 Exchange 2010 mailboxes that were auto mapped are not accessible. They all get the same error.
    Cannot expand the folder. The set of folders cannot be opened. The attempt to log on to the Microsoft Exchange has failed.
    What I have been doing is removing the users permission, then adding them back using the noautomap switch in Powershell. After doing that, the user manually adds the mailbox and all is well.
    Just a note here, I suspect it may have something to do with the version of Outlook 2010. We are running an older version here. I think only SP1 with no other incremental updates. Office is up to SP2. Also, one of the users I was working with could not access
    the mailbox no matter what we tried but she can walk over to another workstation and open Outlook and access the very same mailbox so that pretty much proves its software related particularly with Outlook.
    I cannot reproduce the problem on a workstation (XP) with a newer version of Outlook.
    This has been wearing me out and I suspected the Update Rollup all long. Now I am confident as others are having the same problem. If you find out anything on how to fix this other than the steps above, let me know.
