You can create a PS1 file and run it in a scheduled task.
The PS1 files will need to have this.
Restart-Service MSExchangeTransport
Restart-Service MSexchangeIS
etc...
How to add a Scheduled task is given in this link.

Exchange Server 2013 Service Pack Upgrade - Outlook connectivity issue
Hi,
After upgrading to Exchange Server 2013 service pack 1, we are unable to connect via Outlook 2010 or Outlook 2013. Outlook Web Access is working fine though. We have followed all the instructions, and have applied Outlook upgrades, but the issue remain the
same. Outlook was working fine before the upgrade.
Have we missed out something. I would highly appreciate if someone can help out? I'm not sure if this is the known issue as I can't seem to find anything on the internet.
Already applied the transport fix.
Thanks in advance!Hi,
According to your description, your Outlook 2010 and Outlook 2013 come across the connectivity issue.
To narrow down the issue, I’d like to recommend the following troubleshooting:
1. Check if the issue happens on all Outlook users
2. Check the Outlook Anywhere connectivity by using ExRCA:
https://testconnectivity.microsoft.com/
Additionally, MAPI over HTTP is only supported when you use Outlook 2013 sp1 and Exchange 2013 sp1 at the same time. Since the issue also happens on Outlook 2010 client, we can firstly try the above troubleshooting.
If you have any question , please feel free to let me know.
Thanks,

I used Exchange 2013 SP1+CU5 to install Edge role on Windows server 2012 R2 workgroup machine
then after installation the service "Exchange server health Service" was not starting automatically or manually with the following error "Error 1075: The dependency service does not exist or has been marked for deletion"
and in the Event Viewer I have this error:
Event Id: 7003
The Microsoft Exchange Health Manager service depends on the following service: MSExchangeADTopology. This service might not be installed.
please adviceThe Exchange 2013 Edge Role has a reduced set of services compare to a CAS or MBX server role:
Active Directory Web Services
Microsoft Exchange ADAM
Microsoft Exchange Anti-spam Update
Microsoft Exchange Diagnostics
Microsoft Exchange Credential Service
Microsoft Exchange Health Manager
Microsoft Exchange Service Host
Microsoft Exchange Transport
Microsoft Exchange Transport Log Search
The above one was from Exchange 2013 Sp1. Not sure whether Microsoft Exchange Health Manager service has been replaced from CU5.
Just restart the edge server once again and ensure that you are able to see this service again in services console.

Installation of exchange server 2013
Hi,
can we install ADDS, DNS, and Exchange server 2013 on a single server, and the OS is windows server 2012 r2 Standard Edition.
If it is possible then, is there any dis-advantages that my disturb Exchanger Server 2013 Services.
Thanks & regards,
Anil.Its not recommended for wide variety of reasons in Production environment... Good to go if you want to just test something and not worried about things...
Configuring Exchange 2013 for Active Directory split permissions isn’t supported.
The Exchange Trusted Subsystem universal security group (USG) is added to the Domain Admins group when Exchange is installed on a domain controller. When this occurs, all Exchange servers in the domain are granted domain administrator rights in that domain.
Exchange Server and Active Directory are both resource-intensive applications. There are performance implications to be considered when both are running on the same computer.
You must make sure that the domain controller Exchange 2013 is installed on is a global catalog server.
Exchange services may not start correctly when the domain controller is also a global catalog server.
System shutdown will take considerably longer if Exchange services aren’t stopped before shutting down or restarting the server.
Demoting a domain controller to a member server isn’t supported.
Running Exchange 2013 on a clustered node that is also an Active Directory domain controller isn’t supported.
Refer:
Installing Exchange on a domain controller is not recommended

Exchange Server 2013 installer will not start or complete
Hello,
I am trying to MS Exchange Server onto a Windows Server 2012R2 with Active Directory network. I had started an installation process and it shot out a list of pre-requisites that server need before it can attempt to install. I fulfilled every pre-requisite.
Rebooted the server. Now whenever I attempt another installation process again. It starts, gathers information, and quits with event log:
Windows Installer installed the product. Product Name: Microsoft Exchange Server. Product Version: 15.0.516.32. Product Language: 1033. Manufacturer: Microsoft Corporation. Installation success or error status: 0.
MS Exchange Server is not listed in Programs and Features to even remove, is it a faulty Microsoft Installer? I have already rebooted numerous times to no avail.
EDIT: Here's a copy of the MSI log, I couldn't find anything to indicate what's going wrong myself, http://pastebin.com/LwCAimuFHi,
I've downloaded (as per instructions above):
Microsoft Exchange Server 2013 Service Pack 1 (SP1)
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=41994
Again, the installer repeats the same behavior as before, right now I am running a repair tool on .Net repair tool.
New log http://pastebin.com/SDynMaDe
Edit: Looks like there's long list of issues trying to fulfill Exchange Pre Requisite.
Windows Management Framework 4.0
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=40855
"The certificate for the signer of the message is invalid or not found"
It would probably be best to re-install Windows Server again -

Outlook 2010 Exchange Server 2010 to Exchange Server 2013 Features
Hi All
We have recently upgraded from Exchange Server 2003 to Exchange Server 2010. We are using the Outlook 2010 (32 bit) email client. When mailboxes were moved on to the new server various features inside the system were activated. For email Internal Out of
Office Messages, External Out of Office Messages, notifications in the email recipient bar when creating emails if the user was out of office.
What new features would be available with Outlook 2010 (32 bit) and Exchange 2013. And are they dependent on the Office Service Pack?
Kind Regards
Please note that I have previously posted this in another forum but was advised to post here in this forum.Hi,
I find your post on Office forum:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/fc538968-212c-411c-8ce8-0ef1d7acfcca/outlook-2010-exchange-server-2010-to-exchange-server-2013-features?forum=outlook
The Steve's answer is comprehensive, great links on Exchange 2013 new features and removed features.
About "And are they dependent on the Office Service Pack?", I will give the answer.
Based on my knowledge, when new SP releases, it include enhancements in security and compliance, architecture and administration, and user experiences.
For example, Exchange 2013 SP1, it connects to Outlook 2013 SP1 via MAPI over HTTP.
If you want to know more about the Exchange new features, please see Exchange Team Blog.
Find blog about SP1 for your reference:

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 advanceWell 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

Hi,
We have Exchange server 2013 restarting issue.(15.0.847.32)
Found The bugcheck was: 0x000000ef (0xffffe00000ee8080, 0x0000000000000000, 0x0000000000000000, 0x0000000000000000) Event in the logs.
We have performed below steps but still same issue.
1. We have removed
Global Override for
ServiceHealthMSExchangeReplForceReboot responder (Reason for this as its not getting disabled)
2. Created Local Override and set the value to "0" (Disabled)
Server still restarting.Hi,
I have followed above already the problem remain same.
I have disabled Microsoft Exchange Health
Manager Service to monitor till now issue not reported.
Is this best practice to disable the service in these kinds of issues or is there any other way?
Its a workaround that many have used yes.
However, having said that, its not something you want to leave in place.
I would suggest upgrading to at least CU6 or CU7 and if that does not resolve the issue, opening a support case with Microsoft.

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

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- Information Store Service not starting
Hi Everyone,
We are having an issue with one of our Exchange Servers that is running Exchange Mailbox server role.
Server : Exchange 2013 CU3 , Windows Server 2012 R2
We noticed on Friday that its "Information Store Service" has stopped working and we try to manually run it (Services->Microsoft
Exchange Information Store Service -> Start)
Service didn't start and gave : Error 0x80004005 Unspecified Error
Trying to start the service using the command line using: net start MSexchangeIS gave us a different error:
System Error 16389 has Occurred
The system can not find message text for message number 0x4005 in the message file for BASE
Event viewer has (Event ID : 7031):
The Microsoft Exchange Information Store service terminated unexpectedly. It has done this 1 time(s). The following corrective action will be taken in 5000 milliseconds: Restart the service.
Since we have got this error we have tried some fixes such as Checking Time synchronisation and IPv6 issues. But nothing
seems to have caused this. We have rebuild the windows server from scratch and used the recover server switch to rebuild the Exchange server. Still the same issue.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.Hi Tiraj,
Any update? Does the issue still occur after install Exchange server on Windows Server 2012?
I wonder if the issue occurs suddenly or did you configured something on database.
In addition, overload on server could also cause the issue.

Rebecca Tu

Exchange Server 2013 POP3 Service on CAS cannot after Upgrade to SP1
Exchange Server 2013 POP3 Service on CAS cannot after Upgrade to SP1
When I manual start MSExchangepop3 Service on CAS It show "The Microsoft Exchange POP3 Service on Local Computer started and then stopped. Some services stop automatically if they are not in use by other services or programs."
In event log show POP3 EventID 1018 , 1019 , 1036
It said like this blinding already use (0.0.0.0)
The point is "IF I SET BINDING FOR 995 , MSEXCHANGE POP3 Service will automatic stop"
Does anyone face this issue please?
Thank youYou could check what (if anything) else is running on that port.
From a command prompt, type netstat -ano | find 995
This will give you the Process Identifier (PID) for the process that is running on port 995. Then you can open Task Manager, add PID as an additional column, and find out what that process is.
Hope that helps. -
Exchange Server 2013 Management Pack in SCOM 2012, can not update healthset status automatically
Hi, all
I have Exchange Server 2013 and SCOM 2012 installed. I have imported Exchange Server 2013 Management Pack to SCOM 2012. Now I have a question that when there is a service not healthy, I can find the red alert in my alert view with the Exchange 2013 server,
but after the service is healthy automatically, the red alert is still there. I can only make it become green healthy status after reseting the healthset status in the healthset explorer.
Does anyone know how to make the server become green healthy status automatically after the monitor is healthy?
Thank you.
NileHi,
How many Exchange Servers do you have? Does this issue only occur on one Exchange Server?
Please check the application log on the problematic Exchange server and see whether there are any related event error.

Best practice on mailbox database size & we need how many server for deployment exchange server 2013
Dear all,
We have an server that runs Microsoft exchange server 2007 with the following specification:
4 servers: Hub&CAS1 & Hub&CAS2 & Mailbox1 & Mailbox2
Operating System : Microsoft Windows Server 2003 R2 Enterprise x64
6 mailbox databases
1500 Mailboxes
We need to upgrade our exchange server from 2007 to 2013 to fulfill the following requirment:
I want to upgrade the exchange server 2007 to exchange server 2013 and implement the following details:
1500 mailboxes
10GB or 15GB mailbox quota for each user
How many
servers and databases are
required for this migration<ins cite="mailto:Mohammad%20Ashouri" datetime="2014-05-18T22:41"></ins>?
Number of the servers:
Number of the databases:
Size of each database:
Many thanks.You will also need to check server role requirement in exchange 2013. Please go through this link to calculate the server role requirement : http://blogs.technet.com/b/exchange/archive/2013/05/14/released-exchange-2013-server-role-requirements-calculator.aspx
2TB is recommended maximum database size for Exchange 2013 databases.
Here is the complete checklist to upgrade from exchange 2007 to 2013 : http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff805032%28v=exchg.150%29.aspx
Meanwhile, to reduce the risks and time consumed during the completion of migration process, you can have a look at this proficient application(http://www.exchangemigrationtool.com/) that would also be
a good approach for 1500 users. It will help you to ensure the data security during the migration between exchange 2007 and 2013. -
I need to buy Microsoft Exchange Server 2013 License.
I need to buy exchange 2013 license but problem is that I have total 175 users in my organization and then exchange standard license support upto 5 mailboxes and exchange enterprise support upto 100 mailboxes. My boss want to have each user have separate
mailbox..
So i am looking a solution for 175 users with 175 mailboxes. If anyone can help me and guide me which exchange server is best and how can i manage 175 separate mailboxes ????

thanks in advanceHi FAISAL,
Regardless of which version of the Exchange 2013 will not limit the number of mailboxes, however，different versions of the
restrictions embodied in the number of databases.
More details please refer to the following article:
Exchange 2013: editions and versions
Microsoft Exchange Server 2013 is available in two server editions: Standard Edition and Enterprise Edition. Enterprise Edition can scale to 50 mounted databases per server in the Release to Manufacturing (RTM) and Cumulative Update 1 (CU1) versions, and
100 mounted databases per server in Cumulative Update 2 (CU2) and later versions; Standard Edition is limited to 5 mounted databases per server.
