HLB for Lync Server 2013 Standard Edition
Hi Guys,
I am planning to add an additional new Lync Central site with paired Lync Server 2013 standard edition in Primary and DR data centers. with 1 or 2 OWAS Servers in each DCs. No Edge
server in this new Lync central site as we already have an Edge pool in another central site for federation. Only IM & P and Conferencing, no External Access, Mobility and EV.
My question is, for LS2013 Standard edition paired pools in the new Lync Central site. should I use HLB or DNS LB should be ok? as technically we do not have any HA here only DR.
Any advantage using HLB over DNS LB in LS2013 Standard edition?
Thanks for your help.
Cheer....
You typically wouldn't need HLB with standard edition at all. What were you planning to accomplish?

How to achieve Multi-Tenant in Lync Server 2013 Enterprise Edition
Hi,
As LHPv2 is discontinued, is anyone has idea how to achieve Multi-Tenant in Lync Server 2013 Enterprise Edition?
e.g users from different tenants should not be able to communicate unless it is allowed either by federation or any other form.
J.B.Patnaikonce a Topology has been published you can not change the FQDN.

USB Controller Driver (3.0) for Windows Server 2008 Standard Edition 32-bit
Hi,
I have recently built a HP DL320e Gen8 v2 server with Windows Server 2008 Standard Edition 32-bit & it's missing the USB Controller Driver which HP don't have. I have searched endlessly online without success. HP suggest I try Windows but I couldn't
find it in the Download Center either.
Can somebody please provide me with the USB Controller Driver for Windows Server 2008 Standard Edition 32-bit?
Regards
NazHi,
Thanks for your posting.
For this issue, i think you need to search in the HP official website or contact the HP support.

What licenses and how many should be taken for SQL Server 2012 Standard Edition
Hi,
Could you help me please with my problem: what licenses (per core or Server + CAL) should I take for SQL Server 2012 Standard Edition for the following environment:
SQl Server will be installed on VM with 1 core.
Physical processor is Intel Xeon CPU E7-4830, 2.13 GHz, 2131 Mhz.
Few people will have an access to the VM but SQL server is used for a web-application for about 200 users from Active Directory.
Great thanks in advance,
LenaHello,
Since the question is a license issue, you can call 1-800-426-9400, Monday through Friday, 6:00 A.M. to 6:00 P.M. (Pacific Time) to speak directly

What are the supported feature for LYNC Server 2013 WITHOUT Telephony
Hi
I have a new customer who is asking for LYNC Server 2013 without to use VoIP Support.
The would like to use the LYNC-SKYPE connectivity but without LYNC calls.
Most of their internal users are using SKYPE.
The Question is now, what Features are possible for example:
FEATURE-LIST
See other’s presence
Manage own presence
See presence in Office
Contact management
Contact card
PC-PC and multiparty IM
PC-PC and multiparty file transfer
Persistent Chat
PC-to-PC computer audio calling
PC-to-PC computer video calling
PC-to-PC presence display, IM, audio, and video with Skype users
But what of the above feature list is possible without using VoIP ??
And how works that LYNC WebApp Client without VoIP? Is it possible to route Audio/Video over the internet by using that LYNC WebApp Client in LYNC 2013??
Thanks in advance ;-)
Kind regards
Michael
Kind regards Michael DamaschkeAll of that is possible without PSTN connectivity or the plus cal.
When you say VoIP, do you mean audio chatting over TCP/IP in the purest form, or do you mean specifically telephone calls?
Technially PC-to-PC computer audio calling is VoIP, or voice over IP, but if you're talking about connecting it to a PBX or the phone network, you don't need it for any of the above. It works wonderfully and is quite a bit cheaper without it due to
fact that you won't need to license the plus cal for enterprise voice or the Exchange enterprise cal for voicemail.

SQL Server Sizing for Lync Server 2013
Hi,
We are planning to install Lync Server 2013 with 800 users, but I can find any information about the SQL Server instance sizing.
Can anyone give me an estimation or prior experience with similar installations? I need to know Disk size, memory an CPU number.
Thanks in advance.There are a few variables to consider. Are you turning on monitoring, archiving, and is enterprise voice enabled? Is persistent chat enabled? Is it virtualized? Is this Lync enterprise edition or standard with a portion of the
databases hosted on full SQL? Are you required to retain any information or logs for a specific amount of time? Are you keeping SQL backups local with maintenance plans and for how long?
I would suggest not going below 16GB for a SQL Server, but you may not need much more. If it's virtual I'd throw 4 cores at it at least and disk space will vary based upon what you're doing and how long you want to keep things. Thick provision
those drives and make sure the logs and databases are on separate partitions.

Deploy licences for Lync server 2013
Hi Guys,
How can i apply or how to put the Licences on Lync server 2013 i have a test lab Lync Server 2013 and i want to put the License on it how to do that? or is it possible i need another installation for it?
Thank you,
This forum really helps a lot.Agree with Anthony, the only other scenario is if you want to upgrade from the Evaluation to the full version in which case you need a copy of the full version media and follow the steps below:
Insert or mount your full version media on your Lync server.
Open Lync Server Management Shell
Run Get-CsServerVersion to display the current version
Run msiexec /fvomus server.msi EVALTOFULL=1 /qb
You may be prompted to specify the location of server.msi (which can be found in the Setup\amd64\Setup\ folder on your installation media.
Run Get-CsServerVersion to confirm the conversion was successful.
Run Enable-CsComputer

Question on latest CU for Lync Server 2013
Trying to follow KB http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=2809243 regarding the August 2014 CU for Lync 2013. First, we have 3 Lync 2013 servers in a single enterprise pool and one persistent chat server which is separate. We use an enterprise edition SQL server
to store the databases which is mirrored.
Question is in Step 2, which commands should I be running?
What does the FEBE.FQDN in the command below mean?
Install-CsDatabase -ConfiguredDatabases -SqlServerFqdn FEBE.FQDN -VerboseI think in my particular configuration, all I need to do is run the command below just once?Install-CsDatabase -ConfiguredDatabases -SqlServerFqdn SQLServer.FQDN -VerboseI realize everyone has different configurations so they try to give you all the possible|
options but they make it confusing when they list multiple commands and abreviations that don't
Mmake sense.
Also, is it necessary to run setup step 2 again on all the FE server? Article never mentions it.Hi,
FEBE.FQDN is the fully qualified name of the server that hosts your back end database (Front End Back End DB)
You are correct, regarding step two you only need to run the single command as your persistent chat is separate, and all other databases are collocated.
Kind regards

How to put Mediation Server on Maintenance Mode for LYNC server 2013
how to put the LYNC 2013 Mediation server on Maintenance mode???
Hi,
Did you solve the issue with the help the people above provided?
If you mean server draining feature you can also check Topology option on Lync Server Control Panel, on Topology interface, click “Action” and there is an action called “Prevent new sessions for service”.
Here is a similar case may help you:

Web based client for lync server 2013 , only for IM/presence
Hi,
for 20000 users, 4 FE servers, HA . only for IM/presence , looking for web/browser based client so that there will not be any need of thick client installation. is there any way? thanksif i integrate lync 2013 with exchange 2013 OWA, wil reverse proxy or Edge server will come into picture?
If you have users who are external to your network , then yes Edge server and reverse proxy will come into the picture.
will integration of lync 2013 with exchange 2013 provide the following
one-to-one, one-to-many chat. ?
Yes
archiving of chats at server side.
you need to install archiving server for lync .
Instant messaging should support rich text, emoticons.
Yes
Instant Messaging/ Chat should provide file transfer facility.
Yes
instant Messaging/chat should provide rich client and web client.
i guess the first question is the same thing
The mail messaging solution should have administrative control for file transfer.
Exchange server wont control file transfer. You have client policies applied through Lync server for
this.
I hope you have seen this link for information related to Lync clients.
