Exchange 2013 mailbox name resolving vs. exchange server name (mailbox rule)
Hello guys,
I am running exchange 2007 and exchange 2013 CU7 in hybrid mode, while internal autodiscover a record is pointing to exchange 2007 client rule server.
When I configure outlook mailbox located on exchange 2007- I can use autodiscover using mail address ore resolve mailbox name vs. exchange server name.
When I configure outlook mailbox located on exchange 2013- I can configure it only using autodiscover mechanism ( email address - next- next etc.).
We are using EMC backup software which works with MAPI. Since I wasn't able to restore granular mailboxes, I contacted EMC and they claimed that it's very important to configure mailboxes resolving.
What should I check and configure to make it work?Hi,
I think if we want to browse single mailbox by backup software, it will be regard to resolve mailbox name using server name, I suggest you contact EMC supplier to improve it.
By the way, they I type mailbox name which located on exchange 2013 server database and typing exchange 2007 cluster name, server name of exchange 2007 cluster changes automatically to exchange 2013 server on which this mailbox located.
A: first, we should make sure cluster was worked without any problem. Then make sure Exchange 2013 mailbox server was included in cluster.
If there are any questions regarding this issue, please be free to let me know.
Best Regard,
Jim

Exchange 2013 mailbox added to the CAS array
We are upgrading to Exchange 2013 from Exchange 2010. Following the development guide, we have
installed the first mailbox server in the Exchange 2010 environment which has 3 Exchange 2010 CAS server
in the array. When installing the mailbox role, we did not choose the client access role but after
the installation we can see that the Exchange 2013 Mailbox server is added to the CAS array and yet
we did not choose the client access role. How does this happen, and to proceed ?I see the same thing in my lab:

New Exchange 2013 CAS server in existing Exchange 2007 Organization
Dear Friends,
We have exchange 2007 SP3 with CU13 installed with single copy cluster for database and 1 OWA server for CAS/HT. We will migrate from current to Exchange 2013SP1. As we want to have HA, we have installed 2 new Exchange 2013 SP1 CAS server on widnows 2012
R2 after preparing our organisation for Exchange 2013. The setup went smooth without any error and successfully installed CAS with management tools. After installation it ask to reboot the server which we did. Now after reboot, we are not able to run Exchange
Management Sell. It never connects to the new server. In our old 2007 EMS also doesn't list any exchange 2013 server. We are also not able to connect to new CAS servers with below URL:
https://servername/ecp/?ExchClientVer=15
Its says site under maintenance. Please advise what to check. We were thinking of deploying CAS 1st and make it co-exist with Exchange 2007 before deploying Exchange 2013 mailbox server which will be setup in DAG. What are we doing wrong.
Thanks in advance!!Dear Friends,

If you have only the 2013 CAS installed and not the mailbox role, then nothing will really work. Remember, in 2013, the mailbox role does all the work, the CAS is simply a proxy for the most part.

Exchange 2013 CAS functionality in coexistence with Exchange 2010 CAS
Hi,
I am planning to migrate Exchange 2010 to Exchange 2013 for 15000 users. We have a pool of 6 CAS 2010 servers added in a single CAS array. So my question is if we introduce a new CAS 2013 server in same site then will it affect CAS traffic anyway ? If we
point our HLB to all CAS servers including CAS 2010 and CAS 2013 so will the CAS 2010 servers wil take traffic or is it only CAS 2013 servers who will take traffic. We will be putting same URLs in CAS 2013 same as CAS 2010. I have read lot of MS articles and
all say that CAS 2013 should be enabled for CAS traffic and it will proxy request to CAS 2010. But I am not sure if we will face any CAS traffic issue whenever we will introduce CAS 2013 servers in same site and traffic will be pointed to CAS 2010 and CAS
2013 both. Is it possible to add CAS 2013 in Exchange 2010 CAS array ? Please guide. Thanks in advance.For mailbox that exist on Exchange 2010, EXCH2013 CAS will proxy the request to an Exchange 2010 Client Access servers that exists within the mailbox’s local site.
For mailboxes that exist on Exchange 2013, EXCH2013 CAS will proxy the request to the Exchange 2013 Mailbox server that is hosting the active copy of the user’s mailbox which will generate the Autodiscover response.
-->Is it possible to add CAS 2013 in Exchange 2010 CAS array ?
No. CAS Array is no longer exits in Exchange 2013. But concept of a single namespace for Outlook connectivity remains. Please check this and this. In
your case you dont need to worry as you have a HLB in place it will do the job
When a new exchange2013 is deployed Outlook Anywhere has been enabled on all Client Access servers within the infrastructure and the mail.contoso.com and autodiscover.contoso.com namespaces have been moved to resolve to Exchange 2013 Client Access server
infrastructure. In your case it is pointed to both as you have a load balancer in place but the same URL should be configured in exch2013
Make sure you have exchange2010-SP3 minimum as it is the prerequisite requirement for upgarding EXCh2010 to 2013.
Please check the exchange server deployment assistant
tool for moving mailboxes
After moving a mailbox check the URLs. Configure autodiscover,EWS,OAB URLs on exchange2013. Please check this as
well for checking URLs.
I hope you know MAPI/RPC (RPC over TCP) traffic is now replaced with RPC over HTTP/s instead in exch2013.
Thanks

Error During Exchange 2013 Mailbox Transport Role Install On Server 2012
I was installing Exchange 2013 on Server 2012. The server is not a DC, but is a member of a domain with a 2008 R2 functional level, and I was logged in as a domain admin. There has never been an Exchange instance on this domain. I got past
the prerequisite checks, and the installer showed 15 steps, so I walked away. When I came back, I saw this:
Step 8 of 15: Mailbox role: Transport service
Error:
The following error was generated when "$error.Clear();

The only option on the screen was exit, so I did. I checked the start menu, and there were two new Exchange icons, but I did not click them. I ran the installer again, and it detected an incomplete install, the only option was to click next to
finish the install, so I clicked next. This time, I eventually got the same error, except the screen showed "Step 8 of 15: Mailbox role: Transport service." I did install some Exchange 2010 prerquisites on the server before Exchange Server 2013
came out, and I can rebuild the server and try the install again if that would be best, but I thought I should post here first and try to work through this since the product is so fresh. Any suggestions?I've tried three times since my last post, following
http://msexchange2010.info/archives/2330 as closely as possible the most recent time. I am consistently getting the same error that appears to imply I don't have write access to the domain. I don't understand this, because I am using the
same domain admin account I have been using all along. Nonetheless, here is the powershell output starting with the first Exchange setup.exe step (all other steps were already performed, all available updates were installed, and the server was rebooted
prior to this):

I am cleaning out in ADSI and rebuilding the server for now, because the server is behaving oddly (not as oddly as it was with 6GiB, but oddly, nonetheless). I probably won't try to install Exchange again before tomorrow. What should I do to prevent
encountering the above again and/or if I encounter it again? -
2 exchange 2013 multirole server and 1 addess for Outlook Anywhere. How to?
Hello everybody.
I'm coming to you with a question about my new Exchange 2013 infrastructure.
I have 2 Exchange 2013 SP1 servers. Both are multirole (CAS + MBX). My servers are Server12 and Server13.
I created a DAG which IP adderss is 192.168.3.30 (Servers IP are 3.31 and 3.32). Everything's working fine.
For CAS High Availability, I followed this thread : http://exchangeserverpro.com/exchange-2013-client-access-server-high-availability/
On my firewall, I use NAT to send https flow from my public IP address (mail.domain.fr, external domain
published on internet) to point to mail.domain.org (internal domain, non published on Internet). The mail.domain.org alias is my record defined in my internal DNS to
point to my 2 multirole server, as shown in the tutorial above.
I encounter a problem with external outlook anywhere. My problem comes with Outlook Anywhere which is not working fine when I redirect https flow to my cluster IP address (192.168.3.30) (DAG's address, corresponding to my servers). If I do the same redirection,
but pointing to only one of my servers, it's working fine. In Exchange, external outlook Anywhere directory points to mail.domain.fr
But anyway, if this servers goes down, I have to change manually the NAT on my firewall. And I don't want to :).
How can I do ? Can I do something without a physical load-balancer?
ThanksYou cannot point Outlook Anywhere to your DAG cluster IP address. It must be pointed to the actual IP address of either server.
For no extra cost DNS round robin is the best you will get, but it does have some drawbacks as it may give the IP address of a server you have taken down for maintenance or the server has an issue.
You could look to implement a load balancer but again if you are doing this for high availability then you want more than one load balancer in the cluster - otherwise you've just moved your single point of failure.
Having your existing NAT and just remembering to update it to point to the other server during maintenance may suit your needs for now.
If you can go into more detail about what the high availability your business is looking to achieve and the budget we can suggest the best method to meet those needs for the price point.
Have a great day

Exchange 2013 MB/CAS integration with legacy Exchange 2007 CAS/MB/Trans server
Hi All,
I have an existing running Exchange 2007 SP3 RU13 server acting as MB,CAS,Transport using a Barracuda SPAM for SMTP (MX Record is assigned to here), and a TMG2010 server performing all ActiveSync, Outlook Anywhere, and OWA connectivity.
I have built a new Exchange 2013 SP1 server that will (for the meantime) act as a MB & CAS server only.
I successfully migrated a testuser mailbox to the new EX2013 server from the EX2007 server. The problem is that once migrated, OWA and Outlook can't access the mailbox.
OWA form our URL gives the message: Outlook Web Access is currently unavailable. If the problem continues, contact technical support for your organization and tell them the following: No Client Access servers of the appropriate version can be accessed from
the Internet
If I run OWA from the EX2013 URL it works ok, but not for MBs on the EX2007 server.
I tested this configuration in a VM lab and it worked ok. All I had to do was move the mailbox, then run Outlook. Outlook automatically found the new server and opened the MB.
Basically what I need to do is move all our existing MBs from the old 2007 server to the new 2013 server. I want to continue to use the exisiting transport/CAS/EDGE services on 2007 without having to rebuild both the internal and external comunications
infrastructure at the present time.
How can I get the EX2013 server to act as the MB server for the EX2007 communications infrastructure?Hi,
Please try to create a new user on Exchange 2013, and send/receive email via both Outlook and OWA to test whether the Exchange 2013 mail flow well.
If Exchange 2013 works well, please try to bypass the TMG on Exchange 2007 for a little while for testing.
Additionally, we can use CAS 2013 URL to proxy/redirect previous CAS, or publish both CAS 2007 and CAS 2013 to be internet facing server with separate URLs, as Ed suggested.
Thanks

Is it supported to connect Exchange 2013 Mailbox using Exchange 2010 CAS in Co-existence?
Hi Team,
I am in the phase of upgrading Exchange 2010 to 2013, and introduced 4 MBX and 2 CAS of 2013 servers in co-existence.
Only one production mailbox of 2010 moved to 2013. The owa of the mailbox moved to 2013, is working OK internally coz only internally configured, but when I configure outlook using 2010 settings, it got configured but when I open outlook it doesn't
open and throws an error of some "cannot open set of folders".
Is it supported to connect Exchange 2013 Mailbox using Exchange 2010 CAS in Co-existence? because I havnt configured 2013 CAS servers yet.
Kindly share some KB or tip. Any help is appreciated. Thank You.

Exchange 2010 mailbox prompts for authentication to Exchange 2013 mailbox
I am in the process of a 2010 to 2013 migration. The only issue I can't seem to manage is an authentication issue with Outlook 2010. My Outlook profile consists of my Exchange 2013 mailbox and a shared mailbox on Exchange 2010. Initially, Outlook was prompting
for authentication to the Exchange 2010 mailbox. Regardless of whether I entered the correct credentials or simply cancelled the prompt, I still had full access to both mailboxes (including Public Folders on 2010). The authentication prompt was removed with
the following command:
Get-OutlookAnywhere -Server my2013exchserver | Set-OutlookAnywhere -InternalClientsRequireSsl $true
The second issue I now have is the reverse of the above: an Exchange 2010 user is prompted for authentication to an Exchange 2013 mailbox. How do I begin to troubleshoot this problem - should I run the same command (above) on 2010? I don't quite understand
how Outlook communicates with Exchange but I am thinking there is an incorrect setting on one of the Virtual Directories(?).
Many thanks.Hi Dennis,
Please open Outlook - press CTRL key - right click on the Outlook icon from right bottom corner taskbar –Connection Status to check the connection for your Exchange 2010 mailbox with shared 2013 mailbox. The following example in my test results:
Please check your connection authentication. We can run the following command to set your Outlook Anywhere for Exchange 2013:
Set-OutlookAnywhere -Identity "E15-01\Rpc (Default Web Site)" -InternalClientAuthenticationMethod Ntlm -ExternalClientAuthenticationMethod Basic -ExternalClientsRequireSsl $True -InternalClientsRequireSsl $true
In Outlook side, please ensure the following settings in Account Settings:
In Security tab, make sure Always prompt for logon credentials is unchecked and Logon network security is set to Negotiate Authentication.

Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013 Mailbox Migration (moved twice)
I have an Exchange 2007 mailbox that I migrated to Exchange 2013 and works fine. I migrated it back to Exchange 2007 and still works fine during coexistence with Exchange 2013. I try to migrate the mailbox back to Exchange 2013 and now it won't open in
Outlook 2007. It says disconnected when it's trying to connect. I can't figure out what's causing this.Hi,
According to your description, I understand that all mail client works fine after migrate mailbox form Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013, however Outlook 2007 cannot connect to Exchange server when mailbox moved to Exchange 2007 then move back to Exchange 2013
If I misunderstand your concern, please do not hesitate to let me know.
Basis on previous steps testing, the mailbox and mailbox database is available in Exchange server. How about another computer with same Outlook version and problematic account?
If it works in another client, please open Control Panel\User Accounts\Credential Manager in problematic computer, then clear the remains credential and try again.
This issue may be related to the connection between Outlook and Exchange server, please click “Send/Receive All Folders” or “Update Folder” to update data. Also, run Test E-mail AutoConfiguration and Outlook Connection Status with problematic account to
narrow down issue. Please post relevant error message, it’s more helpful for further troubleshooting.

Exchange 2013 mailbox is being excluded from provisioning
I have a Exchange 2013 CU4 server on Windows 2012. I have 2 mailbox databases setup. One is for journaling and the other is for regular mailboxes. I set the IsSuspendedFromProvisioning switch to true on the journal DB about 8 months ago.
Recently, when I go to make a mailbox it says "Load balancing failed to find a valid mailbox database." Upon Investigating, I discovered that the regular mail DB had its
IsExcludedFromProvisioning switch set to true. I changed it to false and the mailbox was created fine. A couple days later, I went to add another mailbox and the same thing happened. I monitored the mailbox status and determined that
within 30 mins of setting the IsExcludedFromProvisioning switch to true that it switches back to false. I am unsure of how to correct this. Any thoughts?Here is the output from the requested cmdlet.

Recently the only changes made to the Exchange organization has been moving the journal db to a new HDD. I didn't have any issues or errors.
I notice that the IsExcludedFromProvisioningBySpaceMonitoring is set to false. Is this determining how much room is left on the drive. I looked at the drive and see that there is still 10.7 GB left of the available 149 GB. I know
that Exchange tends to work on percentages now so is this below the needed available diskspace to provision to automatically?
Thank you for the input. -

I was installing Exchange 2013 on Server 2012. The server is not a DC, but is a member of a domain with a 2008 R2 functional level, and I was logged in as a domain admin. There has never been an Exchange instance on this domain. I got past
the prerequisite checks, and the installer showed 15 steps, so I walked away. When I came back, I saw this:
Step 8 of 15: Mailbox role: Transport service
Error:
The following error was generated when "$error.Clear();
$maxWait = New-TimeSpan -Minutes 8
$timeout = Get-Date;
$timeout = $timeout.Add($maxWait);
$currTime = Get-Date;
$successfullySetConfigDC = $false;
while($currTime -le $timeout)
$setSharedCDCErrors = @();
try
Set-SharedConfigDC -DomainController $RoleDomainController -ErrorVariable setSharedCDCErrors -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue;
$successfullySetConfigDC = ($setSharedCDCErrors.Count -eq 0);
if($successfullySetConfigDC)
break;
Write-ExchangeSetupLog -Info ("An error ocurred while setting shared config DC. Error: " + $setSharedCDCErrors[0]);

Write-ExchangeSetupLog -Info ("Waiting 30 seconds before attempting again.");

$currTime = Get-Date;
if( -not $successfullySetConfigDC)
Write-ExchangeSetupLog -Error "Unable to set shared config DC.";
" was run: "Unable to set shared config DC.".Hi Deepak,
From the error description, I would like to clarify the following things:
1. Please ensure that IPv6 on the network adaptor is turned on.
2. Please check if the account that you used to install Exchange has necessary permissions to perform the installation.
3. Make sure that DNS is configured correctly.
Hope my clarification is helpful.
If there are any problems, please feel free to let me know.
Best regards,
Amy

Exchange 2013 Mailbox Role Installation Error
Hi All,
I am getting the below error when installing Exchange 2013 Mailbox Role. This is a Windows Server 2012. Previous Exchange 2013 setup was removed since it had issues with CAS. Now we have removed all previous Exchange software and attributes.

Exchange 2013 (co-existence 2007) - 2013 mailbox can not connect with Outlook 2010
This was working but after some problems with third party pop3 its been broken. Grrrrrrr
OWA internally works fine for my 2013 test mailboxes. It doesn't work externally yet because I have yet to cutover to co-existence. (Still pointing to the 07 CAS externally)
Internally Outlook 2010 is working for 2007 users. But for my three test 2013 mailboxes it is not. Outlook 2010 is patched to the correct level (even tried sp2)
It finds the user name - finds the server but refuses to authenticate. I have checked the outlook anywhere url on the 2013 server and I get the correct urls- internal and external set the same. I have set the service control point for autodiscover
on 2013.
Now I haven't yet cut over externally to 2013 - and my internal urls for OWA are still set to webmail. But the legacy name exists and is set internally for all others. Authentication? basic externally NTLM internally
Where do I start looking. .Hi
Did you try running ExRCA test ?
If you have tried whats the result for EXRCA?
Do you have a valid Certificate assigned for Exchange 2013 ?
Do you have a valid cert principal Name for Exchange 2013 ?
Do you get any errors while trying to open outlook for test migrated users ?
If so can you paste the errors
You can also use test-outlookconnectivity cmdlet to test connectivity and see the results for any errors
Note :The outlook that you are using should patched with latest patch at-least with Nov 2013 patch.
Since Exchange 2013 has minimum requirement on the outlook version. Also check the authentication for Outlook Anywhere should be NTLM in co-existence mode of Exchange 2007 and 2013.
you can verify them using ps Get-OutlookAnywhere | fl and check the Authentication method for external and internal.
