Importing user profiles from Exchange server 2010

Recently our org moved from exchange 2003 to exchange 2010. after the move we suddenly have all the distribution list not available in user profiles. groups like
#HR_ALL and #RESEARCH_ALL are not found in our user profile store anymore after latest crawl
At this point I am confused if I as SharePoint Admin needs to change something in profile import connection or is it something by default in Exchange 2010 security model that blocks distribution lists from crawling. No changes are made to default content
access account since early 2008 when we implemented MOSS 2007.
btw, just an FYI, even when i tried to use "#HR_ALL" in my outlook it gave me "You do not have permission to sent to this account" message .Though i am not not sure if this
was always the expected behavior or due to recent changes.
new to every thing

Hi Adil Baig,
i checked with our exchange team, seems there are differences in exchange 2003 to 2010, for example,
starting exchange 2007, the distribution list, need to be set to universal group, if you put as non-universal group then there should be no email enabled.
or if you upgrade from the previous version of exchange then the non-universal group may be added.
more detail for this :
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/40300ed4-85a5-463d-bb3a-cf787bd44e9d(v=exchg.141).aspx
if from the exchange part is done, then you may continue to the sharepoint 2007, SSP settings to import them again, http://wss-moss.blogspot.in/2008/07/blog-post.html
as i know, sharepoint may not take the distribution list as save enough because there is no security enabled, usually it take grouptype: security.

Upgrade directly from Exchange Server 2010 SP1 to Exchange Server 2010 SP3

Hi,
We have current setup with Exchange Server 2010 SP1 ( DAG & CAS Array with WNLB).
Can we upgrade directly from Exchange Server 2010 SP1 to
Exchange Server 2010 SP3 . ?
Thanks in Advanced.
Regards,Ali

Hi Ali,
Yes, you can. Please upgrade your Exchange 2010 SP1 server roles in the following order: Client Access, Hub Transport, Unified Messaging, Mailbox, Edge Transport. What's more, please note that when you install a Service Pack or update rollup on a server
that's a DAG member, several services will be stopped during the installation, including all Exchange services and the Windows Cluster service.
For more information, here is a helpful article 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 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?

Migrate from Exchange Server 2010 sp3 to 2013 sp1

I have one Exchange Server 2010 SP3 server (300 mailboxes) installed on Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 with three major roles on it (CAS, MB and HT) - typical installation. Edge Transport server is not installed thus for controlling of mail flow
Symantec Messaging Gateway Virtual Appliance is used as Smart Host. UM server is not installed either. I set up test domain environment where I installed one domain controller (Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1) and one Exchange Server 2010 SP3 (Windows
Server 2008 R2 SP1) at first place and yesterday I did everything necessary to install Exchange Server 2013 SP1 on new test virtual server running Windows Server 2012 R2 which I successfully did.
Now in test domain I have two Exchange Servers (2010 SP3 and 2013 SP1). Is there any 100% reliable documentation with all actions that had to be taken in order to successfully migrate Exchange Server 2010 SP3 to 2013 SP1? I would want to know what
needs to be done not only for my scenario but also for other scenarios (DAG, CAS array, Edge, UM, multiple HT servers . . .) since I am interested in digging deep into Exchange Server 2013.

How to capture the user activities in Project Server 2010

Hi
I want to capture the user activities from Project Server 2010 like when a user has saved and published etc.
Is there any possibility that we can get the user activities data from sql server.
Please throw some light on the same.
Thanks
Geeth If you feel that the answer which i gave you is Helpful please select it as Answer/helpful.

Hi Geetha,
As far as I know, there is no such information stored in Project Server DB.
You can have this kind of information by project, such as the ProjectModifiedDate in the Reporting DB (MSP_EPMProject_userView). I also know that there is a PROJ_LAST_SAVED date in the Draft DB. But be aware that querying in the Draft DB is not supported
by MS.
Another way would be doing some custom code, storing in a separate DB each save and publish operation per user.
Hope this helps.

Exchange Server 2010 mailflow reporting using SCOM 2007

Hi,
We are using SCOM 2007R2 in our Organization and we are Monitoring Exchange server 2010.
We are in need of reports for Mailflow statistics (send and receive)from Exchange server 2010 using SCOM 2007R2.
Eg: Microsoft Exchange 2010 Server Reports Transport Platform Hourly server Statistics.
By default reports available in SCOM for Exchange server will not fulfill our requirement.
Earlier for Exchange server 2007 we are able to fetch the desired reports which is available by default.
Eg: Exchange 2007 SMTP Message Received
Exchange 2007 SMTP Message Sent
Is there any way to fetch the reports for Exchange server 2010 same as Exchange 2007 reports.
Thanks

Free Busy takes over 30 seconds to retrieve on Outlook 2010 using Exchange Server 2010

We have a small 100 user domain running Exchange server 2010 and outlook 2010 clients. The issue is that Retrieving Free/Busy takes over 30 seconds.
So someone is trying to schedule a meeting has to wait Minutes see the Free/busy time for many users.. I have checked and all the users in question have published at least one month free busy time.
It seems it would be much faster. Anyone have this same experience and know of a way to speed it up?
thanks in Advance
David

Hi David,
Does the issue happen in OWA? In Exchange 2010, the free/busy information is retreved by using Availability service (EWS url). Generally, if a user wants to view free/busy information when create a meeting, the http Availability service request
would send to CAS server.
Please check whether the usage in Exchange server is high when the slow free/busy information occurs. This reflect time would also be related to the network in your environment.

When sending e-mail messages to a mail-enabled public folder that have been replicated from old Exchange Server 2000/2003/2007, Exchange Server 2010 environment mails are rejected with NDR.

Hi, I would like to share with you issue that I’ve solved regarding mail-enabled PF that migrated from Exchange 2000/2003/2007 to 2010, I’ve searched & contacted my MVP leader – there’s no official KB regarding this issue right
now, so I’m posting here in order to share this among others.
Note: There’s article(s) that talked about PF replication from Exch2000/2003/2007 to 2010 – this is the same issue as well.
Symptoms
E-mail messages that been sent to mail-enabled public folder in Exchange Server 2010 environment rejected with the following NDR:
“#< #5.2.0 smtp;554 5.2.0 STOREDRV.Deliver.Exception:ObjectNotFoundException; Failed to process message due to a permanent exception with message The Active Directory user wasn’t found. ObjectNotFoundException: The Active Directory
user wasn’t found.> #SMTP#”
Sometimes Exchange Server 2010 is documented as well Event ID 1020 on the Event Viewer with this information:
“Log Name: Application
Source: MSExchange Store Driver
Event ID: 1020
Level: Error
Description:
The store driver couldn’t deliver the public folder replication message "Hierarchy ([email protected])" because the following error occurred: The Active Directory user wasn't found.”
Cause
In an environment where Microsoft Exchange Server 2000 or Microsoft Exchange Server 2003 previously existed, and all those servers have been removed, there is a chance that an Administrative Group (First Administrative Group or another custom Administrative
Group) remains with a Servers container, but no servers inside it.
During replication, when the Exchange 2010 Store Driver sees the empty Servers container in Active Directory, it's expecting a System Attendant object inside the container and when it is not found the error occurs.
Resolution
To work around the issue, delete the empty Servers container. This can't be done through Exchange System Manager. Use the ADSI Edit tool to remove it using the following steps:
Warning If you use the ADSI Edit snap-in, the LDP utility, or any other LDAP version 3 client, and you incorrectly modify the attributes of Active Directory objects, you can cause serious problems. These problems may require you to reinstall Microsoft Windows
2003 Server, Microsoft Windows Server 2008, Microsoft Exchange 2010 Server or both Windows and Exchange. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems that occur if you incorrectly modify Active Directory object attributes can be solved. Modify these attributes
at your own risk.
1.
Start the ADSI Edit MMC Snap-in. Click Start, then
Run, and type adsiedit.msc, and then click OK.
2.
Connect & Expand the Configuration Container [YourServer.DNSDomainName.com], and then expand
CN=Configuration,DC=DNSDomainName,DC=com.
3.
Expand CN=Services, and then CN=Microsoft Exchange, and then expand
CN=YourOrganizationName.
4.
You will see an empty Administrative Group. Expand the
CN=YourAdministrativeGroupName.
5.
Expand CN=Servers.
6.
Verify there are no server objects listed under the
CN=Servers container.
7.
Right click on the empty CN=Servers container and choose
Delete.
8.
Verify the modification, and try to send again the E-mail to the mail-enabled public folder.
Applies to
Exchange Server 2010, Standard Edition
Exchange Server 2010, Enterprise Edition

| E-mail: [email protected]

Sounds like you are looking in the wrong Administrative Group container which is why you are seeing your Exchange 2010 servers in there.
When you install Exchange 2003 only you will see a container named by default as "CN=First Administrative Group" container. But this could be named anything if you changed the Organization Name on the installation when you installed the first
Exchange 2003 server into the domain/forest.
You will notice that when you install Exchange 2010 part of the AD setup is to create a new configuration container and is named by default "CN=First Administrative Group (FYDIBOHF23SPDLT)".
So it sounds like you are not looking in the right location within ADSIEdit.
You may find the following article also helpful for this issue which is the same resolution:
http://blogs.technet.com/b/sbs/archive/2012/05/17/empty-cn-servers-container-causing-issues-with-public-folders-on-small-business-server-2011.aspx
I recommend though that you ensure your Exchange 2003 servers are fully uninstalled or no longer present in your environment before you go deleting the Servers container though.. The following Microsoft article will help with this:

Exchange Server 2010 SP3 test environment - email flow to/from internet

Today I set up test environment for Exchange Server 2010 SP3 - domain controller running Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1, Exchange Server 2010 SP3 on Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 and client computer running Windows 7 Pro SP1 x64 with Outlook Pro 2010 x64. These
machines are VMs on vSphere 5.0 cluster made of 4 esxi 5.0 hosts.
I have three years of experience in working with Exchange Server 2010 in my production environment but until recently I have not had enough resources to build a test environment. Does "testing" Exchange Server 2010 infrastructure have
a real life purpose considering the fact that only internal email flow is possible since authoritative SMTP accepted domain is not hosted anywhere thus not visible to outside world. This limited email flow combined with absence of possibility to test
ActiveSync, Outlook Anywhere, OWA from WAN, . . . really hurt and make Exchange Server rare technology that can not be tested completely before introducing something new into the production. Services that are not possible to test from the outside world are
useless and whole point of Exchange-like technologies is availability from anywhere and from whatever device.

I set up Internet Send Connector (by default this type of send connector uses DNS MX records to route email automatically). Having sent an email to my gmail account I did not receive it and in transport logs I saw that mx record was found successfully
but there is the following line:
2014-08-05T20:39:51.942Z,Internet Connector,08D17F000FE36010,1,,2a00:1450:4013:c01::1b:25,*,,"Failed to connect. Error Code: 10051, Error Message: A socket operation was attempted to an unreachable network 2a00:1450:4013:c01::1b:25"
I tried also to send an email to my production email address (we have Symantec Messaging Gateway which is used as a smart host (antispam,antimalware,content filter appliance)) but then error is:
2014-08-05T20:50:08.395Z,Internet Connector,08D17F000FE36019,1,,91.238.7.10:25,*,,"Failed to connect. Error Code: 10061, Error Message: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it 91.238.7.10:25"
Telnet from test exchange to 91.238.7.10 on port 25 also is not working.
