Hi kayvwar,
I find a similar thread, following is the detailedinformaiton:
This error occurs when on the specify test user group dialog we do not configure an Outlook group as one of the user groups. So for example if we define UserGroup1 as any of the OWA client types and do not add a secondary user group with any of the Outlook client types we will encounter this error. So please add an outlook group as well. Also, after editing, we need to reload it from the "Start a new test" page for Exchange Load Generator to pick up the custom settings.
For more inforamtion about Load Generator, we can refer to the following articles:
Title: Creating and Running the Exchange Load Generator Test
Link: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb508866(v=exchg.80).aspx
Title: Frequently Asked Questions about Exchange Load Generator
Link: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb508898(v=exchg.80).aspx
Meanwhile, we can download the "Microsoft Exchange Load Generator 2013.doc" from website "http://www.microsoft.com/en-in/download/details.aspx?id=40726" which contains the detailed steps of how to use Exchange Load Generator for test.

Please also make sure you run LoadGen as Administrator.
Important!
LoadGen should be used only in laboratories that have no connection to the production environment.

Hi,
This is a RPC issue. Please try to edit the LegacyExchangeDN value from Exchange database in ADSIEdit.

LoadGen 2013 DB initialization problem

I am running Exchange Server 2013 SP1 on Windows Server 2012 R2 and trying to get LoadGen 2013 running.
I get a failure from LoadGen after recipients are created but prior to initialization phase of DBs. There is this popup:
Failed to count users for user group
UserGroup1:System.DirctoryServices.DirectoryServicesCOMException
(0x8007202B): A referral was returned from the server.
at System.DirectoryServices.DirectoryEntry.Bind(Boolean throwlfFail)
at System.DirectoryServices.DirectoryEntry.Bind()
at System.DirectoryServices.DirectoryEntry.get_AdsObject()

at Microsoft.Exchange.Swordfish.GUI.SummaryPage.GetADObjectCount(GlobalSettings settings, String ldapBaseDn, String ldapSearchFilter)
at Microsoft.Exchange.Swordfish.GUI.SummaryPage.BackgroundWorker_DoWork(Object sender, DoWorkEventArgs e)
Note LoadGen is running on the Exchange Server 2013 machine which is also the AD and DNS server for this test case.

Hi RDvirtualization,
Hope you are using the only AD server here, otherwise if you have more it might be due to replication issues.
Secondly deploying Exchange on AD is not a good idea, which might be the actual problem. To me it appears that Exchange is not able to talk to the AD component properly causing this error.
Installing Exchange on a domain controller is not recommended:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms.exch.setupreadiness.warninginstallexchangerolesondomaincontroller(v=exchg.150).aspx
*Exchange services may not start correctly when the domain controller is also a global catalog server.
Looking elsewhere found below:
"A referral is sent by an AD server when it doesn't have the information requested itself, but know that another server have the info. It usually appears in trust environment where a DC can refer to a DC in trusted domain."
Something that LoadGen might be using in the backend:
"LDAP strings can be less than intuitive. LDAP://DC=primary,DC=secondary,DC=com which worked in most cases. But when trying to connect to its sub-domain with full trust, the string had to change to: LDAP://MyDomainController1.primary.secondary.com"

Loadgen 2013 task exception

I'm running a loadgen 2013 simulation for 4,000 2GB mailboxes on 4 Exchange 2013 (WS12 R2 Hyperv) VMs using 13 remote client VMs. The test is for 2 hrs using a 24-hrs for length of day to spread the loads evenly. The test passed with cpu utilization ~60%
but my task exception count range from 20-40 per client. Should I be concern with this task exceptions? If so what can I do to reduce my task exceptions?

Hello,

Exchange LoadGen 2013

I the older versions of Exchange Load Gen 2013 we had something called Heavy Users, Medium users etc. In Loadgen 2013 I do not see something of that sort. All I see
is option to select Outlook_50 outlook_500 etc. If I need to simulate heavy user workload what is the option that I need to be selecting.

Hi kayvwar,
Action Profile: the number of messages are sent per day. The meaning of Outlook_50 is that send 50 message per day, and so on.
Less than 50: light
50-100: average
100-200: heavy
For your question, we can select Outlook_100 and above this amount to simulate a heavy user, for example Outlook_200.
Additional, we can generate the XML file using the GUI, and double check the configuration by generated XML.
Best Regards,
Allen Wang

New Exchange Build CU8 with LoadGen 2013

I cannot initialize mailboxes using loadgen.
I can send email to my install user fine in OWA.
The loadgen init users, they get stuck in OWA at setting the timezone.
I have three servers running 2012R2. They all have all Exchange services.
I have a 4th server only CAS for a future witness for DAG, but no DAG is up yet.
loagen log says nothing very helpful.

I cannot initialize mailboxes using loadgen.
I can send email to my install user fine in OWA.
The loadgen init users, they get stuck in OWA at setting the timezone.
I have three servers running 2012R2. They all have all Exchange services.
I have a 4th server only CAS for a future witness for DAG, but no DAG is up yet.
loagen log says nothing very helpful.

Load gen 2013 Query

Hi,
I have below query in Loadgen 2013. I have gone thorough MS site but still unable to understand or i didn't get answer for below queries
1. what is the meaning of the term Length of a 'simulation day' while creating test?
2. On load gen report, why count of total number of users is always double than count of user provided while creating test (i.e entered no of users at User setting page)?
Thanks & Regards,
Sudhir

I would like to here updates on my query.
Note: kind request, if i have posted my query in in-correct forum, then please move it to correct one.

Difference in stress mode versus non stress mode

When I make use of stress mode (select the check mark) with loadgen 2013 I do not get exceptions reported. However when I use non stress mode there are too many exceptions which are:
Microsoft.Mapi.MapiExceptionNetworkError: MapiExceptionNetworkError: Unable to make connection to the server.
(hr=0x80004005, ec=2423)
I am running loadgen on the exchange server itself and not a different client.

Hi,
Stress mode just executes tasks as quickly as possible based on how quickly tasks are completing. It will ignore the day length and runs the tasks as quickly as possible.
The error when you select non stress mode, it may be caused by RPC issue. More details about it, for your reference:

Exchange Load Generator 2013 "well known" profiles

We are about to start testing Exchange 2013 implementation in new centralised configuration. We have figures for current user behaviour and need to ensure system can support expected workload.
Cannot find accurate documentation that describes what's in the 'well-known' profiles for Exchange load generator 2013. In previous versions, there were 'light', 'medium', 'heavy' and 'extraheavy' profiles that were totally defined within Loadgen.
The only references I can find are in the Exchange Load Generator word document that encourages the use of these without defining any of them.
The only sample I can find is in the profiles directory where there is how-to.txt that has an example of a customized MailboxStoreProfile with WellKnownProfileType "150M".

Like I said in my response to your other post in this thread, I wouldn't try to be too clever with this tool. Tune the parameters to get the number of IOPS you want in your disk subsystem, and then measure the performance. If you can get the
required I/O performance, i.e., 10ms maximum average log write latency and 20ms maximum average database read latency with peaks not exceeding 100ms, while sustaining the required number of IOPS, your storage subsystem is good.

Exchange Load Generator 2013 ActiveSync usage

Exchange Load generator 2013 is announced as supporting ActiveSync. In the modules directory there is a Microsoft.Exchange.Swordfish.Extensions.ActiveSync dll.
I'm looking to find any documentation about how to set this. I am about to conduct a test with a large rate of ActiveSync and need to know how I can specify this. There's nothing I can find in the supplied word document.

Just between you and me, I wouldn't get that clever with LoadGen. It's a great tool for generating transactions primarily for testing disk subsystems, but it's really time consuming to get it configured for testing the various protocols.

Use one account or multiple for 10 domain users of Office 2013 Home & Business

I have 10 seats of the retail version of Office Home & Business 2013 for use in a domain environment. Windows 7 Pro 64, Server 2008R2 environment. No exchange. Blank slate.
Should I install all with the same account for ease of management, or setup a new MS Live account for each user? Can I do either, and what are the advantages to each?
Thank you.

Hi,
Both are ok, but neither is really good.
In your scenario, I suggest you use Office 365 to manage all these, which is more recommended:

Cannot send email from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013 - Coexistence

Existing Exchange 2007 SP3 1 MBX, 2 CAS/HT, 2 ET servers.
I have added an Exchange 2013 server with MBX/CAS role.
Email will flow from Ex2013 server no problem. Mail from Ex2007 systems cannot deliver to Ex2013 boxes, it dies in queue with a 4.4.7 expired message after issuing a delay message.
I can telnet to ports 25, 587,717,465,475, and 2525 from Ex2007 HT role to new Exchange 2013 server. I can send email from Ex2007 HT role server to new Exchange 2013 server using telnet to port 25.
A ‘get-mailbox’ from the Ex2007 HT role server returns the server and database properly on the test users on Exchange 2013 server.
The only strange thing I am seeing is from the Ex2007 systems, a ‘get-exchange server’ command shows the new Ex2013 server as role ‘16439’ which looks to perhaps be normal.
Why is email not flowing to the new users on Exchange 2013?

You should have exchange server authentication ticked in Default Receive connector in Exchange2007.
Exchange 2007 and Exchange 2013 in the same subnet/network. if not please check any spam agent running between the networks. Are you running antispam on Exchange2013 ?

Why does Android Reader smart zoom not work as described on Google Nexus 7 2013 tablet?

The smart zoom feature in Android Acrobat Reader allows you to double tap on a text column and the reader will zoom up to the column in improve readability. This feature works great on the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 smart phone, but only appears to zoom half way on the Google Nexus 7 2013 tablet.
Is this a bug?
Thanks in advance for your replies.

Mid 2013 macbook air keyboard/trackpad stop responding

I have a mid-2013 13" Macbook Air - 512GB SSD, 8GB RAM - 1.7Ghz i7
I spend a good deal of time working at my home, where I have two external monitors (one via USB, one via the thunderbolt port) and a bluetooth wireless mouse and keyboard. Things are great.
I also go on the road, and when I do, I simply unplug my monitors, close the lid, and go.
Lately, I've had some very odd behavior happen which acts a lot like what is described in the latest 13" Macbook Pro Retina EFI fix: http://www.macrumors.com/2013/11/07/apple-releases-fix-for-13-inch-retina-macboo k-pro-keyboardtrackpad-issues/
Here's what happens....when I'm traveling and away from my bluetooth keyboard/mouse, I will open up my MBA and the trackpad and internal keyboard are unresponsive. I can press the power button and get it to turn off...power it back on and am able to use the keyboard to control various boot options (diagnostics, single-user, safe-mode, recovery model, etc). Booting up full, however, the issue will still exist. Looking at the console log, when this is happening, there are a ton (about 4000 every minute) of the following :
11/1/13 7:45:26.000 PM kernel[0]: Error: AppleHSSPIController::doSPITransfer CRC from device was invalid
11/1/13 7:45:26.000 PM kernel[0]: Error: AppleHSSPIController::InterruptOccurred Failed to transfer interrupt data with Err (0xe00002eb)
Eventually, something happens and things start to work -- I will generally see the following in the console log when it starts working:
11/1/13 7:45:27.000 PM kernel[0]: Apple Internal Keyboard / Trackpad::start Start Succeeded
If I let the machine sit at the unlock screen, eventually a dialog comes up and says "unable to find external bluetooth keyboard/mouse..." It says it will continue to search and will pair with one eventually....it's the same message I would get from my mac mini if it couldn't find the bluetooth keyboard (and has no internal/hardwired keyboard).
When it is happening, I can use "cmd-r" to boot into recovery mode and recovery mode will complain about not having a mouse/trackpad - yet the keyboard seems to work to control what happens at boot time.
I called Apple and got sent to the apple store with a "it sounds like a faulty logic board or a connection that needs soldering". The Apple Store "genius" didn't quite think that was the case and has instead suggested I re-install the operating system. I'm non-plussed by both suggestions. This has happened both before and after Mavericks...
On one of my latest trips, I had a case where I took my laptop out on the plane to try to use it...only to have this issue occur. I landed, got to the hotel, tried again and everything worked fine. Went to dinner - leaving my laptop on the desk plugged in - only to come back to have the keyboard unresponsive.... I've now resorted to traveling with my bluetooth keyboard and mouse "just in case".
Any ideas/thoughts?

I will open up my MBA and the trackpad and internal keyboard are unresponsive.
Do four things to test for fault on this,
reset SMC ,
reset NVRAM,
uncheck "put hard disks to sleep"
and UNPAIR both your bluetooth mouse and keyboard from this Mac that you are using with it currently.
yes, the notion that your logic board is at fault is extremely unlikely, additionally (though far more likely) that your Mavericks OS is corrupt.
RESET SMC
Shut down the computer.
Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if its not already connected.
On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time.
Release all the keys and the power button at the same time.
Press the power button to turn on the computer.
Note: The LED on the MagSafe power adapter may change states or temporarily turn off when you reset the SMC.
RESET NVRAM
Shut down your Mac.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command (⌘), Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on the computer.
Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys before the gray screen appears.
Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
Release the keys.
Lastly, go into SYS PREFERENCES > ENERGY > uncheck "Put hard disks to sleep when possible" in both tabs.
Let your Mac go into sleep or close the lid for a few mins. and reopen and verify that your trackpad and mouse are fine. They should be after this,.........
If not contact Apple for full in shop diagnostic, theyll run a hardware test (unlikely causation) and reinstall the OS, then retest and LASTLY replace the logic board (very unlikely).
