Lync 2010 and Exchange 2007/2013 Co-existence

Hi,
I do not work with Exchange, and am only familiar with how Lync 2010 actually interacts with the product. If today we are working with Exchange 2007, and in the future there are plans to migrate to Exchange 2013, I am assuming there will be some sort
of co-existence required for a period of time.
What I am wondering is if anyone has encountered (or is aware of) any issues that may arise as a result of having Lync 2010 deployed in an environment with both of the above versions of Exchange in parallel.
Would the differences essentially come down to where the user's mailbox was homed? In other words, would a Lync 2010 user receive the integration features that come with the particular version of Exchange they are homed on? Or would having both
versions of Exchange in one environment potentially impact Lync 2010 in some way?
Thanks so much in advance for any help you can provide, as I have had trouble finding answers so far.

sorry to reopen the thread...
Hi all,
Does anyone know of any update regarding the following link ??

ActiveSync 500 error and Exchange 2007/2013 coexistence

Hello,
We have Exchange 2007, and we've deployed Exchange 2013 and coexistence appears to be working. We have done a small pilot migration of 11 users, and I have 2 of those users that are not able to get iPhone/ActiveSync working. OWA and Outlook access
work without a problem. https://testconnectivity.microsoft.com/ is telling me "The test of the FolderSync command failed." and "Exchange
ActiveSync returned an HTTP 500 response (Internal Server Error)"
The error I'm receiving on the mailbox server event log is:
An exception occurred and was handled by Exchange ActiveSync. This may have been caused by an outdated or corrupted Exchange ActiveSync device partnership. This can occur if a user tries to modify the same item from multiple computers. If this is the case,
Exchange ActiveSync will re-create the partnership with the device. Items will be updated at the next synchronization.
URL=
--- Exception start ---
Exception type: Microsoft.Exchange.AirSync.AirSyncPermanentException
Exception message: A null value was received for the NTSD security descriptor of container CN=ExchangeActiveSyncDevices,CN=LASTNAME\, FIRSTNAME.,OU=XXX,OU=People,DC=DOMAIN,DC=local.
Most articles I've found with this issue say to confirm that "Inherit parent permissions" is check on the AD object, but that is already checked?
The funny thing is that most of our pilot users don't have this issue. It is only for some of them.
Any help is appreciated.

An update here, I was able to get the 2 pilot user's iPhone/ActiveSync access working by adding the following permissions by hand:
Add Exchange Servers, in Apply onto select
msExchActiveSyncDevices objects (note it's plural) and selecting
Full Control.
Once I did this, my problems went away.
So the big question is why aren't these permissions in place already? Isn't this something that the adprep/domain prep should have taken care of?
Thanks!

Outlook 2010 and Exchange 2007. Outlook crashes when user opens it. Event ID 55, 100 and 3036

Hello,
We are running Exchange 2007 on our server and our user clients use Outlook 2010. One of my users is having the following issue. Whenever he opens Outlook 2010, it would crash and show this message: "Microsoft Outlook has stopped working. A problem
caused the program to stop working correctly. Please close the program". I tried recreating his Outlook profile and the issue persisted. I also tried to create his Outlook profile on a different computer and same message shows up. Both computers are domain
joined.
I checked Event Viewer both on his computer and the other computer I tried to set up his Outlook profile on. Both machines showed the same three error logs:

This leads me to believe the problem has to do with his Exchange User Mailbox account. But I have no clue what could it be. He is the only user experiencing this problem.
Any help is greatly appreciated!! Thanks!

Hi,
Sorry for my delay. Have the issue been resolved?
If there are too many items in the problematic user's mailbox, please delete some and check whether the Outlook can be opened. Please uncheck Use Exchange Cached mode to use Online mode and confirm if the user can access the mailbox for Outlook.
Also try to connect to this user's maibox from your working machine with Outlook. Then check whether it works.

Co-Existence Lync 2010 and Lync 2013

Hi,
How do we check that CMS is moved from lync 2010 to Lync 2013 in Co-Existance environment lync standard edition.
I know that users are moved form Lync 2010 to Lync 2013 but i don't if CMS is moved? And in the existing co-existence we have two edge servers Lync 2010 and Lync 2013. How can i check if traffic is routing through Lync 2010 or lync 2013.
Because we want to Decommission the Lync 2010 STD Edition before doing this i want to make sure every thing go smooth.
Please help me on this.
Thanks
Whenever you see a helpful reply, click on Vote As Helpful & click on Mark As Answer if a post answers your question.

To find out if the CMS is moved:
Get-CsConfigurationStoreLocation, if it's a standard server it will tell you the pool name. If it's an Enterprise server, it will tell you the SQL server name associated with the pool.
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg412814.aspx
Otherwise it's at the top of the topology builder (the top top part that says Lync Server in the left pane, under the Central Management Server spot in the right pane.
For a full decommission article, here's a decent one with screenshots. As Ben said, if you can advise about the other places we could be more specific.

Unknown Presence in Lync 2010 and Lync 2013 co-existence

I have lync 2010 and lync 2013 in my environment. Everything was working fine except when I moved the DNS of the Lync 2013 pool to the load balancer. When I did that, users on lync2013 could see the presence of users on Lync2010 pool but not vice versa.
I have point the Lyncdiscoverinternal.domain.com to the lync2013 pool DNS. I have opened migration ports on the load balancer but still not working. It works perfectly fine if I point the DNS of the pool to one server directly without going
through the Load balancer VIP.
Am I missing anything here?
Thanks!
Alert from TechNet Posting

Hi Kojo Obeng Antwi,
Please check out the following information.
Deploying DNS load balancing on Front End pools requires you to perform a couple of extra steps with FQDNs and DNS
records.
A pool that uses DNS load balancing must have two FQDNs: the regular pool FQDN that is used by DNS load balancing (such as pool01.contoso.com), and resolves to the physical
IPs of the servers in the pool, and another FQDN for the pool’s Web services (such as web01.contoso.com), which resolves to virtual IP address of the pool.
In Topology Builder, if you want to deploy DNS load balancing for a pool, to create this extra FQDN for the pool’s Web services
you must select the Override internal Web Services pool FQDN check box and type the FQDN, in the Specify the Web Services URLs for this Pool page.
To support the FQDN used by DNS load balancing, you must provision DNS to resolve the pool FQDN (such as pool01.contoso.com) to the IP addresses of all the servers in the pool
(for example, 192.168.1.1, 192.168.1.2, and so on). You should include only the IP addresses of servers that are currently deployed.
Best regards,
Eric

Lync 2010 with Exchange 2010-2013 Migration?

We are installing Lync 2010 for the purpose of internal LAN and Internet/Federated instant messaging, video chat and desktop sharing.
There is no telephone integration and there is no Unified Messaging used in Exchange 2010.
Within a few months after rolling out Lync 2010, Exchange 2010 is going to be migrated to Exchange 2013. Outlook will remain at Office 2010 and Lync client will be 2010. We will continue to not use Exchange Unified Messaging after Exchange is
upgraded to 2013.
Are there any steps required to keep Lync 2010 working normally after the Exchange environment is upgraded from 2010 to 2013 in this scenario?

Hi
During the migration and post migration to EWS URL for the user i reachable by the Lync 2010 Client
And the outlook client is able to establish a Mapi session with the mailbox all should be fine
as best practice please have the Lync 2010 and outlook 2010 client update to the latest CU update
There is known issue when migrating from Exchange 2007 to 2013 good to know information

Need assistance creating applications with superseedence to uninstall Office 2010, Lync 2010 and then install Office 365 click to run 2013

We are getting ready in a few months to uninstall our locally installed Office 2010 and head to the cloud with Office 365 2013. I have created applications to uninstall Office 2010 and Lync 2010 and then added them to the supersedence tab for Office 365
office 2013 click to run with appv5.
When deploying the office 365 2013 application it does not uninstall office 2010 or lync 2010 with the supersedence. I am able to manually uninstall Office 2010 and Lync 2010 with the command lines I am using in the applications.
The application uninstall for Office 2010 is:
The application uninstall is an exe so I created an application, created a deployment type with the location of our Office 2010 admin point, installation program and uninstall program are set with the same line as I have tried to deploy it separately and
also as a supersedence in the Office 365 application setup.exe /uninstall ProPlus /config "\\sccmserver\share\Office2010\ProPlus.ww\silentuninstallconfig.xml. The silentuninstallconfig.xml was created from the original config.xml file and edited
to these settings:<Configuration Product="ProPlus">
<Display Level="none" CompletionNotice="NO" SuppressModal="yes" AcceptEula="yes" />
<Setting Id="Reboot" Value="Never" />
<Setting Id="SETUP_REBOOT" Value="NEVER" />
<OptionState Id="ProductFiles" State="Local" Children="force" />
</Configuration>
The detection method is the folder path to see that office 14 exists. When I deploy this the machines finish with success showing this exists, but does not uninstall Office 2010.
running the command line manually mapped to this location on a machine uninstalls office 2010 without issue.
Lync 2010 uninstall:
Lync is an exe so I am using the LyncSetup.exe /silent /uninstall. The application is in the supersedence tab for Office 365 2013. This never installs. If I create a softare distribution and deploy it on its own it uninstalls without issue.
We are going to use Lync 2013 with our office 365 2013 installation so we need to uninstall this. The detection method for lync is file system folder and the Microsoft lync folder for detection.
MS Office 15 (Office 365) was created with the click to run tool. I can install this with the application I created using the appv5 package created with the click to run tool. The issue is we need Office 2010 and Lync 2010 uninstalled first.
Having both versions of Office installed in test has caused issues where Office 15 365 will not list in add and remove programs and cannot be uninstalled even with the fix it article to remove office 2013.
I have looked at many articles and so far it is not working for us. Any help appreciated to get us to the cloud.
Thanks,
Brit

The applications I have for uninstall of office 2010 and Lync 2010 for some reason do not uninstall. Manually testing the command lines they do. The detection method seems to be hanging things up. On the lync uninstall detection method I have
the setting type of file system, type folder, path c:\program files\ folder name Microsoft Lync.
I highly recommend using something other than a file/folder "exists" detection method. Installers are constantly leaving things behind due to environmental inconsistencies. It may leave files/folders behind with a schedule to delete files on next reboot.
These things are unpredictable and very hard to use. I just use the "HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall" Registry location. There you can actually key off the "Product Version" DWORD as well which gives you an even more accurate method
to determine if the application you are trying to deploy (or expect to exist) is truly there. This, of course, being if you are not using an MSI. If you have MSI technology ALWAYS use the product code unless the person writing the MSI chooses to use the same
product code for every version release of their product. In which case, Use the registry method.
As far as getting the supersedence and everything working. You need to start from the basics. Create Applications for all of the apps you want to remove. Make sure they install and uninstall properly (seems like overkill but it isn't that hard). Once you
have working install/uninstall applications then you can easily apply supersedence to your new applications with a setting of Uninstall on the superseded apps you should have no problem getting rid of them. I have done this for numerous things.
For example, I did this with Cisco Jabber to replace older versions of jabber, older versions of cisco unified personal communicator and lync and OSC. All of these replaced versions had to have an Application but once it was in it took two seconds to apply
all the supersedence rules and now I know when I push that software out no matter version is running on any machine it will pull all the old apps off and put the new one on.

Lync 2010 and Lync 2013 blinking icon in taskbar not working properly

Hi,
We're experiencing a strange behaviour. Lync IM notifications are supposed to work this way below:
1) Notification bubble on the right-bottom corner
2) After a few seconds, a blinking icon in the task bar
3) After a few seconds, a coloured icon remains in the task bar
Some of our users, both Lync 2010 and Lync 2013, go 1) and 2) but then icon won't remain in the task bar, so they don't realize they have a conversation waiting (Windows XP and Windows 7).
If they open the icon, the conversation is there and coloured, and they can answer.
In my computer, it has also happened but most of the time it works fine (testing it, maybe it works 15 times and fails 1). Nevertheless, a lot of people is suffering from this strange behaviour.
We have looked into the causes but haven't found anything.
Any clue?
Thanks!

How long have you seen the problem?
What version of your Lync client? Try to update your Lync client to the latest version.
Try to repair office 2013.
Uninstall and reinstall Lync 2010.
Please install Lync 2013 or Lync 2010 on a fresh installation of Window to check if you can still see this problem.

Problem: Mixed Exchange 2007 / 2013 CAS Servers with wildcard certificates in Europe and non-wildcard Certficate in China

Hi,
we have following problem. We have a mixed multi-domain one-forest AD environment. We also have still a mixed exchange 2007 / 2013 environment. We also have different CAS Servers for 2007 SP3 (RU15) and 2013 (CU8) in europe and one 2007 SP3 (RU15) CAS Server
in China, because of bad connection to Europe. For the Migration to 2013 in Europe we installed a wildcard-certificate *.xyz.com and used the Set-OutlookProvider EXPR -CertPrincipalName msstd:*.xyz.com, so the wildcard certificate is accepted. Everything in
Europe works fine, inside and outside also between exchange 2007 and 2013 (both CAS Server 2013 and 2007 use the same wildcard certificate). But since the change of the Set-OutlookProvider EXPR we are facing problems with our CAS Server in China, because this
server has a different non-wildcard certificate and a different domain name (cas-server.xyz-china.com instead xyz.com). Now we have the problem that this Chinese CAS server the Outlook Anywhere does not work anymore and prompts always for the username. As
I see it is because of the EXPR change. Is it possible to set the the Outlook-Provider EXPR per Cas-Server ? (They also have their own Autodiscover on this front-end server). Because I see that the Outlook-Provider can only be stored forest-wide.
If not the other solution would be to register the chinese cas server in our xyz.com domain and use the same wildcard certificate on this system right ?
Any help would be appreciate….

Yes setting the EXPR value is most likely the cause of your issue. When you set this value you are telling Outlook to only accept connections from connections that have the cert with the subject name you specify here.
Unfortunately, based on my experience I believe this is an organization wide setting and cannot be configured on a CAS by CAS basis (If I'm wrong someone please keep me honest :)).
So the only option would you have is to change all the URLs to be on *.xyz.com domain. There's no need to change the domain the server actually resides on. The other option would be to purchase a UCC Cert with all the names you need and apply
to all your CAS servers and reset the EXPR value.

Phone edition Aries Polycom CX600 coexistence - Lync 2010 and 2013

Hi all,
Currently busy with a Lync 2010 > 2013 migration where Aries Lync phones like Polycom CX 600 (using a blend of USB tethering, PIN authentication as well as common area phones) are involved. Phones have a blend of different CU releases ranging from .4066
(CU5) to .4451 (CU14)
User migration must be done in stages. That’s presenting a challenge in that Lync 2010 and 2013 must coexist for some time, yet providing seamless support for Lync phones.
The normal migration scenario will be based on a site-by-site migration: users are moved from 2010 to 2013, DHCP options for that site are changed to provide relevant Lync phones the new Lync 2013 pool parameters. HOWEVER, there is a considerable number
of users travelling across sites, and it’s likely occurrence that a user still on 2010 would travel to a site migrated to 2013 (including phones). And the other way round can also occur.
Based on this, my questions are:
1) Can a Lync 2010 user sign-in (USB tethering) on a phone if DHCP is providing options for Lync 2013?
2) Can a Lync 2010 user sign-in (PIN auth) on a phone if DHCP is providing options for Lync 2013?
3) Can a Lync 2013 user sign-in (USB tethering) on a phone if DHCP is providing options for Lync 2010?
4) Can a Lync 2013 user sign-in (PIN auth) on a phone if DHCP is providing options for Lync 2010?
Also, is there any dependancy on a specific CU version for the sign-in process to succeed? Note all discovery records are strict domain matching compliant.
I was hoping LPE would feature a redirect mechanism like with desktop client but based on the very little specific literature available, that does not seem the case. Any advice would be very welcome.
thanks all.

Lync Phone Edition coexistance with lync 2010 and 2013

Hi Everyone
I am currently planning a coexistent network between Lync 2010 and 2013 as I need to get 2013 out urgently. My question is around the Lync phone edition and how to get the phone to find the front end to register the phone to depending on which lync
pool the user is configured to use. Right now all phones are configured with DHCP and are configured to use the 2010 front end server to get its cert provisioned. I also use the HP 4110 and 4120 phones in the office.
How should I configure DHCP so that I do not cut my user off if they are moved the 2013 pool?
Many Thanks

Lync 2010 client connecting to 2013 persistent chat server

Since we never had Group Chat in our 2010 environment, I have no idea how it works and now that we have 2013 Persistent Chat, I am struggling with getting the Lync 2010 connected. The 2013 client works just fine as it is integrated into the client. I found
out Lync 2010 needs a separate Chat client to run along side the IM client.
I installed this client but from there I have no idea how to connect it to the 2013 Chat server. I created the endpoint on the Lync 2013 server according to the article
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj204901.aspx but something else needs to be done. I just don't know what. Not even sure where to start looking. Many of our Lync clients have
to use 2010 because the OS is XP so I need to find out how to get these users to work with Persistent Chat.
I am not sure what the point is of creating the End point according to the article. I am sure its necessary but not sure how it fits into the clients using it to connect. What does the article mean when it says "Next, configure Persistent Chat clients
to use that SIP address as their contact object". Do you need Group Chat functioning in 2010 for this to even work?
The problem is we never had Group Chat with 2010 so I am sure there are some settings missing like DNS records etc...

If you have users running legacy clients (such as Microsoft Lync 2010 these users might find the default Persistent Chat URIs difficult to work with and difficult to use when pointing their legacy client towards the pool. Because of this,
administrators need to use the New-CsPersistentChatEndpoint cmdlet to create an additional contact object for the pool, a contact object that provides a friendlier, easier-to-use URI.

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.

Replace Exchange Server 2010 by Exchange Server 2013 in Window 2008 R2 SP1

Hi everybody, My story is I had 2 VM before:
- Project Server 2010 + Active Directory integration with Exchange 2010
- Exchange 2010
But now my customer want to use Exchange 2013. So i created a new VM for installing exchange 2013. But I research and know that installing exchange 2010 and exchange 2013 in same Domain is not recommended. So plz help me find the best way, because I dont
want to create new AD + new Project Server 2
Thanks

Hello,
You posted the same query in a different Project / Project Server forum. It looks like the question is for Exchange / AD and not Project Server or Project related. I can move the post to one of these forums if you like or re post in the Exchange or AD forum.
