"Message Queued for submission" performance counter high for Exchange Server 2010 Database

Hi,
We are receiving SCOM Alert as "Mail Submission service is experiencing issue: Messages Queued for Submission-sustained for 15 mins-RED (>25)".
After checking the "Messages queued for Submission" counter on the repective server it was found that the value is 66 but when we check the queue viewer we dont observe any messages stuck in Submission queue.
Would like to know what aspects can be checked here, in order to troubleshoot the issue?
The counter shows 0 value in perfmon for all other mailbox databases.
Thanks & Regards.

Hi,
This is a known issue with Exchange Server 2007 and Exchange Server 2010. We do not recommend that you use this counter for health alerts.
I recommend you refer to the following article:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2921142/en-us
It is caused by the MailSubmission service submits a message for delivery multiple times, the counter is incremented two times but decremented only one time. This situation can leave the counter with a positive value even though there
is no message in the queue. When you restart the service, the counter is reset.
Here is an similar thread for your reference:

Any known issue reported for "Rollup 8 for Exchange Server 2010 Service Pack 2"

Hello,
Currently our servers are running with "Exchange 2010 SP2 RU7", we are planning to update the Rollup version to RU8 for SP2.
Is there any knows issues reported for "Rollup 8 for Exchange Server 2010 Service Pack 2" till now ? is it safe to update the RU8 ?
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=41394

(1) I had to roll it back:
The rollup released Tuesday the 9th caused random problems with systems ranging from general slow down to operation failed errors. It didn’t impact everyone at once and seemed to take 48hrs for everyone to have a problem. Rolling
back the update and rebooting the server seemed to resolve the issue.
Issues reported before the general mailflow stopping for everyone:
Nothing major … an occasional operation failed when I hit send but, it will go thru after I hit the send button a couple of times.
A MICROSOFT OUTLOOK BOX APPEARS WITH A TRIANGLE WITH A ! INSIDE IT. THE MESSAGE SAYS THE OPERATION FAILED.
(2)
ANOTHER CODE APPEARED WHEN I TRIED TO SEND THIS E-MAIL SO I CLOSED OUTLOOK AND RE-STARTED OUTLOOK. THE MESSAGE READ, CANNOT CREATE THE E-MAIL MESSAGE BECAUSE A DATA FILE TO SEND AND RECEIVE MESSAGE CANNOT BE FOUND. CHECK YOUR SETTINGS IN THIS MICROSOFT
OUTLOOK PROFILE. IN MICROSOFT WINDOWS, CLICK CONTROL PANEL.CLICK USER ACCOUNTS AND THEN CLICK MAIL. CLICK SHOW PROFILE, AND THEN CLICK PROPERTIES.
When he tries to open an e-mail, he gets an error message.
If he tries to mark an e-mail unread, he gets a different message.

Processor requirments for Exchange Server 2010 roles

I am looking at migrating from Exchange Server 2003 to Exchange Server 2010. My exchange environment has 350 mailboxes. Can anyone tell me how much processing power will be required for each exchange role to run on VMware? I know Microsoft's recommendation is 1GB per core.

Hi Amyraghunath,
It's hard to give general guidance on sizing Exchange 2010 since it is heavily dependent on your specific configuration. The key number to use for sizing the Mailbox server role is to know the number of messages sent/received per day. That number will help you size CPU and memory for your Mailbox server which will ultimately drive the sizing for the other roles.
A good place to start is the following article: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee712771(v=exchg.141).aspx
That article describes the impact of messages sent/received per day has on sizing the Mailbox server and shows the math that is involved as well. Once you know how to size the Mailbox server, you can size the other roles as well.
You can also use the Exchange Mailbox sizing calculator here ( Exchange 2010 Server Role Requirements Calculator - Exchange Team Blog - Site Home - TechNet Blogs), though be careful with this because if you aren't sure what you're entering in here you could end up with incorrect results.
Finally, here are some other great links that should be helpful to you in sizing your Exchange 2010 environment on vSphere:

Uninstall Rollup 4 for Exchange Server 2010

When one of our CAS servers got patched they installed Rollup 4 for Exchange Server 2010 SP3.
Is it ok to unintall the Rollup 4 update? I am not able to update other servers for another month and I need all servers to have the same build.

Hi dirkbucket,
Yes you can go ahead and uninstall the rollup from the exchange server that got installed. This will not result any impact. Once uninstalled please perform complete reboot.
As uninstallation of patches is applicable till Exchange 2010 version on getting them reverted.
"To remove Update Rollup 3 for Exchange Server 2010 RTM, use Add or Remove Programs in
Control Panel. Then, remove update 981401."
Find the url for ref: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/981401/en-us
In Exchange 2013 you will not able to perform reverting of CU other than rebuilding it :(

Exchange 2010 update after Update Rollup 5 for Exchange Server 2010 (KB2407113)

Mine exchange server 2010 standard has Update Rollup 5 for Exchange Server 2010 (KB2407113) as latest update.
Can someone help me which update i can install after this, can i start with
Update Rollup 1 for Exchange Server 2010 SP1.
Many thanks in advance

My recommendation will be:
Remove update roll-up 5
Install SP1 check that everything is working
Install SP2 check that everything is working
Install SP3 check that everything is working
I think it will be risky for you to go straight to SP3.

Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard "Certificate Authority Service" / Exchange Server 2010 EMC not starting and no AD connectivity for authentication.

Hello,
I am a new IT Manager at this company and need assistance big time. Their environment looks as follows:
Server 1. Domain Controller Server (Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard) running active directory.
Server 2. Email Server (Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard) running Exchange Server 2010 .
* Note. No back ups to work with aside from whats mentioned below.
DC had a virus infection causing a lot of issues on the shared network drives 2 days ago locking up all the files with a crypto ransom virus. Running Avast suppressed the infection. Had to recover the file shares which luckily had a back up.
The issue is that the Exchange Server 2 post this lost connectivity with the AD Server 1. Exchange Server 2 when launching EMC could not launch the console stating the following:
"No Exchange servers are available in any Active Directory sites. You can’t connect to remote
Powershell on a computer that only has the Management Tools role installed."
Shortly after I found that it is possible the EMC launcher was corrupt and needed to be reinstalled following another blog post. I deleted the exchange management console.msc per instructions only to discover I couldnt relaunch it because there was
no way how. So I copied another msc file that happened to be on the DC Server 1 back to Exchange Server 2 and got it to launch again.
Another post said that it might be an issue with the Domain Account for the Computer, so to delete it in the AD Server 1 only to find that rejoining it from Exchange Server 2 using Computer>Properties> Chage Settings > Change is greyed out because
it is using the Certificate Authority Service.
I tried manually re-adding the computer in AD and modeling permissions after another server in group settings but no go. After this I was unable to login to the Exchange Server 2 with domain accounts but only local admin, receiving the following Alert:
"The Trust Relationship between this workstation and primary domain failed."
I tried running the Power Shell tools on Exchange Server 2 to rejoing and to reset passwords for domain accounts as noted in some other blogs but no luck as the Server 2 could not make the connection with Server1 or other errors it kept spitting out.
I also during the investigation found the DNS settings were all altered on both the Server 1 and Server 2 which I luckily was able to change back to original because of inventorying it in the beginning when I started.
I need help figuring out if I need to rejoin the Exchange Server 2 manually by disabling the Certificate Authority Service (or removing the CA as listed here:
https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/exchange/en-US/fb23deab-0a12-410d-946c-517d5aea7fae/windows-server-2008-r2-with-certificate-authority-service-to-rejoin-domain?forum=winserversecurity
and getting exchange server to launch again. (Mind you I am relatively fresh to server managing) Please help E-Mail has been down for a whole day now!

Exchange Server 2010 - Receive Connector for Client Computers

I have one customer with a SBS 2011 with Exchange Server 2010 - a pretty standard setup except for some customisation with Receive Connectors in order to cater for an application which is installed on a number of computers that requires to use an SMTP Server
to send notifications. In order to accomplish this (allow to be sent using Exchange Server) we added the IP Address of client computer (which we also set as a DHCP reservation) to a pre-configured Receive Connector (Anonymous setup for Printer/Scanner).
This worked fine, but we now find that there are other applications that require the same function to use SMTP to send.
How should/could this be better configured so an application can send if they authenticate?

Hi
For this you need to create a seperate receive connector to be used for Relay in your organizations.
Follow the below steps
1) Create a dedicated Relay Receive Connector
2) Add only the Ip addresses of the applications which needs to relay on Exchange servers
3) You can use either anonymous or authenticated relay according to your relay config
You can follow the below link as well

There's a pre-release build of the exchange collector available for
2010, just contact NTS.
If you need a full formal release, we're looking to have 2010 and 2013
support by approximately mid-year.

Documentation for getting Webcenter PS4 to work with Exchange Server 2010.

I have a customer who has Microsoft Exchange Server 2010 and wants to have their e-mail in WebCenter Spaces app we have built, using 11.1.1.4 or 11.1.1.5. Do either of these support Xchange Server 2010? Probably not, right? Well has anybody done it and been able to get it to work? Is there any documentation out there that tells how to do it?
Thanks,

This documentation is great. Thanks,
Is there any documentation on this for 11.1.1.6? (PS5)? The documentation you gave me is 11.1.1.5 and it shows Exchange Server 2007. My customer has Exchange Server 2010. Do you know if 11.1.1.5 and/or 11.1.1.6 supports Exchange Server 2010?
Again, thanks for your help.

Exchange 2010 Mailbox automapping issues after updated to Rollup 5 for Exchange Server 2010 SP3

Hi,
i have problem with Outlook Uses who have Full Access on other mailbox.
An authentication window pop up very time a user start Outlook.
If i remove the access everything is ok.
if i insert manual the mailbox everything is ok
The System was for 3 days ago updated to Rollup 5 for Exchange Server 2010 SP3
Before the update, was no issue.
i will appreciated any help
Thanks

Same issue here. Ever since we installed Update Rollup 5 for SP3 Exchange 2010 mailboxes that were auto mapped are not accessible. They all get the same error.
Cannot expand the folder. The set of folders cannot be opened. The attempt to log on to the Microsoft Exchange has failed.
What I have been doing is removing the users permission, then adding them back using the noautomap switch in Powershell. After doing that, the user manually adds the mailbox and all is well.
Just a note here, I suspect it may have something to do with the version of Outlook 2010. We are running an older version here. I think only SP1 with no other incremental updates. Office is up to SP2. Also, one of the users I was working with could not access
the mailbox no matter what we tried but she can walk over to another workstation and open Outlook and access the very same mailbox so that pretty much proves its software related particularly with Outlook.
I cannot reproduce the problem on a workstation (XP) with a newer version of Outlook.
This has been wearing me out and I suspected the Update Rollup all long. Now I am confident as others are having the same problem. If you find out anything on how to fix this other than the steps above, let me know.
