DPM 2010 - Exchange Server 2003 Re-Directed Restore

Hello people. I am looking for some help. We currently have DPM 2010 on Windows 2008 R2 backing up Exchange Server 2003 SP2 on Windows 2003. We are trying to migrate our existing Exchange server DBs (physical server) to another Exchange Server 2003(VMware
VM) in the same domain and site. We are trying not to go the P2V route if at all possible. The existing Exchange DBs are about 1.3TB in size. The existing server has 4 Storage Groups, with a total of about 20 mailbox stores. We are trying to
get the data migrated within a 48 hour window, which at this point eliminates moving the mailboxes to the new server using Exchange task - Move Mailbox. I am also thinking RSG would not be a good option for us as the existing mailbox server will remain operational
until all the data has been migrated to the new server.
Is anyone out there aware of a document that walks through the process of doing a re-directed restore of Exchange Server 2003 DBs, backed up using DPM 2010? If a redirected restore can be done, how does AD get updated to reflect the new HomeServer for users'
mailboxes? Can the DBs simply be restored as raw files to the new server and be successfully mounted?
Thank you in advance for your support.

Upgrading Exchange Server 2003 to 2010 to 2013 is worth???

Hello there, I am planning to upgrade about 30 users from exchange server 2003 to 2010 and finally to 2013. Is it worth to upgrade in this way because this steps are hard and very time consuming. What if, if I just copy all the user mailboxes directly to
exchange server 2013 and configure 2013 as a new exchange server and decommission old exchange server 2003?
How to copy user mailboxes to fresh exchange server 2013?
Please help me out.
Thankx

Yes, Export the PST from User Mailbox and Import it into Exchange 2013 Mailbox. But the problem is, you can't install Exchange 2013 in your current Exchange 2003 environment.
Only option is to install Exchange 2010 first and migrate all the users to Exchange 2010. Also Replicate the Public Folders too(If you are using)
Decommission Exchange 2003 entirely. Install Exchange 2013 SP1 and Migrate the User to Exchange 2013.

I am trying to decommission an Exchange 2003 server. It has public folders on it. How do I tell if they are the master replica?

Microsoft Exchange Server 2003 and Windows 8 Compatibility

Is there a fix or workaround for accessing email via Outlook 2013 (Windows 8) when your company uses Microsoft exchange server 2003 and has not plans on upgrading it any time soon. I am a remote employee so I am the only one that has this problem in the
company. I can access email through an owa account but it's a pain. I tried to set up a rule to have all incoming mail forwarded to my gmail account in Outlook 2013, but that did not work. Any other ideas?

If server has enabled ActiveSync you can use Windows 8 Mail Client - works almost like Outlook.
AFAIR Outlook 2013 can't work with Exchange 2003.

Why can't I connect to Exchange Server 2003? I'm using OS Lion. My iphone connects, what am I doing wrong?

Why can't I connect to Exchange Server 2003? I'm using OS Lion. My iphone connects, what am I doing wrong?

the iPhone uses active sync. Desktop clients do not. Desktop clients use another exchange protocol (which i can't remember as i'm not a microsofty).
Just because you can access via active sync doesn't mean you can access it by other methods, and vice versa.

Iphone 3G, Exchange Server 2003 and NOT sending "Read Mail" receipts

I have a 3G Iphone that syncs with Exchange Server 2003. I do NOT want people to see when I read or delete their emails so I have my Outlook account set up that way. It works from my desktop, however, my Iphone still triggers notifications saying whether I read a message or deleted without reading. I haven't found a way to change this on the phone - has anyone else?
Sorry to repost this question, but the first back in March never got any replies, so support suggested I try again. Thanks!

A problem with Win 7 Pro, Outlook Web Access based on Exchange Server 2003, and two different domains

Dear Microsoft Support,
As mentioned in the title,
I have two domains. One is Domain A at HQ. The other one is Domain A at branch office. A laptop having Win 7 Pro OS is a client of Domain A. The Domain A has Exchange Server 2003. Users of Domain B get connected to Exchange Server for email services. In
all clients of the Domain B, IP address of the email server added in C:\Windows\System 32\drivers\etc\host file.
Whereas in the clients of Domain A it was not done, because all the servers including the email server belong to the Domain A.
Now, a user with Domain A's client (it is a laptop) came to Branch office and wanted to access the Outlook (using Outlook Web Access). since there is no IP address added in the Host file of the laptop, connectivity to email is not possible. When I try to
add the IP address, I was not able to do so due to Domain A's security reasons.
So, let me know, is there a way out to add the IP address in the host file of the Domain A's client.
Thanks in advance.
Ravi Sekhar Modukuru

I would suggest adding the mailserver address in Domain B's DNS. Would that be possible?
I agree. The correct solution in this case (since it appears you already have a two-way Domain Trust in place) is to properly configure DNS in Domain 'B' to be a secondary of Domain 'A' and completely eliminate the need to maintain the HOSTS file.

Microsoft Exchange Server 2003 Small Business Server

Has anyone been successful syncing email with a MS Exchange Server 2003 Small Business Server?
My IT guy has tunred on IMAP, but still no luck. Just get a warning message that the iPhone cannot connect to the server.
Thanks.

Turning IMAP on is the 1st step. IT will also need to open that port (143) on the firewall.

Incoming email - Routing rules on exchange server 2003

I am configuring SAP system to receive emails as per note 455140. We currently have only one client and have updated necessary profile parameters including setting SMTP port to 25 for incoming mails. We have specified our enterprise exchange server 2003 as the mail server in SCOT transaction and are able to send out emails from SAP without issues, but cannot receive emails in SAP.
Following note 607108, I am able to receive emails in the SAP system using telnet test (by passing mail server), thereby I believe all relevant configuration settings in SAP system have been correctly maintained. Now, if I try to send an email to SAP user from another SAP system or Microsoft Outlook or Internet, these emails are not being received in SAP. No inbound traces are generated in SAP since the mail has not been received by SAP.
As part of the config, our server admins have set up a rule on mail server to forward specific emails to SAP system. Does anyone have any insight into what might be the issue here? Also, if someone can provide links/directions on how to setup routing rules on exchange server 2003 to forward specific requests to SAP system (I believe this is where our issue is).
Thanks!
Fahad

Hello Markus,
By specific, I meant emails addressed to specific users need to be forwarded to SAP. Instead of specifying *ATcompany.com --> WebASHost:25000, we put in a rule userATcompany.com --> WebASHost:25000
Based on your response, I asked SAP support whether there is such restriction when SU01 email address and exchange email address are same, exchange will not forward to SAP. Below is there response
"SAPconnect like most mail platforms route mails via the email address.
SAP recommends the following:-
UserATClient.SID.company.com
I know that a DNS entry will have to be written for this to be routed
to your Exchange server for relay into SAP.
The only other recommendation is to use the local part of the mail
address to route the mails. This will not require an external DNS
entry but every new user will have to be updated in Exchange.
User.client.sidATcompany.com
There are no other way of correctly routing mails other than these
methods. Thank you."
Now SAP says when email addresses are same and if we put in a rule based on local part of the mail, it should still forward.
Since the issue is through exchange, SAP will not provide further support to resolve this and we cannot go with sub-domains currently due to business requirements.
Any suggestions.
Thanks,
Fahad

Portal integration with Exchange server 2003 issues.

Hello,
We are using NW04s EP 7.0 SP16 and Exchange server 2003. We are trying to perform OWA and Groupware integration. Both the servers are in the same domain.
I have followed all the steps in the notes and documents available there in SDN. There are few issues:
1) The latest KerbMap filter has been configured in Exchange backend server. SAP note 785343 says that the exchange frontend server needs to be configured for anonymous authentication to enable pass-through authentication. But doing this breaks the form based authentication in exchange server, and it also poses security risk when the backend exchange server is behind the firewall. How do we enable pass-through authentication so that the exchange frontend passes the mysapsso2 cookie to the exchange backend server?
2) When I try to create an appointment or try to view the appointments, it gives an error message saying " No logon data found for system Exchange". The Exchange system has been configured for SAP Logon Ticket, and the user mapping fields were left empty. Why should it prompt for user mapping when the logon method is "SAP Logon Ticket"?
There are many documents out there, but none is the latest with clear steps. Can anyone point me in the right direction please?
Thanks,
~Yasin

As far as I remember, when Exchange 2003 is installed on a Domain Controller, it uses the local DC as a GC. You need to set back the 2003 DC as GC and restart it.
I believe, you are aware that demoting/promoting a DC with Exchange server on it is not supported by MS. The best approach is to:
Introduce an Exchange 2010 member server
Move all resources from Exchange 2003 to Exchange 2010
Decommission Exchange 2003
Demote the 2003 DC

Can we install Exchange server 2003, 2007 and 2010 on Server 2012 R2 ?

Sir,
I want to know whether Exchange server 2003, 2007 and 2010 can be installed on Server 2012 R2 or not.
Thanks in advance.

You can only install Exchange 2013 SP1 on Server 2012 R2
As far as I know Exchange 2010 SP3 can't be installed on R2 . The other Exchange Servers are too old

Anybody using MBA OSX able to use "Notes" to Sync with the notes located on a exchange server 2003 pls?

My company is using an Exchange Server 2003 and Im using both an Iphone 5s and a MBA OSX.
All Exchange features are seamless on Iphone (mail, contacts, alendar AND NOTES)
On my laptop MBA:
- I used to use Outlook for mAc in which the notes were working but I had to go away from this (issue rebuilding too often and incompatibility with Wrikes etc.)
- so I now use Mail, Ical, Contacts and ... I wish Notes! - but I cant get Notes to pick up the exchange server notes ... no error message just nothing happens (yes the account exchange is set up for all features and Notes is checked) ... Im puzzled - Am I alone experiencing this please?
Thanks community!

correction: It's SBS 2011 running a strip down version of exchange 2010 ... and my MacBook Air Notes Application wont sync the notes with exchange ... ;-(((

Steps to restore a failed exchange server 2003

If I have a recently taken full backup of my failed server what are the steps to restore it.
I mean, After installing OS, then may I have to create the domain or restoring full backup creates domain automatically?

Hi,
Firstly, I’d like to explain, if you want install the Exchange server on the server you have installed OS, I recommend you just add the server into domain and create the domain on another server. Because it’s not recommended to install Exchange sever on
DC:
