Outlook Anywhere Loosing connection : Outlook Event id 26 and Exchange IIS HTTPERR Log : Connection_Dropped_List_Full at the same time

Hi,
I have a Windows 2008R2 Updated / Exchange 2010 SP3 Rollup 7 (Role CAS,HUB,MBX) with only external users connection : ActiveSync, EWS, OWA, Outlook Anywhere.
4 processors and 24Go of memory are allocated to the Exchange server VM (VMWare).
Netscaller is used as reverse proxy in DMZ.
There is around 500 users connecting with Outlook Anywhere to Exchange. Users are using Outlook 2010 or 2013 with last updates and cache mode enabled (owner mailbox and delegations). Users are location all around the world (around 50 sites). So no users
is domain integrated.
Users are complaining about disconnection, and Outlook freeze (Outlook is not responding). This happened at any point of time during the day, and for different kind of actions (Outlook is just open, Try to press Send button, try to press Transfer button).
The freeze happened randomly for users. I have seen the problem, and Outlook sometimes freeze during few seconds, sometimes during 5 minutes without any reason. (no file copy, no action asked...)
I noticed that freeze are matching with the Outlook event id 26  on the workstation (Connection to the Microsoft Exchange Server has been lost. Outlook will restore the connection when possible). Also, at the same time, I can see around 200 lines in
the IIS HTTPERR Log (Exchange Server : C:\Windows\System32\LogFiles\HTTPERR) the following lines:
2014-11-20 10:39:43 NETSCALLERIP PORT EXCHANGEIP 443 HTTP/1.1 RPC_OUT_DATA /rpc/rpcproxy.dll?EXCHANGEFQDN:6004 - 1 Connection_Dropped_List_Full MSExchangeOutlookAnyWhere

What has been already checked :
Check IOPS: seems to be normal
Check Processor consumption: seems to be normal
Netscaller TimeOut = 8h
Bandwidth where the server is hosted : more than enough
Bandwidth of client internet connection : Traffic do not increase when the problem happen
Firewall TimeOut : seems to be ok
Firewall Protocol Filter : seem to be ok
Workstation MTU : Ok : ping -l -f 1472 = Ok, so best MTU = 1500 (1472+28)
Outlook Profile : Clean Up OST, sync of all folders, download address book.
wireshark on workstation : nothing seems to be wrong but difficult to analyse, so I maybe missed something.
Configuration change on Exchange :
HKLM\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows NT\RPC\MinimumConnectionTimeout = 120
Disable throttling Policy
Adsiedit, change Max Memory alloc for ESE : msExchESEParamCacheSizeMax = 327680 (around 10GB) msExchESEParamCacheSizeMin = 131072 (around 4GB
Adsiedit, change Min Memory alloc for ESE : msExchESEParamCacheSizeMin = 131072 (around 4GB)
Host file : add hostname and FQDN of Exchange Server
Disable IPV6 : HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\services\TCPIP6\Parameters\DisabledComponents = HEX 0xffffffff
IIS : system.applicationHost : webLimits : minBytesPerSecond = 0
Create dedicated IIS AppPool MSExchangeOutlookAnyWhere for /RPC and /RPCWithCert
AppPool MSExchangeOutlookAnyWhere : Regular Time Interval (minutes) : 0
AppPool MSExchangeOutlookAnyWhere : Queue Length : 20000 (Should be the solution but not working)
netsh int tcp set global chimney=disabled
netsh int tcp set global rss=disabled
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters\MaxUserPort = 65534
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters\KeepAliveTime : 300000
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Netlogon\Parameters\MaxConcurrentAPI = 150
IIS machine.config : <system.web> : requestQueueLimit="65535"
Microsoft.Exchange.RpcClientAccess.Service.exe.config <add key=”LoggingTag” value=”ConnectDisconnect, Logon, Failures, ApplicationData, Warnings, Throttling”/>
Uninstall All agents (except Backup Agent)
Uninstall Antivirus
Will be done tonight :
Exchange and DCs : HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Netlogon\Parameters\MaxConcurrentAPI = 100
Exchange IIS : Increase AppPool MSExchangeOutlookAnyWhere Queue Length to 40000
Exchange : decrease HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters\KeepAliveTime to 60000
You're welcome if you have any idea.
Thanks.

Hi,
Thanks for your answer. Here are my comments :
1. Disable IPv6 then restart your Exchange server
Already done since the install of Exchange.
2. Confirm if there is any NLB device in your environment, please remove NLB firm client server
There is only one Exchange server in the Org. So no NLB installed on the server (NLB is used on the Netscaller used as a reverse proxy). In Addition, the article apply for Windows 2008, or the server is installed with Windows 2008 R2.
3. If there is a proxy server configured in IE, please uncheck it
I guess you are talking on the client side. There is no proxy on the client side, Outlook Anywhere connect directly to the internet.
4. Collect more error logs in Event Viewer in Exchange and collect the IIS logs in
folder “c:\inetpub\logs\logfiles\W3SVC1”
the error I reported in the description is from IIS, and always appear when end users report a problem. In W3SVC1 file, there is also errors, but those one appear even if Outlook clients are working fine. So I cannot isolate any specific
error. The most common from W3SVC1 log are :
2014-11-25 08:02:17 EXCHANGEIP POST /autodiscover/autodiscover.xml - 443 - NETSCALLERIP Microsoft+Office/15.0+(Windows+NT+6.1;+Microsoft+Outlook+15.0.4667;+Pro)

  • Is it possible to connect the iPad to an Infocus and a remote for ppt presentations at the same time?

    I've always used PC and I'm planning on making the transition to Mac.  That's why I'm considering buying an iPad. Today I went to Best Buys and the Mac guy told me that it isn't possible to connect the iPad to an Infocus and a remote for ppt presentations at the same time. Is that true?  I'm a speaker and that was the main reason I was considering buying an iPad, so I didn't have to carry my laptop. Thanks for your help!

  • Outlook and owa freezes every day, sometimes at the same time

    Hello,
    I have very strange problem! 2 users complain that the outlook hangs every day, approximately at the same time. But other 200 users work fine. I can't see any error on the mail servers ( two servers exchange 2010 sp 3 with dag) Outlook can hangs for 15 min
    with user, who has mailbox 1,5 Gb and about 3-5 min with user, who has mailbox 150 Mb.
    When outlook hangs, owa logon also hangs and then they start working simultaneously.
    It doesn't depend on the server where I try to run owa. I tried to move mailbox to new database, but it didn't resolve my problem.
    There are no any scheduled tasks on exchange servers at this time. No performans issues. Maybe some problems of connectivity with AD, but I don't see any suspicious event.

    Hi,
    It sounds like mailbox curroption. I'd suggest you move those two mailboxes to another mailbox database, and then try againt to see if this works.
    We may also try New-MailboxRepairRequest. For more information, please refer to:

  • I would like to connect both my iphone and ipod to my bluetooth headphones at the same time. Is there anything that I can buy to accomplish this

    I am trying to connect both my ipod touch 5h gen and also my iphone 5c to my bluetooth headphones at the same time. I have been told because of the way the operating system works this is not possible. I used to be able to do this on my old  non apple handset.
    The reason I would like to do this is because when I am listening to my ipod and have my phone in my pocket it is not connected to bluetooth and I am missing important phone calls some of which are business calls.
    Is there any type of device that i can get from apple to allow this to work.
    Regards
    Bodi

    The iOS implementation of the Bluetooth Protocol does not permit use of a Bluetooth device with more than one source at a time.

  • Outlook 2013 and Lync 2013 suddenly cannot run at the same time

    We recently switched to Office 365 and up until this month's Tuesday Patch Day, everything was working great. As soon as I installed the patches from 3/12/2013. Ever since then I've had the following issue:
    Launch Outlook 2013
    Launch Lync 2013
    Get the following dialog box: "Outlook Data File: The file <filename> is in use and cannot be accessed. Close any application that is using this file, and then try again. You might need to restart your computer."
    Click Ok to dismiss the dialog box. Everything seems to function normally.
    About three minutes later I get the following dialog box: "We're sorry, but Outlook has run into an error that is preventing it from working correctly. Outlook will need to be closed as a result. Would you like us to repair now?"
    Click Close. Everything seems to function normally.
    Steps taken to attempt to a fix:
    I deleted the Outlook profile and recreated it from scratch. No improvement.
    I rebooted the machine. No improvement.
    I repaired the Outlook data file. No improvement.
    Other notes:
    If I start Outlook 2013 by itself, it works fine and no dialog boxes.
    If I start Lync 2013 by itself, it works fine and no dialog boxes.

    Hi all,
    I had the same problem as the original poster, and I fixed it using the method I'm about to describe.  First, let me state that I am using a volume-license version of Office 2013 Standard, installed the conventional way ... we are not using the desktop
    apps available with Office 365 plans E3+E4 or "Midsize Business".
    I had originally installed Lync 2013 using a 'streaming' installer that you find by logging into the Office 365 Portal site -> Office 365 Settings -> Software -> Lync -> Install.
    That installer does not work with the version of Office 2013 I'm using.  I uninstalled Lync, and reinstalled using the links below:
    (32-bit):
    http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=35451
    (64-bit):
    http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=35450
    The version of Lync that you choose (32-bit or 64-bit) has to match the version of Office 2013 you already have installed.  Upon installing the 64-bit version of Lync at the URL above, the error message "Outlook
    Data File: The file <filename> is in use and cannot be accessed." disappeared and Outlook and Lync now happily cooperate.

  • Can i connect my Pebble watch and hands free in my car at the same time?

    Hey guys,
    I am thinking of buying a pebble watch,i'd like to know if it will be possible to have the watch and my handsfree in the car connected both simultaneously via bluetooth? Any input is appreciated ! cheers

    Should work fine; my boyfriend has a Pebble and a Ford...Escape, I think? And he hasn't had any issues with having both connected.
    I don't think you'd be able to pair, say, a bluetooth headset or similar and your handsfree system since they're similar devices (both have speakers/microphones). The Pebble is a different type of device so you should be good.

  • HT1515 Can I use my airport express to connect a printer AND to extend my wifi network at the same time? Or one feature excludes the other? Thanks...

    Yes, the AirPort Express do all that you ask.....providing that it will be extending the network from another Apple router.

  • Cant open multiple profiles at the same time on Outlook.

    So i have done some research and found that you can use command line switches to open different profiles in Outlook.
    e.g. "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office15\OUTLOOK.EXE" /profiles "ProfileName"
    What i want to do is open two different profiles at the same time. So i already have one profile open, i use the method above, however it simply opens a copy of the profile i already have open rather than the one i defined in the command line switch?
    I know it works because if i don't have a profile open it opens the profile i specify. Is this by design? If so what is the point in having a profile switch? If someone could help me get this working it would be great.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Eric,
    Thanks for confirming this. We already have all the mailboxes that she wants on her main profile. The problem is that Outlook cant handle processing all of these at the same time and continuously crashes and hangs. As i said previously the .ost for her profile
    was 16GB, i have managed to reduce to 9GB but Microsoft themselves say that anything above 5GB needs extra hardware power for a good user experience.
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2695805/en-gb 
    Up to 5 gigabytes (GB): This file size should provide a good user experience on most hardware.
    Between 5 and 10 GB: This file size is typically hardware dependent. Therefore, if you have a fast hard disk and lots of RAM, your experience will be better. However, slower hard disk drives,
    such as drives that are typically found on portable computers or early-generation solid-state drives (SSDs), experience some application pauses when the drives respond. 
    More than 10 GB: When the .ost file reaches this size, short pauses begin to occur on most hardware.
    Very large (25 GB or larger): An .ost file of this size increases the frequency of short pauses, especially while you are downloading new email messages. However, you can use Send/Receive
    groups to manually sync your mail. For more information about Send/Receive groups, see the "Are you synchronizing many RSS feeds?" section.
    I find it surprising that you cant have multiple profiles with different mailboxes when you consider you can only have an .ost up 5GB to have a good user experience. Maybe this is something the developers can put into the next version of Outlook? Or release
    as a patch?

  • Connecting to multiple Airport Express base stations at the same time?

    I want to be able to use wireless internet and stream music to my stereo at the same time, but I only have a single internet connection behind my stereo and it's connected to the Pay TV. My options seem to be getting a new line installed behind the stereo so I can insert this into the same Airport Express base station I use for my music, or buying a second Airport Express base station and connecting it to one of the other internet connections in the room, then connecting to both Airport Express base stations at the same time.
    Is this possible? Are there other alternatives?
    Many thanks

    Nate, Welcome to the discussion area!
    Once you have a network, you can connect multiple AirPort Express (AX) to that network (wirelessly or via Ethernet). When your computer joins that network it can access all the AX.
    You could take your current internet connection and run it into an inexpensive router with multiple Ethernet ports (not the AX). If this is a wireless router then your AXs could be located elsewhere and connect as wireless clients to that network. Once you computer joined that network it could stream music to the AXs.

  • Is is possible to open event lists from different tracks at the same time in Logic Pro 9?

    Is it possible to open event lists from two difference tracks in an arrangement at the same time in Logic Pro 9?
    When I switch between tracks the event list swiches as well. Thanks in advance.

    If you deselect the litte chain link icon in the event list window, it will no longer follow your region selection and you can openas many as you need. Also you can select multiple regions and see the inthe SAME window if you select to show multiple regions, and you can have the notes shown in their respective track colors.

  • Airport Extreme N connect to N and G laptop at the same time?

    I'm considering of getting the new airport extreme as one of my new mac book pro is N compatible. But my older one is only G.
    I know the base station can connect to both N and G. But if there are one G only computer in the net work does the base station has to be always on G ? and compromised its full potential of running in N mode? Or can it be at N and G mode simultaneously, allowing the new laptop to connect at N speed and older one at G speed at the same time?
    Thanks for your help !

    This is exactly my question. I have an Apple G base station, a PowerBook and and AX. I'd like to use those in G and run the rest in N.
    Here's what I have: AEBS G, AX, G4 Tower with edimax N card, iMac Aluminum N, Powerbook G and HP AIO G. I want to buy an AEBS N and not have it slow down due to the G, but still run the G devices.
    Based on what I read, I can ethernet my AX to the Extreme N? But that will put it too far away from my stereo. So I have a white G extreme base station, Can I ethernet that to run the G network and use my AX wirelessly as an extender to also hook into the stereo?
    The Edimax PCI N card from OWC for my G4 is not yet installed. I am not 100% positive but I don't think it is 5 GHz. Is that an issue for max thruput? Are there 5 GHz cards made, or do I just suck it up? Does it make much of a difference in speed?
    Would I be better off ethernetting the G4?
    Finally, re the HP wireless AIO, G speed. Will the N network devices be able to print on it if it is connected by a separate G network?
    I use my network as a client-server setup, so the increase in thruput would be welcome but not essential.
    Thanks--hopefully this is not too confusing.

  • How to disable Exchange 2013 Outlook Anywhere for internal Outlook client

    Hello;
    By default, Exchange 2013's Outlook Anywhere is enable for all user mailbox, if I disable the Outlook Anywhere per user mailbox, the user will not able to connect his Outlook client to Exchange 2013.  What is the best method to disable the Outlook anywhere
    on mailbox but let the Outlook 2013 still able access to Exchg server.
    The initial idea is to prevent user from access to company Exchange server from ANYWHERE, we just want to open the Outlook Anywhere for the authorized user only.  Looks like Microsoft did not think about the security.
    thanks!

    thanks!
    I don't understand your request. If you disabled Outlook Anywhere, Outlook will only be able to connect via IMAP or POP3.
    If you want to disable this ability and allow some then perhaps use cas-mailbox to disable in bulk and then enable only those allowed:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb125264(v=exchg.150).aspx
    The MAPIBlockOutlookRpcHttp parameter enables or disables access to the mailbox by using Outlook Anywhere (RPC over HTTP) in Microsoft Outlook.
    Valid values for this parameter are:
    $true   Only Outlook clients that aren't configured to use Outlook Anywhere (RPC over HTTP) are allowed to access the mailbox. By default, Outlook 2013 is configured to use Outlook Anywhere.
    $false   Outlook clients that are configured to use Outlook Anywhere (RPC over HTTP) are allowed to access the mailbox.
    The default value is $false.

  • I updated to ios 7 2 days ago and I synced with my computer for the first time yesterday. Most of my calendar appts and events were wiped off my phone but are still on the computer. I use outlook 2010 and a pc running windows 7.

    I updated my iphone 5 to  ios 7 two days ago and I synced with my computer for the first time yesterday. Most of my calendar appointments and events were wiped off my phone but are still on the computer. I use outlook 2010 and a pc running windows 7. Rebooting the phone and the computer failed to remedy the calendar sync problem.

    Easy solution for restoring lost calendar informaiton, thank goodness.  On your iPhone, go to settings, then to iCloud.  If your Calendar selection is turned off,  turn it on.  Your info should restore.  If your Calendar selection is turned on, then turn it off.  Choose to save calendars when asked.  After it shuts the Calendar off, turn it back on.  Your info should be restored.
    Thank you to Apple support for walking me through this.  Shame on you Apple for not just telling people about this easy fix rather than making us go through all of this pain and worry.

  • Outlook autocomplete cache stops working for multiple users at the same time

    Hi there
    Ever since we upgraded our Exchange 2010 to Exchange 2013 we have had problems with the autocomplete cache in Outlook 2010.
    We have 700 users and about once per week I get a call about the autocomplete cache. A few users are on cached mode, but most use online mode. The problem appears on both, but it can usually be corrected by /cleanautocompletecache.
    Granted, the autocomplete cache gets corrupted sometimes, but it seems to happen a lot for us. I have noticed that often more than one user experiences the problem at the same time, and, since the problem starting after upgrading Exchange, I suspect that
    the issue is with Exchange and not Outlook. Yesterday three users complained about the cache at the same time.
    I know how to get a broken cache going again - that is not the issue. The issue is keeping this from happening so often.
    Anyone out there able to help?
    Thanks!
    /Anders

    Hi ,
    Based on my knowledge , when you tried to send an email to a recipient in the same exchange organisation then the recipient address will be resolved in to legacy dn value and then that email will be delivered to destination mailbox by pointing towards to
    that legacy dn value.
    For the external recipients exchange user the smtp address to get it delivered.
    For your issue :
    Based upon the NDR message , we need to covert those values in to x500 format and add it to respective recipient mailbox as an x500 address.Then These erorrs will happen if the x500 value of the destination recipient is not available on it's maibox
    and that would be the cause of the NDR for most of the times.Some time as you said autocomplete cache would get corrupted on the client end but it is very rare.
    How to convert NDR to x500 address format :
    http://msexchangeguru.com/2012/03/15/x500/
    How to avoid getting such kind of NDR'S :
    https://www.simple-talk.com/sysadmin/exchange/exchange-e-mail-addresses-and-the-outlook-address-cache/
    In case if you don't want the users to use the autocomplete cache when composing the new emails :
    In group policy we can use the  office templates to disable the below mentioned option.
    1.use autocomplete to suggest the names ---> this option will comes under the advanced settings on the outlook client.
    In case if you don't want the users to use the autocomplete cache when composing the new emails as well as if you wanted to delete that autocomplete then you need to choose one more option along with the first one.
    1.Empty autocomplete cache.
    Please reply me if anyhitng is unclear.
    Thanks & Regards S.Nithyanandham
