Proxyaddresses in a domain where Exchange has been removed

Scenario - two companies merge, both have on-premises Exchange orgs. Mailboxes are moved to CompanyA's domain, and Exchange is completely removed from CompanyB's domain. Now, several years later, CompanyA is configuring dirsync (AADSync, actually) to sync
both domains to Office 365, and I just noticed that the accounts in CompanyB still have remnants of Exchange attributes, such as the proxyAddresses. Some of these addresses may conflict with the mail-enabled objects in CompanyA, so my question is - should
we make an effort to clear all the proxyAddresses from the accounts in CompanyB prior to the dirsync? If so, what other attributes do I need to be concerned with? Also, do proxyAddresses have any use other than Exchange? I don't want to clear them if it might
cause problems elsewhere.

You're asking what attributes need to be "cleaned up" after a cross-forest migration?  There is no single answer here, as it depends on how the migration was done, but generally speaking the proxyAddresses attribute does a lot of the legwork.
 You should have an accepted domain defined for each of your mailboxes' proxyAddresses.
I've not seen proxyAddresses used outside of Exchange.
This is an approach that might get you started

  • Connection to microsoft exchange has been restored

    Hi,
     Recently we are having a problem where most outlook connections display the message " Connection to microsoft exchange has been resotred".  i rememeber i was palnning to make a change on the cas server for one of the *.exe.config file, but not

    Does any one know of .exe.config file which would cause such a issue?

  • How can I stop music and movies from being automatically deleted from my phone and saved on the cloud? I've just tried to watch a movie on my 2 hour commute, but yet AGAIN it has been removed. I do NOT want to spank all of my data allowance

    How can I stop music and movies from being automatically deleted from my phone and saved on the cloud? I've just tried to watch a movie on my 2 hour commute, but yet AGAIN it has been removed. I do NOT want to spank all of my data allowance downloading it again, especially because (believe it or not) I added it to my phone because that's precisely where I wanted it!! Any help much appreciated

    FYI I had to put this link into firefox to reply - because **** back safari just wouldn't register my clicks to any of the links on the post... Despite reloadeing and even restarting my computer. Totally annoying and a massive pain in the ***.
    But in terms of my initial query; thanks for responding. But no, this is NOT the cause of the problem. I have auto sync and sync over wifi activated, but have also selected manually manage music and videos. Plus, all of my music and videos are on my macbook, absolutely all of it, so if it my phone was syncing with my macbook everything would still be on the phone. Life would be peachy if my phone jsut copied everything that was on my macbook, but unfortuantely it keeps deleting tracks for no apparent reason.
    Any thoughts greatly welcomed, because at the moment i can only conclude that my iphone is crap.

  • I need to be able to find domain controllers that have been removed from the domain but never demoted

    I need to find domain controllers that have been removed but never demoted.
    Here's the story...
    I came on an Active Directory administrator for an organization which has 600+ domain controllers, most running Server 2003, but I have some Server 2008R2. Throughout all this time the organization has had DCs that have stopped working, crashed or failed
    for some reason and all the IT department has done is created another domain controller name it the same thing with an (A), (B) appended to the name and then never removed any of the failed controllers from the directory.
    Thing is this has been going on for quite some time, don’t know for sure how long as I am still trying to clean up DNS replication problems and have been having to go around and reset machine passwords for the forest. What I need to be able to do is to script
    something that will return all the failed DCs so that I can go into the directory and use NTDUTIL to clean the machines. I don’t want to go into the directory and remove a machine that’s still out there. No one in the organization has a list or record of failed
    machines.
    You can see this may be a gargantuan task, but I need to be able to make it easier on 
    myself by finding the machines first and cleaning out DNS, cleaning the DCs out of the “Sites” and cleaning them out of the directory.
    Appreciate any help I can get…

    Hi,
    Thanks for posting in the forum.
    Regarding your question, maybe we should remove these orphaned DC from AD, please try to refer to the following articles to perform the cleanup task.

  • How to show a row has been "removed" from a table

    We maintain rows in a table with a version number which will determine the current set of accounts for a version. I need to be able to show the changes between the versions - when a row was ADDED, REMOVED or there was NO CHANGE. I can work out ADDED and NO_CHANGE without any problem, but I'm not sure how I can determine that a row has been REMOVED when it no longer exists in the next version.
    I have provided an example piece of SQL below:
    with w_acct1 as
    (select 'A1' acct, 0 vers from dual
    union all
    select 'A2' acct, 0 vers from dual
    union all
    select 'A3' acct, 0 vers from dual
    union all
    select 'A1' acct, 1 vers from dual
    union all
    select 'A2' acct, 1 vers from dual
    union all
    select 'A1' acct, 2 vers from dual
    union all
    select 'A4' acct, 2 vers from dual)
    select a.*,
           nvl(lead(acct) over (partition by acct order by vers desc),'NULL') ld,
           case when lead(acct) over (partition by acct order by vers desc) is null then
                   'ADDED'
               when lead(acct) over (partition by acct order by vers desc) = acct then
                   'NO_CHANGE'
               else
                   'REMOVED'
               end add_remove
    from w_acct1 a
    order by vers,acctWhich gives me the following result:
    ACCT VERS LD ADD_REMOVE
    A1     0     NULL     NEW
    A2     0     NULL     NEW
    A3     0     NULL     NEW
    A1     1     A1     NO_CHANGE
    A2     1     A2     NO_CHANGE
    A1     2     A1     NO_CHANGE
    A4     2     NULL     NEW
    The result I want is:
    ACCT VERS LD ADD_REMOVE
    A1     0     NULL     NEW
    A2     0     NULL     NEW
    A3     0     NULL     NEW
    A1     1     A1     NO_CHANGE
    A2     1     A2     NO_CHANGE
    A3     1     NULL     REMOVED
    A1     2     A1     NO_CHANGE
    A2     2     NULL     REMOVED
    A4     2     NULL     NEW
    Note the REMOVED rows associated with the version even though they don't exist in the dataset for that version number.
    Can this be done with analytic functions or some other cool Oracle feature I'm missing?
    Regards
    Richard

    You can't know about a row being removed unless you have a record of that row somewhere, either as a copy of your old data (see example below) or you've recorded the information using delete triggers etc.

  • Not receiving icloud verification email, have checked spam etc..phone is just saying account not verified, the address was linked to my husbands account but has been removed.

    Not receiving icloud verification email, have checked spam etc..phone is just saying account not verified, the address was linked to my husbands account but has been removed, prior to this it was saying it was already in use.
    If i change to an old address it works fine but all my apple equipment uses a current googlemail address and dont want numerous ids
    My itunes account/icloud account only shows this address, albeit on icloud its not verified
    My husbands accounts dont have this address anywhere
    Where is the verification mail going????

    All...sorted so thought i owed it to you all to update...
    As suggested on numerous sites it was in my spam folder....but because i am using googlemail it was in the Googlemail Spam on my phone and online google account, the spam wasnt getting to my outlook account (where i was looking for it!!!)
    As soon as i opened it there they were all 38 verification emails !!!!!
    Hope this helps

  • Risks has been removed but Mitigating Control still stays with the users?

    Hi all,
        I have a situation where after a risk has been removed from the users by removing the violating roles, however the Mitigating Control still remains tagged to the same user. Is there any efficient way of removing Mitigating Controls from users where the risks no longer exists?

    Hi Joseph, thanks for the info. My problem comes in when the user request to have the violating role removed via CUP and it so happens that the Mitigating Control assigned for the old risk still has 6 more months of validity left. It seem like there is no mechanism to auto remove this MC when the role has been removed after the request in CUP have been approved and auto-provision.
    My problem is that there might be many more of such users with redundant MC assigned to them in RAR. I can't find a way to search for such redundant MCs for cleanup. There is a possibility that when the same roles are assigned back to the users via request in CUP, these redundant MC if applicable will cause the Risk Analysis via CUP to not flag out any SoD issue.

  • Goods receipt when PO creator has been removed from org structure ?

    Hello in my organisational structure PPOMA_BBP, i have 2 users, X and Y.
    X has created a PO in the SRM portal.However , X has been removed from the org. structure.
    Is it possible for Y to make the goods recept( that is , Y logs in the portal and makes the goods receipt) ?

    Hi
    Did you try to delete the user ? Did you get any error message?
    Note 1148837 - SRM user cannot be deleted
    When trying to delete an SRM user the system will check if there are still
    related SRM documents in the system. If there are active documents in the
    system the deletion is not possible. This is the correct system behaviour.
    But even if all related SRM documents are archived the deletion is
    sometimes not possible, because there are residual entries in table
    CRMD_PARTNER linked to this user.
    More Terms
    User crmd_partner residual entries deletion active document
    Cause and Prerequisites
    Solution
    The attached report PARTNER_SET_DELETE will display in simulation mode all
    residual entries in table crmd_partner with invalid item or header links
    and in non simulation mode it will delete the corresponding crmd_partner
    entries.

  • In Lion the command to back up library to disc has been removed? How do I do this now?

    In Lion the command to back up library to disc has been removed? How do I do this now? Apple Support has given me a case number and accelerated it with a call back in a few days, and even the techs were surprised by the removal of the ability to incrementally back up to any kind of disc any items added to the iTunes Library since it's last back up.
    While this command was in all previous iterations of iTunes, even most of the techs are working from iTunes 10.3, the Lion version has this removed. Help only mentions Time Machine as the back up method. Sorry, I've had too many hard drives go bad, and not one DVD or CD has failed when I needed to retrieve a past purchase or addition of any kind to the iTunes library.
    Purchasing from the iTunes store just got less viable, IMHO.

    Dave-
    Thanks for the feedback. Those nasty old deprecated features, eh? Seems you are correct that it will now be a third party solution.
    I just finished chatting with Mike Bombich about using his Carbon Copy Cloner 3.4.1 ( http://www.bombich.com/index.html ) to do the job.
    He gave me a rough outline of how to set it up for incremental back up of iTunes ~/Music/iTunes or
    ~/Music/iTunes Music. Creating filters ( http://help.bombich.com/kb/explore/excluding-files-and-folders-from-a-backup-tas k#creating ) tells how to create and save different tasks.
    I'l check it out and report back shortly.

    Thanks Terence
    Totally understand being a new app and not an update.
    So i'm a ammeter photographer and i like the way i can view my photos in iPhoto and i'm happy with the new App for this also, however i like to edit my photos in PS from time to time and i shoot in raw. As i can no longer select edit in external editor from the photo app i tired to drag a RAW photo to PS but this didn't work. i then tried dragging to desktop but this then made a jpeg so i loose my raw advantage. I would like to be able to find my original raw photos easily so i can edit them in PS.
    Hope that makes sense?
