Remnants of old Exchange server after migration

Migrated to 2010 and all is well however, the old Exchange server is still referenced in some places. The actual server itself has been decommissioned and re-purposed but has the same fqdn just is not running Exchange 2007 anymore.
How to I manually remove all aspects of the old server without interrupting services on the new 2010 server

Hi Wrangler,

  • Mavericks Mail not working properly with Exchange server after upgrade from Lion

    Mail will no longer maintain a stable connection to my company's Exchange server after upgrading to Mavericks from Lion.  Nothing has been changed on the Exchange server.  It has only partially downloaded the messages that are on the server.  It seems to download current messages when they hit the server.  It has difficulty sending messages.  When I send a message, it gets stuck in the Outbox.  It is constantly losing the connection to the server.  The problem is only occuring with Exchange email.  My iCloud email works properly as well as a POP3 account.

    No shortage of pre-existing threads on Mavericks mail issues...

  • Old exchange server 2007 accounts conflicting with Office365 accounts after migration to the cloud

    Good day,
    We migrated over a month ago from Exchange 2007 to office 365
    We have to offices in two different continents, under one single domain. Office in central America, has it's own IMAP web service hosted on 42inc (jondoe@ cenamer .com), Office in Europe (Profit Center) had it's mail services hosted on premise on exchange
    2007 server(username@ Europe .com).
    Usually employees from Office central America used to visit our Europe office, and we used to make them different email accounts from their 42inc on our exchange 2007. Thus existing in our Global Address Book.
    As we migrated, to office 365, everything falls under one entity, but office Central America didn't want to lose their Name of Recognition so they wanted to keep @cenamer.com emails, but since few people already had @Europe.com mailboxes present.
    We made @cenamer.com as their primary accounts and after we joined some of the employees their existing exchange 2007 mailboxes, we deleted their @Europe.com mailboxes.
    The issue is, in some of our other offices in Europe and Australia, still employees email the office of Central America employees at their old @Europe.com emails, so we added aliases to their @centamer.com as in if Alok Vyas has alok.vyas@ cenamer.com he
    also have alok.vyas@ Europe.com , this way we avoid having assigning another license for his @Europe.com mailbox.
    But that was unsuccessful, employees getting bounced emails saying such email doesn't exist. They still have in the Address Book the old exchange mailbox of Alok when he was visiting
    Please Help.

    Tell them to change the address in their address book.
    If you post an NDR, we might have a better clue as to what is happening.

  • Issues with old calendar items after migration from SBS2008R1 to Windows 2012R2+Exchange 2013

    Hello,
    After migrating a customer from Windows Small Business Server 2008 R1 to Microsoft Windows Server 2012 (DC) and Microsoft Windows Server 2012 & Exchange 2013 there are a few issue regarding
    the GAL and old migrated calender items that we are unable to resolve:
    Old calender items which were Exported to PST when the Server 2008 R1 environment was still live were imported to the new mailbox of the user, located on the Exchange 2013 mail database. This
    seemed to be working just fine.
    The problems arise when a user tries to edit or re-send an old calender item. There actually are 2 problems:
    1. When resending an old calender item, OLD GAL entries are used (even when re-entering the contact details) and the emails are send to nobody and you get the mail back from postmaster
    2. When updating an old calender item you get an error that you do not have permissions, probably because you are NOT the 'old' Exchange user.
    Thanks in advance!

    Did you use Exmerge or similar to export?
    You may have an issue like that explained here.

  • Exchange active sync cannot connect to server after migration mailbox user from exchange 2007 to exchange 2013 coexistence

    Hello, everyone, my name is rafl
    I have a problem with exchange 2013 active sync.
    I have installed exchange 2013 coexistence with legacy exchange 2007, I have to migrate user mailboxes: [email protected] from exchange 2007 to exchange 2013.
    but any problem with active sync connection on the mobile device after moving mailbox user. I reconfigure the exchange ActiveSync external connection domain (latest.domain.com) on mobile device replacing legacy exchange ActiveSync external connection domain
    (legacy.domain.com)
    the process of moving mailboxes successfully without error.
    Access OWA for exchange 2007 and exchange 2013 is running normally
    access mail from Outlook running normally
    Certificate request has been installed and has no problem with it
    The OWA virtual directory is configured for internal and external connections and different from the legacy exchange
    The autodiscover virtual directory is configured for internal and external connections and different from the legacy exchange
    ActiveSync virtual directory is configured for internal and external connections and different from the legacy exchange
    user mailboxes are still on exchange 2007 is not problematic.
    only problem with Exchange Active Sync on mobile devices, where I set up an email with android, iphone, windows phone. the error message: cannot connect to the server.
    but, if I create a new user and create user mailboxes directly in exchange server 2013, ActiveSync can run without error on mobile device, access through OWA, MsOutlook, Outlook Anywhere also run normally.
    only the results of user migration from exchange 2007 to exchange 2013 which is troubled with exchange ActiveSync connection.
    any ideas for this problem, and what should I check on the exchange server ..?

    i have run the activesync test connectivity and get some error :
    Testing TCP port 443 on host domain.co.id to ensure it's listening and open.
    The specified port is either blocked, not listening, or not producing the expected response.

    I have allowed access to port 443 (https) and 80 (http) on the firewall and re-run testconnectivity, but still with the same results. if I enable active sync for users who created directly in Exch 2013 there is no problem with the ActiveSync, just a problem
    for users who moved from Exch 2007 to Exch 2013. @Android, iPhone, and Blackberry the error message "cannot connect to the server"

  • Outlook can't connect with Exchange 2013 after migration from Exchange 2007

    <style type="text/css">P { margin-bottom: 0.21cm; }</style>
    Hello,
    recently we've done a Exchange 2007 sp3 to 2013 sp1. Users can conect perfectly with OWA and with his iphone clients.
    But the problem is they can't connect from his Outlook clients (2010, 2013), both internaly and externaly. Always fails with the message: The Connection to Exchange it is not avaliable.... Can't resolve the name of Exchange server.
    To try to resolve it we've done:
    - Check Outlook anywhere configuration en EAC: it is configure with and external url mail.company.com and internal server.domain.local. The security is the default Negociation, but we've tried all.
    - Check the internal dns, there are records for mail.company.com and exchangeserverdomain.local pointing to the exchange local ip. Also there is a public zone company.com with the record mail.caompany.com pointing to the exchange local ip. Also we've made
    records autodiscover.company.com and autodiscover.domain.local pointing to the exchange local ip.
    - In the public dns from our domain there is the record A and MX pointing our public ip. There aren't any record Autodiscover but we think that the manial conection should work.
    Check certificates: we've made a new self-signed certificate including all this internal and external domains and for all services.
    - Check Outlook Anywhere block: we've cheked.
    Currently server state:
    - Old Exchange 07 server can't start, it was in very bad state and we achieved migrate the mailbox to the new server, after that we tried to uninstall, but it crashes with a public folder replication error. We got uninstall all the roles
    unless the mailbox. After a restart it can't start.
    -The new Exchange 2013 looks great, there isn't any trail of the old server, or we haven't seen anything in the EAC or shell.
    I paste below the result of Microsoft Remote conectivity analaizer, with Outlook anywhere test. It is clear that there is a problem with that.
    Sorry because the test is in spanish and I translated it with google, from here I only can access the tool in spanish.
    We continue to try to resolve the problem.
    Thanks to all in advance!

  • Issue removing Exchange 2007 after migration to 2013

    After migrating relatively successfully from Exchange 2007 to 2013, I am in the process of trying to decommission and uninstall 2007 from the servers. Through this process I have been following a guide found
    here. Our old 2007 servers have been off for over two weeks and it seems like a good time to remove them and reclaim some space. I removed the old OAB and Mailbox DB, however when I attempted to remove the Public Folders so I could take the PF DB out the
    following error appeared.
    Get-PublicFolder : There is no existing PublicFolder that matches the following Identity: '\'.
    I know that there are Public Folders existing as I can see them when I run Get-PublicFolderStatistics:
    I've been back and forth across the forums and web and haven't been able to find a solution to this. Ultimately we never have and are not interested in using public folders but they were originally configured when we had a contractor move us from 2003 >
    2007 several years ago. What I would like is to remove all traces of this garbage and just be able to uninstall/delete the old servers and move on with life.
    Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

    Hi,
    Have you tried to use Exfolders tool to remove PF?
    More details about exfolders tool refer to the following article:

  • Decommissioning an Old Exchange Server

    I have a bit of an issue here at my work, I have been asked to decommission our 2003 exchange servers as we have finally finished moving the last of our users off of the old exchange servers and on to our 2010 server. Currently they route between each-other
    and I need to ensure that I remove the old servers without causing any issues with the 2010 servers. What would be the correct way to approach this?    
    Thank You

    Hi Neurotox,
    Please can check these below,
    Remove Exchange 2003 server ====
    1- Move all mailboxes and public folder content on Exchange
    2003 to an Exchange 2010 environment.
    2- Move each OAB generation process to an Exchange 2010 server.
    3- Remove the Exchange 2003 Mailbox and Public store.
    4- Verify the Internet Mail-Flow is configured to route through your Exchange 2010 transport servers
    5- Verify the Client Access services are configured for Exchange 2010. ActiveSync, OWA, Outlook Anywhere, etc
    6- Delete the routing group connectors that connect the Exchange
    2003 routing groups.
    7- If you have Exchange 2003 recipient policies that are only Mailbox Manager policies and don't define e-mail addresses (they don't have an E-mail Addresses (Policy) tab), delete them
    8- If you have Exchange 2003 policies that are both E-mail Addresses and Mailbox Manager policies (they have both the Mailbox Manager Settings (Policy) tab and the E-mail Addresses (Policy) tab), delete them
    9- Delete the domain Recipient Update Service from ESM
    10- Delete enterprise Recipient Update Service from ADSIEDIT.
    11- Uninstall Exchange 2003 by using Add or Remove Programs from Control Panel.
    12- After the last Exchange 2003 server has been removed from the Exchange 2010 organization, you can also remove the legacy Exchange Domain Servers and Exchange Enterprise Servers security groups.
    Thanks,
    James

  • When sending e-mail messages to a mail-enabled public folder that have been replicated from old Exchange Server 2000/2003/2007, Exchange Server 2010 environment mails are rejected with NDR.

    Hi, I would like to share with you issue that I’ve solved regarding mail-enabled PF that migrated from Exchange 2000/2003/2007 to 2010, I’ve searched & contacted my MVP leader – there’s no official KB regarding this issue right
    now, so I’m posting here in order to share this among others.
    Note: There’s article(s) that talked about PF replication from Exch2000/2003/2007 to 2010 – this is the same issue as well.
    Symptoms
    E-mail messages that been sent to mail-enabled public folder in Exchange Server 2010 environment rejected with the following NDR:
    “#< #5.2.0 smtp;554 5.2.0 STOREDRV.Deliver.Exception:ObjectNotFoundException; Failed to process message due to a permanent exception with message The Active Directory user wasn’t found. ObjectNotFoundException: The Active Directory
    user wasn’t found.> #SMTP#”
    Sometimes Exchange Server 2010 is documented as well Event ID 1020 on the Event Viewer with this information:
    “Log Name: Application
    Source: MSExchange Store Driver
    Event ID: 1020
    Level: Error
    Description:
    The store driver couldn’t deliver the public folder replication message "Hierarchy ([email protected])" because the following error occurred: The Active Directory user wasn't found.”
    Cause
    In an environment where Microsoft Exchange Server 2000 or Microsoft Exchange Server 2003 previously existed, and all those servers have been removed, there is a chance that an Administrative Group (First Administrative Group or another custom Administrative
    Group) remains with a Servers container, but no servers inside it.
    During replication, when the Exchange 2010 Store Driver sees the empty Servers container in Active Directory, it's expecting a System Attendant object inside the container and when it is not found the error occurs.
    Resolution
    To work around the issue, delete the empty Servers container. This can't be done through Exchange System Manager. Use the ADSI Edit tool to remove it using the following steps:
    Warning If you use the ADSI Edit snap-in, the LDP utility, or any other LDAP version 3 client, and you incorrectly modify the attributes of Active Directory objects, you can cause serious problems. These problems may require you to reinstall Microsoft Windows
    2003 Server, Microsoft Windows Server 2008, Microsoft Exchange 2010 Server or both Windows and Exchange. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems that occur if you incorrectly modify Active Directory object attributes can be solved. Modify these attributes
    at your own risk.
    1.      
    Start the ADSI Edit MMC Snap-in. Click Start, then
    Run, and type adsiedit.msc, and then click OK.
    2.      
    Connect & Expand the Configuration Container [YourServer.DNSDomainName.com], and then expand
    CN=Configuration,DC=DNSDomainName,DC=com.
    3.      
    Expand CN=Services, and then CN=Microsoft Exchange, and then expand
    CN=YourOrganizationName.
    4.      
    You will see an empty Administrative Group. Expand the
    CN=YourAdministrativeGroupName.
    5.

    Sounds like you are looking in the wrong Administrative Group container which is why you are seeing your Exchange 2010 servers in there.
    When you install Exchange 2003 only you will see a container named by default as "CN=First Administrative Group" container. But this could be named anything if you changed the Organization Name on the installation when you installed the first
    Exchange 2003 server into the domain/forest. 
    You will notice that when you install Exchange 2010 part of the AD setup is to create a new configuration container and is named by default "CN=First Administrative Group (FYDIBOHF23SPDLT)".
    So it sounds like you are not looking in the right location within ADSIEdit. 
    You may find the following article also helpful for this issue which is the same resolution:

    I recommend though that you ensure your Exchange 2003 servers are fully uninstalled or no longer present in your environment before you go deleting the Servers container though.. The following Microsoft article will help with this:

  • Unable to connect to the MS Exchange server after upgrading to ios 7.1.2

    I received a new iPad 4 through work.  Upgraded to ios 7.1.2, but now I'm not able to connect to the Exchange server.  Contacted IT through work, they have no idea how to correct it.  They say all of my settings are fine.  The error message says "Cannot Get Mail   The connection to the server failed."  Any thoughts?

    Appears to be a wifi connection problem. Did it work prior to the iOS update?
    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    Since it's a company wifi, you won't be able to do many of these.
    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at
    http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are drooping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

    Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
    Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
    You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.
    Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim

  • Can't see Exchange Server after installation

    I know it must be simple, but after installation of Exchange Server 2013 on Server 2012 R2 and getting the "successful" installation message, I can't find the server. It was not problem on Server 2008 and Exchange 2010.
    Any ideas as to where I should go to look for Exchange?  I can't even setup mailboxes???!!!
    I really am lost on this one.

    Hello,
    In addition to above: make sure that Exchange 2013 is installed correctly. Check Exchange installation logs and run the Get-ExchangeServer command using Exchange Management Shell on the new server. You should see both Exchange 2010 and Exchange 2013 servers.
    Hope it helps,

  • Exchange Server 2013 migration and high avalability

    Hello,
    We are using Office 365 online and will be migrating onto an in-house Exchange Server 2013 on a new Windows Server box.
    I have two questions:
    1. What is the best way to migrate everything from the Office 365 to the in house server? Do I setup a hybrid environment and then move the mailboxes and then remove the hybrid environment?
    2. What is the best way to setup high availability for the in-house Exchange server? I found out that in order to setup Exchange 2013 as high availability it needs to run on Windows server 2012 STD or Windows server 2008 Enterprise.
    Please let me know and provide links to step by step instructions if possible.
    Thank you, Karel
    Thank you. Karel Grulich, MCSE, SBS

    Hi Karel,
    Thank you for your question.

    Exchange 2013 high availability could be referred by the following link:

  • What to do with old iPhoto library after migration to Photos

    After migration to Photos my hard drive is maxed out. I want to move the 15gigs old iPhoto library to an external drive to free some space as some have suggested. Others here have said you can just trash the old library. There must be a reason 10.10.3  was designed to retain the iPhoto library. Trash it--really? Another suggestion was to put my 15 gigs on a flash drive. So the question is: does Photos need to be able to see the iPhoto library as it would if on an external drive connected to my Time Machine?

    Thanks for your reply but I'm still confused as to how I lost over 10Gigs of HD space after the migration. I understand the conversion is supposed to create more space, not less.  When I look in the pictures folder in Finder, I see 2 LIbrarys, iPhoto and Photos, each of them approx 15 Gbs. according to the Get Info menu.  I guess what I don't understand is if the iPhotos Library is not needed and is moved to an external drive why that wouldn't free that amount of space.
    Also, if "optimization" is supposed to move "some" high res images to the cloud to make room on the HD, how is it that I find myself with only 1gb left on my HD? What is the criteria that triggers "optimization" and how much room can we expect it to shoot for? There seems to be a variety of answers on this subject, many of them sound like guesses. Apple's explanation is vague about how it works, so hopefully someone has the accurate, in depth scoop on this.
