Rename lync server 2013 enterprise edition pool name

Im working in testing environment ,my domain controller fqdn name and my lync server 2013 enterprise pool name was same.i have to change my pool name .please give some suggestion

once a Topology has been published you can not change the FQDN.
Also you can refer shah-Khan answer, it will be helpful for you

How to achieve Multi-Tenant in Lync Server 2013 Enterprise Edition

Hi,
As LHPv2 is discontinued, is anyone has idea how to achieve Multi-Tenant in Lync Server 2013 Enterprise Edition?
e.g users from different tenants should not be able to communicate unless it is allowed either by federation or any other form.

HLB for Lync Server 2013 Standard Edition

Hi Guys,
I am planning to add an additional new Lync Central site with paired Lync Server 2013 standard edition in Primary and DR data centers. with 1 or 2 OWAS Servers in each DCs. No Edge
server in this new Lync central site as we already have an Edge pool in another central site for federation. Only IM & P and Conferencing, no External Access, Mobility and EV.
My question is, for LS2013 Standard edition paired pools in the new Lync Central site. should I use HLB or DNS LB should be ok? as technically we do not have any HA here only DR.
Any advantage using HLB over DNS LB in LS2013 Standard edition?
Thanks for your help.
Cheer....

You typically wouldn't need HLB with standard edition at all. What were you planning to accomplish?

Lync 2013 Enterprise Edition Pool Pairing

Hello
I am trying to understand Lync pool pairing, my question is:
I have two geographically dispersed locations, Site1 and Site2. If I were to do pool pairing, would I create two sites in the topology builder with a separate FE pool for each site or do you create one site with more than one FE pool (or can you only put
one FE pool per site?)
Another part of the question, if I have two sites would they both be active/active where user's would register to both locations and each site would act as a failover for the other, or would all users register to Site1 and if Site1 were to go down, they
would re-register to Site2?
Thanks,

Hi,
Agree with Michael, what’s more, when the failed pool is once more up and running, administrators can then run the Invoke-CsPoolFailBack cmdlet in order to "fail back" users of that pool. If a user is currently logged on to the backup pool then he or she
will be redirected back to their home pool after service has been restored.

Lync Server 2013 Front End Pool Mediation Service only works on one node

Hello, I'm currently experiencing an interesting issue with a Lync 2013 Front End Pool implementation on a customer, and I don't know if this is by design or am I missing something.
We implemented 3 Enterprise Front End Servers in a Pool with a hardware load balancer and we have them configured also as a mediation Pool.
We have a SIP trunk to an Avaya PBX which was perfectly working before on a Lync 2010 Implementation that we migrated to these new 2013 Front End Pools.
Now the SIP traffic is only working when configured directly to one node of the pool. If we configure it to any other node the calls fail. We also tried configuring the HLB for port 5060 for the pool and pointed the PBX to that IP but the calls also fail.
Searching around I read something about that the PBX has to be Lync certified in order to use DNS load balancing to send SIP traffic to the mediation pool, however, I don't think DNS load balancing will work because the other nodes doesn't connect the calls
from the PBX, only one node appears to be listening for the SIP Trunk.
I also restarted the mediation service on one non-working mediation server node and the event viewer on the working mediation server node showed events that it restarted the service, Not the non-working one, it's like only one server from the pool
is doing as mediation server.
So even if I get a Lync Certified PBX/Media Gateway, the mediation service doesn't appear to be load balanced, or how does it work in order to do that?
Thanks.
Eduardo Rojas

Just a few things about what should be happening. Each front-end server should be listening on the port configured in topology builder for the mediation service. So if that is port 5060, verify that you see that port listening on all front-end servers
by running a netstat -ano. From a local workstation, also make sure you can connect to that port via a telnet IPAddress 5060. As you say, you should be able to send any of the three mediation servers an inbound call.
Outbound calls will round robin out of the enterprise pool. So you shouldn't see all of the calls coming out of a single server.
A few other items I would look into:
- Make sure your ports are right. Ensure that you are matching ports on the Avaya and Lync. It's not a hard requirement but makes life easier to troubleshoot. So if the Avaya is 5060, just make sure TCP/5060 enabled in your mediation pools
and that your gateways/trunks are also set to TCP/5060.
- Look outside the Lync Event Viewer and see if anything strange (.net errors) are being tossed anywhere else during startup of the mediation service. I once had to remove the mediation server installer (Program and Features | Remove) and rebootstrap
the server because something went sideways during an install.
Thanks,

Establishing Lync Server 2013 on a Child Domain

Hi,
We want to establish Lync Server 2013 Enterprise Edition on a child-domain. I finished the installation. Now, if i add to users to child domain and enable from Lync Server Control Panel for test, users can be signed in. However, we use child domain for only
domain computers. We want to keep users on parent domain, not child domain.
I can enable users which are on parent domain, but users can not sign in. When i look Lync troobleshooting program, i got this error: "user is not sip enabled"
How can i solve this problem not adding users to child domain?

Check whether the SIP address is enabled for the user
Get-CSUser -Identity <Alias>
SipAddress : sip:[email protected]
Enable-CsUser –Identity "Raji" –RegistrarPool Pool01.Lync.com –SipAddress "sip:[email protected]" –SipDomain Lync.com
Verify the output
Get-CsAdUser | Select-Object DisplayName, SipAddress, UserPrincipalName
Or
Construct a SIP address using the user’s SamAccountName and domain name
The SamAccountName is the user’s logon name: it’s the kenmyer portion of litwareinc\kenmyer. To use the SamAccountName as the SIP address use the –SipAddressType parameter followed by the parameter value SamAccountName:
Enable-CsUser –Identity "Ken Myer" –RegistrarPool atl-cs-001.litwareinc.com –SipAddressType SamAccountName –SipDomain litwareinc.com
Note that you also need to include the –SipDomain parameter followed by the appropriate SIP domain. With both FirstLastName and SamAccountName you must explicitly indicate the SIP domain; Enable-CsUser won’t try to make a “best guess” at determining the domain
name for you.
Use the user’s email address as his or her SIP address
This is kind of a nice option: it simply grabs the user’s email address and uses that same value for his SIP address. (That way, users have just one address to remember.) To use this option, simply include the –SipAddressType parameter followed by the parameter
value EmailAddress:
Enable-CsUser –Identity "Ken Myer" –RegistrarPool atl-cs-001.litwareinc.com –SipAddressType EmailAddress

SCOM 2012 R2 Integration with Lync Server 2013

Hi,
I am trying to configure SCOM 2012 R2 to work with Lync server 2013 standard edition. I have successfully installed and tested Lync Server 2013. But the problem is, I never worked on SCOM application before and I can not find any easy documents online. So
could you please help me and suggest any step by step guide for the same purpose!
BR,

Hi,
Glad to hear that you have solved the issue. For the second question, what did you want to do with the Windows Server (anything to do with Lync Server)? As it is another question, you can also post another case on Technet forum and more engineers will help
you solve the issue.

Microsoft Lync Server 2013, Backup Service user store backup module detected items having pool ownership conflict during import.

Dear Team,
I have two Enterprise lync 2013 pools, abcPool and abcpool1. abcPool1 has got two servers, Server1 and server2. and abcpool has one FE server named "Server 3". and they have pool pairing.
Replication was fine between them when i had only one FE server in each pool, one day FE service broke on one of the FE server on abcpool1 and failed to start so i had to do failover to another pool, at that time i introduced one more FE in abcPool1, that
why now 2 FEs in abcPool2. Server1 FE service was resolved by reinstalling the binaries. However after that im unable to get the backupservice state to normal, i tried the below articles with no luck,

Lync Server 2013 : Export-CsArchivingData Can i get the files or name of files transferred between 2 users

I am using LyncServer 2013 And my Question is :-
Export-CsArchivingData -
By using this Command-let Can i get the files or name of files transferred between 2 users
Whether it is stored in "LcsLog" database ?
If not weather Lync server saves the files (which users are sending to another users ) anywhere on file system, or not ?

Doug Deitterick has a great blog posting that should answer your question: http://blogs.technet.com/b/dodeitte/archive/2013/04/24/archiving-options-in-lync-server-2013.aspx
The actual File is not archived in Lync, but the file name is and will be have either _p2P or _conf at the end of the name to indicate how it was transferred.
Please mark posts as answers/helpful if it answers your question.

Backing Up and Restoring Lync Server 2013/OCS 2007 R2 Co-existence Environment

Hello
I am seeking tips on how to build a replica of a Lync 2013/OCS 2007 R2 production pilot Co-existence environment in a test lab.
Lync 2013 is a standard Edition Pool
OCS 2007 R2 is an Enterprise Pool
Here is what I think...Is this feasible ? appreciate any other idea
1. Get Active Directory to Test Environment
For OCS 2007 R2 Servers
2. Use LCScmd on OCS 2007 R2 Servers to backup Global\Pool\Computer specific settings
3. Backup OCS 2007 R2 on Backend SQL Database
4. Restore data from steps 2 and 3 to equivalent servers created and prepared in test environment
For Lync 2013 SE Servers
5. Use the Lync 2013 Backup and Restore Process to bring up Lync Server 2013 into the test environment
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh202192.aspx
David

That should do it, as you said you'll need Active Directory as well so these accounts line up with something.
It may be easiest to restore into your virtual environment using virtual snapshots or Windows backups and fixing any corruption that may have occurred by restoring what you've backed up.

How do I enforce "Show My Picture" instead of "Hide My Picture" in Lync Server 2013?

I was scouring TechNet and the web for a script that could perform the same task as one that I previously used for Lync 2010.
In Lync 2010, we had already used Lync policy to enforce that only the Active Directory photo could be used. One thing that we couldn't set via policy however was the ability to complete remove the "Hide My Picture" option in Lync 2010 client.
This left users with the ability to freely switch between showing the Corporate photo or no photo. I did eventually find and make use of script that constantly checked for this setting switch, then switched all users back to the desired "Show My Picture"
setting. I don't recall who wrote it, but it's easy to find on technet. As we started to move more and more users to our Lync 2013 enterprise pool, I noted that even though the script was running, the setting seemed to be changeable. A closer look revealed
that the script didn't function correctly against SQL for our 2013 pool.
I took the concept and applied it to Lync Server 2013 after studying the differences in Userdata. In Lync 2013, because UserData is in .zip, you need to convert it to 2010 format XML to use logic intended for Lync 2010. My script will extract 2013 data,
convert it to 2010, query for users who are set to "Hide My Picture" and then export any guilty users to an edited2010 XML. The script then converts this to 2013 Format .zip, and uploads the data for these users only. I chose to use Update-CSUserData
insted of Import-CSUserData as this avoids having to restart my Front End. I then use a scheduled task on my Front End server which runs this script every hour.
Please note: You can use this script, but I guarantee nothing about it's functionality, and I am not responsible for how you positively/negatively use it. You should always test things in a Lab Environment. Furthermore, this script was run on a relatively
smaller Enterprise system in which we are by default set to "Show My Picture" and already assigned as part of our user policy the ForceADPhoto attribute. This means that running the script is less intensive on my FE than say on a FE with 10,000 users
where none of the users were set to "Show My Picture". Please keep this in mind when planning to execute against your FE. You may want to edit my script and insert the -UserFilter or -WhatIf in the Export-CsUserData UpDate-CsUserData.
Anyways, I hope this solves the similar issue for many of you Lync 2013 administrators. Please feel free to share my work with others if it does, and also give this post some good feedback and/or mark my post as the answer to your problem.
Alas, here's the script (save it as a .ps1 , i.e. ForceShowMyPicture.ps1)

The Real Problem is that my Lync HP 4120 Phone can't make a sign in, not from USB cable loging, nor with PIN authentification
When I try to make a login with the USB cable, I set the user and password and the phone says "Connecting to Lync".. "Downloading a certificate" ... "Installing certificate"... "Downloading Certificate"...
"Installing Certificate".. forever
When I try to make a login with PIN Authentification, the phone first displays the following:
Account used is not authorized, Please Contact your support team and then shows this:
An Account matching this phone number cannot be found. Please contact your support team.
The Pin authentification is enable
In the Lync Server Enable Kerberos Authentification, Enable Integrated Windows Authentification and Enable Certificate Authentification are enable
This is the configuration from DHCP

How to reinstall Lync server 2013 Core Component Server Applications

Hi Would like to know how to register back the core server applications and where can i find the priority list. I incidentally
removed the server applications (ClientVersionFilter, IIMFilter, VoIP Apps and EumRouting and Outbouding) when i removed my MSPL script application from the pool. I missed out to put my script
app name after pool name when i run the command remove-cstrustedapplication. Then, it removed all the core apps from that pool.
I found that .am files and .exe files are still in the C:\Program Files\Microsoft Lync Server 2013\Core and tried
to register back using cmdlets but not very sure about the priority of the apps. Or can I install RTCHost.exe? Now Outgoing call is not working. Please kindly help. Thanks in Advance.

Oh.. thank you very much both
Saleesh and Eric. I will try it.
What I did is that I used the cmdlets New-CsServerApplication and registered the server apps (checked the server apps
list from testing fe server) like how I register MSPL script app. But I may miss out some components since testing fe server uses Standard Edition. I registered my
MSPL script app back too, but after a while Lync Front End Service keeps on stopping. I am not sure that
MSPL script or missing components which one causes to stop front end service. Now I am checking the event viewer logs.
If I run add-remove Lync component wizard on the server, will it remove any other settings like removing users from
pool? or it just install/unstall lync server core components only?
Many thanks!

Please help me resolve the Lync server 2013 deployment error: "An error occurred while applying SQL script for the feature BackendStore."

I am getting an error in "Step 2 - Setup or Remove Lync Server Components" of "Install or Update Lync Server System" step.
"An error occured while applying SQL script for the feature BackendStore. For details, see the log file...."
Additionally, all previous steps such as: Prepare Active Directory, Prepare first Standard Edition server, Install Administrative Tools, Create and publish topology are done without any errors. The user that I used to setup the Lync server is member of:
Administrators
CSAdministrator
Domain Admins
Domain Users
Enterprise Admins
Group Policy Creator Owners
RTCComponentUniversalServices
RTCHSUniversalServices
RTCUniversalConfigReplicator
RTCUniversalServerAdmins
Schema Admins
I have tried to re-install all the things and started to setup a new one many times but the same error still occurred. Please see the log below and give me any ideas/solutions to tackle this problem.
