RPC error when configuring Exchange 2013 servers in 2nd site
Hello. I'm running into an error when trying to configure any of my Exchange 2013 servers in my 2nd AD site. To get into the loop of what my server structure looks like, please check below:
Site 1 servers:
DC1 - Domain Controller
DC2 - Domain Controller
CAS1 - CAS server
CAS2 - CAS server
MBX1 - Mailbox server
MBX2 - Mailbox server
MATHAFTMG - TMG server
Site 2 servers:
CCCDC1 - Domain Controller
CCCDC2 - Domain Controller
CCCCAS1 - CAS server
CCCCAS2 - CAS server
CCCMBX1 - MBX server
CCCMBX2 - MBX server
CCCTMG - TMG server
Currently I have a site-to-site vpn connection between site 1 and site 2 TMG servers via Internet connection; I can access the servers of the other site perfectly (whether I am in Site 1 or Site 2).
All user mailboxes are currently in Site 1 MBX servers; when users are in Site 2, they connect to the CAS servers in Site 1 to access their mailboxes.
Many users will stay permanently in Site 2, so it makes sense to have Exchange servers in Site 2 to provide faster access to mailboxes. I created the Site 2 domain controllers, and made sure AD replication is working; and it is. I then added the MBX servers
and CAS servers in Site 2 in this order: CCCMBX1, then CCCCAS1, then CCCMBX2, then CCCCAS2.
All Exchange servers in Site 2 installed beautifully. But then I tried to access the servers via ECP to proceed with the configuration. In ECP, I click on the server link, and all Exchange servers in both sites appear. If I try to configure the virtual directories
of Site 1 CAS servers, no problem. But when I try to configure virtual directories of Site 2 CAS servers, I get this error message:
The task wasn't able to connect to IIS on the server 'CCCCAS1.domain.com'. Make sure that the server exists and can be reached from this computer: The RPC server is unavailable.
The virtual directories issue is just an example. Same thing happens if I try to configure Outlook Anywhere for Site 2 CAS servers.
Users connect to Site 1 CAS servers via mail.domain.com. I have the A record mail.domain.com pointing to the IP address of CAS1 server, and another A record mail.domain.com pointing to the IP address of CAS2 server. Not the best load balancing going on here,
but it works great with Exchange 2013.
From mail.domain.com I can access OWA and ECP internally and externally; no problems there. From ECP I can access and configure any Site 1 Exchange 2013 servers.
The only problem is when I access ECP to configure the Site 2 Exchange 2013 servers, I get the same error message:
The task wasn't able to connect to IIS on the server '<server name>.domain.com'. Make sure that the server exists and can be reached from this computer: The RPC server is unavailable.
Even if I try to access a Site 2 Exchange 2013 server via https://localhost/ecp to configure it, it get the same error message.
I updated all Exchange 2013 servers in both sites to CU2 v2 and rebooted the servers in the proper order; problem still there.
Any clue what might the problem be?
Thank you!

2 Exchange 2013 Servers in 2 sites
Hi. I have 2 Exchange Servers total, one in main site and the other one in a branch ofice. Both of them belongs to the same forest, and also both of them have MBX
and CAS roles installed. The goals is to have them in a Database Copy configuration so both of them have the same DBs in case of an issue with any of them (if this is the proper design configuration).
After 2nd server installation I'm not able to connect to it through PowerShell (even though I'm logged on locally in it) as it redirects the connection to the 1st server. Within ECP (of the primary one) I can't see the 2nd server in the Servers tab, nor
the default DB it hosts.
I'm very confused about what the design must be in order to have them replicated with the same functionality. Would you please advice?
Thanks!
Infrastructure Management Sr. Analyst | MCSA Windows Server 2012As for the design, I would probably add another node in the primary site so you have some local HA. What happened after you forced replication? Did it show up in the EAC? What happens if you go into the shell in the main site and run get-exchangeserver?
Can you also make sure that the Exchange Trusted Subsystem security group is a local administrator on both Exchange Servers? Also, make sure you have a global catalog in each site .

Error 1006 - Changing Ad Site for subnet where exchange 2013 servers was setup
We wanted to change Ad site for subnet where exchange 2013 servers was setup.
When we do that error id 1006 appear on 2 MBX Servers :
The Microsoft Exchange Mailbox Replication service was unable to process jobs in a mailbox database.
Database: Database02
Error: An attempt to logon cross-site for Mdb 'xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx' was prevented to Server 'yyyyyyyy-yyyy-yyyy-yyyy-yyyyyyyyyyyy' in Site 'DomainAAA/Configuration/Sites/SiteB'. Local site is 'DomainAAA/Configuration/Sites/SiteA'.
DomainAAA - Our Domain
SiteA - AD site which temporarily cover subnet A and Subnet B
In subnet A are installed 2 DCs (Global Catalog) and other aplication servers.
In subnet B are installed all EX2013 servers (2 MBX and 2x CAS) ,1 DC (Global Catalog) and other app servers.
SiteB - new created AD site intended for subnet B
These subnets are on diferent physical location.
When we change Ad site for subnetB from the AD siteA to AD SiteB, above error appear.
There is a object ExchEdgeSyncService under the AD site : SiteA , where the installation EX2013 was done.
So do We need to create the new edgesyncservice under the siteB ?
What steps do we have to make ?
Our intention is to eventually remove all servers from the siteA and move to to SiteB.
So that siteA will no longer exist.
Thanks in advance , and sorry for bad english.
Best regardsHi,
Why don't you just extend the VLAN so you don't have to create another site and do changes so much

Configure legacy public folders where user mailboxes are on Exchange 2013 servers
Hello all,
I have mailboxes on an exchange 2013 server than need access to public folders on a 2010 server before I migrate them over. I followed the commands in the TechNet article with the subject "Configure legacy public folders where user mailboxes
are on Exchange 2013 servers" (sorry, I wasn't allowed to insert a link because I wasn't verified?). The problem is when I run the last command of "Set-OrganizationConfig -PublicFoldersEnabled Remote -RemotePublicFolderMailboxes ProxyMailbox1,ProxyMailbox2,ProxyMailbox3"
on the 2013 server, using the mailbox name I had created, it says it cannot be found. Of course I checked and the mailbox exists, is configured properly, and so is the new database. The 2013 EAC also sees the mailbox with no issues.
Can someone tell me why I am getting this error?
Thanks,
ShaibalHi Mavis,
Thank you for your response. I am the full domain admin, and check and was part of both groups mentioned above. Also, I have only one 2010 server with public folder, and so the command I am running on the 2013 looks like this: Set-OrganizationConfig
-PublicFoldersEnabled Remote -RemotePublicFolderMailboxes PFMailbox1. I even just created a second user and mailbox using the console instead of the shell, and still no luck.
Below is the error I get:
[PS] C:\Windows\system32>Set-OrganizationConfig -PublicFoldersEnabled Remote -RemotePublicFolderMailboxes PFMailbox2
Couldn't find object "PFMailbox2". Please make sure that it was spelled correctly or specify a different object.

Probling with Throttling of Emails by Exchange 2013 servers
We are experiecing delay of emails for users because of the Throttlig on Exchange 2013 servers.
This is causing company wide Delay and users are complaining as it takes a lot of time for the queue to get cleared.
We called in Microsoft and they suggested some values changes to msexchangedelivery.exe.config file
We added the following values, but still we face issues when there is Email flood.
Any one faced this or any suggestions that you have.
mdimthyasHi mdimthyas,
Thank you for your question.
Could you tell more details which throttling was configured on Exchange 2013 in organization?
Could you tell me how long was emails in the queue?
Are there any other issue which could help us troubleshoot.
We could remove the customized throttling and re-configure it to check if the issue persist.
If there are any questions regarding this issue, please be free to let me know.

Configuration Exchange 2013 DAG on two Server Data center 2012 with Hyper -V roles
Dears,
I try to planning and installation two hosts ( Data center 2012 servers) then install Hyper-V role on both this server, then create VM on each Data center server to be install Exchange 2013 on them.
After that I want to configure DAG between Exchanges servers, so what are the prerequisite to do that ?
Note: I use external IBM storage that will be located all VMs and DAG
Many thanksHi Moon,
In addition to Gulab's suggestion, I would like to clarify the following things:
1. Yes, we can use Standard or Datacenter version of the Windows Server 2012 operating system to configure Exchange 2013 DAG.
2. Each member of the DAG should be running the same operating system.
3. The DAG with an even number of members should have a witness server. A witness server is a server outside a DAG that's used to achieve and maintain quorum when the DAG has an even number of members.
What's more, here are some helpful articles for your reference.

IDoc adapter inbound channel: Error Error when reading Exchange Profile
Hello Experts,
Currently i am working on an IDOC to file scenario, in which Data will be sent from ECC server (IDOC) to an FTP server via SAP PI, but when i try to send IDOC to PI, i am getting the following error
in Transaction SM58:-
'IDoc adapter inbound channel: Error Error when reading Exchange Profile for system XID and
client 401 occurred in the IS pipeline' .
Can anyone please help me on this.
Thanks & Regards,
Amit NaikHello Experts,
Let me explain to you the whole scenario, We have two servers of PI, 7.1 & 7.0. Now the Java Stack of 7.0 is not working & Cache update of 7.1 is not happening.
Thats why we have linked ABAP stack of 7.0 with Java stack of 7.1. Now we can see the objects created under Java 7.1 in ABAP stack of 7.0 (SXI_CACHE).
Now we have done all the settings to create an IDOC to file scenario. All the RFCs are working fine, but when we send an IDOC from the ECC system to ABAP 7.0, we are getting the following error 'Error while reading exchange profile for system NW' in SM58 .
Now can anyone tell me what exact settings i have to change in the Exchange profile (Java stack of 7.1), so that the Java 7.1 & ABAP 7.0 connection is setup or do i need to change anything else.
Thanks & Regards,

'No such host is known' error when configuring Reporting database
Hi,
We are joining two report server databases using reporting services config manager. The problem is when we are trying to connect database on another machine we are receiving following error at step 'generating Rights script'
System.Net.Sockets.SocketException: No such host is known
at System.Net.Dns.GetAddrInfo(String name)
at System.Net.Dns.InternalGetHostByName(String hostName, Boolean includeIPv6)
at System.Net.Dns.GetHostEntry(String hostNameOrAddress)
at ReportServicesConfigUI.RSDatabase.IsLocalDbServer(String dbServer)

As per step mentioned in following link,
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/sameersurve/archive/2009/06/15/no-such-host-is-known-error-when-configuring-ssrs-2008.aspx
We tried opening port 1434 for the Reportserver db machine. but it didnt worked for me.
Following are points i feel could be the reason of failure,
1. The two machine we are working on are in different domains.
2. The Product version of the two reporting servers are different.
Have anyone experienced this if yes any solution that i can try?Hi Shrikant_k,
If we are using a remote database server for the report server database, we should refer to the following tips:
Enable remote connections. And we should also open your firewall software and open the port that SQL Server listens on. For the default instance, this is typically port 1433 for TCP/IP connections. To verify that the instance accepts remote connections,
please refer to the following article:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms157300(v=sql.105).aspx
When you enable remote connections, the client and server protocols will also be enabled. To verify the protocols are enabled, please see:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms191294(v=sql.105).aspx
When the database server is in a different domain or we are using workgroup security, we must configure the connection to use a SQL Server database login. In this way, we must update the report server database connection every time we change the password
or the account.
When creating a report server database, be aware that not all editions of SQL Server can be used to host the database. The following document is for your reference:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms157285(v=sql.105).aspx

Mailbox migration between two Exchange 2013 servers is horribly slow
Hi,
when migrating mailbox between 2 exchange 2013 servers,it s horribly slow. I have found some articles which describing problems about content indexing and missing AD group. This is not my problem, I have tried solutions but it didn't work. Both exchange
are next to each one, same VLAN, same switch. Just migrating between databases.
When I start batch jobs it is migrating only 1 mailbox at once and speed is really slow (2000 - 3000 mail items per 5 minutes). So mailboxes which have 10GB it's migrating 3 hours. My server is on 1gbps LAN.
I have also checked MsExchangeMailboxReplication.exe.config on both servers:
MaxActiveMovesPerSourceMDB="20"
MaxActiveMovesPerTargetMDB="20"
MaxActiveMovesPerSourceServer="100"
MaxActiveMovesPerTargetServer="100"
MaxTotalRequestsPerMRS="100"
Do you have any idea where to look why only 1 mailbox is migrating at once?
ThanksHello,
For the reason why only 1 mailbox is migrating at once when you start batch jobs, there is no official articles or blog to explain it.
I recommend you check if the speed is slower when you move a smaller mailbox. If the issue doesn't occur, I recommend you set
the AllowLargeItems parameter.
Here are some articles for your reference.

an Exchange 2010 with these characteristics
Site A
- 2 Servers DAG for mailboxes
- 2 Servers Client Access and
Hub Transport in Microsoft
NLB
- 2 Domain Controllers Windows

Site, Site B. When the migration is complete,
the mail system will only be in Site
B.
The connection between Site A and Site
B is a reliable connection.
Is there any problem to upgrade Exchange 2013
to another Site, other than Site
A?

It is like any other Migration (Same Forest) You just need to make sure that AD is been replicated from Site A (Exchange 2010) to Site B (Exchange 2013).
No Network or replication issue between the sites. Having more than 1 DC on Site B would be good idea.
Once you have all these set, rest of the things are same.
Extend the AD Schema.
Deploy the Exchange Server 2013 CU6
Create the Cert request for 2013.
Install Cert on Exchange 2013.
Configure the Virtual Directories for Exchange 2013.
Test the Coexistence between 2010 and 2013.
Perform the Cutover from 2010 to 2013.
Test the Cutover and start the Test migration phase.
Once the test phase is fine, start the full fledge migration.
Move Mailbox and Public Folder Database.

Exchange 2013 migration between AD sites
Hello,
I am preparing a migration from one Exchange 2013 Cu6 server to another 2013 CU6 server in the same domain in a different AD site. Each server is HT and MB server, hosting its own DB. There is no DAG between the 2 servers.
I am planning to use coexistence between the servers during the migration when I move mailboxes from one server to the other. The move should be transparent to the users. Outlook should detect the move and find it automatically.
I configured one namespace for all URLs, identical on both servers like "mail.organization.nl" for AS, OA, OWA, ECP and autodiscover.
Would this work? I read here it will: The article is referrning to a DAG spanned over 2 sites, which I do not have.
http://blog.netwrix.com/2014/03/21/configuring-exchange-2013-for-site-resilience-2/
Any advice on performing this migration without issues?

Mailbox Moves are pretty seamless, so not a concern.
As far as the CAS namespaces. How are you handling that ? Load balancing between the CAS? Round Robin DNS? Or are you going to cut everything over at once and change DNS to point to the new server? Are both CAS accessible from the internet?

Moving 2nd Exchange 2013 server to another site
Hi there, looking for some insight into a task that has been assigned to me. We have two Exchange 2013 servers setup in a DAG environment. I've been asked to move the secondary to another site. If anyone has gone through this process, do you have any suggestions
or tips
Off the top of my head
Maintenance mode enabled on secondary exchange server
Shutdown VM
Copy to External drive
Ship external drive to secondary site
Create VM and assign new IP
Ensure DNS name for secondary is pointing to the new IP
Boot and turn off Maintenance mode on secondary server
Ensure DAG is replicating over
Questions
Do I have do change anything to ensure exchange realizes it's now off site? The new IP that will be assigned is bound to our secondary site in AD. Example 10.333.333.* = DR-SITE.
Anything I've missed in the steps brainstormed above?
Thank you to all who reply. I am somewhat green when it comes to Exchange but am trying my best to research.
-TSGzzI would probably take a different approach if possible:
Build new Exchange Server in New Site (making sure storage passes).
Configure Vdirs and add to dag
Add Database Copies
Once database copies are seeded remove old server from the dag and retire it.
I like this method better, b\c you still keep some high availability while you are getting the second site together. PLuS you don't end up not being able to prune you log files since replication would be so far behind once you stand up the server in
the new site.
If you can't do that your steps look like they cover everything.
