Will moving an Exchange database cause users to have to restart Outlook?

Hello all,
I am running Exchange Server 2007. I will be using the "Move Database Path" command through the Management Console to move the database from one partition to another. The users are mostly running Outlook 2007, but some users are running Outlook
2010.
My question is, will users have to restart their Outlook clients after the database is moved?
Thanks.

Though a defragmented database is appealing, I believe I will just stick with moving the database itself since it is relatively small. From Jim's answer, it sounds like after the database move that Outlook clients will automatically re-connect without having
to be closed and re-opened.
Thanks for the help!
OK, it's up to you, but pay attention - during database moving, all users will be disconnected for a long time, depends on Database size. When you move one or more mailboxes disconnecting occurs only during switching to another mailbox database and for a few
seconds.

  • Whenever I try to use my macbook, it will work for about 10 min. then the screen will go black, the computer will not respond to my commands, and I have to restart it. Can anyone tell me what's going on, and how to fix it? Thank you!!!

    Hello everyone, like most people on this site, I am having difficulties understanding and fixing my Macbook Pro. About a month ago my computer screen went black, the computer was unresponsive, and it started making a beeping noise. I restarted the computer, and it seemed to have fixed itself. 6 days ago, I put my laptop into it's case with some papers, went home (about 30 min. after putting laptop into case), and opened my bag. My computer's fans were on, the computer was really hot, and when I opened the computer, the screen was black and unresponsive. I turned it off, let it cool down, turned it back on, started to stream a video on Hulu, and about ten minutes after, the screen went black again and the computer was unresponsive. Now everytime I turn it on after about ten to fifteen minutes the screen will go black, the computer will become unresponsive, and I have to shut it off. The weird thing though is that everytime I restart my computer, when I reopen my account, my computer acts as if nothing has happened, and everything I had opened or unsaved is still there without autosave saving the documents.The screen also goes black and the computer becomes unresposive when I move the computer around. I get a lot of pop-up ads and other crap on my computer when I am on the internet. I don't know if one of those pop-up websites might have given me a virus or may be the cause of this problem. I don't now what is wrong with my computer or how to fix it, but if anyone has any advice, I WOULD GREATLY APPRECIATE IT!!!!!!! Thank you very much!!!
    -- Sincerely, A very confused, scared, and hopless Macbok Owner

    To get rid of "pop-up ads and other crap on my computer when I am on the internet", click on Safari in the Menu bar, and select Preferences. Next select Extensions. Delete all of them. Restart Safari.
    The first step in addressing the black screen is an SMC reset.
    Shut down the computer.
    Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if its not already connected.
    On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time.
    Release all the keys and the power button at the same time.
    Press the power button to turn on the computer. 
    Note: The LED on the MagSafe power adapter may change states or temporarily turn off when you reset the SMC.

  • Moving from Exchange 2010 to Exchange Online: AD issue

    Dear All,
    Our company will moving from Exchange 2010 to Exchange Online and we have a on-premise WinSer 2008R2 for AD.
    Currently, user have to login to our domain and use the same ID and PW to access their outlook.
    1.If we move to Exchange online, do we have to do anything with our on-premise AD server?
    2.If user prefer using only one ID and PW for PC to access domain and Exchange online, what should we do?
    3.Is there any point or do we still need current on-premise AD server after we moved to Exchange Online?
    Thank you so much for your attention and help!

  • Maximum number of user mailboxes supported by single Exchange Database in 2007 / 2010 & 2013 ?

    What is the Maximum number of user mailboxes supported by single Exchange Database  in 2007 / 2010 & 2013 ?
    Aditya Mediratta

    Agree with Keith, there is no MB # limit, however there are practical concerns such as DB size and how that effects recoverability as well as performance.   In terms of extremes we had one major educational customer that had 35K Mailboxes in
    a single database so you can utilize a ridiculous # of mailboxes in a DB if desired.  IMO you are better off to keep the # of mailboxes to a reasonable level, i.e. no more than 250-500 mailboxes per DB
    Search, Recover, & Extract Mailboxes, Folders, & Email Items from Offline Exchange Mailbox and Public Folder EDB's and Live Exchange Servers or Import/Migrate direct from Offline EDB to Any Production Exchange Server, even cross version i.e. 2003 -->
    2007 --> 2010 --> 2013 with Lucid8's

  • Mailbox Databases - 1500 users Exchange 2010 DAG

    I have the following setup for a 5 server DAG setup and would like to know the recommended setup for high availability for all user databases. I would like the databases copied to several DAG members servers, but am unsure as to how i should stagger the
    database replication. Please see the drive sizes below and send me feedback/recommendations.
    Each of my DAG member servers (mailbox servers) has the following storage space available:
    C:\60GB(O/S), D:\1TB(Mailboxes), E:\1TB(Mailboxes) F:\(logs)
    How many databases should i create to maximize efficiency and give best user performance/experience?
    To how many DAG member servers should i copy the database in order to achieve a reasonable amount of High Availability?
    Again, I have 1500 users and 2TB per server to accommodate mailbox databases.
    Users average 500MB mailbox quotas.
    Can i create the DAG replicas on the second drive (E:\) or should i just use both terabyte volumes exclusively for users mailboxes?

    Hi,
    5 members in a DAG and one database created for every member, I suggest you create three copys for a database like the following figure. Any two servers corruption couldn't interrupt any client connection.

  • Decommission Exchange 2010 after all mailboxes have been moved to Exchange Online

    Currently very confused on what to do.
    I'm looking to migrate mailboxes to Exchange online using a Hybrid deployment with Dirsync. The users have multiple email and domain addresses. They are moving away from their SBS 2011 and Exch 2010 server. They have an AD and File and Print server. Once
    all mailboxes are moved and mx records are changed and everything is running smootkly. I would like to then decommission SBS and Exch 2010 box and still use DIRsync
    Few questions
    Once I remove Exch 2010 what wont I be able to do. Cant find anything specific online
    Will I still be able to create a user in AD then login to Exchange online and assign a license then
    the user would have mailbox
    Edit a user and add smtp email address.
    As I don’t have many users should I rather use PST migration or will I run into the same problems.

    Yes, you should move the arbitration mailboxes - they are organizational mailboxes, not mailbox database mailboxes.
    Make sure all Exchange resources and operations hosted on this server have been moved to your Exchange 2013 system before you remove Exchange from this server.  If you try to remove Exchange (in either the GUI or the command line) and something is
    still using this server, you will be alerted that something is still using the server and will be told what it is.

  • Moving to Exchange Online from SBS 2003/Exchange 2003 using PST files instead of cut over migration?

    I have a friend who runs a small company with approximately 10 users.  They are currently using Small Business Server 2003 and are using Exchange 2003 to a limited degree.  They are using POP accounts with a hosting company for external email and
    are using Exchange for internal email and calendar sharing.  They have several different versions of Outlook including 2003, 2007, and 2010. Most of the users have two mail accounts configured in Outlook - one Exchange account and one account with a hosting
    company which provides POP mail boxes.  Their MX record currently points to the hosting company not their exchange server.  As far as I know, they do not have any static IP addresses or if they do, they are not using them.
    I do not believe Outlook versions about 2010 will work with Exchange 2003 and their server is getting older and probably needs an upgrade.
    I think they should probably move to Exchange Online since they do not have an IT person on staff.
    I've done some research and it looks like the recommended solution is a cut-over migration from Exchange 2003 but it looks like that would require some changes to the existing SBS 2003 / Exchange 2003 server and I'm not sure that we would be comfortable
    making those changes.
    Would it be possible to sign-up and create the user accounts using Exchange Online and just import the data from the user's PST files?
    I tried doing some research it looks like it is possible but one post mentioned needing to modify the mailbox’s legencyDN or they may not be able to reply to old messages.  How difficult is that?  Can it be done after the messages have been migrated
    to Exchange Online.
    They only have about 10 users so we are looking for the simplest way to move to Exchange Online, not necessarily the fastest or most efficient.
    Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi,
    Based on your description, I understand that you want to migrate Exchange 2003 Public Folders to Exchange Online. We can get following messages from this article:
    Public Folders in Exchange Online
    You can’t migrate public folders directly from Exchange 2003. If you’re running Exchange 2003 in your organization,
    you must move all public folder databases and replicas to Exchange 2007 SP3 RU10 or later. No public folder replicas can remain on Exchange 2003.
    It seems that can’t migrate on-premise Exchange 2003 public folders to an Office 365.
    àOn the client
    side we are using Exchange 2007
    Did you mean Outlook 2007? Please refer to the following thread and check if can help you.

  • Double prompts for Exchange 2013 migrated users: "The microsoft exchange administrator has made a change that requires you to restart outlook"

    I have Exchange 2010 SP3 in my environment and am migrating to Exchange 2013. Whenever a mailbox is migrated, the Outlook 2013 client will prompt the user with a "the exchange administrator has made a change that requires you to restart
    Outlook". When the user does so, he or she is prompted again. After he or she closes and reopens Outlook for the second time, the issue is gone permanently.
    I've seen a number of other posts about repeated prompts like this but I haven't yet found one or someone gets exactly 2 prompts for each client and no more.
    A couple of pieces of information that may be relevant:
    1. On exchange 2013, the authentication method for the internal host name is NTLM
    2. I have not yet migrated public folders from Exchange 2010. I plan to do that after the mailbox migration is complete.
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Hi,
    From your description, after mailboxes are moved from Exchange 2010 to Exchange 2013, users receive the following prompt when opening Outlook.
    The Microsoft Exchange Administrator has made a change that requires you quit and restart Outlook.
    In order to solve this issue, you need to apply the Outlook update that is described in KB 2863911.
    For your reference:
    Outlook 2013 cannot connect after an Exchange Server 2010 mailbox is moved to Exchange Server 2013

  • Currupted "sent items" folder in Outlook 2007 (on Exchange 2007) causing Outlook to crash.

    One user here has a problem when clicking on the "sent items" folder. Outlook hangs for 5 secondes and then crashes. If user logs into OWA, she can
    access the "sent items" folder no problem. I thought it was a messege in the folder that was corrupted so I asked the user to move the messages to a temp folder from OWA. She did that, the folder is now empty but Outlook still crashes. Tried cache
    mode and uncache.
    I tried to delete her sent item folder using MFCMAPI (in the hope the it will recreate a new folder) : right click the folder, selected delete folder, check the
    option "hard deletion" and I get
    Warning: 
    Code: MAPI_W_PARTIAL_COMPLETION == 0x00040680
    Function lpParentFolder->DeleteFolder(
    lpItemEID->cb, (LPENTRYID) lpItemEID->lpb, lpProgress ? (ULONG_PTR)m_hWnd : NULL, lpProgress, ulFlags)
    File .\MsgStoreDlg.cpp
    Line 991 
    One more test I did: I copied the sent items folder to a pst, moved the pst to my computer and when I try to open the folder from the PST, my Outlook would freeze
    and crash. Isn't interesting?
    Am I missing something here? Has someone encounter this problem before? Any other idea on how it could be resolved?
    This issue started on Exchange 2003. We are now moving to Exchange 2007. I moved her mailbox to the new server in the hope that any mailbox problem will be filtered
    and removed. I still have the issue..
    env:
    Exchange 2007 running on Win2008
    PC:
    Windows Vista sp1, outlook 2007 (user was getting same issue under Win2k with Outlook 2003)

    Couple steps you may apply...
    1. Repair the offline file with a Microsoft utility called SCANOST.exe. I’ve seen this file reside in a number of different locations, mainly within Program
    Files. It might be best to search for it with Windows or Google Desktop. SCANPST.exe will also work, though you’ll have to go digging for your outlook.ost, which should be near c:\Documents and Settings\ %profile%\ Local Settings\ Application Data\ Microsoft\
    Outlook\ outlook.ost. If your file is significant in size, you’ll save a lot of time with the repair operation by not creating a backup. Because if the repair finishes successfully and Outlook still bombs, you’ll need to.
    2. Shutdown Outlook completely, including any runaway outlook.exe processes in the task manager. Open Mail in the Control Panel and before you delete your
    profile completely, write down the server settings! There’s no need to worry about backing up your mail as it’s stored on the Exchange server. (Essentially, you’re deleting that outlook.ost when you drop your mail profile.) Now, start Outlook and it will create
    a new profile, where you’ll configure the server with the information you wrote down previously.

  • Moving A Confluence Database

    Has anyone moved a Confluence Database before?
    I need to move it as the Server it is currently sitting on is predominantly a development ant test platform.
    Both SQL Server instances are the same version and both instances are on clustered enviornments hosted by the same nodes.
    Thanks
    Please click "Mark As Answer" if my post helped. Tony C.

    Please check the below link:
    https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/DOC/Migrating+Confluence+Between+Servers
    Method one – standard procedure
    Step 1: Take note of your add-ons
    Take note of the add-ons (plugins) currently installed and enabled in Confluence, so that you can reinstate them later. Make a note of the following for each add-on:
    Add-on name
    Version
    Enabled or disabled status. This is useful if you have enabled or disabled modules yourself, making your configuration differ from the default.
    Step 2: Back up your data
    Create an XML backup of your existing data, via the Confluence administration console. See Manually Backing Up the Site. Make a note of the location
    where you put the XML file. You will need it later to import your Confluence data into your new database.
    Shut down Confluence.
    Make a copy of the
    Confluence Home and other important directories. This is a precautionary measure, to ensure you can recover your data if it is mistakenly overwritten.
    If you are using an external database, make a separate backup using the utilities that were installed with that database. This also is a precautionary measure.
    Step 3: Set up the new database
    Choose the
    database setup instructions for your new database, and follow those instructions to do the following:
    Install the database server.
    Perform any required configuration of the database server, as instructed.
    Add the Confluence database and user. Make a note of the username and password that you define in this step. You will need them later, when running the Confluence Setup Wizard.
    Step 4. Install Confluence (same version number) in a new location
    Now you will install Confluence again, with a different home directory path and installation path.
    Note: You must use the same version of Confluence as the existing installation. (If you want to upgrade Confluence, you must do it as a separate step.) For example, if your current site is running Confluence 5.1.2, your new installation
    must also be Confluence 5.1.2.
    When running the
    Confluence installer:
    Choose Custom Install. (Do not choose to upgrade your existing installation.)
    Choose a new destination directory. This is the installation directory for your new Confluence. It must not be the same as the existing Confluence installation.
    Choose a new home directory. This is the data directory for your new Confluence. It must not be the same as the existing Confluence installation.
    Step 5. Download and install the database driver if necessary
    Note that Confluence bundles some database drivers, but you'll need to install the driver yourself if it is not bundled. Follow the
    database setup instructions for your new database, to download and install the database driver if necessary.
    Step 6. Run the Confluence setup wizard and copy your data to your new database
    When running the
    Confluence setup wizard:
    Enter your license key, as usual.
    Choose Production Installation as the installation type.
    In the database configuration step, choose your new database type from the dropdown menu, then choose
    External Database.
    Choose the connection type: Direct JDBC or Datasource. If you are not sure which, choose 'Direct JDBC'. This is the most common connection type.
    When prompted for the database user and password, supply the credentials you defined earlier when adding the Confluence database to your database server.
    On the load content step, choose Restore From Backup. This is where you will import the data from your XML backup. There are two options for accessing the XML file:
    Browse to the location of your XML backup on your network, and choose
    Upload and Restore.
    Alternatively, put the XML file in the Confluence home directory of the new site (<CONFLUENCE-HOME-DIRECTORY>\restore) then choose
    Restore.
    Note: If you choose not to restore during the Confluence setup wizard, you can do the import later. Go to the Confluence administration console and choose to restore an XML backup. See
    Site Backup and Restore.
    Step 7. Re-install your add-ons
    Re-install any add-ons (plugins) that are not bundled with Confluence.
    Use the same version of the add-on as on your old Confluence site.
    The data created by the add-ons will already exist in your new Confluence site, because it is included in the XML backup.
    Step 8. Check settings for new machine
    If you are moving Confluence to a different machine, you need to check the following settings:
    Configure your new base URL. See
    Configuring the Server Base URL.
    Check your application links. See
    Linking to Another Application.
    Update any gadget subscriptions from external sites pointing to this Confluence site. For example, if your JIRA site subscribes to Confluence gadgets, you will need to update your JIRA site. See
    Adding JIRA Gadgets to a Confluence Page.
    Review any other resources that other systems are consuming from Confluence.
    Method two – for installations with a large volume of attachments
    Before you start
    Before proceeding with these instructions please check the following.
    Your existing installation must be Confluence 2.2 or later.
    Your attachments must be stored in the file system, not in your database. (To migrate between attachment storage systems, see
    Attachment Storage Configuration.)
    The instructions below will only work if both of the above are true.
    Step 1: Take note of your add-ons
    Take note of the add-ons (plugins) currently installed and enabled in Confluence, so that you can reinstate them later. Make a note of the following for each add-on:
    Add-on name
    Version
    Enabled or disabled status. This is useful if you have enabled or disabled modules yourself, making your configuration differ from the default.
    Step 2: Back up your data
    Create an XML backup of your existing data, via the Confluence administration console. See Manually Backing Up the Site. Make a note of the location
    where you put the XML file. You will need it later to import your Confluence data into your new database.
    Shut down Confluence.
    Make a copy of the attachments directory (<CONFLUENCE-HOME-DIRECTORY>\attachments) in your Confluence Home directory. You will need it later to copy your Confluence attachments data into your new Confluence installation.
    If you are using an external database, make a separate backup using the utilities that were installed with that database. This also is a precautionary measure.
    Step 3: Set up the new database
    Choose the
    database setup instructions for your new database, and follow those instructions to do the following:
    Install the database server.
    Perform any required configuration of the database server, as instructed.
    Add the Confluence database and user. Make a note of the username and password that you define in this step. You will need them later, when running the Confluence Setup Wizard.
    Step 4. Install Confluence (same version number) in a new location
    Now you will install Confluence again, with a different home directory path and installation path.
    Note: You must use the same version of Confluence as the existing installation. (If you want to upgrade Confluence, you must do it as a separate step.) For example, if your current site is running Confluence 5.1.2, your new installation
    must also be Confluence 5.1.2.

    Confluence installer:
    Choose Custom Install. (Do not choose to upgrade your existing installation.)
    Choose a new destination directory. This is the installation directory for your new Confluence. It must not be the same as the existing Confluence installation.
    Choose a new home directory. This is the data directory for your new Confluence. It must not be the same as the existing Confluence installation.
    Step 5. Download and install the database driver if necessary
    Note that Confluence bundles some database drivers, but you'll need to install the driver yourself if it is not bundled. Follow the
    database setup instructions for your new database, to download and install the database driver if necessary.
    Step 6. Run the Confluence setup wizard and copy your data to your new database
    When running the
    Confluence setup wizard:
    Enter your license key, as usual.
    Choose Production Installation as the installation type.
    In the database configuration step, choose your new database type from the dropdown menu, then choose
    External Database.
    Choose the connection type: Direct JDBC or Datasource. If you are not sure which, choose 'Direct JDBC'. This is the most common connection type.
    When prompted for the database user and password, supply the credentials you defined earlier when adding the Confluence database to your database server.
    On the load content step, choose Restore From Backup. This is where you will import the data from your XML backup. There are two options for accessing the XML file:

    Restore.
    Note: If you choose not to restore during the Confluence setup wizard, you can do the import later. Go to the Confluence administration console and choose to restore an XML backup. See
    Site Backup and Restore.
    Step 7: Copy your attachments across
    Copy the contents of the attachments directory (<CONFLUENCE-HOME-DIRECTORY>\attachments) from your old Confluence Home directory to your new Confluence Home directory.
    Step 8. Re-install your add-ons
    Re-install any add-ons (plugins) that are not bundled with Confluence.
    Use the same version of the add-on as on your old Confluence site.
    The data created by the add-ons will already exist in your new Confluence site, because it is included in the XML backup.
    Step 9. Check settings for new machine

  • Mounting an old Exchange database file for recovery.

    Can we safely and without disturbing the production Exchange 2010 server mount an old database file from a year ago backup using (New-MailboxDatabase -Recovery) to mount the database then recover an old user mailbox.

    I believe that is no problem because a newly mounted database isn't pointed to by anything by default since it will have a different name.  User mailboxes have static entries for the database they point to.

  • Will Mail For Exchange sync calendar and contacts ...

    Dear fellow Nokia Users,
    I have had my E71 for 3 weeks and I am very happy with it!
    I am running a small company, and I am considering moving our email from IMAP to Exchange. As I have understood things, there is an application to install to use MFE.
    Will calendar and contact be synced on the phone, or is it just email?
    Thanks and kind regards,
    Jesper
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    You need a Microsoft Exchange Server for Mail for EXCHANGE to work.
    For push mail to work with Exchange the MfE client uses Microsoft Exchange Activesync to connect to the server.
    For IMAP - I think you'll need Nokia Messaging.
    If you have an Exchange Server, then your content from your Outlook based service such as your calender contacts and tasks as well as your mail will work fine.
    I rent an Exchange Service from one and one that works very well with the E71.

  • Exchange Online: Migrating User Data to New Employee

    I'm sorry if this has been discussed already but all my searches for migrating, moving, or transferring all pointed to discussions regarding entire systems rather than users on the same system.  Further, I'm not asking anyone to write a script for me,
    I'm just trying to figure out if I'm re-inventing the wheel and just haven't found an existing script or am just plain doing it wrong.
    We are using Exchange Online (Office 365) without any sort of AD sync.  When a user leaves the company their addresses and mailbox data all need to get moved to their replacement and/or supervisor.  Sometimes, we have to temporarily remove the
    destination user's quotas to be able to receive this influx of data. These individual steps can be done via the admin console but I'm wondering if anyone has put it all together in a script.
      Thanks,
       Bryan

    Now, it doesn't surprise me that no one had written that _exact_ script.  I'm not asking anyone to and am capable to doing it myself provided it's possible via the various cmdlets.  However, I am surprised something along those lines hasn't been
    created.  All my searches yielded thousands of results dealing with the migration from one version of Exchange to another.  Yes, you can use Outlook but even for a medium sized company like the one I work at that is cumbersome and time consuming.
    You will not find the exact script but there are many scripts in the Gallery showing how to create and mange users. You will need to learn PowerShell to understand these as well as learn how to use the Exchange shell.
    Start small.  Try and create a script that connects to Exchange and retrives the user in question.  Liook at how PowerShell uses "Get" and "Set" commands to update objects.  In an afternoon of truying the examples you will have enough information
    to write your script and maybe ask a specific question when you get confused.
    Here are a whole list of articles on how to use PowerShell with Office 365.

  • Exchange 2013 SP1 users randomly prompted with "The Microsoft Exchange Administrator has made a change that requires you quit and restart Outlook"

    I got a call to check an issue with a Exchange Server 2013 SP1 environment recently. All server was upgraded from Exchange server 2013 CU2 to Exchange Server 2013 SP1. It was done successfully but many users were being randomly prompted with a popup in their outlook
    client with the following message:-
    “The Microsoft Exchange Administrator has made a change that requires you quit and restart Outlook”
    Although there wasn’t any changes of late in the environment there were random popups like these for multiple users. As the behaviour was not consistent and effecting the entire upgration population
    Please suggest us how to resolve the issue.

    Hi,
    Does the issue happen to all Outlook 2013 users? Please create a new Outlook profile to have a try.
    If it fails, please check the msExchHomePublicMDB value in ADSI Edit:
    1. In Adsiedit, expand Configuration-->CN=Services -> CN=Microsoft Exchange -> CN=domain -> CN=Administrative Groups -> CN=Exchange Administrative Group -> CN=Databases.
    2. Right-click the listed database > Properties.
    3. Check whether the msExchHomePublicMDB value is set to an available value. Please change the value to <not set>.
    4. Click OK.
    Then check whether the issue persists.
    Thanks,
