Windows Azure and Exchange Server

Hi,
Do Azure VMs support installation of Exchange Server 2010 or 2013. I am sure technically you can install.
QUESTION IS: But is that a supported scenario (like sql server 2012)?

  • Windows azure and project server

    Hello,
    I am investigating the possibilities of hosting MS Project server on windows azure.  I have questions as follows:
    - Can MS project server 2010 be installed on azure
    - if I have a license of MS project 2010 and on azure I install the same version can I use the same license without purchasing a new one for MS project server?
    - I found this link http://www.windowsazure.com/en-us/pricing/calculator/?scenario=full# for azure pricing calculations, but I do not see there sharepoint cost and project server cost. What will be approximate cost for these two platforms on azure?
    Also please let me know if there is some other information that I may need regarding this hosting.
    Thank you,

    Hi,
    From my research, As Azure does support the creating of Virtual Machines there is nothing to stop you using this environment to install SQL, SharePoint and Project Server. This is a fully supported environment, All Microsoft software that is installed in
    the Windows Azure Virtual Machine environment must be properly licensed. By default, Windows Azure Virtual Machines include a license for use of Windows Server in the Windows Azure environment. Certain Windows Azure Virtual Machine offerings may also include
    additional Microsoft software on a per-hour or evaluation basis. Licenses for other software must be obtained separately. For information about Microsoft’s License Mobility program see
    Volume Licensing. In some cases, specific versions of Microsoft server software are required for support. These versions are noted in following article.
    # http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2721672/en-us
    Details:
    Microsoft Project Server
    Microsoft Project Server 2013 and later versions are supported.
    Microsoft SharePoint Server
    Microsoft SharePoint Server 2010 and later versions are supported on Windows Azure Virtual Machines.
    Microsoft doesn't look inside your VMs, from my experience, if you have the licensed, you will not be charged for Microsoft Project Server. Hope it helps.

  • Deploying Windows Server 2012 and Exchange Server 2013

    Hi All,
    Our Clinet is planning to implement Exchange Server 2013 as an email solution. There is no Active Directory Domain exists in the environment. So, we have planned to configure a Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard as a Domain Controller and Exchange
    Server 2013 Standard would be installed on another Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard.
    The setup would be for 250 users. Please guide me about the Cost of OS + Exchnage and CAL for 250 Users.
    Warm Regards,
    Prosenjit Sen
    Thanks & Regards, Prosenjit Sen.

    Another option would be to consider signing up for Office 365 instead of setting up the hardware and software for such a small number of users.  It will take a long time for the cost of the hardware, maintenance, and support to be less costly than Office
    365, if it would ever be less expensive.  There is a lot of maintenance required for Exchange, so unless your client already has someone experienced in configuring and maintaining Exchange, there is a lot of expense in bringing someone up to speed to
    perform those functions capably.
    Just a suggestion.  I do not work for Microsoft and I have no financial incentive to propose an Office 365 environment.  I just know that if I were running my own business, I would have to be convinced that my business required its own internal
    mail system when there are so many fully functional and capable mail systems available via subscription.

  • Upgrading from SBS 2008 and Exchange Server 2007 and Adding Modest Failover Protection

    I haven't seen anyone describe this scenario, so maybe it can't be done, but it seems it should work. Can someone either confirm this is viable or set me straight and tell me it's not wise (and if not, why not).
    I currently have SBS 2008 (2008 Server + Exchange Server 2007 + some other components). I use redirected folders so all my user data is stored primarily on the server, and then sync'd with their local harddrives for roaming use and as an additional
    backup precaution. I want to upgrade to a modern version of Exchange (don't care too much about the underlying server OS, but seems like a good time to upgrade everything). I also want to improve the reliability for rapid recovery in the event of a system
    failure. I have always felt nervous with SBS because it only runs on a single server.
    My plan is:
    Install Windows Server 2012 Standard on a new server machine
    Join that new server to the existing SBS domain and sync the users, etc.
    Install Exchange Server 2013 on the new 2012 Server
    Migrate the existing Exchange data and account info to the new server
    Demote the SBS Server and promote the new server to primary DC
    Reformat the old SBS server and install Windows Server 2012 on it too, and join it to the domain as a second DC
    Set up DFS Replication and keep all my user data folders between the two servers (so if one server fails, the other can take over, just not automatically like with a cluster)
    Install Exchange Server 2013 on the reformatted 2012 Server box (so second instance on the domain) and set it up to sync with the first Exchange Server 2013 via DAG (so if either computer crashes, the other can take over for both Exchange Server and file
    services)
    Wouldn't that give me a complete slow-response failover system without the need for setting up a cluster (I know a cluster would provide instant failover protection, but I don't need that kind of speed - a manual switchover in the rare event of a server
    failure is acceptable for us)? I could do this using cheap hardware for each server, because unless both servers fail at the same time, clients can point to the other server. And because it's not a formal cluster, I don't need to buy anything for a shared
    SAN. This seems like such an obvious more cost-effective solution for a small network, I don't understand why this isn't a common approach, which makes me wonder if there is some reason it won't work.
    Any suggestions or feedback? Are Redirected Folders still recommended for users on a Server 2012-based domain?
    Thanks,
    Colin
    Colin

    Ed, thanks again for your help. OK, so here's my updated plan (I realize I should probably check on some of these pieces on the Server group, instead of this Exchange group).
    Constraints/objectives:
    None of the machines are truly server grade hardware, but only 5 people on the network, so performance is generally not an issue, unless a given server is just pegged on CPU or HD due to its own internal maintenance tasks and can't respond to user requests.
    Haven't seen any problems, since upgrading server from 4GB RAM to 8GB a few years ago.
    Not going to buy any new hardware at this time, but do have several unused consumer-grade computers I can deploy as wimpy or moderate servers.
    Main issue is to limit repair time in the event of a system failure (instant failover is not required, but want to be able to restore network functions within less than 24 hours in the event of a hardware failure) and minimize time spent on IT
    maintenance.
    Because of light IT maintenance (not anyone's primary job and we're too small to justify a dedicated IT person or to pay for outside help), almost every touch takes me research and time to re-learn what I haven't done in weeks, months, or years -- so also
    want to keep all IT tasks as simple as possible.
    We philosophically want to invest now for the next 5 years and avoid ongoing cloud fees (so zero interest in Windows Server Essentials with Exchange Online)
    A little nervous about using VM's, just because I never have before, but I do respect that's probably the right way to do many of these things...
    Currently I have SBS 2008 (Windows Server 2008 R2, Exchange Server 2007, WSUS 3, all with latest SP's, also includes SharePoint and other stuff, but I don't really care about most of it) on a single 8GB consumer grade system, which functions as a file
    server and Exchange server. We use Redirected Folders and Offline files for all users, which works great for us and provides additional file redundancy (if server goes down, all of each user's files are also on their own machine and they can even continue
    to work just fine w/o the server, losing only ability to send and receive e-mail). It has been sufficient, but I want to upgrade our version of Exchange and I am nervous that if that current one server fails, it would take me a long time to restore everything
    from backup, easily many days, especially if I need to buy any replacement hardware. It is RAID1, so a single drive failure is easy to handle, but that's the only hardware redundancy for the current server.
    New Plan:
    Install Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard on a new modest machine (16GBR RAM, Core i7, 1TB RAID1 (may upgrade to 3 or 4 TB), 256 GB SSD boot drive, this had been my old personal computer)
    Join that new server to the existing SBS domain (2008 R2/Exchange 2007), make it a DC, sync the users, etc.
    Install Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard on a wimpy computer (4GB RAM Core i3 processor), leave it as a member server
    Install Exchange Server 2013 on the wimpy new 2012 R2 Server (and nothing else, this will be dedicated to Exchange to make the most of such a wimpy machine)
    Migrate the existing Exchange data from the old SBS Exchange 2007 server and account info to the new server
    (or should I just create new accounts and copy the data from the user end through Outlook -- is that safer and cleaner than attempting any kind of server-level Exchange data migration?)
    Demote the old SBS Server and promote the new 16GB server to primary DC. Now it's OK to take the old SBS server off the network.
    Reformat the old SBS server and install Windows Server 2012 R2 on it too, and join it to the domain as a second DC (and possibly DCPROMO it to be the main server)
    Install Exchange Server 2013 in a VM on the reformatted 2012 R2 Server box (so second instance on the domain for Exchange redundancy) and set it up to sync with the first Exchange Server 2013 via DAG OR set up another physical wimpy member server and install
    it there. In any case, do NOT install Exchange directly on either DC.
    Set up DFS Replication or a Failover Cluster (still need to research this, but I had planned on DFS, thinking Cluster required shared drive, but Ed corrected me on this) between the two DC's for redirected files and keep all my user data folders between
    the two servers. We don't need automatic failover, like with a cluster, a manual switch would be acceptable, but if no additional cost or risk to clustering the two DC's, then the auto-failover protection that provides would be better than DFS.
    I think this incorporates all of your points, Ed. Does this sound right now? What's your advice on #5 (how to best migrate user data)?
    Thanks so much for all your help,
    Colin

  • VLAN and Exchange server

    Hi everyone,
    We need help on the configuration of our Exchange server and VLAN.
    Since I'm a beginner in VLAN configurations.
    We are using Cisco SG300 switch and Exchange server.
    We have 2 NICs on our server, with 1 having a static Public(internet) IP for internet which is directly connected to our ISP modem(complete with IP Address, Subnet Mask, Default Gateway and DNS), the other NIC has a static Local(intranet) IP for local network(with IP Address and Subnet Mask only).
    Our Problem is we cannot add an Default Gateway on the 2nd NIC(intranet) because it says conflict with the gateway specified on the other NIC.
    We want to add a Default Gateway on the 2nd NIC(intranet) to be become accessible from other VLANs.
    How can the server be accessible to other different VLANs on our network?
    What will be the best approach on this?
    Thanks in advance.
    J

    You should add routes to your windows routing table.
    So if your server is in VLAN 10.10.10.0/24 and has the IP of 10.10.10.2 and your router is 10.10.10.1 then you can add routes to all your VLANs by adding the networks and routing them through 10.10.10.1.
    For example, in your command prompt on Windows you would type:
    route -p ADD 10.10.11.0 MASK 255.255.255.0 10.10.10.1
    route -p ADD 10.10.12.0 MASK 255.255.255.0 10.10.10.1
    route -p ADD 10.10.13.0 MASK 255.255.255.0 10.10.10.1
    That would make your computer access all the internal VLANs as well as make it reachable from those VLANs.

  • SBS Server 2003 and Exchange Server - need to access but only have HDD

    Hi,
    I have been redirected here from a Microsoft Community Forum. I am reasonably conversant with windows systems but am not a computer professional, just trying to see if I can solve a problem without spending a great deal of cash at this stage as
    our office has been completely flooded out and we are still struggling to regroup....Here is the original question.
    A couple of years ago our sever died completely, we kept the HDD's, but unfortunately not the CD's with the software on or the software keys. So I have now 2HDD's, the original boot partition and one with data on. both clean and fully working and
    connected now to an old desktop. I can see everything fine, but I cannot boot from the original boot drive (I have tried simply disconnecting the desktop's boot drive and the windows logo shows for 1 second an d then chucks me back to the initial (DOS?) load.
    The point is that I need to boot into SBS2003 with the exchange server installed in order to access a handful of old emails which have become extremely important, and also to run an old version of Filemaker server which will not run on any newer O.S.
    I have tried, incidentally, a converter for the exchange files and I can see the directories but I think that unless I pay $xxx for something, which I cannot afford now, then I will not get the emails and all attachments back.
    So my question is this - is there anyway I can use the original boot disk in a new hardware environment to restore both sbs 200 and exchange to working condition? I have paid vast sums for both so I do feel that I should be able to use them still!
    Many thanks

  • Outlook for Mac and Exchange Server 2010

    I am a customer of Office 365 and I am using it on my Mac. Unfortunately Outlook for Mac (version 15.6 150113) is not able to connect to my Exchange account. Tried to reinstall it many times and also reinstalled from zero the Yosemite OS X, but no way. I
    try to make the automatic connection and it doesn't work, so I manually insert the server address but unfortunately it doesn't happen anything and the bullet on the left signs a yellow color indicating that it is not connected. I use the same information that
    I use in the native "Mail" application where it works perfectly. I tried also other applications like foxmail and airmail 2, and using the same server and id they all work perfectly. Also Lynch is working great. Can somebody help me to solve this
    "outlook for Mac and Exchange" problem?
    Thank you in advance

    Hi Sylvain, Thank you for the attention. Hereafter the result of the test and sorry if it is in italian since my account is italian. I forgot to say that my exchange account is my Company's exchange server while office 365 is my personal account.

    Hello,
    Just as Mike post above, the issue may occurs as the previous SSDT releases are not compatible with this new version of DACFX.
    You can refer to the following blog about this issue and download the latest release of SSDT from
    here.

  • JavaMail and Exchange Server

    Hi All,
    I am having trouble reading from an Exchange Server. I am running my application from a windows machine and I can connect to the exchange server but when I try to open the folder, I get an error saying:
    javax.mail.MessagingException: A3 NO There is no replica for that mailbox on this server.;
    nested exception is:
         com.sun.mail.iap.CommandFailedException: A3 NO There is no replica for that mailbox on this server.
         at com.sun.mail.imap.IMAPFolder.doCommand(IMAPFolder.java:2125)
         at com.sun.mail.imap.IMAPFolder.exists(IMAPFolder.java:406)
         at com.sun.mail.imap.IMAPFolder.checkExists(IMAPFolder.java:280)A3 NO There is no replica for that mailbox on this server.
         at com.sun.mail.imap.IMAPFolder.open(IMAPFolder.java:779)
         at htmlparse.HtmlParserTest.readInBox(HtmlParserTest.java:123)
         at htmlparse.HtmlParserTest.main(HtmlParserTest.java:407)
    Here is my code:
    // Get a Properties object
    Properties props = System.getProperties();
    // Get a Session object
    Session session = Session.getInstance(props, null);
    session.setDebug(debug);
    // Get a Store object
    Store store = session.getStore(protocol);
    if (host != null || user != null || password != null)
    store.connect(host, port, user, password);
    System.out.println("isConnected = [" + store.isConnected() + "]");
    IMAPFolder inBox = (IMAPFolder)store.getFolder("INBOX");
    inBox.open(Folder.READ_WRITE);
    //try {
    // folder.open(Folder.READ_WRITE);
    //} catch (MessagingException ex) {
    // folder.open(Folder.READ_ONLY);
    System.out.println("isOpen = [" inBox.isOpen() "]");
    //folder = folder.getFolder(mbox);
    System.out.println("###################### 1");
    if (inBox == null) {
    System.out.println("Invalid folder");
    System.exit(1);
    System.out.println("###################### 2");
    //System.out.println("folderExist = [" + folder.exists() + "]");
    System.out.println("######################### " + inBox.getFullName());
    // try to open read/write and if that fails try read-only
    //try {
    // folder.open(Folder.READ_WRITE);
    //} catch (MessagingException ex) {
    // folder.open(Folder.READ_ONLY);
    // try to open read/write and if that fails try read-only
    //folder.open(Folder.READ_WRITE);
    //System.out.println("************************** 1");
    int totalMessages = inBox.getNewMessageCount();
    if (totalMessages == 0) {
    System.out.println("Empty folder");
    inBox.close(false);
    store.close();
    System.exit(1);
    The protocal is "IMAP".
    Appreciate any help that you can provide.
    Thanks in advance.

    Late reply to this, but i just went through this excercise and was not able to "google" a good solution..
    We solved it by asking our exchange admin where the mailbox we were trying to access actually resides.
    This will be a different domain than your "refering" exchange server..
    We then modified our session store code to access that specific server.. this will be the value you use for mailHost
    store.connect(mailHost,storeUsername,storePassword);[more info on IMAP referrals|http://support.microsoft.com/kb/217388]
    hope this helps.

  • Time Capsule and Exchange server 2010.

    I want to Buy an time capsule 2tb and make this the hard of my network.
    I' am running my own Windows 2011 small business server and I'am using Exchange to sync my e-mail to our iphones, iPad and MacBook. The router I want to replace is an linksys wrt54g. I'am forwarding ports 80 (http) and 443 (https) to internet so we can sync our mail when we are on the road. But when we are at home we also need to connect localy to the Exchange server. In the wrt54g I have an selection box:      Filter Internet NAT Redirection .
    This means: This  feature uses Port Forwarding to prevent access to local servers from your local networked computers.
    I have unchecked this box so  I can connect the Exchange server from both wan and lan.
    Is this also posible with the time capsule (to connect to these ports via lan and wan)? This will be the only thing that is keeping me from buying one now.
    Ps. I only use the Exchange server for personal use so i don't need an full firewall.
    Thanks,
    Alexander

    You can certainly forward the ports.. any router can do that.
    I am not too sure what your second part means.. as long as you access the server on its local lan address you will have no issues.. but if you try and access it via the the full url address it will fail. The TC AFAIK has no NAT loopback. A quick google says no such luck.
    What is the function of the TC in the network because there might be alternative boxes that work better??

  • Security Update 2008-007 and Exchange Server Problem

    At work I access an exchange server using Entourage 2004 under Leopard 10.5.5. I just installed the 2008-007 Security Update and now I can no longer connect with the exchange server. Other network services are working, just can't access exchange. Oddly, I am also unable to access the my work mail using Outlook Web Access (OWA) in Safari, but it works in Firefox. Has anyone else run into these problems? Any advice? Thanks.

    Hi,
    I'm having exactly the same problem at work. We use a Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 here and I can't connect to my folder in the server since yesterday, either on my desktop iMac and on my MacBook. When I click on the server icon I have for a long time in the dock, after sometime waiting I get the message "Connection failed-Maybe the server doesn't exist......". I also tried through the "connect" icon in a Finder window and even changing the server adress to smb://nameoftheserver doesn't work.
    I don't have the OWA problem since it works with https:// and not with http://
    Hope somebody can help us.

  • CSMARS reporting ICMP traffic between hosts and Exchange Server

    We recently added a CSMARS box to our infrastructure so it could correlate and report on our 4260's alerts. I've noticed that CSMARS is reporting on ICMP's from multiple hosts within our network sending ICMP packets to our Exchange server. The total amounts of packets are between 15 and 30 and then the ICMP's from the specific clients stop.
    I know that Windows XP clients will send ICMP traffic to domain controllers in order to test connectivity and I'm wondering if we're seeing the same occurrence with our Exchange clients.
    Thanks,
    Javier

    Hi, the signature that is firing is ICMP Flood
    Signature ID: 2152/0. According to Cisco's site this signature should not fire under normal circumstances. However, when we first setup the IPS sensor it would deny all vpn users' access to our exchange server as the Win Nuke signature kept firing. Of course this was a false positive.
    However, once I tweaked the CSMARS rule a bit the noise calmed down and it reported on two hosts that were trying to send ICMP floods to Google.
