Hi,

I am struggling trying to bulk update 200+ users into 100+ distribution group list for a particular domain. I need help with a PS script to help me with this.

The distribution list is already created 100+ list in Exchange 2013, no user added into it yet.

Now I have 2 CSV.

CSV distributionlistusers {Displayname, Emailaddress}

CSV distributionlistgroups {Displayname}

Thanks in advance.

Hi I have run Set-Mailbox ian.shapton -AuditOwner Update, Move, MoveToDeletedItems, SoftDelete, HardDelete

I then created and deleted an email and ran Search-MailboxAuditLog -Identity "ian shapton" -LogonTypes Owner -StartDate "12/21/2014 12:00" -EndDate "12/21/2014 13:00" -ShowDetails

I see An error occurred while trying to access the audit log. For more details, see the inner exception.

I am a Recipient Admin and Org Admin and can search other mailboxes using -LogonTypes Delegate

Any idea what I am missing here?

Hi Guys,

we have deployed Exchange 2013 however the exchange was using self signed certificate .

after 4 days we applied valid certificate from a 3rd party, certificate has been applied on the exchange and activated.

on each outlook user they keep getting the pop up ex.domain.lan certificate is invalid.

somehow the outlook users can't see the new webmail.domain.com certificate .

how can I deploy the correct certificate on the outlook users from the server side ?

can you help to troubleshoot this ?

thank you

Hello!

Starting today accessing OWA/ECP page results in this error:

The following event gets registered in the Application log:

No network/certificate errors, EPS works perfect. IIS authentication settings on the affected server (Exch1) are exactly the same as on the other server (Exch2) that works normally.

???

Thank yo in advance,

Michael

Hello!

I had to recover one of my Exchange 2013SP1 servers with Setup /m:RecoverServer - the reinstallation completed successfully:

After that I can easily access OWA/ECP pages but Exchange PowerShell does not work:

Since the first thing that should be checked in such cases is the Kerberos authentication (https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff607221%28v=EXCHG.80%29.aspx) I opened up thePowerShell\Modules and looked at Kerbauth:

MS's article mentioned above says

"4.Confirm that Kerbauth is a native module.

5.Confirm that the path of the Kerbauth.dll file is C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\v14\Bin\kerbauth.dll."     

- it says nothing about what if one can NOT "confirm 4. and 5." so the only thing I could do is to delete and recreate the EPS virtual directory. The result is exactly the same.

Q: What should I do to set a) Kerbauth to a native mode and b) Kerbauth.dll file toC:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\v15\Bin\kerbauth.dll  *

* - v15 because it is Exchange 2013

Thank you in advance,

Michael

Hello!

EMC shows the status of my both Exchange servers' content index state as failed:

This article  http://exchangeserverpro.com/fix-all-failed-exchange-database-content-indexes/ offers the following method of fixing it:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Get-MailboxDatabaseCopyStatus * | where {$_.ContentIndexState -eq "Failed"}

Name                               Status     CopyQueue ReplayQueue LastInspectedLogTime   ContentIndex
                                   Length     Length                                       State
----                               ------     --------- ----------- --------------------   ------------
Mailbox Database 1\HO-EX2010-MB1   Healthy    0         0           22/02/2013 10:43:26 AM Failed
Mailbox Database 2\HO-EX2010-MB1   Healthy    0         0           22/02/2013 10:41:36 AM Failed

So all we need to do is pipe the output of that command into the Update-MailboxDatabaseCopy cmdlet with the-CatalogOnly switch.

[PS] C:\>Get-MailboxDatabaseCopyStatus * | where {$_.ContentIndexState -eq "Failed"} | Update-MailboxDatabaseCopy -CatalogOnly

Wait for that process to complete, then re-run the first command again. If no results are returned this time then there are no more failed content indexes.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

...but I have no results even when the first command is executed:

So EMS says the content index state = Failed whilst EPS doesn't show any records - what does it mean???

P.S. There're no issues with either Exch3 or Exch2, DB switchover works perfect.

Thank you in advance,

Michael

Hello,

  I've recently did the .local to .com transition for my Exchange 2010 server and put in a new certificate. All my local network computers have been connecting just fine until last weeks install of SP3 Rollup11. Now some(not all) Outlook clients are throwing up a certificate name mismatch error. They are using the default servername of the self signed certificate  *.contoso.local and not the newer certificate of mail.contoso.com. Anyone know why?

  The original self signed certificate is still installed, should I kill it? All of our Outlook clients show the servername of that old original name and even deleting the profile and recreating it still uses that instead of the new mail.contoso.com one. I've had nothing but odd issues since SP3 Rollup11 and I'm so frustrated, examples: OWA users are now exceeding thresholds\OWA sessions are dropping, ugh please help if you can as I'm about to use a sledge hammer on this server :)

Thanks,

Larry

I am working on an automation solution for our user creation. I am creating a WCF service to create users using PS scripting from within my vb.net service application. I can create users/mailboxes just fine and even update the O365 mailbox (once the sync has happened), but I can't seem to make the sync run by submitting a PS command from within my code (samples to follow).

I use my credentials and I know that works, because I can run the command from PS using a remote connection from my DEV box to the server and it works fine.  Please have a look at the code below.

Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Sincerely,
Glen

In Exchange 2013 (on premises), is there a Performance Monitor counter, or similar method, to count how many times clients actually "recover" an email from the Recover Deleted Items area ?

For example, if an Outlook user recovers ("moves back") one email from that area to the Deleted Items folder,...that would be "1".

We are trying to determine how many days to keep in Recover Deleted area.    

Of course "how often it is used" is not the only item to consider.    (That one time it is used when the item recovered was very important might pay for many days held in there.)

Thanks

I'm trying to disable the monitor for a database in a DAG that we don't want to have copies for.

I tried the following, but a few hours later the monitoring alert appears again;

Set-MailboxDatabase –Identity "name” –AutoDagExcludeFromMonitoring $True
Add-GlobalMonitoringOverride -Identity DataProtection\EnableDatabaseMonitoringResponder -ItemType Responder -PropertyName “Enabled” -PropertyValue “0” -Duration 60.00:00:00

Does anybody know how to disable the database redundancy check for a specific database?

Hello Fellow IT Folks,

I have run into an issue and hoping to receive some help from you guys. 

I had a user mailbox (User A) automapped to another users (User B) with full access. I was asked to remove User A because their employment was terminated. So I removed the exchange object from EMC. I assumed that the removal will also remove all of the automapping from the users who had access to the mailbox, BUT it didn't.

Extra information: User A also has a contact item that needs to remain active. This contact item has the same alias as the mailbox. The contact item also has the company email address for User A but it is not primary.

I have already tried to run 

Remove-MailboxPermission -Identity <User A Email adress> -User <User B Email Address> -AccessRights FullAccess

But it doesn't find User A's email address because it has already been deleted. Please advise.

Environment: Exchange 2010

Hi,

Hoping for some help with an Exchange Server problem I am having.

Everything else on the Server seems fine.

Build Number: 15.0.995.29 (CU6)

However when I use the ECP to try to do a Compliance Management / in-place eDiscovery & hold

This appears in the right hand column;

TIA!

get-mailboxstatistics -database "My Database" | ft displayname,itemcount,mailboxguid,disconnectreason shows a mailbox that was deleted some time ago using EAC.  The disconnectreason is blank.  If I try to delete the mailbox using remove-mailbox -identity xxx-xxxx-xxxxx-permanent $true, an error displays saying the mailbox doesn't exist.  How can it not exist if get-mailboxstatistics lists it?

Ideas?

Hi,

I have two cas servers in our production environment. Is there anyway to get the active user numbers of both cas servers?

PS: don't tell me to use

Get-Counter "\MSExchange ActiveSync\Current Requests" -ComputerName cas1, cas2, cas3

It seems doesn't work on the exchange 2013.

We've had our Exchange 2013 server running for years and since Nov. 1st when the SSL policies changed and the fact that we had our local server name in use since Exchange 2007 (migrated to 2010 and then to 2013), we had to get a new certificate from GoDaddy and install it. I also messed around with IIS settings at the same time to enable HTTP redirection!

Ever since, OWA has not worked. Everything else works fine including Outlook, Mobile phones and ECP but OWA does not. I'm not sure if it's a certificate problem or the changes I made.

Login page loads, but after login, either nothing happens, or page refreshes with login screen again and after second login, it just hangs. If I try the same on the server itself, either same behavior happens or I get ahttps://mail.mydomain.com/owa/?bO=1#authRedirect=true

Even viewer shows multiple errors:
106 Performance counter updating error. Counter name is Current Requests Pending: I tried this but did not fix the errorhttps://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2870416

36888 Schannel

1500 HTTPEvent Unable to create log file C:\inetpub\logs\LogFiles\W3SVC1\u_ex151123.log. Make sure that the logging directory is correct and this computer has write access to that directory.

I've checked the certificates, the SSL settings on each folder in IIS, tried URL Rewrite and so on with no luck. I cannot figure out what the problem is. Everything was working fine before the changes and now ECP still works but OWA does not.
I appreciate any help.

first of all, I am not sure if I am posting in the right forum, my apologies if I am not. Please direct me to the correct one.

We are currently testing Exchange Online Archive with one mailbox. This seems to go well for the user so far, but on the server side we are getting the following errors:

The "todo" mentioned by the SCOM logging "Get last ELC exception from Export-MailboxDiagnosticLogs -Component MRM then statistics with -ExtendedProperties and look at all ELC properties, specifically the value of ELCLastSuccessTimestamp." makes no sense to me at all. the first part I get and I am able to run, but the second part about "-extendedProperties" doesn't ring a bell.

I am pretty clueless were to go from here....

Hi

On all of my Mailbox Database servers, i'm getting the following warning in my Application log: 

Level: Warning
Source: MSExchange Mid-Tier Storage
EventID:  2009
Message:
[Process:w3wp PID:6032 Thread:89] Error occurred while resolving the Active Directory object for from email address field: 'user@externaldomain.com'. Audit log will not be generated for this case. Exception details:

I have three Exchange Server 2013 MBX/CAS servers, and two Exchange Server 2013 Edge Transport servers in front of them.

As mentioned earlier, this warning is on all three of the MBX/CAS servers. The external e-mail address vary.

I've used the Get-MessageTrackingLog to debug, and I can see that this error comes when an internal user sends a "Meeting Forward Notification" to an external e-mail address. Exchange tries to resolve the external e-mail address in Active Directory and throws this warning, for some reason.

Is there anyone that knows how to fix this?
