Hi all.
Accidentally there were removed 6 mailboxes. In ECP windows "Connect mailbox" i can see only 3 disconnected mailboxes and i don't see other 3 mailbox. These mailboxes weren't empty.
I can see these message:
http://ipic.su/img/img7/fs/kiss_22kb.1421755511.png
How can i check these mailboxes which are in inconsistent state?
Also i tried to make Update-StoreMailboxState for deleted mailboxes
Okay, I have a big and strange problem. I have a script that has the following line in it:
"add-pssnapin Microsoft.Exchange.Management.PowerShell.SnapIn"
When running the script from ISE everything works just as it should do, but as soon as I create a scheduled task to run it, it fails on
that specific SnapIn with the following error: The type initializer for 'Microsoft.Exchange.Management.PowerShell.CmdletConfigurationEntries' threw an exception.
So this only happens when I run it as a scheduled task, not otherwise. I've seen that there has been trouble with .Net 4.5 and Exchange
2010, but this is a Exchange 2013, where the problem should be fixed. (https://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/feedback/details/…)
Does anyone know what could be wrong?

Our exchange 2013 server is an all in one box running in a VM on Hyper-V. This is the only exchange server we have.
Everything was working fine, then yesterday we tried to add a virtual directory to the server under the default website. This was added as first as local folder and then we changed it to a network drive with it setup as an application. We also setup an application pool just for this folder.
About that time, we noticed that exchange clients were having an issue connecting. OWA stopped working, ECP stopped working, Outlook desktop clients stopped connecting.
We un-did all our changes, deleted the application pool we created, deleted the virtual directory, but still nothing is working.
From the Exchange server, we can get the login screen for OWA, but it just hangs on a blank screen after entering the username & password. We're not seeing any errors in the windows system logs.
We've also noticed the Back End Website is running under the default application pool. Not sure if this is correct or not.
Is there a powershell command which will just rebuild the IIS websites? Any help is appreciated.
Thanks
I get this at boot and when restarting the Microsoft Exchange Diagnostics service ever since I updated to CU7. Anyone know anything about this?

Hello,
I have a task to create mailboxes for existed AD users and also in the same time create a secondary email addresses.
I need a useful cmdlets or scripts to enable hundreds of users.
There is a nice command, that I'm using in Exchange management shell - "Enable-Mailbox -identity domain\user -Database db_name" but, I need more convenient command to create much more mailboxes at the same time.
Thanks in advance,
In real world scenarios do may of you enable circular logging? I have never had to replay log files and usually enable circular logging.
Also in a DAG do the transaction logs get created on each member if circular logging is disabled?
finally what is best practice for backing up databases in a dag if i have 2 active with split mounted copies of each database so db 1,2,3 are on server one with passive 4,5 and 123, are passive on server 2 with 4,5 active then I have server 3 with 1,2,3,4,5 all passive where do I back up from?

We recently discovered an issue where, if you use Exchange Management Shell to configure custom access rights, the Free/Busy permissions do not get set at all (they remain as "None"):
$temp = [Microsoft.Exchange.Management.StoreTasks.MailboxFolderAccessRight[]]("ReadItems","EditOwnedItems","DeleteOwnedItems","EditAllItems","DeleteAllItems","FolderVisible")
Add-MailboxFolderPermission -Identity "conf-company-test:\calendar" -User "Company Calendar Management" -AccessRights $temp
Add-MailboxFolderPermission -Identity "conf-company-test:\calendar" -User "mpinkston" -AccessRights EditorIf you use a pre-defined "role" such as Editor given to mpinkston6 in the above example it sets the Free/Busy permission to Full Details. It would appear that using Add-MailboxFolderPermission or Set-MailboxFolderPermission is generic for folder
objects, and doesn't explicitly set the Free/Busy permissions. In the case of the pre-defined roles either the command is doing something special/different, or the permission checks later accept pre-defined roles for determining Free/Busy permissions. No idea
which is going on. If Free/Busy permissions can be fixed through PowerShell by some other mechanism/command, that would be great. If not, how do we go about requesting a fix/feature change in Exchange?

I had number of databases decommissioned during our migration from 2010 to 2013
Now we have only 2 servers and 2 databases in DAG.
Correct me if I am wrong but I expect to have 2 health monitoring mailboxes per database.
Currently I have 8 MBs with all different GUIDs, 5 in one DB and 3 in the other, WhenChanged data is very old one.
Is there any way to delete and then re-create mailboxes for health monitoring to be sure I have only necessary ones and that they are working?
I mean not objects in AD but mailboxes themselves, I know I can delete user objects with ADUC and then restart MS Exchange Health Manager to recreate them.
When I try to access monitoring mailboxes it cannot find it via remove-mailbox command.
Guys,
I facing problem if migrating 100 users mailbox to another database, But if i migrate 50 users mailbox it happens smoothly. Please help to know how to customize throttling of exchange server if i want to migrate 100 users and each of them has mailbox size in gb. So that it shud not degrade the performance.
hi
I came across a strange issue wherein OoO messages are being fired from one particular mailbox even after turning off OoO Office Assistant , i checked there are no rules indeed. Please suggest.

Good day folks,
Having a simple yet annoying issue concerning a client trying to migrate mailboxes using the exchange management console [2010].
Their account has numerous OUs and Security groups attached, amongst which of course Exchange Servers, Exchange Recipient Administrator
My account has less, but the core ones mentioned on top.
They can't move a particular user from one database to another, I can.
The error states "Can not open log file C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\Logging\MigrationLogs\move-Mailbox-xxx.log"
Access to the above is denied.
This looks like a permissions issue, and judging from the fact that my account works, compounds this fact.
Is it that their account is so entwined with some security group or OU that the constraints are overriding the priveleges?
Hi people,
I´ve just installed my new Exchange 2013 SP1 environment in a new domain.
I´ve installed two Mailbox server and two Client Access servers, I´ve started the installation with two mailbox serves and to continue I´ve installed the Client Access servers. When I finished the installation in each server I restarted it.
Now, my problema is the Access to Exchange Administration Center.
I´m trying with https://servercas1.domain.local/ecp orhttps://servercas2.domain.local/ecp
In both cases, Internet explorer sais "this page can´t be displayed"
I´ve checked the Ecpvirtualdirectory in PowerShell, and internal url is correct: https://servercas1.domain.local/ecp in the first CAS andhttps://servercas2.domain.local/ecp in the second CAS.
I´ve tried Access by IP, but with the same result...
Finally, I´ve tried the Access with https://localhost/ecp and it Works!
But... I want to Access by name, no by localhost....
Someone knows why I can´t Access by name??
I understand the Access to EAC is only possible through the CAS, because in the Mailbox doesnt work it, right?
Thanks and Best regards.
I have a small Exchange 2013 (SP1) site with just one CAS.
By accessing of the CAS, OWA runs properly for each user and also the options-page is well available – not so by accessing it as "admin" because of the "error 500". The same occurs by accessing ECP directly viahttps://cas/ecp: after passing of credentials the normal options-page occurs for each user – not so for the admin.
Hello Folks,
Sadly i cannot find a definitive answer to a rather simple question concerning the simultaneous usage of time-based in-place hold and in-place archive functions in Exchange 2013 (CU6):
I'd like to use in-place hold to ensure all data is kept for 7 years but still use in-place archiving for all data over 1.5 years old.
Is this possible without all data between 1.5 and 7 years old being held both in the recoverable items folder of the primary mailbox (because they have been "deleted" there due to moving them to the archive) as well as in the archive mailbox?
Thanks for your help in advance,
Juergen
I have two CAS servers running in my environment. The other day I noticed the ECP (on CAS #1) was giving inaccurate information. For instance, it was claiming user1 was on database 1 when I knew he was on database two. I can remote into the CAS server, and in EMS, get the correct information. CAS #2 is all correct (ECP and EMS). What would cause the ECP on SAC #1 to be incorrect, yet the ECP on #2 is perfect? I rebooted the server last night and it has not changed.
Thanks for any help on this puzzle.
Hi guys,
I'm becoming pretty desperate on this one.
I have an Exchange setup in two sites with one Namespace - mail.company.com:
Site A - 192.168.50.0/24
- Server A = Server 2012 with AD Services (PDC)
- Server B = Server 2012 with Exchange 2013 CU3
Site B - 192.168.60.0/24
- Server A = Server 2012 with AD Services
- Server B = Server 2012 with Exchange 2013 CU3
The Sites are connected via IPsec VPN and AD sync works like a charm.
But when I run a cmdlet like "Get-OwaVirtualDirectory" on any of the two servers, it displays the information of the local site and then spins and spins and spins for about 30 minutes. Then it finishes and displays the remote site information.
This is the case in almost EVERY cmdlet that is fetching or setting information from or to a remote site. For example: I can set a certificate for a service on both servers in both directions in a blink of an eye ... changing a virtual directory url
on the other hand takes 30-40 minutes.
Does anyone have a clue what this could cause?
Greetings,
Vasko
Edit: I've set the LogLevel to Expert and both exchange servers are getting the following Warning:hi,
I have a couple of general questions:
1) How do I check the default retention time for removed mailboxes in exchange power shell ? The reason I'm asking is I've marked for deletion a few user mailboxes. But it happened I had to re-enable accounts in AD as 2 of the employees returned to the company. The mailboxes seem to have connected automatically back since I re-enabled accounts in Active Directory. Not sure whether they are still in status 'marked for deletion' ?
2) How do I force to cancel the deletion if it happens to be the case ?
thank you.
I get lots of errors 106 MSExchange Common. Details:
Performance counter updating error.
After that there is a list of running processes displayed. And after that for each process:
A process is holding onto a transport performance counter. processId : 16852,
etc.

I'm trying to think of a way to get only public folders with a calendar (even calendars in sub folders). The closest I've come so far to getting that list was by using the following command:
Get-PublicFolder -Identity \ -GetChildren | Where {$_.HasSubFolders -eq "True" -and $_.ParentPath -like "\*"} | select Identity
I know that I'm missing something. Can anyone help out?
