Dynamic Distribution List not filtering out specific fields

$
0
0

I have a distribution list I'm trying to recreate. The original one is simple and has everybody with a company name in it. I've been asked to modify or create a new list that also filters out anyone with the word "contractor" in their email addresses.

The original DDL was made using the EMC search starts at the root of AD and theFilter selects Users with Exchange mailboxes andContacts with external e-mail addresses. The Conditions areRecipient is in a Company with CompanyName

The command I tried to recreate this with the addition of a command that removes the email addresses with the "word contractors" is the following.

New-DynamicDistributionGroup -Name "Company Test" -RecipientFilter {(EmailAddresses -notlike "*contractor*") -and (Company -eq "CompanyName") -and (RecipientType -eq "UserMailbox") -or (RecipientType -eq "MailContact")}

The issue is that the member list is still a lot bigger than the original. It appears to remove users with the word "contractors" in their name but there are additional entries in there that are not in the list I'm trying to duplicate. Is there something the EMC adds as I've recreated the original DDL in the EMC and it's the same as the original but when using Powershell it's not.

Any help would be greatly appreciated,

Exchange 2010 database won't mount

We had a power outage and I believe that the database has been corrupted. When I try to mount a restored copy of the database the day before the crash it gives me the following error.

Microsoft Exchange Error

Exchange 2010 not displaying correct version after SP3

Hi,

I updated 2 Exchange mailbox servers, MBX1 and MBX2.  After I rebooted the servers I noticed that one of the mailbox servers is showing the incorrect Version.  The expected version should be "Version 14.3 (Build 123.4)" instead it displays"Version 14.2 (Build 247.5).  Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

CatalogData folder mismatch

Exchange 2010 sp3, 2 hubs, 2mbs in DAG

it is my understanding that if there are two servers in DAG, they both have copies of the same folders and files. but with my two MB servers, MB01 have bigger disk space consumption of about 10GB compared to MB02. when I check each folders on both servers, I found that the "CatalogData" folder in MB01 is 9.91GB in size whereas the same folder in MB02 only have 862MB size!

why the discrepancy?

can I reset (like delete) the contents of CatalogData folder so they both start from 0MB?

Stumped on Email being redirected to folder without rule being setup

$

All of a sudden, email from one specific user is being redirected to a folder called junk (NOT "the" Junk Email that we all have but, a different folder simply called "junk"). There are no rules setup. If you move the emails back to the inbox..they go right back to the junk email folder. If you create a folder and move the emails to it, then delete the "junk" folder...a new folder..same name is created and the emails go right back into it. New emails from only this one specific user go to to the junk folder. Mailbox repair reported no corrupt objects. A complete rebuild  of the mailbox was done and the old data imported back into it. Still the same problem though. The user with the problem has email setup on a Samsung Galaxy 3 Note but, I did not see anything on it that would have allowed this re-direction. The problem does not seem to be specific to his Outlook profile on his PC as I get the same results on my PC with his account. He has Outllok 2007 and I have Outlook 2010..so, versions did not seem to matter either. Anyone have any ideas on this..everyone I've talked to so far is baffled.

Exchange 2010 huge databases

$

Hi,

we are running Exchange 2010. All is fine. However, a former colleague of mine did the Exchange setup.

We have 2 databases , each around 700 GB.

The databases are marked healthy and the environment is still fast. (its on a NetApp SAN).

I was wondering, is there a way to shrink the databases? I know I could do a defrag (if my users accept an outage of a couple of weeks). Also I have read that a new database would be good. But how do I know if this will save storage/ add perfomance?

I do not have a lot of whitespace available. I need some advice..



PS - Exporting large mailbox to multiple pst files

$

0
Our client is running Exchange 2010 with Journaling enabled. For legal purposes the firm is required to keep a copy of all email for five years. The journal mailbox has been in place for 2 years now and is currently around 200GB in size. We wish to export this mailbox to a pst for safe keeping and this will also free up disk space/resources. Using power shell is it possible to export the mentioned mailbox into multiple manageable sized pst files (say 10gb each). In other words can PS export a large mailbox while at the same time split/chop it up into separate pst files. Is there a switch/syntax we can add to the 'Get-MailBoxExportRequest' command in order to achieve this?

Exchange 2010 Discivery Search Returns more than I asked for.

$

Hey Everyone,

Having a weird problem and one that could have present me with legal problems. I was tasked to do a discovery search of a mailbox asking for emails from or to an external email address. When I ran the search it gave me more email than I should have because when I looked at this discovery thru the outlook client there where emails that where not to this external address as well as emails that were sent to the external address. Is this that anyone else has been experiencing? What did I do wrong, its just a straight forward search, fill in the from, and to, and the date range, mailbox to search, give it a title and select the discovery mailbox....simple....

The recipient is configured to use arbitration mailbox, but that mailbox has been deleted.

$

Hello,

in exchange server event log I can see event ID 23002.

It says:

The recipient distributiongroup@domain.com is configured to use arbitration mailbox SystemMailbox{1f05a927-b0b9-4f1c-9623-dcb1557e710e}
DEL:36caea35-b9b1-4d8e-85c1-faaf8fdd0b4f, but that arbitration mailbox has been deleted.

I recall doing some arbitration mailboxes deletion/recreation while resolving discovery search problems half a year ago or so.

Now I have these arbitration mailboxes:

Alias
-----
SystemMailbox{1f05a927-808b-4bb2-a993-4951f578c263}
FederatedEmail.4c1f4d8b-8179-4148-93bf-00a95fa1e042
SystemMailbox{e0dc1c29-89c3-4034-b678-e6c29d823ed9}

I assume I have to tell exchange to use other arbitration mailbox for distribution groups? How can I do that?


Unable to create shared mailboxes from a csv file

Hi,

I have a list of 130 shared mailboxes that I must create. So I created a CSV file like this:

Name,Alias,OrganizationalUnit,Database,UserPrincipalName

John Smith,jsmith,domain.com/accounts/shared,mailbox database A,jsmith@contoso.com

Mark Flone,mflone,domain.com/accounts/shared,mailbox database A,mflone@contoso.com

ETC.....

The list is ready and it is saved.

 import-csv C:\path | New-mailbox -Shared

the Error is the following:

"Cannot bind parameter 'Name' to the target. Exception setting "Name": "The property can't be empty."

I went into my spreadsheet and Trimmed everything, then saved and still the same error result.

Then I tried the following:

import-csv C:\temp\sharedMailboxCreationTest.csv | ForEach-Object {New-Mailbox -shared  -Name $_.Name  -Alias $_.Alias  -OrganizationalUnit $_.OrganizationalUnit -UserPrincipalName $_.UPN -Database $_.Database}

The Error:

"Cannot bind argument to parameter 'UserPrincipalName' because it is an empty string."

What am I missing here?

I got a call from a staffing firm concerning a project as a "Desktop “Depot” Support Technician". I'll be doing a roll out from lotus notes to exchange server. The recruiter asked if i had experience with exchange and i told him i do but very little. Fact is, i used it once but it was long ago and i don't remember what i did nor how i did it. Did i shoot myself in the foot? The job starts on 3/22 so i got a little bit of time to cram as much info as i can into my brain. Any tips?

I've been working on a swing migration from Exchange 2003 to 2010 SP3 on Srv 2012. Mailboxes and public folders are replicating but OWA throws an application error on the 2010 box (one server (each version), no front end or back end servers).

Runtime Error: An exception occurred while processing your request. Additionally, another exception occurred while executing the custom error page for the first exception.

What should I be looking for to track this error down?

Thanks

Quorum Group Failed

$

Hi we have an Exchange 2010 SP3 system with 4 mailbox servers in a DAG group. Last night we started to get Quorum Group errors on all the Exchange servers. We do have an FSW. I rebooted that FSW server because for some reason we lost WAN connectivity to that sever during the night. The server is definitely up now but the Exchange servers are still reporting the Quorum group error. Looking at the Failover Cluster Manager the Cluster networks are up and the Nodes are green. 

I am trying to learn this pretty quickly but I don't want to click some and bring down production because I am unfamiliar with it.

If I look at the Cluster Core Resources it lists the DAG name as being offline. Can I right click on the DAG in Failover Cluster Manager and try to bring it back online or is there a risk to this?

Any comments are appreciated.

Retention Policy for All Users and New Users

$
0
0

Hi, Have a client with Exchange 2010 SP1.  They want to setup a Policy that will Delete items from all users Deleted Items folder after 45 Days. 

So Im going to setup a Retention Policy Tag and then Create a Retention Policy.  In testing, it all worked out but I only assigned it to one user.  I used the Exchange EMC Console to do this.  But it looks like if you want to asign the policy to All Users then I will have to use the Command Shell. 

Is there a way to do it with the EMC Console or do you have to use the Command Shell?

If I have to use the Shell, I saw this command in the forum, Is this the correct command for SP1?

Get-Mailbox | Set-Mailbox –ManagedFolderMailboxPolicy 'MailboxPolicyName' 

Get-User | Where-Object {$_.RecipientType -eq "UserMailbox"}| Set-Mailbox -ManagedFolderMailboxPolicy "MailboxPolicyName"

If that is correct, the next problem is what about new users?  From some posts ive read if you create a new user then you have to asign the policy to the new user.  One person suggested having a command run in Windows Task Scheduler once a week.

Is this Command correct for this with Exchange 2010 SP1?

Get-Mailbox -filter {RetentionPolicy -eq $null} | Set-Mailbox -RetentionPolicyretentionpolicyname -force

If so, how do you create a script?  Im new to Power Shell so how do you setup that command in a script.  Im assuming open a text editor and paste that command in there.  Do you save the script as a PS1 extension? 

Also how do you tell the script to use Exchange management shell to run the command? 

Im sure the last questions are somewhere in the forum, but havent had time to look yet.

Sorry for asking so many questions, but I get confused with Commands, such as why do I use Get-mailbox one time and Get-User another time, then one time you use Where-Object and the other you use -filter. 

Thanks

Mike

Powershell script to delete emails from mailbox older than 90 days

Hello,

I need to delete all messages that are older than 90 days from a mailbox which includes inbox and all subfolders.  So this is what I have.  I don't have a test environment, so will need to run this in Prod and schedule it to run daily.   Even though it looks straighforward, it is doing a delete, so am a litte paranoid :).  Can you guys please verify if it looks ok?

$daysback = (Get-Date).adddays(-90)

Search-Mailbox abc@abc.com –SearchQuery “Received:< $($daysback)” –DeleteContent

Thanks

correct regular expression format for hub transport rule??

I want to create a regex such that it tests for two words with a space between them.

Exchange says /abc(\s)def/ig -- abc def or ABC DEF will pass the test -- Exchange says /mls(\s)secure/ig regex won't work.

How do I write the regex so it works in Exchange 2010??

Thank you, Tom
