TOP SUPPORT ISSUES

 

[ISSUE 1]

================

W3wp.exe process consumes a lot of CPU resources (over 50%) when users synchronize the mailboxes via ActiveSync.

 

Environment:

==================

Exchange 2003 with SP2

iPhone

 

Assessment:

==================

Based on Process Explorer, we found the imon.dll thread within the w3wp.exe process consumes a lot of CPU resources and the value of Cswitch Delta is very high.

 

Resolution

==========

1. Installed the hotfix 941439 and set the valud of MaxAllocationIncrement to 4096.

2. Disabled IMON scanner which a sub-component of NOD32 anti-virus program.

 

[ISSUE 2]

 

Problem Description:

=============

When using ActiveSync, users are not prompted for changing password if it is expired or invalid. In addition, status code 0x85010014 is returned if the user's password is set to must be changed on next logon.

 

Cause:

=======

When configuring POP3 account, the user specifies a non-existent e-mail address.

 

Resolution:

===============

Under investigation, we noticed that ISA 2006 server is being used in the environment, hence we need to apply the hotfix KB958952.

[ISSUE 3]

Problem Description:

================

From ExBPA report, the Exchange server cannot access port 389 of a domain controller named studc1.

 

There are one parent domain and three child domains in this organization. The issue only occurs within one child domain.

 

Cause:

================

Based on the network trace, we found that that IP address of the domain controller does not map to the correct FQDN of the domain controller.

 

After further investigation, we found that there is an incorrect A record for this domain controller in the DNS server of the root domain.

 

Resolution:

================

Remove the incorrect DNS A record and add a correct one.
