What should the offset be changed to and how to you determine the best setting?

Thanks!

Rui Silva said:

First of all, you should check with your hardware vendor to see if you will experience any benefits from using Diskpar. If they don't provide any information about the subject you can do your own testing by copying large files or using Jetstress.
I think a good setting to start with will be 64, since 64 x 512 = 32KB, which is divisible by 4KB.

C:\>DISKPAR.EXE -s 1
Set partition can only be done on a raw drive.
You can use Disk Manager to delete all existing partitions
Are you sure drive 1 is a raw device without any partition? (Y/N) y

---- Drive 1 Geometry Infomation ----
Cylinders = 261
TracksPerCylinder = 255
SectorsPerTrack = 63
BytesPerSector = 512
DiskSize = 2146798080 (Bytes) = 2047 (MB)

We are going to set the new disk partition.
All data on this drive will be lost. continue (Y/N)? y

Please specify starting offset (in sectors): 64
Please specify partition length (in MB) (Max = 2047): 2047

Done setting partition.
---- New Partition information ----
StatringOffset = 32768
PartitionLength = 2146435072
HiddenSectors = 64
PartitionNumber = 1
PartitionType = 7

You now should use Disk Manager to format this partition

I am not a scripting guru. But, when I ran the script I got an "ERROR: Wrong file format". So, I took the "On Error Resume Next" out and it gave me an "Invalid procedure call or argument" 'Left'" on Line 116 Char 13.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Chris
# May 12, 2005 12:21 AM

Rui Silva said:

Hi Chris.
Can you check if you have the file DL_E55_NT4DOMAIN_OUT.txt and if it has content?
If this file has no content, then the first step of the script did not finish successfully.
# May 13, 2005 11:00 AM

Rui Silva said:

Yes, there is stuff in all of the files. The formats look correct to. I might try to manually import the file and see if I get an error there. If you have an insight I would appreciate it but, if not I will get it done on my own even if I have to recreate the DLs. Thank you for providing such a script though.

I think it might be because there is a special character in one of the members.

Ah I see now. It is putting a couple of the members on a second line.
# May 20, 2005 4:22 PM

Rui Silva said:

Chris, can you send me the DL_E55_NT4DOMAIN_OUT.txt file (or part of it)?
# May 20, 2005 5:35 PM

Rui Silva said:

I found that if you have a 0 member or 1 member DL, then you will get WRONG FILE FORMAT.
# June 3, 2005 8:47 PM

Rui Silva said:

Mark, I tested the script with empty DLs, so I don't think the problem has to do with the number of members. Can you confirm that you have a valid DL_E55_NT4DOMAIN_OUT.txt file?
# June 6, 2005 2:53 PM

Rui Silva said:

Im getting the same error when i run the script. WRONG FILE FORMAT. A window comes up, status bar goes to 19% and then i get the error. All the files have data in them. Any idea on how to fix this error?

Rui Silva said:

Rui J.M. Silva is correct, you should certainly check with your storage manufacturer. For example if you are using the EMC CLARiiON Array there are two ways to set the offset. **Note: If a host based utility is available it should be done from the host and not the array. 1. ON THE ARRAY: During the creation of a LUN set the LUN Offset to 63 blocks (because 63 x 512 bytes is 31.5 KB) **Note: this is not advisable if you are using layered applications including MirrorView, SnapView, or SANCopy. 2. FROM THE HOST: Instead of modifying the LUN Offset on the array you should use diskpar (or diskpart with W2K3) and set the value to the stripe element size used to bind your LUN (typically 128 blocks). If you own a CLARiiON Array and are looking for a Microsoft Exchange Storage Healthcheck please let me know seasonaladjustment@yahoo.com

This looks to be a truly useful tool - its just what i need but can't get the CSVDE step2 to work, against an Ex55 Sp4 machine running on NT4Sp6a - the command completes succesfully, but i get "No Entries Found"

The Admin-Display-Name, rdn and cn entries dont seem to be recognised in an Exchange 5.5 directory export either. If I try and do an export to these headers, i get nothing out either? Any ideas gratefully recieved..!

# October 16, 2005 4:31 AM

Rui Silva said:

Hi,

When running this CSVDE command against NT4/Ex55 SP6a, you must change the properties of the LDAP protocol in Exchange 5.5 to "Allow all substring searches (slow)".

Additionally, within i would extend the provided CSVDE command used here with -d "RootDN" and -p SearchScope.

change => groupType: 214748640
somehow the groupType of 8 doesn't work (win/exch 2003)

add => mailNickname:
this makes the new group mail enabled

remove => otherMailbox
this will be added by the Exchange RUS ; exchange 5.5 often uses some extra (garbage) address templates like fax or something. the tool fails when those templates don't exist in the target environment
# November 2, 2005 3:47 PM

Rui Silva said:

Hi,

Great script (if it works), just what I needed!
I did run into a few problems mentioned earlier, but those could be solved quite easy thanks to the comments above (the CSVDE dit not work from a remote server and some lines in the LDIFDE output file where not alligned -> seems to happen a lot with ldifde).

Still I would like to share the following findings:
- The W2K3 version of LDIFDE seems to give a different output compared to the W2K one and causes the script to fail
- The group members need to be in the same target OU as the distribution groups

Does anyone know if there's an updated version of this script, or a simular tool somewhere?

tnx
# November 2, 2005 6:02 PM

Rui Silva said:

To Exchange Guy:
- I've tested the tool with W2K3 with success, never had a problem
- The lates version is 0.3.20, which is the one I provided the link to download from
- Regarding the target OU, this process it's supposed to occur after a migration with ADC sync involved, so I designed it to use the ADC OU. You can move the objects after running the script

The issue here is that the problem affects the users but the fix lies with the Exchange support team, and that means there could be a considerable delay before the patch gets dropped. Therefore this 'little problem' stops OWA working. For the user there's no work around. As Robert says "Why didn't this get picked up in testing?"

# November 14, 2006 1:22 PM

Eric Wallace said:

I'm not so sure the patch was ready for production... We've had problems with it for multiple clients that we're using S/MIME and had IE6. They get a blank message body in OWA after the patch is installed, and none of the usual fixes work to resolve it--but uninstalling the patch restores it!

Anyone else have this problem?

There is a powerful Tool  available on the internet, called PowerGUI. It is a Free GUI (Graphical User Interface) PowerShell Tool sponsered by Quest. The PowerGUI allows we to use the Windows PowerShell in a familiar and intuitive GUI, like a MMC console.

I find it amazing that people continue to use Microsoft software when you have MUCH better alternatives like Firefox and Thunderbird.  The Thuderbird e-mail client is much more feature rich than Live Mail.  It obviously lacks Hotmail interoperability but I'm also amazed that people don't defect to Gmail in droves.  Makes the term "marketing intelligence" sound like an oxymoron.

Yes, a wonderful idea, but like so many things from the Great and Powerful Oz, er, I mean Microsoft, no support, no suggestions on troubleshooting.  I have a wonderful bluetooth connection, but I am still unable to send. The errors alternate between "invalid number format passed-in" and unable to dial.

Actually is has to do with the file size, not bandwidth.  I little bit of paged pool memory is used with each packet write. The paged pool memory space is finite.  If the file is larges enough you can use up most of your paged pool memory space and the file transfer comes to a crawl while the server tried to do free up more paged pool memory to continue to transmit the file.

Can't install this (936677) on one of my machines. Three tries so far. I see a couple of others commenting on the Web about installation failures. Any news?

Oh yeah. I have Office Pro 2003 installed, but ONLY the WORD application from it -- no Outlook 2003. But on two of my machines where that's the case as well, the update seems to have installed.

Hi Rui,

I’ve been looking for a way to migrate DLs and came across your blog @ this URL:  msmvps.com/.../52855.aspx

I downloaded your script and tried to use it on a Windows 2000 server with Exchange 5.5 but the script terminates prematurely with the error message:  ERROR: Wrong file format!

I’ve looked at the code and it looks like it’s stopping here:

   Do While Not objFileOut.AtEndofStream

       strLine = ReadLineProgr()

               If InStr(strLine, "dn:") <> 1 Then

           WScript.Echo "ERROR: Wrong file format!"

           WScript.Quit

       End If

By briefly looking at it, it looks like it’s checking the first line to ensure it starts with a “dn:” and if not, stop.  I’ve looked at the exports and don’t see anything wrong so I thought I’d shoot off an email to you to see if you can help.

Thanks.

I download this vhd and it works great except that you cannot access it over the network.  Somehow, the w2k3 os in the VHD is configured to ignore all external requests except ping.  I cannot figure out how to change this. Any ideas?

Can you point me to a source that explains what the permissions need to be in order to run CSVDE against a domain controller to export?

I got this working well with about 9 storage groups.  I have gone through the same steps but seem to have run into problems on the latest storage groups.

When I run the update-storagegroupcopy, I get an error stating:

Continuous replication seeding was provided a database path that does not identify viable storage.  I know that the path is not a conflict.  

Have you run into this before?

Thanks.

Would like to know if this tool can be used to make mass changes to users allowing them to be configured for Communicator 2007 as well.

Well, my secret is practice, practice, practice. Since I had lots of Exchange 2007 projects last year, it was really easy to pass in the exams.

I did some practice tests (there are a phew available online) and I like to hang up in some certification forums, you can always get some hints regarding some questions.

The Exchange Support is great news but try installing it yourself. I have in my domain where all DC’s are 2003. I built a Server 2008 box (parent) then built two instances, one for backup storage (b2d) and the other Exchange. There are issues running the prep tool on exchange using Hyper V. These issues do not exist on standard, by the book, installs on single physical box for exchange only role. I wish there was support for issues I am running into now. There are no books that explain how to properly install it on Hyper V nor do any threads/forums talk about issues that occur during a Hyper V guest instance install.

Please note that A LOT of users are having problems with this update, including:

- Information Store process not coming automatically up after the installation;

- windows installer interrupted;

- update hung on installation;

- message saying that Windows Installer was missing;

- at the end of the installation process a message popped up informing that the installation process did not succeed because of the fact that Windows Installer could not finish.

So, please test this before you actually apply it to our live servers!

Question: Is Outlook Web Access (OWA) vulnerable to the authentication bypass?

Answer: No, OWA is not vulnerable to this vulnerability. Exchange 2007 and earlier supported the WebDAV protocol but they did so with an Exchange implementation of WebDAV which only reads/write to/from the Exchange store. It does not interact with the filesystem directly.
