• CU1 on 4/2/13 (15.00.0620.29)• http://aka.ms/E15RTMCU1

• CU2• Originally released on 7/9/13 (15.00.0712.22)• Re-released 7/29/13 (15.00.0712.024)• http://aka.ms/E15RTMCU2

Milestones

• Available in three server editions• Standard – 5 mounted databases per Mailbox server• Enterprise – 100 mounted databases per Mailbox server (CU2 and later)• Hybrid – Standard SKU for Office 365 hybrid

• Mounted database is…• An active mailbox database mounted and attached to the Store for use

by clients• A passive mailbox database mounted and attached to the Replication

service• Recovery database does not count towards this limit

Editions

• Exchange Server 2013 Hybrid Edition• Exchange Server 2013 includes native hybrid capabilities• Exchange Server 2007 or Exchange Server 2010 use Exchange 2013

Hybrid Edition• Exchange Server 2010 customers can also continue to connect their

organizations directly to Exchange Online without an additional Hybrid Edition server if they are updated to the latest service pack, or they can choose to install an Exchange Server 2013 hybrid server

• Exchange 2003 customers can continue to use Exchange 2010 Hybrid Edition servers to connect to Exchange Online with the latest service pack

Editions

• CUs are routine product updates• Initially expected to be delivered quarterly; however that may change

as needed to improve test coverage and quality

• Each CU shipped to on-premises customers will be the same version used in Exchange Online

• Security updates delivered via independent packages• Can be applied to a previously released CU or installed during the

upgrade to the current CU

Cumulative Updates

• Benefits of new model• Predictable release cadence• Dedicated security releases• Datacenter scale validation• Improved support for hybrid deployments• More rapid changes to language resources

• Differences between CUs and URs• CUs are larger update packages (full product)• Server customizations overwritten and must be reapplied• CUs have a specific installation failure recovery process

(/RecoverServer)• Server version number updated with CU install

IW and Calendaring

• Three views for Outlook Web App• Traditional Desktop view (3-column mouse-based UI)• Tablet view (2-column touch UI aka twide)• Phone view (1-column touch UI aka tnarrow)

• Change the view on the fly• Switch from twide (default) to tnarrow• https://<FQDN>/owa/?layout=tnarrow• https://<FQDN>/owa/?layout=twide

• No folder management in touch layout (twide)

IW – Outlook Web App

• Default logging period changed from 120 to 31 days

• Set-Mailbox and Set-MailboxDatabase have CalendarLoggingQuota parameter• Default is 20% of Dumpster Quota

• Use Get-CalendarDiagnosticLogAnalysis to analyze results from Get-CalendarDiagnosticLog

• Logging period not exposed to database or mailbox cmdlets, but logging quota value can be set at either level

Calendaring

• Logging details allow you to:• Learn what client made the last operation on the calendar item • Learn what action was last performed on a calendar item • View a change history of the calendar item • Quickly pivot on a well-known set of properties that are most important

to calendar items • Allow user to quickly access full set of properties

• Useful in many real-world scenarios, e.g.,• An executive shows up to a meeting and is the only one there• You collect calendar logs from organizer and one attendee• You run analysis on collected logs to generate the timeline• And you find that the executive used some device to

edit a single meeting, and it caused their whole series to be deleted

Calendaring

• Calendar Repair Assistant enhancements• CRA is EWS-based; no more direct mailbox access cross-server• Set-MailboxServer –CalendarRepairMode• ValidateOnly• RepairandValidate

• Improved CRA logging• Output both Repair log and Validation log• Output Item count on each mailbox including:• Total items• Items inconsistent• Items failed to validate• Reason why failed to validate

Calendaring

Transport

• Queue Velocity• Transport measures the rate of messages entering and leaving a queue

and stores these values in queue properties• You can use these values as an indicator of queue and transport health

• Incoming Rate• Rate at which messages are entering the queue• Calculated from the number of messages entering the queue every 5

seconds averaged over the last 60 seconds• (i1+i2+i3+i4+i5+i6)/6 where in is the number of incoming messages

in 5 seconds

• Outgoing Rate• (o1+o2+o3+o4+o5+o6)/6 where on is the number of outgoing

messages in 5 seconds

Transport

• Queue Velocity• Represents the drain rate of the queue• O-I=V (OutgoingRate – IncomingRate = Velocity)• If V>0, messages leaving queue faster than they are entering (fast

queue)• If V=0, messages leaving queue as fast as they are entering

(balanced queue)• If V<0, messages entering queue faster than they are leaving (slow

queue)

• Also factor in MessageCount• A queue that has a large negative Velocity, a large MessageCount

value, a small OutgoingRate value, and a large IncomingRate value indicates that the queue isn't draining properly

• A queue with a negative Velocity that's almost zero that also has very small values for IncomingRate, OutgoingRate, and MessageCount doesn't indicate a problem with the queue

• Get-Queue works with Exchange 2010/2013• It does not work with Exchange 2007

The Queue Viewer operation on Computer "Server" has failed with exception. The error message is: Unknown error (Oxe043f4d)

• Use Exchange 2007 tools to manage Exchange 2007 queues

Transport

• Queue Logging Enabled and Non-Configurable• Transport Service takes snapshot of queue every 60 seconds• Cannot be turned off• Logs to CSV text file at

\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange\Server\V15\TransportRoles\Logs\Hub\QueueViewer\• Records any queues with messages (including internal queues)• Does not record empty queues, shadow queues, or poison queues• Logs the following information:

Search, Discovery and Compliance

• Office Filter Pack (OFP) not needed in all cases• Search Foundation includes a superset of OFP• OFP adds support for OneNote and Publisher files in transport rules• Setup generates warning without them, so documentation says they

are needed

• File Types and iFilters• File types supported by transport rules - http://aka.ms/TRFileTypes• PDF format is supported without having to install an iFilter

• Register iFilters with Exchange 2013 - http://aka.ms/ExIFilters• Custom iFilters not supported

• Third-party iFilters work for Transport Rules, but not for Outlook Web App search

Search - Basics

• Even if format is supported, not all attachments may be processed because• There are too many attachments, or…• Nesting is too deep, or…• Processing is disabled

• HKLM\Software\Microsoft\ExchangeServer\v15\Search\SystemParameters• MaxAttachmentCount (default is 10)• MaxAttachmentDepth (default is 2)• ProcessImages (default is 0)• MarkSkippedImagesAsPartiallyProcessed (default is 0)

Search – Message/Attachment Processing

• Search Foundation uses a worker process model• Search Process: Microsoft Exchange Search

(Microsoft.Exchange.Search.Service.exe)• Host Process: Microsoft Exchange Search Host Controller

(HostControllerService.exe)• Worker Processes: NodeRunner.exe (x4)

• NodeRunner Nodes• Admin• Content• Index• Query

Search – NodeRunners

• Task Manager provides detailed information• Identified as Microsoft SharePoint Search Component• Add Command Line column to view to distinguish between

NodeRunners• Admin Node - AdminNode1• Content Node - ContentEngineNode1• Index Node - IndexNode1• Query - InteractionEngineNode1

Modern Public Folders

• Mailbox-based• Primary Hierarchy and Secondary Hierarchy Mailboxes• Single-master replication model

• Uses Incremental Change Synchronization (ICS) for replication• If users are connected, check every 15 min• If not connected, check every 24 hours• Update-PublicFolderMailbox –InvokeSynchronizer to manually sync

Modern Public Folders - Basics

Modern Public Folders - Basics• Limitations• Difficult rollback to legacy public folders• Mailbox restore | import | export cmdlets don’t work• No coexistence with legacy public folders• Content not indexed/searchable• Retention policies cannot be applied• Cross-forest migrations not supported• Get-PublicFolderStatistics no longer provides same information

• If legacy Public Folders exist, the Primary Hierarchy mailbox must be created with -HoldForMigration switch

Modern Public FoldersDetermine if public folder mailbox has up-to-date copy of hierarchy

Get-PublicFolder \ -recurse -resultsize unlimited | where {$_.contentmailboxname -eq "<PF Mailbox ID>"}

List only public folders with contentGet-PublicFolder \ -recurse -resultsize unlimited -Mailbox <PF Mailbox ID> -ResidentFolders

Modern Public FoldersMove public folder content between mailboxesNew-PublicFolderMoveRequest -Folders "\Folder1","\Folder1\Child1" -TargetMailbox <PF Mailbox Identity>

Notes:• Subfolders underneath specified folders are not moved by default

• Each folder to be move must be listed in the –Folders parameter

• Only one move request at a time; use Remove-PublicFolderMoveRequest to remove completed move requests

• Understand Public Folder Routing• Legacy and Modern Public Folders cannot coexist• Messages are routed to either Legacy or Modern• Public Folders locked for last phase of migration• Messages sent while locked get stuck in queue• Failed to process message due to a transient exception with message

Cannot open mailbox• Forcing connection/message retry won’t fix this

Modern Public Folders

• Understand Public Folder Routing• After migration is complete, restart Transport service on servers with

stuck messages• Messages will be redirected to modern PFs• Redirect event logged in message tracking• Subsequent messages sent to legacy folders will be redirected to

modern PFs• Redirect event logged in message tracking

Modern Public Folders

Modern Public FoldersRecover deleted modern public folder

When a modern public folder is deleted, it is moved to \NON_IPM_Subtree\Dumpster_Root

To recover deleted modern public folder:Set-PublicFolder "\NON_IPM_Subtree\Dumpster_Root\<FolderToRecover>" –Path "\ParentFolder"

Managed Availability

Get-HealthReport streamlined and enhanced in CU1

Get-HealthReport originally consumed results from Get-ServerHealth

Initial implementation was painfully slow due to remoting and the number of entries that can be piped

Get-HealthReport performs its own RPCs to gather info

• Managed Availability logs all recovery actions to the crimson channel• Microsoft.Exchange.ManagedAvailability/RecoveryActions• Event 500 indicates that a recovery action was started• Event 501 indicates that a recovery action was successful• Event 502 indicates that a recovery action was unsuccessful

Managed Availability

Managed AvailabilityAll recovery actions can be collected using PowerShell:

$RecoveryActionResultsEvents = Get-WinEvent -ComputerName <Server> -LogName Microsoft-Exchange-ManagedAvailability/RecoveryActionResults

You can use the events in the above format, but it is easier to work with the event properties if you use PowerShell’s native XML format:

$RecoveryActionResultsXML = ($RecoveryActionResultsEvents | Foreach-object -Process {[XML]$_.toXml()}).event.userData.eventXml

• Useful properties for Recovery Action event• Id - Action that was taken. Common values are RestartService,

RecycleAppPool, ComponentOffline, or ServerFailover• State - Whether the action has started (event 500) or finished (event

501)• ResourceName - The object that was affected by the action. This will be

the name of a service for RestartService actions, or the name of a server for server-level actions

• EndTime - The time the action completed• Result - Whether the action succeeded or not• RequestorName - The name of the Responder that took the action

• Managed Availability messages are journaled when global journaling is enabled• Occurs roughly every minute and creates a lot of noise in journal

mailbox

• Two workarounds for this issue • Use Journaling Rules instead of Global Journaling • Add either Global or Local Monitor Override• Global Active Monitoring override disables all monitoring • Local Active Monitoring Override is just for single server and stored in

registry• See http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2823959 for more info on creating

a global override for this issue
