Windows 2012 Cluster with Exchange 2013 DAG
I have a question regarding Windows 2012 Failover clustering.
We have Windows 2012 running with Exchange 2013 DAG. 8 nodes 1 witness server
There are few instances where one of the nodes lost the quorum due to network issues. When ever that happens cluster service goes in restarting (crashing). I tried to change Cluster service to manual and then start it but, it just keep crashing until I restart the server after that it works fine that node once again gets added into the quorum without any issues.
My question - Is it normal behavior if node lose the quorum cluster service keep restarting until you restart the server? Or is there any way to bring back that server in the quorum without restart of the server.
clussvc.exe version 6.2.9200.21268
Error
The Cluster Service service terminated unexpectedly. It has done this 15 time(s). The following corrective action will be taken in 60000 milliseconds: Restart the service.
Thanks,

Create Custom Folders For Specific Users
I have been asked to find a way to create custom folders that will show up in a users Outlook Client. Basically, when someone is hired and they belong to this specific group OU group or security group they
would be assigned a custom folder list from Exchange 2013. This custom folder list would show up in the users Outlook. Has anyone done something like this? Is it possible?
Any help would be appreciated.

After Exchange 2013 CU9 Get-MailboxDatabase returns objects with incorrect property types
It appears after CU9, unless you have installed the CU9 management tools locally on the machine, Get-MailboxDatabase returns objects whose properties are mostly strings
Take the following commands
[1] (Get-MailboxDatabase)[0].ActivationPreference | gm
[2] (Get-MailboxDatabase)[0].ProhibitSendQuota | gm
On a machine with CU9 installed, the following is returned
[1] TypeName: System.Collections.Generic.KeyValuePair`2[[Microsoft.Exchange.Data.Directory.ADObjectId,Microsoft.Exchange.Data.Directory, Version=15.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35],[System.Int32,mscorlib, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089]]
[2] TypeName: Microsoft.Exchange.Data.Unlimited`1[[Microsoft.Exchange.Data.ByteQuantifiedSize, Microsoft.Exchange.Data,
Version=15.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35]]
However, on a machine without the tools installed from CU9, OR, on a machine that has no tools and simply does a remote powershell session, the following is returned
[1] TypeName: System.String
[2] TypeName: System.String
I suspect that upgrading the tools to those included with CU9 may fix the issue, a colleague did a fresh install using the CU9 install and his seems to work as expected.
Is anyone else seeing something like this?

Users can see public folders in outlook that they do not have access to
Hi all
We are running Exchange 2013 and Outlook 2010. Some users can see some public folders in their Outlook that they do not have access too.
The users only see an empty folder when they try to open it.
I can't remove those folders from the public folder list. I do not think the users should have something visible they do not use.
Do you know where I can do that ?
Thanks in advance

Thx a lot,
Message cannot be delivered - DAG Maintenance mode
Recently I needed to do some maintenance to 1 of the members in our 3 node Exchange 2013 DAG. I put the server in maintenance mode using the following commands.
Set-ServerComponentState servername –Component HubTransport –State Draining –Requester Maintenance
Suspend-ClusterNode –Name servername
Set-MailboxServer servername –DatabaseCopyActivationDisabledAndMoveNow $true
Get-MailboxServer servername | Select DatabaseCopyAutoActivationPolicy
Set-MailboxServer servername –DatabaseCopyAutoActivationPolicy Blocked
Set-ServerComponentState servername –Component ServerWideOffline –State InActive –Requester Maintenance
Once all of the commands had run I confirmed that the server was in maintenance mode before I began updating that server. Once I began updating the server, I got a call from a user that they can't send email. They received an NDR that said their email could not be delivered. I had the user try and resend the email and it went through fine. My question is, how do I prevent from happening in the future? I thought once the server was in maintenance mode it could not be contacted by clients. Should I also add I line to my script that also stops the transport service to prevent any connections? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

"Office 365 Mailbox" missing for users that are member of Ricipent Management role
Hi,
I have a hybrid setup with Office 365 and one exchange 2013 standard server on-premises.
I currently have an issue with that I have a button after pressing the + under recipient to create a Office 365 mailbox from the ECP, but users that are members of the Recipient Management role don't have that button visible.
What extra permissions are required to be able to create an Office 365 mailbox from the on-premises Exchange?

Exchange Server 2013 Report tools
Hey folks,
I was curious what was a recommended reporting tool for Exchange 2013. Is there a handy out-of-the-box solution for reporting Mailbox trends, sizes? Reports on general email usage for users, groups etc? Would there be a solution that offers reports, but also offers real time alerts, say if the DAG goes down or there's something nasty going on with the server?
Anyway, thanks for your suggestions!
