I have been meaning to write this for a little while but have been trying to find the time to sit down and think it through so that it might be of benefit to someone. The history behind this article is that I get asked quite a bit both via this site and indeed from […]

Articles focused around Exchange 2007.
Exchange 2007 – Service Pack 1 – Service Pack 3 Address List Segregation Tool Version 2.2.0 .NET – Part 1 (Installation and initial Segregation)…
Well, it is finally here – after months of development, hard work, swearing, beer, pizza and almost one divorce (mind you if there was two divorces on the cards I would have a lot of explaining to do) – I am very proud to present to you version 2.2.0 of my Exchange 2007 Address List […]
Exchange 2007 Service Pack 2 with the Exchange Plug-in, Recovery Storage Groups and Windows 2008 Server Backup…
Well I guess the title of this article perhaps might belong in a techno nerdy film (or perhaps not); but as it indeed suggests I have been playing around with Exchange 2007 SP2 (like many Exchange admins) but more to the point the new (and long awaited) VSS plug in for Windows 2008 Server. The […]
Quick Tip – Simplified Message Tracking of Senders to HTML in Exchange 2007…
I have been doing some scripting recently for the current firm that I work for; prior to my jaunt off into the sunset to take up a new position. My tasks have primarily been focussed around defining some Exchange Management Shell scripts which will allow for simple tasks to be completed. In this article I […]
Exchange 2007 CCR – Going Pro (as in Production) – Part 2 – deriving production CCR Hardware Specifications for 8000 users…
In the first part of this article – which I wrote many moons ago (located here: Exchange 2007 CCR – Going Pro (as in Production) – Part 1 – some food for thought (or perhaps not)…) I rambled about a number of things which initially stemmed from the perspective of should you consider CCR in […]
Exchange 2007 – Tracking and Analysing Large Mailbox Move Reports – using the ExchangeMoveMailboxTaskViewer Tool…
Sorry folks, it has been a while since I last posted, it has been a very busy period for me; not just with rebuilding a Data Centre (which is now completed), but I have also been working on a few very large Exchange 2003 to Exchange 2007 migrations (see an up and coming post) – […]
Switching CCR Storage Groups into Circular Logging during Migration – and why you might want to do this…
Ok, generally speaking – in production environments you would not consider running a Storage Group with Circular logging enabled. But, there are a few occasions where it is useful to do so – the most common of which is during large Migration Scenario’s. You see when you move a mailbox from Exchange 2003 / or […]
Exchange 2007 / 2010 – Export all Registry Settings using Powershell…
Been doing a little tidy up and performance review recently on a number of my Exchange Servers in work, and whilst doing so I noticed that I have (over the years) made a number few changes to the Windows Registry in relation to the Exchange Services. Whilst reviewing these changes, I can recall that there […]
Windows 2008 Failover Clustering – Adding a Second Node into the Cluster Fails (The operation returned because the timeout period expired)…
I have been very busy recently on a number of projects which have, alas taken me away from working with Exchange (much to my dismay). However a requirement has arisen in work where we needed to add in another clustered CCR mailbox server to support an additional 1200 users (my company has assimilated a number […]
Installing Service Pack 2 for Exchange 2007 on your CAS / HT / Mailbox and Clustered Instances…
As many of you probably know, the Exchange team released Service Pack 2 for Exchange 2007 last week (perhaps this was a little overshadowed by the release of Exchange 2010 RC1). Service pack 2 contains a number of of fixes and some really useful new features (the following is take from the Microsoft TechNet site). […]
