Exchange 2010 freeze when delete a snapshot

Hi, I have a problem when I have my backup or reproduce an Exchange Server 2010. When I do the backup or work, when jobs are finishes and to remove the snapshot from the Exchange 2010 freeze and do not respond (ping fail) and after 5 minutes, and then return the network. It's a problem because all perspectives do not work in that 5 minutes. I do the backup and replicaction with Veeam. Veeam forum told me that I have to upgrade my ESX 4.1 because the consolidation of snapshots are more clickly. I make a bet to level but maybe in a month or two and I would like to know if it is possible to solve this error in ESX 4.0.

I have the active VSS and the squiescence and do the job with the vStorage API in network mode.

Thank you very much!

I did this experiment, it is a testing environment and found that move the test in 4.1 host has resolved the problem as well.

If you have found this helpful at all prices please points using the correct or useful!  Thank you!

  • 6.1 Lightroom freezes when deleting the raw files or spend library module to develop the module

    I have Lightroom 6.1.

  • The Exchange 2010 on Esxi 5.0 virtual machine snapshot

    Dear Experts,

    We have Exchange 2010 VM under windows 2008 R2 on Esxi 5.0. I need to make the updates of windows on this machine. I want to inform if it is okay to take instant Exchange 2010 machine before performing windows updates and then delete the snapshot once the updates are performed successfully, OR it is not good to go for the snapshot and back problems due to the behavior of the application exchange 2010 I/O.

    Please let know us your opinion.

    Kind regards

    Jocelyn

    But by the way in this case once the updates are successful and we want to remove the snapshot that we took earlier by turning off the virtual machine, to remove again he must turn off the Exchange 2010 VM?

    No, you don't have to. turn off the functions of the virtual machine as a precaution to ensure that you capture a consistent instant State of the virtual machine and it is the system of files/databases, in the cases where you may need to restore the virtual computer. It is not necessary when the snapshot is deleted.

    Towards the end of the removal of snapshot operation, the virtual machine will be soon stun/unstunned to merge the last exceptional blocks into the basic disk. This basically any time a break the VM to stop him from delivering IO and the creation of delta data more, but it's transparent to the client (similar to a vMotion). You can see a loss of ping or two, or clusters of DAG can initiate a failover the virtual machine is a little inaccessible, but it should be no. impact on or be heard by the customer.

    Merging delta of the snapshot in the basic disk can take a long time, depending on how big the delta grew at the same time and the amount of data continues to be changed upon removal. The process will put some additional IO load on the storage, so I recommend you usually do the delete operation during off-peak hours. Also, make sure that you have enough free space on the data store to meet the growth of delta file.

    If we don't take any snapshot for this virtual machine, we can also directly proceed the updates of windows as we do in the event of physical Exchange Server, right?

    Yes, there is no difference for physical systems in this regard.

  • Is there an App for Exchange 2010 event entry specifying that TLogs are deleted after a successful backup?

    We use the NetWorker to back up our system of Exchange 2010, once the backup is completed successfully, we expect to see a newspaper App entry indicating that the Exchange transaction logs (Tlog) are deleted (as we do with our Exchange 2007 - ESE backup system).

    Although the Tlog files get deleted successfully, should there be an entry in the App events by telling us that in Exchange 2010?

  • Compellent snapshot for the passive copy of the database Exchange 2010

    Hi all

    I have the following Setup: A DAG with 3 Exchange 2010 mailbox servers, two of them are in the main data center and have the databases and the logs on the local storage. However, the third server is on a Data Center remote for disaster recovery and data bases, and newspapers is the Compellent storage. Of course, because it's my disaster recovery site, the database is a passive copy. However, the Replay 7.1.1.1 Manager Explorer is unable to see data in the section "Exchange shops". But if I turn the databases on this server, and then Replay Manager is able to see. My question is, how can I create snapshots of the passive copy of the database from my Exchange 2010 Server?

    Thank you!

    I confirmed that Replay Manager cannot do that; the reason? Dag have a database and are essentially sending for updating the passive copies of newspapers. Since they are not online and synchronizes the DAG status between servers backup will always attempt to occur on the asset. If only one of your copies of DAG is on an HDS, it will be a more serious problem.

    There is no restriction not to take a replay on passive volume all - except the same caveat that it will be not a quiece at the level of the BONE and being written in the log transactions is not valid. Unlike earlier versions of Exchange IS simply reject these that he committed the paper to the data store (if you try to mount the reading disaster).

  • Delete a snapshot in ESXi 5 when data store is almost full

    I'm very skiddish on use or deletion of snapshots after a disaster, I had with them last year. So, I thought I would get your recommendation before you continue.

    I have a virtual machine running on the host with about 700 GB of total space on the data store. The virtual machine uses about 500GB and there is only a snapshot of the virtual machine. The virtual machine uses a disc thin provisioned. I received a warning that there is insufficient data on the space store and there are only about 120 GB left. Is it safe to remove the snapshot? Should we double the size of the virtual machine to "consolidate? The last time I did it with multiple snapshots and a lot less space, it's disaster.

    Edit: Here's what's on the data store (for this virtual machine). There is an another VM on the same data store which shows it takes 40 GB of space.

    ApolloVMonDatastore1.png

    Here's what it says on the storage to Apollo (the virtual computer name) under summary in vSphere:

    ApolloVMsummary.png

    The basic disk can only 'baloon' upward only by the amount of data in the snapshot, which is 214 GB function provided screenshot and to be on the safe side, you have to assume that he will do. If you need to at least 214 (I'd Go 220) free on the data store for a safe removal-snapshot operation.

    Worse: these 214 GBs are given new, added after the creation of the snap. You the kickoff of the removal process. Basic disk to grow per GB 214. Currently, it consumes 355 GB so it will grow up to 569GB. Only one time all the data of the snap is committed to basic disk, the snapshot will be deleted. This is why you need some 220 GB free and available on the data store to start the removal process.

    Instant deletion on an engine out of VM might help a little, but looks like not as much as you want.

    If you shut down the virtual, pagefile will be deleted which will free up to 4 GB.

    Also if you delete a wink on the virtual machine performance, actually another cliché will be created to store the changes that VM is done during the delete operation. According to the rate of change of data within your VM and the time required for the delete operation, it will take little extra space on the data store as well. This need for extra space can be avoided by removing the snap while the VM is turned off.

    However, in your case the virtual computer power on off won't help

    Bottomline - if you can, find a way to get 220 + GB of free space on your data store before you delete the snapshot. Otherwise, the next option is VM migration to a different data store with storage vMotion (without interruption) and deletion of snapshots there (once again, potentially without interruption). A last - cloning in another data store that involves downtime.

    And you cannot clone to USB.

  • Deletion of snapshots to recover from data store space

    ESXi 4.1

    I have an ESXi host Miss space on one of its data warehouses. No 911 short, but short enough so that something needs to be done in a few weeks. On this data store, we created snapshots of some servers Exchange 2010 hosted before installing a custom Microsoft patch. So we have a server HUB, CASES and MB each with a single shot of several months that we will never have to come back. In this navigation data store, some of these 00001.vmdk files are huge, almost up to the size of the player it is a snapshot of. I believe it happened when we had backup problems and drive full of balls of trans.

    In any case, I want to remove these snapshots in snapshot Manager on each of those virtual machines by selecting the snapshot and hit delete. The problem is I've read different information about what will happen. Some of the information I've read says even this will take even MORE space. I don't know how that's possible, but I wanted to get in the forums before doing anything.

    Delete the snapshots will delete all files in capture instant hard, recovering a ton of space on the data store?

    TIA!

    The OMI 30 GB should be enough. When you delete the snapshot with the virtual machine, a snapshot of assistance is created, which will consume disk space necessary for any change, even if the current snapshot is being deleted more ~ 4GB for the snapshot file (.vmsn).

    With the virtual machine off, you will not need any addiitonal disk sapce. However, you won't be able to turn on the virtual machine again, until it's finished!

  • Delete all snapshots completely hosed my server

    I have a server ESXi 5, a 750 GB (698GB or so, is usable) local data store, quad Xeon, and 16 GB of RAM. There are two vm (s) - we're a firewall which takes about 10 GB (20 has been allocated) and the other is an Exchange Server that has 500 GB allocated was almost complete with the exception of about 10 GB. Both have been implemented using thin provisioned disks. There are also approximately 4 or 5 pictures taken of the Exchange virtual machine. Thinking that I had to delete the snapshots before you try to resize the virtual drive of 500 GB, I hit the button Delete button instant everything. All the snapshots have been removed from the list and then I could not start the virtual machine due to the lack of storage. He said that nearly 698 GB has been awarded! Then I deleted the tiny snapshots for virtual firewall machine and was able to boot the virtual machine Exchange. After doing a little housekeeping on the vm changes that I stopped him. Try to solve the delete all snapshots problem, I tried the "consolidate all snapshots' option. After several hours of waiting it failed due to lack of space. So, I thought I would reboot the physical machine to see if that helped. When he returned he showed that TB 1.4 or so, space has been allocated! And I could not start anything. Then I ran down to the server room, installed a 750 GB extra hd and started trying to move the virtual machine to empty disk. Well, who seems to have been an even worse mistake to delete all snapshots. Not only this process fails, but now the new hd (datastore2) is completely filled and the original datastore1 has about 132 GB free. The problem with this is that the virtual machine is now spread over these two data stores. Now, I've added another store of data via nfs (nfsdatastore) that has free 2.6 TB and I'm currently copy the entire contents of datastore2 via the cp command in a terminal (ssh remotely controlled).

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    OK, so let's try to clone the virtual disk in the NAS data store. Please follow the steps below and ask if there is something you don't understand or something does not work as expected.

    • Create a new folder on your NAS "UDT-MX09-EPSI" data store
    • from archive attached extracts "UDT MX09 (Exchange EPSI) .vmx" to this new folder
    • move 'UDT MX09 (Exchange EPSI)-000004.vmdk' to "datastore2/UDT-MX09-EPSI" on "datastore1/UDT-MX09-EPSI-2".
    • move 'UDT MX09 (Exchange EPSI)-000005.vmdk' to "datastore2/UDT-MX09-EPSI" on "datastore1/UDT-MX09-EPSI-2".
    • from archive attached extracts "UDT MX09 (Exchange EPSI)-000003.vmdk" "datastore1/UDT-MX09-EPSI-2"replaces the existing file.
    • from the command line run:
      "vmkfstools-i" / vmfs/volumes/datastore1/UDT-MX09-EPSI-2/UDT MX09 (Exchange EPSI)-000004.vmdk "" / vmfs/volumes/nfsdatastore/UDT-MX09-EPSI/UDT MX09 (Exchange EPSI) hard. "

    If cloning is successful, do a right-click the virtual machine in the inventory and select 'Remove inventory', then - using the browser from data store - click with the right button on the .vmx file in the folder of the virtual machine on the NAS data store and select "add to the inventory. When you start the virtual computer you may be asked if you have moved or copied the VM. Make sure you select that "I moved it.

  • In-Guest iSCSI for Exchange 2010

    Hi, we just built and are ready to go into production with Exchange 2010 using LUNS in guest through the card Microsoft iSCSI initiator iSCSI separate network for iSCSI etc. Load tested with JetStress and everything seems fine. We just found out as snapshots are not supported with iSCSI in guest so we are concerned that the other things work or be taken in charge or another, i.e. of vmotion. So, does anyone know if we lose any other characteristic, and we need to change our minds and using ESX iSCSI? I read pieces on being comparable, that we stuck with a guest performance because that's what we know with our existing Exchange 2007 environment (physical). If we must change, is it simple?

    Hey everyone who is following this thread or found via Google.  It is important to understand what is and is not supported when you are running Exchange on a virtual machine.

    To be absolutely clear, combining Exchange 2010 DAG and migration technologies such as vMotion technology is supported.  You must ensure that you are running at least Exchange 2010 SP1 as well as a version of vSphere that sits on the server virtualization Validation program.

    I think that the link was already posted, but here is the final link:

    http://blogs.technet.com/b/Exchange/archive/2011/05/16/announcing-enhanced-hardware-virtualization-support-for-Exchange-2010.aspx

    More specifically, since the post above (in bold italics):

    Combining Exchange 2010 high availability solutions (database availability groups (DAG)) with hypervisor clustering high availability and migration solutions that will be moving or automatically failover servers for mailboxes that are members of a DAG between clustered root servers, is now supported.

    Improved, that we did in Exchange Server 2010 SP1, with more comprehensive tests of Exchange 2010 in an environment that is virtualized, we are pleased to offer this additional deployment flexibility to our customers. Management of updated support applies to any provider of hardware virtualization that participate in the Windows Server Virtualization Validation Program (SVVP).

    Logiboy123, can you provide any documents to support the statement that Microsoft does not support this configuration?  The above quotes are directly from Microsoft and are very clear that they support not only the migration of Microsoft technology, but also similar to any other provider of the hypervisor technology, provided that they are in the SVVP program.

    Since vSphere is part of the SVVP, Microsoft has extended support for the technologies of migration such as vMotion, in addition to their own Live Migration.  Of course, simply support something does not automatically make it works.  If you want knots vMotion DAG works correctly, you might have settings described in this blog post extended the cluster heartbeat timeout (also a fully supported configuration change):

    http://www.thelowercasew.com/vSphere-and-Exchange-Admins-can-live-in-harmony-Microsoft-finally-supports-HA-and-VMotion

    To answer the original question in this post, using the Protocol in-guest iSCSI is supported and with vMotion in this configuration is supported as well.  You're not really 'give up whatever it is' using this configuration well so if it meets your needs, I would stick with it.  I prefer generally VMFS just because of the flexibility it offers, but all the world has different requirements and I have absolutely no problem with guest iSCSI if your organization requires it.

    Do not forget that whatever configuration, snapshots of virtual machine are not supported for Exchange. Here is another post which goes into detail on it and cover the declaration of support for Microsoft Exchange 2010 snapshots and machine virtual: http://www.thelowercasew.com/virtual-machine-snapshots-and-tier-1-apps-not-always-supported

    So in general, I would say that provided you are running the correct versions of Exchange and vSphere must then take full advantage of your configuration to use features like vMotion and HA without problem.  If you adjust your settings accordingly cluster heartbeat timeout, you should have no problem using vMotion with your knots of DAG.

  • Why TB does not freeze when I click on account settings? (Goes from bad to worse!)

    A few days ago, I posted a question about migration backup emails in TB. I got help, but not a definitive answer to my problems. Unfortunately, my wife and I seem to have created an additional problem which must be resolved before we return to the issue of migration of file. Now, TB freezes when I try to check the settings of an account. This may be due to our attempt to copy an old e-mail folder (file .sbd), in my current profile. That's how it happened:

    We copied a saved .sbd folder to
    C:\Users\FF\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles\pnp8j2nf.default\Mail\Local records
    We have not seen any change in TB.

    Then, in TB, we created a folder under local folders, giving it the same name as the .sbd that we had copied. The content become so visible in TB.

    When I tried to check the settings of an account, TB has frozen. Restart TB did not help. Then we tried to go back to our previous steps by deleting the folder newly created in TB and .sbd file in local folders. I restarted TB and PC, but TB still freezes when we try to check the account settings.

    Think that we could have corrupted profile, we also renamed the 8 character profiles .default under C:\Users\FrankF\AppData\Local\Thunderbird\Profiles and C:\Users\FrankF\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles, hoping TB would generate a new profile, but now the TB does not start without the profile.

    We wonder if we should remove profiles.ini or remove its contents to force TB to create a new profile. Any advice on which are originally the gel and how to fix? Thanks in advance.

    Apparent victory! I copied my saved files (trrevilc.default) to

    C:\Users\FF\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles and edited profiles.ini, changing -
    

    [Agroalimentaire1]
    Name =TB difficulty
    IsRelative = 1
    Path = Profiles /kdtnv197. Fix TB
    Default = 1

    TO

    [Agroalimentaire1]
    Name =PlanetXP
    IsRelative = 1
    Path = Profiles /trrevilc.default
    Default = 1

    and Voila! my darlings old emails and accounts reappeared... even though I have an e-mail account w a problem.

    I'm still wondering (after I backup C:\Users\FF) the best way to remove the other profiles. Suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks again.

    As he says, I had a difficult time with Firefox lately, and I think that it's corrupted. I tweaked the settings according to the suggestions on this forum and others like him, but they made the problem worse. I've updated to the latest version of the browser that has not helped, and I finally tried the "Reset Firefox" button, which was worse than anything. I lost my custom settings and Add-ons for nothing, the problem persists.

    More frustrating is that it completely crashes whenever I click on tools > Options, so I'm not able to make changes to this new configuration. If I export my favorites safely, I will try to uninstall the browser and re - install an older version of it, but of course it now freezes when I try to export the bookmarks file.

    Thus, apart from trashing it and starting over... any suggestions?

    For the record, it's Firefox 28.0 (do not know what version it was the beginning of the sentence), and the window "On Firefox" said that it is up-to-date. I am running Windows XP.

    Thanks for any help or enlightenment, you might be able to provide.

    Hello

    Some Firefox problems can be solved by performing a clean reinstall. This means that you remove Firefox program files, and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:

    Note: You can print these steps or consult them in another browser.

    1. Download the latest version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org office and save the installer to your computer.
    2. Once the download is complete, close all Firefox Windows (click on quit in the file menu or Firefox).
    3. Remove the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
      • Windows:

        • C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
        • C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla Firefox
      • Mac: Delete Firefox in the Applications folder.
      • Linux: If you have installed Firefox with the distribution-based package manager, you must use the same way to uninstall: see Install Firefox on Linux. If you have downloaded and installed the binary package from the Firefox download page, simply remove the folder firefox in your home directory.
    4. Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
      1. Double-click on the downloaded Setup file and go through the steps in the installation wizard.
      2. Once the wizard is completed, click to open Firefox directly after clicking the Finish button.

    More information on the resettlement of Firefox can be found here.

    WARNING: Uninstaller or the use of Firefox and not run a third remover as part of this process, because who could permanently delete your Firefox data, including but not limited to, extensions, cache, cookies, bookmarks, personal settings and passwords saved. These can be recovered, unless they have been backed up on an external device!

    Please report back to see if this helped you!

    Thank you.
