Today I came office and got call from some client that his OCS Server is not working and all the users are not able to connect to server.
I started work on it and found something interesting so I thought that I should share with all that what it was.
I got a message when I was trying to start services
.
Also getting error in event viewer which is below
I simply open Active Directory Users & Computers and RTCComponentService Account and checked the check box of Password never expire and every thing was green.

As I got this query and solved the problem so I M sharing it with all that how you can grant permissions to your Helpdesk.
I did it in Exchange 2007 but I think it will apply on Exchange 2010 as well.
You can run below command which gives “Administer Information Store” (ms-Exch-Store-Admin) rights to your helpdesk staffs that allow them to give full access rights to all users of your Exchange organization.
Add-ADPermission -Identity “CN=CompanyOrg ,CN=Microsoft Exchange,CN=Services,CN=Configuration,DC=company ,DC=com” -User “company\HelpDeskStaffs ” -ExtendedRights ms-Exch-Store-Admin -InheritanceType All

I was digging out with CU 6 of OCS 2007 R2 and was getting some problems for updating this so I searched on net and got some steps which I M sharing with you as well maybe this could help you.
One cause could be the web caches that Microsoft uses publish the updated bits are lagging behind. due to the updates always having the same filename from Cumulative Update to Cumulative Update, and it is really hard to determine what version you have downloaded without looking at the file dates stored in each individual update.
So found that if the front-end is updated without the proper back-end update, the front-end will complain about version mismatches in the SQL stored procedures.
Install the OCS2009-DBUpgrade.msi before the other CU6 updates.
I found some good stuff on this blog which is at http://www.confusedamused.com/
I found a little about the .NET 4.0 issue here a few days ago but now that .NET 4.0 is on Windows/Microsoft Update as a recommended update, it is hitting more users during OCS installation.
If you install .NET 4.0 Framework before installing any OCS server role, the OCS setup program will complain that .NET 3.5x is not installed, even if you have .NET 3.5x installed (x being equal to 0 or 1, meaning .NET 3.50 or .NET 3.51).
Solution? Uninstall .NET 4.0 Framework, install OCS server roles, and then install .NET 4.0 if necessary. The OCS product team is working with the Windows product team to get a hotfix/update out for this.
I hope this will informative for you and I would like to thank you for viewing.

Installing Exchange Server 2010 Step by Step
First of all have a look as prerequisites and confirm that you have install all the prerequisites before starting installation.
Prerequisites
Before installing Exchange Server 2010, here are the prerequisites to be installed on Exchange Server’s System.
1. Net Framework 3.5
2. Powershell 2.0 CTP 3
3. Windows Remote Management
The components mentioned above must be installed regardless of which role you wish to install.
Step by Step
1. Prepare your forest and organization in Active Directory
First you need to do the Schema preparation. Since this is a fresh new setup in the lab, I will perform the preparation on domain controller
Run Setup from the directory where your Exchange 2010 installation files are located. Here is the cmdlets
Setup /PrepareSchema or Setup /ps
*If you are running the prep process on the computer which is member of the forest or domain, and the OS is Windows Server 2008, you need to install the following component before executing the prep.
ServerManagerCmd -i RSAT-ADDS
Now we have done the initial preparation. The forest and domain are ready to have the first Exchange 2010 server installed. But if you will not run this command setup will prepare schema itself don’t worry.
2. Install first Exchange 2010 server
We will do that on server which will have Client Access Role, Transport Role and Mailbox Role. There are additional components needed before Exchange installation.,
As my first Exchange server is a combination all the 3 roles mentioned above, I used the following command
ServerManagerCmd -i Web-Server Web-Metabase Web-Lgcy-Mgmt-Console Web-Basic-Auth Web-Windows-Auth Web-Net-Ext Web-Digest-Auth Web-Dyn-Compression NET-HTTP-Activation Web-ISAPI-Ext RPC-over-HTTP-proxy RSAT-ADDS
Here is the break down of what you will need to install in role level.
For Client Access Role
ServerManagerCmd -i Web-Server Web-Metabase Web-Lgcy-Mgmt-Console Web-Basic-Auth Web-Windows-Auth Web-Net-Ext Web-Digest-Auth Web-Dyn-Compression NET-HTTP-Activation Web-ISAPI-Ext RPC-over-HTTP-proxy RSAT-ADDS
For Transport Role
ServerManagerCmd -i Web-Server Web-Metabase Web-Lgcy-Mgmt-Console Web-Basic-Auth Web-Windows-Auth Web-Net-Ext RSAT-ADDS
For Mailbox Role
ServerManagerCmd -i Web-Server Web-Metabase Web-Lgcy-Mgmt-Console Web-Basic-Auth Web-Windows-Auth Web-Net-Ext RSAT-ADDS
*For Mailbox Role, you have to install another component call “MSFilter Pack“
After the installation, you are required to perform restart server.
There are some updates & fixes need to be applied in specific Server roles.
For Client Access Role
KB951725, KB950888, KB952664, KB953290
For Transport Role
For Mailbox Role
Now we are truly ready for the installation.
Enter CD on your CDROM Drive and double click on sertup.exe file and this will kickoff setup.
And you will get the screen like below.
Choose step 4 and click on Install Microsoft Exchange.
Click next.
Accept the License agreement and click next.
Click yes for online support and click next.
Now it depends on your environment that which role you are installing if you will go with typical install than you will get the Client Access Role, Hub Transport Role and Mailbox Role installed on your system but I will choose the custom install for further details now click next.
Select the Roles which you wish to install and click next.
Specify the Organization name and make sure that it’s correct because this is not changeable so be prepare first and then use the name of your Organization and click next.
If you are using Outlook 2003 in your organization and also using public folder structure so click yes and next. In my case there is no Outlook 2003 so I am going with No.
If you are planning to use Client Access Role for External use so put the External URL and click next as it’s my LAB so I am not giving External URL here. Click next.
Setup will check your configurations and will tell you that you are ready for installation or not.
In this screen just click Install and sit back after completion you will get the screen as below.
You have now completed the installation and enjoy
I hope this will informative for you and I would like to Thank you for viewing.
Since last 20 days I was sucked by OCS 2007 R2 Deployment on Windows Server 2008 R2 but all in vain. But Thanks to All Mighty ALLAH that I have did it completely and also I want to share that what is the main problem in this deployment.
First of all I started Deployment step by step everything was ok .
01. I started MOC and get login.
02. I started IM.
03. I started Voice & Video.
04. I started Desktop Sharing.
And done, nothing wrong so what’s the problem than?
When I started LiveMeeting I got error as below.
Now my work start and I cannot really tell you that how hard it was for me at that time but finally I got the solution and everything is up and running now but how?
I started with the help of these articles which are really very nice but I did not get done with these articles even I got a lot of help you can check them as well.
So I read them carefully and I did all the things step by step but I got the same error again & again than I started brainstorming and figure out the meaning of cumulative update (it means the bunch of updates not complete updates till date) and I started updating my server with all the cumulative updates which I cannot find on internet because when I go through the link they get me on July 2010 update page which is the latest update yet. I got some updates from my old data which was released in Feb 2010 and I installed them on my server and then updated them to July update which you can find here
And after that everything will be green and clean.
So guys I hope this will help you.
