Windows Server / How to manually change Windows...
Last post by admin - August 07, 2014, 01:38:40 PM
(HOW TO MANUALLY CHANGE WINDOWS UPDATE SOURCE)
How to change the source for windows updates.  Can be a windows update server on a domain, or from the internet.  You can tell the source by opening Windows Update and check the "You receive updates".
"Managed by your system administrator" = pulls from local Windows Update domain server.
"For Windows and other products from Microsoft Update" = pulls from Microsoft Update Servers on Internet.

(USE LOCAL DOMAIN UPDATE SERVERS)
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate\AU]
"UseWUServer"=dword:00000001


(USE MICROSOFT UPDATE SERVER ON THE INTERNET)
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate\AU]
"UseWUServer"=dword:00000000


NOTE: After making changes. Restart the "Windows Update" service (or reboot PC), for changes to take effect.

How to Restore Exchange Mailbox from a Windows Backup

1.) Restore Database from Windows backup to an alternate location.

2.) Run ESEUTIL /MH "e:\recovery\recovered_exchange.edb" to check the database state. (i.e. dirty shutdown)

3.) Run ESEUTIL /P on restored database to get to a clean state (will take a long time).

4.) Run ESEUTIL /MH after repair, to confirm database is in a clean state.

5.) Once in a clean state. Create the database so it will show up in ESM.
New-MailboxDatabase -Recovery -Name RDB1 -Server TAGOSEX -EdbFilePath "e:\Recovery\RDB1.EDB" -LogFolderPath "e:\Recovery"

6.) Go to ESM and mount the database.

7.) Once the database is mounted.  Restore the recovered mailbox from the recovered database, to a mailbox on your production exchange server/database.
New-MailboxRestoreRequest -SourceDatabase RDB1 -SourceStoreMailbox "jdoe" -TargetMailbox jdoe

or if you are restoring from jdoe to another mailbox like an admin mailbox use the -AllowLegacyDNMismatch parameter.
New-MailboxRestoreRequest -SourceDatabase RDB1 -SourceStoreMailbox "jdoe" -TargetMailbox jdoe -AllowLegacyDNMismatch

8.) To check the restore progress type: Get-MailboxRestoreRequest
