BES 5.0.3 for Exchange 2010 tips needed

[ Edited ]

Hello folks,

 

I've just finished setting up our BES Exchange Env and coming exclusively from a Domino background I was wondering if anyone could pass on their tips and extra config setting for an optimal production env, below a summary of our setup:

 

4 x BESX 5.0.3 MR6 HA pairs

Microsoft Exchange 2010 SP1

Windows 2008 R2

 

All BES connect using a F5 load balancer to a CAS array and I've found the following KBs which will be using to avoid the timeouts.

Any other general tips in order to have an optimal setup would be greatly appreciated!

 

Thanks

Re: BES 5.0.3 for Exchange 2010 tips needed

there is a NSPI session limitation in 2008/R2 that is overlooked a lot

 

make sure your service account is set correctly

 

use EWS and not CDO if possible, seems to work better

 

dont update java, unless you know whats going to happen

Thanks for that, i'm aware of the NSPI limit and have already implemented that.

 

Service account is fine, all checked

 

I'll trawl through the last 500 posts like you said :smileywink:
