Office 365 International User Group

March 30th, 2012 No comments

I have been working on getting an International Office 365 user group with several Office 365 MVP’s. After a delay on my part I am happy to announce that I have setup a Mailchimp.com account for the group and a Linkedin.com group.

Please go to http://home.office365evangelist.com/Pages/Office365UserGroup.aspx to sign up for the User Group. I will be using the Mailchimp.com and Linkedin.com group to publicize the group further!

Please pass this along to anyone who think would be interested in joining.

Fix for Enabling Online Archive in Office 365 Hybrid Deployment

March 30th, 2012 16 comments

So I blogged a little while ago about an issue with enabling Online Archive for a Migrated user in Office 365 Hybrid Deployment So I came up with a work around to fix this:

Login to Domain Controller (assumes 2008 R2 version) if not you will need to use ADSIEDIT.MSC

Open Active Directory Users and Computers

Browse to the user account you want to have enabled for Online Archive

Open the Account properties and choose the Attribute Editor tab (if this does not show up select the View menu from ADUC and ensure Advanced Features in selected)

Locate the MSExchangeVersion Attribute

Replace the value with 44220983382016

Login to Hybrid Exchange 2010 SP2 server

Launch the Exchange Management Shell (EMS)

Run the following command, replacing USERNAME with the user’s login name

Enable-RemoteMailbox USERNAME-Archive

Force a DirSync

This has worked well for me and I have not run into any issues with manually setting the MSExchangeVersion Attribute.
