XFOR: How to Use a Resync.glb with an Exchange Requestor |
The information in this article applies to:
-
Microsoft Exchange Server, versions 4.0, 5.0, 5.5
SUMMARY
In Microsoft Mail directory synchronization, the Import utility can be used
to create a Resync.glb file. This file can then be used to resynchronize
the requestor with the dir-sync server (DSS) by replacing the sync numbers
and the address lists on the Microsoft Mail Requestor Postoffice with the
copy the DSS maintains.
You can use this file with an Exchange Requestor by placing it in the
Dxadata directory and stopping and starting the Directory Synchronization
service. This will populate the Exchange import containers with the
Microsoft Mail addresses and resynchronize the Requestor Sync numbers.
MORE INFORMATION
Resync.glb can be created in the Maildata\glb subdirectory on the Microsoft
Mail dir sync server postoffice by carrying out:
Import -s admin -p[password] -d[drive]
Resync.glb is typically used to troubleshoot the dir-sync process. It
contains both the sync numbers (as the DSS sees them), and the
actual addresses stored by the DSS.
NOTE: After creating Resync.glb with the import utility, this file must be
removed from the Maildata\glb directory on the DSS. If you do not remove
this file, it may cause problems with the Global Address List of the DSS.
