Private Mailboxes for Exchange 2007

I have installed NME 5.1 on exhcnage 2007 cluster and could not see any mailboxes under Private Mailboxes. The mailboxes are visible under IS but not Private mailboxes.

What is it that they are not there? Is there anything special about mailboxes that NW does not recognize them under PM but does recognize them under IS?

Is it possible that you have some sort of permission issue? 2007 is world per self, especially with cluster setup they have now. I guess NMM does good job there, but I haven't tried it yet (except being on workshop).

I belive the same and have the permissions granted and MAPI CDO installed. I earlier did the smae at the same customer as POC and it worked fine. What is NMM?

NMM stands for NetWorker Module for MS Application. It is former VSS client, but now optimized for EXCH 2007 and few additional applications.

I guess the best thing is to check what MS says - what permissions are required for that (if they would tell anything given they stand on what they think of that anyway).

Yes, it is a permissions issue but we are still not able to get this completely. If the account has full access permissions, it works fine but if it only has read-as & write-as permissions, it gives errors. The admin guide suggests only read-as, write-as permissions for Exchange 2007.

OK but the problem here is that the customer loves to believe what NW says. as per them, it is NW enahncement that it would work with less permissions.

When you say:

What do you mean by full access permissions? Can you list them?

A user that has full access to all mailboxes and has all exchnage permissions as good as Exchange Administrator himself.

I did this and was able to get NMM working:

From exchange powershell on the exchange server run the following command:

get-mailboxserver | get-ADpermission -user | Format-List

     -If "Send-As" and "Receive-As" are set to "Deny=True" then proceed with this command

get-ExchangeServer | add-ADpermission -user -extendedrights Receive-As,Send-As

Also make sure that the user account is also a member of the "Exchange Organization Administrators" group in active directory

If you are backing up public folders, do this as well:

Add-PublicFolderPermission -Identity -user -accessRights CreateItems,ReadItems,CreateSubfolders

Try that and see if it works. It worked for our shop, maybe it'll work for yours.
