Lync 2013 Certificate Count

0
0

Hello, I'm new to Lync. 

Can someone help me in determining how many certificates I need for the following:

Lync 2013 Standard in Production Site A and DR Site A with pools paired

Lync 2013 Standard in Production Site B and DR Site B with pools paired

Can I get away with a single certificate and include all the SAN names, or do I need a certificate per pool pair or certificate per site?

Thanks.

reinstall Lync internal webservices ?

0
0

Hello,

I have deployed Lync 2013, successfully with internal/external access for Office Lync client and web meet/dialin.

After that I have installed Office Web Apps Server on the same front end server, once installed 2 websites dedicated for WAC were created with the ports 80/443, and then blocked the internal services (installed by default on 80/443 too)

I updated the topology and published it, then moved to the deployment to "Setup or remove Lync Server Components", here the installation crashed with "execution failed: not found: Website 34577", this website ID is the "Lync Server Internal Web Site". Then when I go back to IIS, the website Internal disappeared as well as the Application Pools releated to it.

Since this, I'm not able to do anything. None of the following actions were successful:

- open and published the topology

- WAC was uninstalled (port 80/433 not bound to any process)

- change port numbers in topology and republication

- disabling all front end features, publication, redeployment (crash on: Not found website 34577)

- manually creating the website with the same WebSiteID 34577, the deployment crash then at the next step were /Abs virtual folder is not found, I tried to create the same as in the External webservice site, but without success

I can't find anywhere on the web how to recreate the internal webservices, and none of the tutorials or blogs talk about which step create them, or how to rebuild them.

Please help :-))

Thankxxx

Lync Policy - Boolean parameters default value if empty

0
0

Hi,

There are a number of Optional System.Boolean parameters in Lync 2013 policies (i.e. the ClientPolicy), some of them have no default value, and it is not clear what would be behaviour if these parameters are not set.

For example the parameter "DisableEmailComparisonCheck" in ClientPolicy, what would be the result if this is not set in the policy ?

Thanks for your help,

We have Lync 2013 infra with three sites. Each site is having one FE & and one Edge pool with 5 and 3 servers respectively

Recently, primary and secondary DNS servers were crashed for all lync servers in one of the lync site.

But we did not observe any kind of outage for Lync service.

Could you please help me to understand the reason for the same

Lync Server 2013 Edge - Unknown error (0x80131500) TlsFailureException

0
0

I am setting up Lync Server for the first time, and currently have everything working ok on the local LAN and even have it integrated successfully with Exchange. However, I am having massive amounts of trouble setting up a Lync Edge server to allow external access.

I have a wildcard certificate applied to the external interface and a certificate issued from my local CA for the internal interface, and in the Lync Control Panel on the FE server, i have a green check next to Replication, so I know that the FE and Edge are talking to each other successfully.

However, when testing the Edge server for external connectivity using exRCA, I get the following error:

"Couldn't sign in. Error: Error Message: Unknown error (0x80131500).
Error Type: TlsFailureException."


I have looked all over the TechNet forums and the web for a possible solution, but I am coming up with none.

Any idea what could be causing this? Thanks in advance for any help,

Matthew


Windows Fabric Host Service and RtcSvc not starting on Lync 2013 SBA

0
0

Hey guys,

we recently deployed a Lync Server 2013 SBA (with Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1) and noticed that the Front End Service (RtcSvc) on the SBA isn't starting.

Additionally, the Windows Fabric Host Service is not running on the SBA. When we manually start the Windows Fabric Host Service, it is running until we start the Front End Service on the SBA. As soon as we start the Front End Service, the Windows Fabric Host Service stopps. All other services (Windows and Lync) are running as expected.

The whole environment consists of a Lync Server 2013 Enterprise Edition Front End Pool with 2 FEs, a Persistent Chat Pool with 2 Persistent Chat server and an Edge Server Pool with 2 Edge server (all server run on Windows Server 2012 with latest updates installed).

Here are the entries from the Event Log of the SBA:

Front End Service

The Lync Server Front-End service terminated with service-specific error %%-1008193491.

Failed starting a worker process.

Process: 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft Lync Server 2013\Server\Core\RtcHost.exe'  Exit Code: C3E8302D!_HRX! (The worker process failed to initialize itself in the maximum allowable time.!_HRM!).

Cause: This could happen due to low resource conditions or insufficient privileges.

Resolution:

Try restarting the server. If the problem persists contact Product Support Services.

We already checked or did the following:

  • DNS/Firewall
  • Reset of the SBA and Re-install (also deleted the SBA from the Topology first)
  • Reset of the Fabric Pool
  • Start and stop services manually
  • Re-installed the local databases
  • installed all Windows Updates
  • installed Lync Server 2013 CU2
  • Certificates
  • Permissions/Groups in AD
  • Enable-CsTopology

Any ideas how we can solve the issue?

Best regards,

Mathias

E911 CsLisSubnet and subnet mask

0

When adding a CsLisSubnet how do you specify the subnet mask?  It appears only an IP is given, how does it know how much of the network provided to use?  For example in the case of 10.0.1.0/23 would I add both 10.0.1.0 and 10.0.2.0?  What about something smaller than a /24?

Lync 2013 AVMCU pool

0
0

Hello,

Apologies if this has been asked before, but I am wondering about AVMCU deployment for Lync 2013 (Enterprise edition). In particular, is this configurable to the same level as Lync 2010? I have access to Lync 2010 Enterprise edition and I am able to configure AVMCUs for each of my avpools.

Is there an equivalent for Lync 2013? Where is this setting?  During the install I don't remember installing/configuring any dedicated AVMCU servers for Lync 2013.  Any more info would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Simon

Multi Site Edge Deployment

0
0

Has anyone found an article or any detailed information on how to setup multisite Lync 2013 Edge servers?  We have an existing site and plan to add a second site with a single standard edition server and edge (and potentially proxy?) but I am having a hard time finding any real details on this configuration.  technet has a reference architecture for mutiple sites but does not really go into any detail with regards to hostnames, discovery, edge to edge proxying etc.

Did anything change from 2010 on this subject?

Lync QOE Details

0
0

Is there a reference that explains how QOE data is measured, bundled and delivered for use in Call Quality Reports?

We have an issue where some calls show EXTREMELY high Round Trip Time (some averaging in the 5,000ms range, or 5 seconds).  When we talk to the people on the call they indicate that the call was fine, the only issue was the Lync client reporting poor call quality despite both parties agreeing that the call was good.

We are QOSing audio traffic (via static port ranges) and are not seeing any issue with actual bandwith for audio.  We are hoping to learn how Lync calculates and transports this data in hopes that it will help us understand why the reports are (sometimes) misrepresenting call quality.  These report anomalies make it very tough for our team to spot actual issues.

I am hoping to find an answer without calling PSS, it seems every time we call for complex issues such as these we blow through many very expensive and limited (to us) support hours for mediocre at best service.


Lync 2013 Visual Voicemail

i am having an issue with lync 2013 visual voicemails not showing within the lync client. running exchange 2010 with UM and enterprise voice lync users. when a voicemail is left for a user the lync icon in the system tray will flash and indicate that you have a new voicemail, however it does not show within the lync client.

I am able to ctrl+right click on the lync icon in the system tray to check the config information. the "EWS Information" is showing as "EWS Status OK". looking for any insight that might help solve this issue.

Thanks.

We have already deployed 5 Frontend Server (1 Standard Server and 1 Pool with 4 FE Servers) and one Edge Server some Days ago. Now we are trying to Setup another Lync 2013 Edge Server and get stucked.

When we try to Import the Configuration File, which we had exported from a Frontend Server (export-Csconfiguration..) we get the following error:

      Cannot open database "xds" requested by the loging

We can publish the topology on the Frontend Server without Errors.
We have already deinstalled all the lync and SQL componentes and tried again  - no success

Best regards

Unable to deploy database in mirror

Hello,

I'm trying to install mirror database with Lync but it's not working. I used : 

Install-CsMirrorDatabase -ConfiguredDatabases -FileShare \\sqlf13-01\export -SqlServerFqdn LYNCSQL13-01 - DropExistingDatabasesOnMirror -Verbose

Error message :

Install-CsMirrorDatabase : Command execution failed: The cmdlet is unable to discover SQL Server account information
for server instance. Make sure that WMI provider is running and the SQL Server service instance
exists and is not running under a local machine account or local service account.


LYNCSQL13-01 is a SQL Alias (wich works good).

My SQL Service account is a domain user member (i have try with domain admin) and have full permission on share. I have restarted WMI service twice and servers too...

Thanks


Cordialement,
