The automatic cleanup of old Exchange ActiveSync device partnerships
In 2012, I wrote about ActiveSync device partnerships some time ago to describe how partnerships are created and how they accumulate over time, which leads to the need to clean up partnerships belonging to old and obsolete devices, such as that HP iPAQ hw6515 that has long since been disconnected…

May was the month of the Microsoft Ignite conference in Chicago. I’ve already provided my impressions of that event in another post, so I won’t rehash the topic here. There’s no doubt a lot of content was delivered at Ignite (I am still listening to recorded sessions) and so it’s…

A recent debate on the Exchange 2013 (unofficial) Facebook group started off with the question “can I built my own failover criteria in a DAG?” and pointed to the TechNet page on Active Manager. The debate began with sheer denials, mostly on the basis that it didn’t seem to make…
