6.2 Getting Edge Subscription Details
In the Exchange Management Console, you can view Edge subscriptions
by expanding the Organization Configuration node, selecting the Hub
Transport node, and then clicking the Edge Subscriptions tab. Each Edge
subscription is listed by Edge Transport server name and associated
Active Directory site as shown in Figure 4.
As Example 5 shows, you can use the Get-EdgeSubscription
cmdlet to get information about Edge subscriptions as well. If you do
not provide an identity with this cmdlet, configuration information for
all Edge Subscriptions is returned.
Example 5. Get-EdgeSubscription cmdlet syntax and usage
Syntax
Get-EdgeSubscription -Identity EdgeTransportServerName
[-DomainController DCName]
Usage
Get-EdgeSubscription -Identity "EdgeSvr04"
6.3 Synchronizing Edge Subscriptions
During the configuration of an Edge subscription, you specified an
Active Directory site to associate with the subscription. Hub Transport
servers in this site run the EdgeSync service and are responsible for
synchronizing configuration data between Active Directory Domain
Services and AD LDS on the Edge Transport server. By default, the
EdgeSync service synchronizes configuration data hourly and recipient
data every four hours.
If you've just created a new subscription and synchronization has
occurred, you should verify that replication is taking place as
expected by completing the following steps:
-
On the Edge Transport server, start the Exchange Management Shell.
-
Verify that a Send connector was created to send Internet mail by typing the command get-sendconnector.
As shown in the following example and sample output, you should see an
Inbound connector and an Internet connector for EdgeSync:
get-sendconnector
Identity AddressSpaces Enabled
-------- ------------- -------
Primary Send Connector {SMTP:*.cpandl.com;1} True
SD1 Send Connector {SMTP:*.adatum.com;1} True
EdgeSync - Seattle-First-Site to Int {smtp:*;100} True
EdgeSync - Inbound to Seattle-First- {smtp:--;100} True
-
Verify that there is at least one entry for accepted domains by
typing get-accepteddomain as shown in the following example and sample
output:
get-accepteddomain
Name DomainName DomainType Default
---- ---------- ---------- -------
cpandl.com cpandl.com Authoritative True
If you suspect there is a problem with synchronization and you want
to start immediate synchronization of configuration data for all Edge
subscriptions, complete the following steps:
-
Start the Exchange Management Shell.
-
At the prompt, type the following command
start-edgesynchronization -Server ServerName
where ServerName is the name of the Hub Transport server on which you want to run the command, such as:
start-edgesynchronization -Server mailserver25
If you are running the command on the Hub Transport server, you can omit the –Server parameter.
