Hi,

I have Exchange 2003 running on veritas cluster.
When i try to run the exchange management pack configuration vizard, it
through's the 9986 event not registred error, I cannot even see the virtual
server name in the discovered list.

I got a alter saying that
Alert description: Computer verification failure for Machine Name:
IND-MUM-EXC-001.india.africa.com is because the provided name is not same as
NetBios name

This name is vitrual Exchange name

Please help

Regards
Narendra

The Exchange 2003 MP is supported for Microsoft Windows Clusters, but may
not function for other implementations of clusters like Veritas.
My guess is the Veritas cluster isn't exposing the virtual server name as a
Windows Cluster does, but rather is masquerading as the IP address of the
Virtual Server.
Meaning the Windows Server does not actually answer to the Virtual Machine's
netbios name.

To do the equivalent of the 9986 event you can run the java script below,
but I have a feeling the problem is the Management Pack Configuration Wizard
does not understand what a Veritas cluster is.

PublishExMPData:
{
try {
var SUCCESS = 0;
var WshNetwork = new ActiveXObject("WScript.Network");
var strServerName = WshNetwork.ComputerName;
var PubKeyPublisherObjName;
PubKeyPublisherObjName = "EMPKP.PubKeyPublisher";
try {
var objKP = new ActiveXObject(PubKeyPublisherObjName);
}catch(err){
WScript.Echo("Failed to create the object
EMPKP.PubKeyPublisher");
break PublishExMPData;
}
var errID;
errID = objKP.Publish();
if (errID != SUCCESS)
var errorMessage = "Failed to publish Exchange Management Pack
data required for performing MAPI logon on Exchange server:\"" +
strServerName + ".\nError information:" + errID;
WScript.Echo(errorMessage);
else
WScript.Echo("Successfully Published Exchange keys, equivalent
of a 9986"):
}catch(err){
var errorMessage2 = "Failed to publish Exchange Management Pack data
required for performing MAPI logon on Exchange server:\"" + strServerName +
".\nError information:" +err.number;
wScript.Echo(errorMessage2);
}
}
