Estimated time to complete this lab: 15 minutes 2 Lab B: Configuring Management Agent Modes and Scheduling Management Agent Operation BETA MATERIALS FOR MICROSOFT CERTIFIED TRAINER PREPARATION PURPOSES ONLY Exercise 1 Creating a Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5 Management Agent In this exercise, you will create a management agent by using the predefined Exchange Server (LDAP-based) management agent type. You will configure the management agent for Association mode and then populate only the metadirectory connector namespace with the Exchange Server data. Scenario Your organization uses Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5 for their e-mail system. You want to bring the Microsoft Exchange e-mail data into the metadirectory to integrate it with the human resources data. Tasks Detailed Steps 1. Log on to Windows 2000, start MMS Compass, and then log on to your MMS server. a. Log on to Windows 2000 as Administrator with a password of password. b. Start MMS Compass, and then log on to your MMS server as mmsadmin@nwtraders.msft with a password of password. 2. Create an Exchange Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) management agent. a. In the control pane, click Bookmarks, click Management Agents, and then click Create New Management Agent. b. In the Create Management Agent dialog box, in the Name of the Management Agent box, type Exchange MA c. In the Type of the Management Agent box, click Microsoft Exchange (LDAP-based) Management Agent, and then click Create. 3. Configure the Exchange management agent to run in Association mode. a. In the Configure the Management Agent dialog box, on the Connected Directory Specifics tab, on the Mode and Namespace Management tab, under Management Agent Mode, click Association. 4. Configure the discovery parameters as follows: LDAP server address/name: server (where server is your computer name) LDAP TCP/IP port: 391 Context prefix: ou=serversite,o=domain (where server is your computer name and domain is your domain name). Login as: cn=Administrator,cn=do main Login password: password a. On the Connected Directory Specifics tab, on the Discovery tab, in the LDAP server address/name box, type server (where server is your computer name). b. In the LDAP TCP/IP port box, type 391 c. In the Context prefix box, type ou=serversite,o=domain d. In the Login as box, type cn=Administrator,cn=domain e. In the Login password box, type password f. Click Test your configuration, and then click OK to close the message indicating all the parameters are correct. g. Click OK to close the Configure the Management Agent dialog box. Lab B: Configuring Management Agent Modes and Scheduling Management Agent Operation 3 BETA MATERIALS FOR MICROSOFT CERTIFIED TRAINER PREPARATION PURPOSES ONLY Why is LDAP port 391 used when the MMS Server installation uses port 390? LDAP port 391 is used because a connection to Exchange Server 5.5 is being configured and Exchange Server 5.5 has been configured for that port. 5. Run the Exchange management agent to import the Microsoft Exchange objects into the connector namespace. Verify that connector namespace objects were created. a. In the directory pane, click Exchange MA, and then in the control pane, click Operate MA. b. In the Operate the Management Agent dialog box, on the Management Agent Logs tab, click Run the Management Agent. The Operator's Log displays the importing of the Exchange objects into the connector namespace. c. After the Operator's Log indicates that the process is complete, click OK to close the Operate the Management Agent dialog box. d. Expand Exchange MA, and then verify that connector namespace entries have been created. Was it necessary to run both the Discovery phase and the Update phase to populate the connector namespace with entries, considering that no metaverse namespace entries were altered? What role did the management agent mode have in this process? Yes, the Discovery phase was needed to extract the data from Exchange Server 5.5 into import files. The Update phase was needed to take the import files and create the connector namespace entries. Association mode prevented entries from being created in the metaverse namespace. 4 Lab B: Configuring Management Agent Modes and Scheduling Management Agent Operation BETA MATERIALS FOR MICROSOFT CERTIFIED TRAINER PREPARATION PURPOSES ONLY Exercise 2 Scheduling the Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5 Management Agent In this exercise, you will schedule the Exchange management agent to update the metadirectory once a week. Scenario Your organization uses Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5 for their e-mail system. This e-mail account information needs to be periodically updated in the metadirectory. To help expedite the update process, you need to automate this task. Tasks Detailed Steps 1. Schedule the Exchange MA to run every week starting in five minutes. a. In the directory pane of MMS Compass, ensure Exchange MA is selected, and then in the control pane, click Schedule. b. In the Schedule dialog box, in the Start box, type hh:mm (where hh:mm is five minutes after your computer's clock in a 24-hour format), and then click to check the box for today. c. In the Command box, type zscript -dn and check the Add DN checkbox, and then click OK. Wait five minutes before proceeding to the next task. 2. Verify that the Exchange MA ran according to its schedule. a. In the directory pane, click Exchange MA, and then in the control pane, click Properties. b. In the Properties dialog box, verify that an entry exists for running the management agent at the time you previously scheduled, and then click OK. 3. Close MMS Compass, and then log off of Windows 2000. a. Close MMS Compass, and then close any open windows. b. Log off of Windows 2000. . Lab B: Configuring Management Agent Modes and Scheduling Management Agent Operation Objectives After completing this lab, you will be. Configure the Management Agent dialog box.
