Changes in Clients and Mobiles

  2. No offline access to Archive Mailbox
  3. Outlook 2013 can control the size of the OST file
  4. Outlook 2013 not longer connects to Server using FQDN
  5. Outlook uses Autodiscover to create a new connection point comprised of mailbox GUID, @ symbol, and the domain portion of the user’s primary SMTP address.
 Optimized for touch devices.
  1. Apps in Outlook Web App.
  2. Apps for Outlook aren’t dependent on the version of Exchange Server that you’re using.

  4. Third-party developers can create additional apps for Outlook and offer them at Office.com.
  5. Contacts a.k.a People

Changes in Sharing and collaboration

 Site mailboxes

Site mailboxes require Exchange 2013 and SharePoint Server 2013 integration and configuration.

Managed availability

 In this monitoring and recovery-oriented features are tightly integrated to help prevent failures
  1. Proactively restore services
  2. Initiate server failovers automatically
  3. Alert administrators to take action.
 What is New?
  1. The Managed Store is the name of the newly rewritten Information Store processes in Exchange 2013.
  2. Support for multiple databases per disk
  3. Automatic reseed
  4. Automatic recovery from storage failures
  5. Lagged copy enhancements
  6. Lagged copies can invoke auto replay feature when a low disk space threshold has been reached
  7. Single copy alert enhancements
  8. Is no longer a separate scheduled script, now a part of Managed availability
  9. DAG network auto-configuration
 
What is Exchange workload management?
  1. Monitor the health of system resources
  2. Control how resources are consumed by individual users
  
  • First we need to create workload management policy
  • New-WorkloadManagementPolicy
  • Then create a new workload policy and assign it to the above new workload management policy
  • New-WorkloadPolicy
  • Apply the custom workload management policy to a specific server
  • Set-ExchangeServer -WorkloadManagementPolicy Workload_Management_Policy_Name -Server ServerName
  
  • Change workload management policy settings for all servers in your organization
  • create a new workload policy and assign it to GlobalOverwrittenWorkloadManagementPolicy
