GroupChat Server is not syncing in changes to Chat Room membership, via Distribution List

  • 项目

Symptom:

GroupChat Server is not syncing in changes to Chat Room membership, via Distribution List

Cause:

This issue could happen, if the changes to the Distribution list are not completely synced in from the DC. In certain scenarios, we have a number of ports on the GroupChat Server in TIME_WAIT state when talking to the GC.

The following log entry in ChannelServer log, may be used to determine such a state:

276799 Microsoft.Rtc.Chat.MgcCommon.Exceptions.MgcActiveDirectoryException: Error accessing active directory. ---> System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x8007203A): The server is not operational.

Multiple instances of:

262061 DEBUG |20100917-14:04:53.126| 14: |ActiveDirectoryConne.ConnectToAD | connecting to AD host <… >

Solution\Workaround:

Considering lowering the value of TcpTimedWaitDelay. The default is fairly high.

Consider increasing the number of available ports.

Verification:

After making the above changes (which do require a reboot) monitor the ChannelServer logs for instances of the traces mentioned in the Cause Section.

    I was asked if this registry needs to be applied to GroupChat Server ? the answer is YES. What value do I set for the above registry keys ? It depends on the customer scenario, and their AD setup which will determine, how many ports they are currently using and are in TIME_WAIT state. You can begin by setting the values as follows and monitor the behavior. There are no magic numbers that I can come up with to work for all customers. The value of TcpTimedWaitDelay lowered to 30s. Number of available ports increased to 10000. This is a temporary workaround. The fix is to apply the next Cumulative update for Group Chat Server, when it is available through KB 2437381 later.
