Title
CMN Directory Connector: How to synchronise Mail-In Database resources from Domino to Exchange. -
Description
The Coexistence Manager for Notes (CMN) Directory Connector is configured to synchronise resources from Domino to Exchange. Resources like rooms are exported fine, however, Mail-In Databases are not exported. No errors are logged.
-
Cause
Unlike other Domino resources, Mail-In Databases might not have the Resource flag set in the document properties. By default, the CMN Directory Connector is using an LDAP filter that specifically filters against this flag which is why all databases without this flag are disregarded:
(& (ResourceFlag=1)(objectclass=dominoServerMailInDatabase) ~person2-search~ ~reqattribs~)
-
Resolution
The LDAP filter can to be modified so that CMN is not filtering against the Resource flag. In order to do this, the following steps need to be performed:
· Go to the 'C:\Program Files\Quest Software\Quest Coexistence Manager for Notes\Directory Connector\Tools\Global\sourcedef\custom' folder.
· Backup the file 'quest-resources-notes.txt'.
· Edit the file 'quest-resources-notes.txt'.
· Find the term '(ResourceFlag=1)' and remove it. The query in question should now read: person2-search=(& (objectclass=dominoServerMailInDatabase) ~person2-search~ ~reqattribs~)
· Save the file.
· Restart the 'Quest Coexistence Manager for Notes Directory Connector' service.
· Run the connector in question.
Please note: In order to synchronise resources successfully, the source OU needs to be set to '<root>'.
