Setting General Configuration

The Configuration node provides access to general configuration, such as creating custom server roles for Exchange servers.

Through the Configuration node, you can perform configuration activities such as:

•
Creating server roles that can be used to identify and group Exchange servers in MessageStats reports. See Creating Server Roles for Exchange .
To access the general configuration property tabs
1
Select the Configuration node in the treeview.
2
Select the tab you want in the right pane.

Creating Server Roles for Exchange

In MessageStats, server roles that reflect the standard built-in Exchange server roles are already defined and available for use.

MessageStats retrieves the server roles for a server from Active Directory, assigns a matching built-in server role value in MessageStats, and identifies the role as “discovered” in the server properties. You cannot change a server role value for a discovered server role.

You can create additional custom server roles to apply to servers using the Custom Server Roles tab.

To add a custom server role
1
Click Add and enter a descriptive server role.
2
Click OK.
You cannot modify or delete pre-defined server roles. You can modify or delete roles that are identified as custom roles.

You assign server roles to a server through the properties tabs for an individual Exchange server. For more information see Assigning a Server Role for Reports .

Introducing Exchange Organization Properties

For MessageStats to perform optimally for your implementation, ensure that the values in the following properties dialog boxes are accurate:

•
Setting General Exchange Properties
You can access a general property tab from the Exchange Organizations node which is used for all Exchange organizations.
For example, you can select a tracking log archive location for the MessageStats archiving feature. For information see Selecting a Tracking Log Archive Location .
•
Setting Properties for a Specific Exchange Organization
By selecting a specific Exchange organization you can access properties tabs that allow you to configure properties that apply to the selected organization.
For example, you can set up audits for mailboxes, email subjects, and domains. You can identify ranges of IP addresses that should be considered as internal for the Exchange organization. You can specify additional internal SMTP namespaces for your organization. You can define delivery time thresholds at the Exchange organization level or select specific Exchange servers for organization gathering tasks.
