Phase 3: Replicating Exchange Server 5.5 Data
ADCCheck is the group of tools that you can run after you install Active Directory Connector. ADCCheck makes sure that user objects and non-user objects were replicated correctly between Exchange Server 5.5 and Active Directory.
ADCCheck runs the following tools:
• ADCUserCheck: The Active Directory Connector User Check tool (ADCUserCheck) identifies the locations of user accounts and of mailboxes, and then uses this information to recommend appropriate connection agreements. ADCUserCheck also uses the search process in the Active Directory Connector (ADC) to compare user objects in the Exchange Server 5.5 directory to objects in the Active Directory global catalog. It then reports any users who exist in the Exchange Server 5.5 directory who are missing from Active Directory. Microsoft recommends that you run the ADCUserCheck tool to obtain a list of recommended connection agreements before you install the ADC. Run the ADCUserCheck tool again after you install the ADC to make sure that you have correct functionality.
• ADCObjectCheck: The ADCObjectCheck tool makes sure that non-user non-configuration objects in the Exchange Server 5.5 directory correctly replicated to Active Directory. It confirms consistency of public folders, of distribution lists, and of contact objects between the Exchange Server 5.5 directory and Active Directory. If a public folder is not replicated to Active Directory, the ADCObjectCheck tool recommends a public folder connection agreement. The ADCObjectCheck tool also recommends custom recipient connection agreements and distribution list connection agreements. Microsoft recommends that you run the ADCObjectCheck tool after you install Active Directory Connector.
• ADUserScan: The ADUserScan tool verifies that mail-enabled objects in Active Directory are replicated to the Exchange Server 5.5 directory. If objects have not replicated from Active Directory to the Exchange Server 5.5 directory, the ADUserScan tool recommends connection agreements. To run ADUserScan, your account must have domain administrator permissions and rights to write to Active Directory, and you must have Exchange Server 5.5 administrator permissions and rights to view objects in the Exchange directory.
