Hi,
I'm trying to clean up and organize a AD/Exchange environment that I inherited.
I've migrated from Exchange 2007 to 2010 and decomissioned the 2007 servers.
Today I wanted to get AD cleaned up a bit so I began to create sites/subnets and move our remote office DC's into appropriate sites.
I began by changing "Default-First-Site-Name" to something more appropriate like "HEADOFFICE".
Ten minutes after I did this, exchange stopped working and the error:
Process MSEXCHANGEADTOPOLOGY (PID=1432). The site monitor API was unable to verify the site name for this Exchange computer - Call=DsGetSiteNameW Error code=800703e5. Make sure that Exchange server is correctly registered on the DNS server.
appeared in the event log.
Along with many of these:
Watson report about to be sent for process id: 10976, with parameters: E12, c-RTL-AMD64, 14.01.0218.015, edgetransport, M.E.Data.Storage, M.E.D.S.ExchangePrincipal.get_ServerFullyQualifiedDomainName, System.InvalidOperationException, 656b, 14.01.0218.012.
ErrorReportingEnabled: False
Process MSEXCHANGEADTOPOLOGY (PID=1408). When updating security for a remote procedure call (RPC) access for the Microsoft Exchange Active Directory Topology service, Exchange could not retrieve the security descriptor for Exchange server object MJEXCHANGE00
- Error code=8007077f.
The Microsoft Exchange Active Directory Topology service will continue starting with limited permissions.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hi,
Has the sitename been hardcoded in the registry on the Exchange Server?
See:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2025528

That is something that I have had to do at some customers, because of the same errors as you see.Martina Miskovic

Try restarting the System Attendant service.
