Hi Experts, We were doing mailbox moving / replication from an existing one to a new one, when we got FAILED result under Copy Status on all Storage groups. We have re-installed CCR (cluster continuous replication) and after few days of monitoring, it seemed to be ok. After CCR re-installation, the defaukt Global Address List and Frist Administrative group both disappeared from their original locations. We'd like to know what exactly is needed to be done here. Do we need to recreate default GAL? Please advise. Thansk so much.

Machine is running on -Windows Server 2003 SP2 64-bit -Miscrosoft Exchange 2007 SP1

Hi, I would like to explain that by default, the Exchange 2007 server located in the Exchange Administrative Group (FYDIBOHF23SPDLT). If it is a clean install Exchange 2007, there is no First Administrative Group. Regarding the Default Global Address List, I suggest that you use Adsiedit to check whether the Default Global Address List can be located through: CN=Default Global Address List,CN=All Global Address Lists,CN=Address Lists Container,CN=organization,CN=Microsoft Exchange,CN=Services,CN=Configuration,DC=domain,DC=com If the Default Global Address List cannot be located, you can create it manually by running command: New-GlobalAddressList http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb123785(EXCHG.80).aspx Then update it: Update-GlobalAddressList http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa998806(EXCHG.80).aspx Mike
