Theres no AD object to show the names of the public folder servers that contains the replicas of different public folder, as AD didnt have that information. You can only find the AD object (msExchOwningPFTreeBL) to show the names of the public folder servers that the public stores in them will make up the public folder hierarchy But, its quite close, usually the servers show in the msExchOwningPFTreeBL attribute are the ones that contains the replicas for public folder, we wont just add a public folder store into the public folder tree and not use it to store the data a. Start->Run->ADSIEdit.msc b. Expand Configuration->CN= Configuration,DC=DomainName,DC=Com->CN=Services->CN=Microsoft Exchange->CN=OrgName->CN=Exchange Administrative Groups->CN=AdministrativeGroupName->CN=Folder Hierarchies c. In the right-pane, double-click CN=Public Folders, in the jumped windows, double-click the msExchOwningPFTreeBL attribute Sample: CN=Public Folder Store (SERVER2),CN=First Storage Group,CN=InformationStore,CN=SERVER2,CN=Servers,CN=First Administrative Group,CN=Administrative Groups,CN=Company,CN=Microsoft Exchange,CN=Services,CN=Configuration,DC=lab,DC=com

Hi, Lots of thanks for your reply. Is there any way to change the properties of public mailstores(i.e, replication server name) & private mailstores (i.e, client settings->default public folder database). I have 3 Exchange 2007 sp1 servers(SERVER1,SERVER2,SERVER3). SERVER1 and SERVER2 contains private & public mailstores. SERVER3 with only private mailstores. SERVER1's public folders are replicated to SERVER2. Users of all 3 servers are able to access the public folder. If the SERVER1 goes down, users from SERVER3 are unable to access the public folders. If the 'default public folder database' for the SERVER3's private mailstore is changed(previously SERVER1) to SERVER2 then users can access the public folder. Is it possible to perform this task using MAPI, EDK, WebDAV,..... which is compatible with Exchange 2007 server SP1 I'm a beginner in Exchange2007. Any suggestions please.... Thanks

Multiple replicas of the same public folder shall provide the high availability of public folder to users, please check the replication and compare the data of the same public folder between server1 and server2 Managing Public Folders
