Secondary mailboxes

When Outlook 2016 released, the plan was to only support FAST search on your primary mailbox. However, starting in the Fall of 2017, you should see that any Exchange email account added through File | Account Settings (also known as MultiEx or multiple Exchange accounts) now fully supports FAST search.

If you are limited to using an older build of Outlook 2016 and search in a MultiEx mailbox, the FAST query may be submitted in the context of the logged on user (you). This causes the search results to be pulled from your own mailbox, not the secondary mailbox that currently has the focus in your Outlook client. If you are unable to upgrade your Outlook 2016 client to the November 2017 Monthly Channel Build, you can temporarily work around this limitation by using one of the following options:

• Change the search scope to All Outlook Items, Subfolders, or All Mailboxes
• Disable Outlook 2016’s use of FAST search via policy or local user registry setting (see the next section)

Note Other types of secondary stores, such as those added via Open these additional mailboxes or those that are automatically configured via AutoMapping, are still limited to WDS.

HOWEVER

I’ve found users report searching still sucks in their shared and/or secconday mbxs. So per document set the below DWORD key to 1 if a user reports this – though I’m still waiting to hear if there are negative connotations to this change

However one result is not a fair estimate of rate of change , and I don’t have a Veeam One license so I decided to Average Stuff

You can run on One VM or all the VM’s in a Backup Job

#Get Backup Job and VM

#$getOne = $vbrtasksessions | ? {$_.JobName -eq "%Veeam Backup or Backup Copy Name%" -and $_.Name -eq "%Name of Server%"}

Add the new Server Computer Account to the Same AD groups as the existing Servers

On your Terminal server Gateway Server , Add the new Session Host server in Server Manager

Once added  , right-click on it and click Add Roles and Features

Choose existing RD Connection Broker

My Session Host was greyed out , so I was then able to Add the Session Host to the Collection via below

There are a couple of key active known issue about HDX Optimization failing in certain situations, the above included, as of May 2020.

https://support.citrix.com/article/CTX253754

• In Windows Server (any version, with any VDA 1906.2 or higher), session disconnect/reconnect might result in Teams failing to load in optimized mode (“Citrix HDX Not Connected” in About/Version). Citrix and Microsoft are aware of this issue and are rolling out the fix, deployed already in Ring 3. This will not require any component upgrade (Teams, VDA or Workspace app) and is rolled out via feature flags (sign out/sign in required). In some scenarios, attempting to make a call will trigger Teams to try to reconnect to the Citrix services and optimization will succeed. [RFWIN-15624] [Microsoft Teams Bug ID: 873138]
• If Teams is configured to Auto-start, the issue in the first [above] bullet might also manifest. We recommend disabling auto-start by deleting the Teams regkeys in HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run, HKLM\Software\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run and HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
  
  
• Endpoints with high-end sound cards (Studio quality) might fail to load in optimized mode. See section #2.1 below. Clicking on Teams/Settings/Devices will show “None”. Citrix is aware of this issue and working on a fix. [RFWIN-17892]

It does go on to say “that, generally, fully quitting Teams (Systray icon / right click / quit) and restarting it clears all the components involved and can fix whatever issue you were experiencing.”

Recently taken on a new environment and needed to check support for existing keys and move them to an account we control

The below you can enter the keys to find out if they are in current support

https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/2144006?lang=en_US&queryTerm=How+to+find+PAC

https://www.vmware.com/support/tracksn.portal?vmware=trackSN

To move them into your account you will need to raise Vmware support case , and they can give you the email address of the current user to contact to delegate access

FYI – https://support.citrix.com/article/CTX253754

User called to say Audio/Video devices were failing to pass through to MS Teams. Under Settings > Devices listed “None” across the board:

Checked the local workstation and found the HDXTeams.exe was not running (should start automatically when Teams in Citrix launches)

Logs are here: %userprofile%\AppData\Local\Temp\HDXTeams

 

Refer to : https://discussions.citrix.com/topic/407820-ms-teams-not-pulling-through-audio-devices/page/2/

Solution: I had to disable built-in microphone and speakers – one or both of these were the problem:

A SIEM Alert noticed lots of traffic transferring from a computer to IP’s in this range 52.85.43.0/24 ( amazon cloudfront) 

Tracing down the app on the computer using Netstat showed this was Chrome.exe

Tracing down the task manager inside of Chrome showed it was this process

Utility: Network Service Looks to be one of the process’ the chrome browser sends and receives network traffic through , But I can’t tell you exactly what , but it is needed !

• Install a new NPS Server ( cannot be existing as MFA will take over existing requests such as Wifi! ) 
• Installed Azure AD NPS Plugin and Enroll in Azure AD
• Add a Radius Client to the NPS server of the IP ( VIP ) of the Netscaler 
• Add the Radius server in Authentication – Set Timeout to 10Seconds , set Password to MsChapv2 Set NASID to MFA
