In order to relocate the ADAM database and logs on Edge you need edit the ConfigureAdam.PS1 to update the location of dsbutil.exe as shown below

Then for example run:-

configureAdam.PS1 –logpath:”E:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\TRansportRoles\Data\Adam –DataPath:”D:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\TRansportRoles\Data\Adam

This will relocate the logs and database to the locations specified

In Exchange 2007 SP1 the default database cache size is set to 128MB, to allow for better cache growth. The new guidance is to increase the DatabaseMaxCacheSize from 128MB to 512MB (on Hub Transport servers with more than 4GB of RAM)

This can be done editing the EdgeTransport.exe.config file as shown below:-

Whilst working for a customer they had a specific requirement to apply a disclaimer to all outbound mail e.g. not to apply disclaimers to mail sent to other users within the Exchange organisation. Their requirement also included to only apply the disclaimer if it had not already been applied (or where it contained the same text). So i created a powershell script to do this:-

Get-TransportRulePredicate SubjectOrBodyContains

$Action = get-TransportRuleAction ApplyDisclaimer

$Action.Text = “my test disclaimer”

Get-TransportRulePredicate SubjectOrBodyContains

$Exception = Get-TransportRulePredicate SubjectOrBodyContains

$Exception.Words = @("My test disclaimer”)

$Condition = Get-TransportRulePredicate SentToScope

$Condition.Scope = "NotInOrganization"

New-TransportRule –Name “My test” –Action @($Action) –Exception @($Exception) –Condition @($Condition)
