While I am installing Exchange 2007 SP1 SCC, I got following series of error

Clustered Mailbox Server
Error:
The computer account EVS1 was created on the domain controller \\dc1.lab.com , but has not replicated to the desired domain controller (dc02.lab.com) after waiting approximately 60 seconds. Please wait for the account to replicate and re-run setup /newcms.

Clustered Mailbox Server: DEVEVS1
Physical Server: DEVEXND1
Exchange Information Store Instance (DEVEVS1): Terminate process called for MSExchangeIS (ProcessId 2528).

Clustered Mailbox Server: DEVEVS1
Physical Server: DEVEXND1

Failed to bring the resource Exchange Information Store Instance (DEVEVS1) online.
Exchange Information Store Instance (DEVEVS1): The RPC call to the service to bring the cluster resource online failed.

Exchange Server component Clustered Mailbox Server failed.
Error: Error:
Clustered mailbox server 'DEVEVS1' is not in an started (online) state (Failed). The cluster resource 'Exchange Information Store Instance (DEVEVS1)' is in state (Failed).

Solution: I forced replication, I rerun “setup.com /newcms /cmsname:EVS1 /cmsipaddress:192.168.0.50” , but still run into the same error message and my Information Store would not come online. I end up uninstalling the node, which remove the EVS configuration on MS Cluster. I reinstalled run the Exchange setup and it went fine since the object was replicated.

Error on BES server:
MAPIMailbox::CreateSearchFolder - Open folder failed (0x80070005) failed

Solution:

In my case, BES admin account could not open the folder on Exchange 2007 Server.
make sure you run the command-let below. Replace besadmin with domain\besadmin

Get-mailboxserver | add-adpermission –user “BESAdmi –accessrights ExtendedRight–extendedrights Send-As, Receive-As, ms-Exch-Store-Admin

I discoverd this error message in Application Log :

    Event Type:        Error
    Event Source:    MSExchangeTransport
    Event Category:                SmtpSend
    Event ID:              2017
    Date:                     01/18/2008
    Time:                     5:01:22 PM
    User:                     N/A
    Computer:          EX02
    Description:
    Outbound authentication failed with error TargetUnknown for Send connector Intra-Organization SMTP Send Connector. The authentication mechanism is ExchangeAuth. The target is SMTPSVC/ex02.testlab.lab



Solution:
I reset the SPN after consulting with Microsoft KB914137

setspn -a SMTPSVC/ex02.testlab.lab EX02

Today, When i try to install Exchange 2007 it asks"Please specify the name for this exchange". In this case, I am adding Exchange 2007 to existing Exchange 2003 environment so I know something is wrong here.

This error may occur in following cases.

- When domain controller is not Windows 2003 SP1 or later.

- Logged on with a local account, not domain account.

It seems that Exchange Management Console SP1 cannot manage non SP1 Exchange 2007 Clusters.

 
You can use Exchange Management Shell non-SP1 to failover the cluster by using cmd-let below

Move-clusteredmailboxserver –identity SccCluster –movecomment test –targetmachine sccnode2
