Q. How does the OAB distribution happens in Exchange 2007?Ans. The Exchange System
Attendant service is responsible for the generation of oab. This service is available only on a
server that has the mailbox role installed. The SA invokes a dll file called oabgen.dll.
The oab files are stored in C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\ExchangeOAB. This
folder is shared so that it can be replicated to the CAS server for web distribution.
The oab generation server opens the oab folders and updates the file. The oabgen.dll file is
responsible for connecting to the public folder.
CAS server runs a service named Microsoft Exchange File Distribution Service which copies the
oab files from the mailbox server (ExchangeOAB folder) to the web distribution point in the
CAS server.
The web distribution folder is a folder on CAS Server where the copied oab files are placed. The
default location is C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\ClientAccess\OAB.
The web distribution point is updated once in 8 hours. If you want to force an oab update, restart
the Exchange File Distribution Service.
Q. Is it recommended to install CAS server in perimeter network? Why?
Ans. No. Security and availability of AD attributes are two main reasons.
Q. How is the performance of Exchange 2007 better than Exchange 2003?
Ans. In Exchange 2003, the database read to write ratio was typically 2:1 or 66 percent reads.
With Exchange 2007, the larger database cache decreases the number of reads to the database on
disk causing the reads to shrink as a percentage of total I/O.
In Exchange 2003, a transaction log for a storage group requires roughly 10 percent as many
I/Os as the databases in the storage group. For example, if the database LUN is using 1000 I/Os,
the log LUN would use approximately 100 I/Os. With the reduction in database reads in
Exchange 2007, combined with the smaller log file size and the ability to have more storage
groups, the log-to-database write ratio is roughly 1:2. For example, if the database LUN is
consuming 500 write I/Os, the log LUN will consume approximately 250 write I/Os.
