Event 16022 Exchange Transport

Hi All,

Every 6 hours this event will fire:

- <Event xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/win/2004/08/events/event">

- <System>

<Provider Name="MSExchangeTransport" />

<EventID Qualifiers="16388">16022</EventID>

<Level>4</Level>

<Task>16</Task>

<Keywords>0x80000000000000</Keywords>

<TimeCreated SystemTime="2010-05-11T10:12:41.000000000Z" />

<EventRecordID>22117</EventRecordID>

<Channel>Application</Channel>

<Computer>MIDAS-MX.lob.local</Computer>

<Security />

</System>

<EventData />

</Event>

 

with the description "A configuration update has successfully completed." Only trouble is when it does run we can no longer recieve emails from the outside world and the only fix is to restart the pop3 service.

We have Exchange 2007 installed on Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise 64bit.

I've had no luck in finding an answer to this problem and any help would be appreciated.

Many thanks.

Thanks for your reply; according to the following site:

http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb232170(EXCHG.80).aspx (look in the Exchange 2007 and Windows Server 2008 section)

and the site you specified MS Exchange 2007 SP1 can be installed on Windows Server 2008 it's the RTM version which cannot be installed.

Thanks anyway.
strike that, it does actually cannot install on Windows 2008 R2...bummer. :(

Thanks for the heads up, I should say you are probably right then.

Thankyou Busbar, nice to know I can still be humbled :)

Because I'm a giving kind of guy; if you are looking for a temporary work-around until you have your new swanky win 2003 R2 64bit Enterprise server up and running then read on....

This issue occurs when the MSExchange transport service updates it's configuration, (I'll probably be corrected for this later). It is event id 16022 and 16002 which cause it. You can set up a scheduled task which will be triggered by this event in task scheduler, add the following to a batch file and have the task execute it when either of these two events are triggered:

echo off
FOR %%A IN (%Date%) DO SET Today=%%A
SET Now=%Time%
ECHO STOPPING - %Today% : %Now%

net stop MSExchangePop3

FOR %%A IN (%Date%) DO SET Today=%%A
SET Now=%Time%
ECHO STARTING- %Today% : %Now%

net start MSExchangePop3
echo on

Add a parameter >> <mylogfile>> to the task and run as administrator.

Make sure the task does not expire and run immediately once created. You can optionally create an additional 'catch-all' task to run every hour or so just in case.

Hope that helps.

Steve.
