OAL Generator Event ID 9341

Running Windows 2003 Enterprise with Exchange 2003 SP2. Receiving the following in event viewer:

Source: MSEExchangeSA

Category: OAL Generator

Event ID: 9341

The parent Legacy Exchange DN container value '/o=Total Technologies/ou=Exchange Administrative Group (FYDIBOHF23SPDLT)/cn=Recipients' was not found during generation of the differential update file for offline address list '\Global Address List'. This will force clients using this offline address list to do a full download of the offline address list.
- Default Offline Address List

I noticed that the referenced Admin Group is one that no longer exists. How do I make it not look for that Admin Group anymore?

Thats pretty close because the 9341 event is immediately followed by the 9116 event in that article. I still don't know why it is referencing an Admin Group that doesn't exist anymore. That Admin Group was when I tried to upgrade to Exchange 2007, which didn't turn out the way I expected. So I moved all mailboxes back to the 2003 server and decomissioned the 2007 one.

I would re-apply SP2 for Exchange, as this issue was corrected in that SP.

The upgrade to 2007 did not go as planned? Sorry to hear. We are planning the move in 18 months or so. We will be going to training first to refresh our feeble brains, i'm sure we'll need it to get a head start on all the nuances.

I will try to reapply the SP2 tonight.

Any idea how to get rid of that old admin group? It's pretty annoying. It doesn't show up in adsiedit or system manager. I can't figure out where it is getting this information from.

Rachel Flewelling

That's just it. it ISN'T there anymore, it's probably a ghost in the OAL, and SP2 was supposed to correct this type of bug.

If reapplying SP2 doesn't work, then you've got a special case. Went to Exch2007, then moved mailboxes back to 2003, and encountered this OAL error. Might be one for professional services, or someone smarter than me. ;)
