XADM: CDO for Exchange Management Does Not Honor the Domain Controller That You Specified in the SourceURL Field in the Call to IDataSource->SaveTo(); Fix Requires Exchange 2000 SP3 (327354)



The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Exchange 2000 Server
  • Collaboration Data Objects for Exchange 2000

This article was previously published under Q327354

SYMPTOMS

If you use the CDOEXM::IStorageGroup interface to create a new storage group in an Exchange 2000 organization, CDO for Exchange Management (CDOEXM) may not create the new object on the domain controller that you specified.

You can specify an ADsPath that specifies where the new object is created in the call to IDataSource::SaveTo when you use the CDOEXM::IStorageGroup interface to create a new storage group in the organization. This ADsPath may look similar to:

LDAP://dc-1.domain.com/cn=New StorageGroup,cn=...

However, CDOEXM may not create the new object on the domain controller that you specified.
