SYMPTOMS
Mail sent from the host to Exchange Server by means of the Sendfile command might result in the OV/VM (PROFS) Connector restarting continuously. This will result in a mail backlog on the host side.
CAUSE
There are certain key words in the host (VM) environment that should not be used, for example, the keyword SYSTEM. When you use the keyword SYSTEM as part of a target Exchange Server mail recipient, the host will strip out the username (SYSTEM) before sending it to the OV/VM (PROFS) connector, which causes the OV/VM (PROFS) Connector to go into an endless loop.
RESOLUTION
To resolve this problem, obtain the latest service pack for Exchange Server version 5.5. For additional information, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
191014 XGEN: How to Obtain the latest Exchange Server 5.5 Service Pack
The English version of this fix should have the following file attributes or later:
Component: OV/VM (PROFS) Connector
File name | Version |
---|---|
Lsvmhc.dll | 5.5.2573.0 |
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in Microsoft Exchange Server version 5.5. This problem was first corrected in Exchange Server 5.5 Service Pack 3.
MORE INFORMATION
To send a note from the host to Exchange Server, the format is as follows:
SENDFILE <FILENAME> <FILETYPE> <FILEMODE> <USERID> AT <NODEID>
So in this case, taking the file Profile.exec on the A disk, and sending it to the Exchange(system) address, the command line would be:
SENDFILE PROFILE EXEC A SYSTEM AT EXCHANGE
