8. CAS For a given mailbox’s connectivity, the protocol being used is always served by the server that hosts the active database copy Each CAS determines the right end point for the traffic, and so all sessions – regardless of where they started – end up in the same place This means that the rendering for clients like OWA occurs on the Mailbox server, Transport transcoding is occurring on the Mailbox server, etc. User DAG1 MBX-A MBX-B MBX-A Layer 4LB

48. All mailflow scenarios are monitored across three transport components Each health set has multiple monitors and probes that execute synthetic transactions and assess the state of the service Responder workflows execute and alert when health sets become unhealthy

49. Transport has three component states – Active, Draining and Inactive. In “Active” state, a component is considered provisioned and handles user and probe traffic In “Draining” state, no new user traffic is accepted; messages queued on the server can be delivered (This state is reserved for stateful transport service only) In “Inactive” state, only monitoring probe traffic is accepted

52. Provides a snapshot summary of messages queued across multiple scopes – Forest, DAG, Site, Server Aggregation runs every minute and is configurable Only queues having a threshold of >=10 messages are aggregated by default Queues can be pivoted by NextHopDomain, NextHopCategory, NextHopKey, DeliveryType, Status, LastError, or ServerName properties on the queue

53. All three components generate to protocol, connectivity, agent and DNS new logs Transport and mailbox transport on mailbox role generate message tracking logs Transport, in addition to above, generates IRM, active user/server statistics, routing table, queue new, workload management (WLM) new and QueueQuota new
