SCSM 2016 Exchange connector issues

Gosh its been quite some time, anyway I was dabbling with SCSM 2106 with UR3
installed quite reasonably


issues


AD connector not too good had to create it twice, not sure why but second time is has kept working
SCOM and ConfigMgr connectors all went in OK and kept on running, so thats all good


now for the dreaded SCSM exchange connector.... loads of issues around the account


crashing when using test connection, well then don't use it.... yes you do get prompted for a password if you click on next and hopefully all will work for you....
but what is if doesn't then what. get your brain fried, sleepless nights or do as I did


I got a link to SCSM update rollup 2, expand the details within this link
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=54655


and you can see another Microsoft.SystemCenter.ExchangeConnector.dll.exe file


hmm this looks interesting.....


Extract and replace the DLL which you created earlier when trying to install System Center Service Manager Connector 3.1 for Exchange into the Service Manager folder and close and open Service Manager console and now recreate you connector..


Whahooo..... it works as it should. well mine did :-)



The connector now works as it should
