    Dear friends ..

    is there any way to check if my both HTS servers are working as i am suspecting that only one is talking all load and rest one is idle ... becoz when ever there is something blocking or some msg from server its generated by my hts02 .. and couple of days back when i checkd the forefront on HTS01 it shows that msgs got scanned but nothign got blocked.. i cant stop my HTS02 to check if HTS01 is working cant take that disk ..

    is there any other way to check the working of HTS servers  (and if some help can also be provided on CAS server like if at same time i want to check if my both CAS are working fine although it can be seperate discussion if this cant be handled here

    i am attaching the screen shot of forefront from my hts01 if that can give some idea.

    Thanks
    Happiness Always

    Just load up perfmon and look at the following counter for both HTs

    MSExchangeTransport Queues\Messages Completed Delivery Total

    That should show you if one is processing more than the other.

    Check all your send connectors and make sure that both HTs are listed as "Source Servers". Also how are you routing inbound mail to your HTs? Are you using a load balancer with both HTs in a VIP? Are you using NLB? Or do you just have MX records pointing to both HTs?
