I am trying to find the cause that makes this situation happen. We know how
to fix the problem( /cleanfreebusy ), but the problem keeps occuring and its starting to make some people angry. We have a situation where Outlook Calendar data between 2 or 3 people will not match. For example user A will have a meeting in his calendar for 11am in the boardroom. User B will want to schedule a meeting for a training room and invite User A. User B looking at User A's calendar inside of a meeting request sees that User A is free at 11 even though at User A's desk his Outlook shows he has a meeting at 11. User B not knowing that User A is busy at 11 invites him to attend a meeting and thus creates a scheduling conflict. We have been correcting this problem by checking that the users are running the same version of Outlook and/or servicepack (usually they are), but the fix is usually to run Outlook.exe /cleanfreebusy So.... we can fix the problem. BUT we would really like to know why this problem keeps happening. What is the cause of this issue? What triggers this to happen? We have seen this happen to people that we have previously fixed. It keeps coming back. Our Enviroment. Ad 2k3 Native, Exchange 2k3 SP2 Native Single Mailbox Server, Single Domain Multiple Outlook Versions: Majority Outlook 2003 w/ sp3 others: Outlook 2002 Outlook 2000 Outlook Web Access users. |
