| Description | "Unable to initialize directory user agent (DUA) workspace. " |
| Event Information | According to Microsoft: CAUSE : This issue can occur because there is a resource limitation in Dapi.dll; the maximum number of directory operation sessions is 10. WORKAROUND: To work around this issue, schedule exports to be run sequentially rather than simultaneously. This information from some newsgroups may help you: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Some antivirus software such as Norton AV may cause this problem. If so, please check if the AV software is running in Vapi or Mapi mode. Mapi mode AV applications may run directory exports to learn about new mailboxes.". One suggested troubleshooting aproach in these conditions is to temporarely stop the AV software and see if the error reoccurs. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
