The following list contains the issues that are fixed in version 6.0.6278.5 of the Exchange Server 2003 Management Pack for System Center Operations Manager 2007:
· Fixed an issue with Outlook Web Access (OWA) monitoring using custom URLs so that the Management Pack now looks for the CustomUrls registry key instead of the CustomOwaUrls registry key (consistent with previous versions of the Management Pack).
· Fixed an issue with data collection rules for mailbox or public folder size in MB. On monitored servers running Exchange Server 2003 and using Regional and Language Options other than English (United States) an issue can occur where the size of the mailbox or public folder is reported incorrectly, This will also affect the associated reports.
