Google Message Continuity Setup and Administration Guide
1. Complete a preparation checklist
Before you install the Continuity Sync Server, you need to complete a few
important steps from the following checklist:
•
Make sure you have Exchange 2003, 2007, or 2010 as your primary mail
server.
•
Do not install the Continuity Sync Server on the same machine that is running
your Exchange Server.
•
Each Windows client machine where you plan to install and run the
Sync Server must have the following minimum configuration:
•
Windows XP SP3, Windows Server 2003 or Windows 7
•
Outlook 2003, 2007, or 2010.
•
Be sure the computer where you plan to install and run the Sync Server has a
disk space of at least 10MB per user and an overall disk space of at least
5GB.
•
Decide the Windows user account under which the Sync Server will run (for
example, solarmora.com\jadmin).
•
Give Exchange administrative role permissions (including 'Receive As') to that
Windows account (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/823018). This account
must have both read and write privileges on all accounts to be synched.
•
The Continuity Sync Server uses the standard ports for HTTP and HTTPS --
by default, these are ports 80 and 443. We recommend the following:
•
Open the Sync Server to port 80.
•
Open port 443 to Google API hosts. If the Sync Server is unable to reach
any services that it needs to talk to (EMAPI, EMAPI), it will throw an error.
•
Open the Sync Server to port 80 on the following host as well:

This is not a required step for GMC to work, but it provides us with
valuable debug information in the event of a system crash.
