Error creating new Mailbox Database Exchange 2010
When you try and create a new Mailbox Database, you receive the following Error:
How do we resolve this error, to start we need to look at our current AD Server settings in Exchange and that can be checked using the following cmdlet.
|
1 |
Get-ADServerSettings |
As we can see that we don’t have any Domain specified for Configuration, Preferred and PreferredGlobalCatalog.
So, go ahead and Set the preferred Domain Controller by using the following cmdlet.
|
1 |
Set-ADServerSettings –ConfigurationDomainController TCLDC01.thatcloudlab.local –PreferredGlobalCatalog TCLDC01.thatcloudlab.local |
As an additional measure for troubleshooting, check if you have an replication issues between your domain controllers. This can be done by running the following cmdlet on one of the Domain Controllers.
|
1 |
Repadmin /replsummary |
From what I can see above is that I have some errors for DNS lookups. I will kick of a restart of the second Domain Controller in attempt to resolve that error. Next, I will run the following cmdlet to force replication.
|
1 |
Repadmin /syncall |
Let’s go ahead and run the command again to create a new Mailbox Database.
And there you go new Database created without any issues, last let’s go ahead and mount the Database.
