Hi Vien,
Have you checked Martina's suggestion?
If the issue persists, I would like to clarify the following things for further research:
1. Please check if there exists DAG in your Exchange 2013.
2. Please check if the directory 'D:\Logs\DB01' exists.
What's more, I recommend you to use the ESEUTIL/mh cmdlet to check the database status when you create a database.
Hope it helps. If there are any problems, please feel free to let me know.
Best regards,
Amy
