Database in Mounting state for long time

Hi everyone,
i want to share with you strange thing happening on Exchange 2010 latest SP environment
A mailbox server crashed, and two of the databases on it came with (Mounting) state for a long time. Those databases have copies on another servers.
On the event viewer, i can see event ID 104 saying:
Exchange Search Indexer failed to enable the Mailbox Database DB1 (GUID = e34e7105-34b6-4502-8c55-c05744e15801) after 1 tries. The last failure was: MapiExceptionMdbOffline: Unable to Get Catalog State (hr=0x80004005, ec=1142)

The database is in Mounting state for a long time, can anyone help?

i understand that your environment has DAG and you are not able to activate passive copy.
You would need to activate alternate database copy using Move-ActiveMailboxDatabase with additional parameters specified.
As the database is not able to query the contentIndexState it is stuck at mounting.
Below command should help you to get your DB activated on passive server even when the CI State is unknown.
move-activemailboxdatabase -identity  DB1  -activateonserver site2mbx2
-mountdialoverride:none -skip activationchecks -skiplagchecks -skipclientExperiencechecks

  • Job is in scheduled state for longer time.

    Hi All,
    I am running a load which involves extraction from source system. The load was taking longer than the usual time. I grew suspicious and checked the status of the job in the source system. But that was sitting in the scheduled state and when i try to change the job status , not able to do so. I checked the BGD processes availability and they were all in waiting status.
    What can be done for this? Suggest ....

    Hi..the issue you have is probably due to the fact that already a lot many jobs are running in background in your R/3 system and unless they finish you job will not get any background processes to get it to active state from the scheduled state.
    Now thats why usually BW loading are done at night or off hours of business when transactions or r/3 jobs are not running much.
    Schedule your job at a time when background processes are available then you won't face this issue.
    Contact the basis handling the R/3 system.

  • Oracle Concurrent Programs remains in Running Normal State for long time.

    Hi All,
    We have encountered an issue where Concurrent Programs remains in the state of Running Normal.
    Importantly when we try to cancel those requests , it displays a pop-up message "*Could not lock request*".
    Also, when we click on Diagnostics button; it says
    *"Post-processing has completed for this request, but the manager has not yet marked it as Completed", the report is completing normal but the status is not marked as completed by manager."*
    Please help me to find the root cause of this issue.

  • Report running for long time & performance tuning

    Hi All,
    (1). WebI report is running for long time.so what are the steps i need to check for it ?
    (2). Can you tell me about performance tuning in BO ?
    please help me.....
    Thanks
    Kumar

    (1). WebI report is running for long time.so what are the steps i need to check for it ?
    The first step is to see if the problem lies in the query on the data source or in webi itself. Depending on the data source there are different ways to extract the query and try to run it against the database. Which source does your report uses?
    (2). Can you tell me about performance tuning in BO ?
    I would recommend to start by reading the administrator's guide. There is a section about how to improve performance.

  • SELECT statement takes long time

    Hi All,
    In the following code, if the T_QMIH-EQUNR contains blank or space values ,SELECT statement takes longer time to acess the data from OBJK table. If it T_QMIH-EQUNR contains values other than blank, performance is good and it fetches data very fast.
    Already we have indexes for EQUNR in OBJK table.
    Only for blank entries , it takes much time.Can anybody tell why it behaves for balnk entries?
    if not T_QMIH[] IS INITIAL.
            SORT T_QMIH BY EQUNR.
            REFRESH T_OBJK.
            SELECT EQUNR OBKNR
              FROM OBJK INTO TABLE T_OBJK
              FOR ALL ENTRIES IN T_QMIH
              WHERE OBJK~TASER = 'SER01' AND
             OBJK~EQUNR = T_QMIH-EQUNR.
    Thanks
    Ajay

    Hi
    You can use the field QMIH-QMNUM with OBJK-IHNUM
    in QMIH table, EQUNR is not primary key, it will have multiple entries
    so to improve the performance use one dummy internal table for QMIH  and sort it on EQUNR
    delete adjacent duplicates from d_qmih and use the same in for all entries
    this will improve the performance.
    Also use the fields in sequence of the index and primary keys also in select
    if not T_QMIH[] IS INITIAL.
    SORT T_QMIH BY EQUNR.
    REFRESH T_OBJK.
    SELECT EQUNR OBKNR
    FROM OBJK INTO TABLE T_OBJK
    FOR ALL ENTRIES IN T_QMIH
    WHERE  IHNUM =  T_QMIH-QMNUM
    OBJK~TASER = 'SER01' AND
    OBJK~EQUNR = T_QMIH-EQUNR.
    try this and let me know

  • ABAP process job ( BI_PROCESS_ABAP ) in process chain running for long time

    Dear Experts,
    We have an ABAP process job  BI_PROCESS_ABAP  in a process chain. This job is running for a very long time than previous run time.
    Recently we had an ORACLE database upgrade from 9.2 to 10g.
    From the very next day , we are having this problem.
    And also previously this process-chain was under control of BASIS guys . they were using a tool called CRONACLE to schedule it. At the time of upgrade this tool was crashed and they asked us to schedule it in BW system instead.
    Underlying program is using two custom tables.
    one is having both primary & secondary indexes but the other table is having only primary index.
    I am not sure whether we have secondary indexes on other table prior to upgrade or not.
    Where must be the problem?...
    At the time of upgrade BASIS has re-organized the table space along with database upgrade.
    please help me...
    Regards,
    SRIKANTH

    Please ask yr basis consultant to check the system parms.
    Below i have listed down SAP recommneded system parms .
    abap/heap_area_total 4000000000
    abap/heap_area_dia 2000000000
    abap/heap_area_nondia 2000000000
    Also check in SM37 if any other jobs are running for long time, peventing the your job running.
    Check the SM12 for locks or SM58

  • Custom web parts in SharePoint 2013 becomes inactive when the session is idle for long time.

    Hi,
    We have a search center site with custom web parts and custom master pages. When the session is inactive for long time all the custom web parts in the page doesn't work, unless we close the browser and open it. Where as this is not the case with the
    OOB web parts. We are not able to identify the root cause as it works with OOB web parts and not the custom web parts.We were able to find that by increasing the session timeout of the web application we can avoid this issue.We do not want to increase the
    session timeout as the OOB web part works perfectly even when the user session is idle for long time.Is there any other alternative where we can acheive the same for custom web parts when the session is idle for long time?
    Thanks,
    Saranya

    Hi Saranya,
    According to your descirption, my understanding is that when the session is long time idle ,then custom web part will not work.
    I suggest you check if you have enable the session in the Page Level in the web.config. By default SharePoint disable the session state.
    In the web.config, you will see <page enableSessionState> tag. You can modify like below and test if it works.
    <pages enableSessionState=”true” ….. />
    Here is a detailed thread for your reference:
    Use Session State in SharePoint

    But what is device mtp0? It doesn't sound like a disk name. It is having SCSI problems. I don't know if these messages are relevant though.
    I don't use VxVM as a rule, but your procedure seems reasonable to me.

  • Workflow trf executing for longer time

    Hi All,
    Workflow trfc executing for longer time in transaction SM58. Why will this happen ? Is there any resolution available ? Please advise on this issue. Below are the details :
    Caller: WF-BATCH
    Function Module: SWW_WI_EXECUTE_INTERNAL_RFC
    Status Text: Transaction Executing
    Program: SAPMSSY1
    Kind Regards
    Shiva

    Hi,
    Check if WF-BATCH user is not locked or the pwd changed. The same as the process started, see the event trace if you are triggering any wflow from this. And CLick on the event and see the "REceiver Data" and "Trace Data" if any errors are there.
    Sometimes, if this user got locked for some reason, it results in issues like you mentioned.
    Hope this helps
