Installing SP3 on Exchange 2010 - Error

Hi,
I'm getting an error message when trying to install SP3 on Exchange 2010.
I am currently running: Exchange 2010 SP1 - Windows Server 2008 Ent.  2 nodes, DAG
"The server side error is: 0x21a2 The FSMO role ownership could not be verified because its directory partition has not replicated successfully with at least one replication partner."
So I ran dcdiag, and sure enough I get a replication error, several of them actually:
 "The failure occurred at 2014-02-11 13:54:23.
            The last success occurred at 2013-05-30 00:51:00.
            32 failures have occurred since the last success.
         [Replications Check,EXCHANGE2010] A recent replication attempt failed:
            From EXCHANGE2010-2 to EXCHANGE2010
            Naming Context: CN=Schema,CN=Configuration,DC=mydomainname,DC=lcl
            The replication generated an error (8614):
            The directory service cannot replicate with this server because the time since the last replication with thi
s server has exceeded the tombstone lifetime."
The thing I'm not understanding is this: When I check the EMC looking at the DAG tab, it looks as though everything with the DAG is fine. Also, when I check the Organization Config->Mailbox, both copies of the Database seem to be Healthy.
So, I guess what I'm asking is what can be causing this error message and what steps can I take to try to fix it? I'm not an expert at this, which I guess is clear since I'm posting here!
Thanks,
mike

Thanks DarDevil,
Before you replied I came across an article that suggested I could force a replication.
So I ran the command they listed:  ‘repadmin /syncall /AeD
It seemed to have worked, as I am now able to install SP3, which was the thing I was trying to do all along. I'm testing SP3 on this test system before I install on production.
Any particular reason not to run the force replication command above?  Before running the command, I put in a registry key that would allow it according to another article I read. I have since removed the key.
HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\NTDS\Parameters\Allow Replication With Divergent and Corrupt Partner
Thanks!

  • Failure installing SP3 on Exchange 2010

    Good evening,
    Following TechNet closely I'm currently in the process of moving my exchange 2010 environment to 2013.  I have single exchange server on a SBS 2011 box.  Sadly I've failed at the first hurdle installing SP3, the result is that my Exchange 2010
    is refusing all client connections.
    During the SP3 install I passed all prerequisites but during the actual upgrade it failed at the Hub Transport Role with the following error:
    Summary: 8 item(s). 3 succeeded, 1 failed.

    Hi RicChapman,
    From the event log files, I recommend you do as follows to check the result.
    1.disabling all the exchange services
    2.clearing both the apps and system logs
    3.restarting the server
    4.reinstall the Exchange 2010 SP3

  • Migration from Exchange 2007 SP3 to Exchange 2010

    Hello,
    We are planning a single server migration from Exchange 2007 SP3 to Exchange 2010.  I'll be building the 2010 server on a 2008 R2 box. My question is, can I make the jump directly to Exchange 2010 SP3, or do I need to install exchange 2010 SP1 first
    - migrate from 2007 SP3, and then install SP3 for exchange 2010 later? 
    Thanks,
    Eric

    @ Hasan
    Dimdik - TAT,
    That's not correct at all, you can migrate exchange server 2007 SP3 and RollUp Update 10 minimum to Exchange Server 2013 with minimum CU1.

  • Unable to install rollup4 for Exchange 2010 SP3

    Hi,
    I'm unable to install KB2905616 on my multi-role Exchange 2010 SP3 server. The setup wizard gets stuck at "the setup wizard is generating native images for .NET assemblies........"
    I know that this process will take some time to complete but I have waited 10 hours.
    I've tried to reboot the server and restart the setup.
    Exchange is functioning perfectly otherwise.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated :)

    Hi,
    I recommend you check if the anti-virus has been disabled before you start the upgrade process.
    If you didn't ,the update could fail or take an extended amount of time. 
    Also, disable all other third-party apps/plugins that might be installed (like backup agents).
    In addition,the following articles for your reference:
    Install the Latest Update Rollup for Exchange 2010
    When you install an update rollup package, Exchange tries to connect to the certificate revocation list (CRL) Web site. Exchange examines the CRL list to verify the code signing certificate. (To download and view the CRL list, see
    CodeSignPCA.crl.) If Exchange can't connect to the CRL Web site, the following symptoms may occur:
    The installation takes a long time to complete.
    You receive the following message during the installation: Creating native images for .Net assemblies
    When Exchange isn't connected to the Internet, each CRL request must complete before the installation can continue.
    To work around this issue and to reduce installation times, turn off the
    Check for publisher’s certificate revocation option on the server that is being upgraded. Use the following steps:
    Start Internet Explorer.
    On the Tools menu, click Internet Options.
    Click the Advanced tab, and then locate the Security section.
    Clear the Check for publisher’s certificate revocation check box, and then click
    OK.
    After the update rollup installation is complete, select the Check for publisher’s certificate revocation option.
    Generating NGEN images takes longer than expected
    Hope this helps!
    Thanks.

  • How do I reinstall SP3 for Exchange 2010?

    Hello,
    I am having some Exchange 2010 issues and am wanting to reinstall SP3, but when I try, I get an error:
    Some controls aren't valid:
    Please select at least one server role to install.
    All of the roles have been installed and I cannot even uninstall a role (greyed out)
    I have version 14.3.132.002 of the SP.
    Please advise.
    Have a great day,
    Don

    I had the same exact error when running "setup.com /mode:upgrade" to re-install Exchange 2010 SP3.
    We never did have Unified Communications installed on our server - but when running the "setup.com /mode:upgrade" it will try to install UC - and fail with the error message that it could not find the file "UMLanguagePack.en-US.msi"
    The answer to this is in the path, and here is the 2nd bug for re-installing Exchange 2010 SP3:
    I had extracted my Exchange SP3 files to C:\Temp\Exchange2010SP3,  I browsed to the \en folder and sure enough, there was the file "UMLanguagePack.en-US.msi"  the full path to the file was
    C:\Temp\Exchange2010SP3\en\UMLanguagePack.en-US.msi - however, the path in the error message stated it was looking for the file in a completely different path:
    C:\Users\administrator.IMA\Desktop\SP3\en\UMLanguagePack.en-US.msi
    The solution was to create a folder on the desktop called SP3, copy the contents of C:\temp\Exchange2010SP3 to the SP3 folder on the desktop, and then the installer will find the UMLanguagePack.en-US.msi file that it is looking for.
    In your specific case - your installer was looking for the file in 'D:\Tools\Exchange 2010\SP3\en\UMLanguagePack.en-US.msi' - which I'll bet was not the file path you were using to reinstall Exchange 2010 SP3.
    My exact error message:
    Unified Messaging Role: Failed
    Error:
    The following error was generated when "$error.Clear();
    install-MsiPackage -PackagePath $RolePackagePath -LogFile $RoleLogFilePath -UpdatesDir $RoleUpdatesDir -PropertyValues ("INSTALLDIR=`"" + $RoleInstallPath + "`" ESE=1");

    I tried running /PrepareDomain
    It was successfully but this error keeps coming.
    * The might been another error regarding to the domain before i run /PrepareDomain that solved.
    So you were able to install Exchange Server 2010 without anymore issue?

  • Exchange 2010 error Creating Contact

    I get the below error when doing any action in 2010 EMC or via 2010 powershell. I also get it when moving mailbox from 2007 to Office 365. My setup is Exchange 2007 with an Exchange 2010 SP3 Hybrid server with HUB and CAS roles installed. I can create
    this object in 2007 EMC or in ADUC.

    Hi,
    First, please make sure the account have these required permissions: Organization Management and Recipient Management.
    Please check on your account in AD under advanced settings if the checkbox "Include inheritable permissions from this object's parent" is checked as this can cause problems when you perform Exchange tasks.
    Have you tried to execute the Setup /PrepareAD command to check the result? This command will run the Forest Prep and Domain Prep for Exchange Environment and will re-add all the permissions to the Forest and Domain.
    If no, it's worth to try it.
    If the issue persists, to narrow down the issue, I need to clarify one thing.
    Did you install Exchange 2010 using the split permissions model?
    For the split permissions model, please refer to:
    Understanding Split Permissions
    Here is a similar thread for your reference.

  • Trying to install SP1 for Exchange 2010 on Win Server 2008 R2. A pre-req is KB982867. It is no where to be found. How to find it?

    The SP1 wizard says "Install Hotfix Microsoft Knowledge Base article 982867 from http://code.msdn.microsoft.com/KB982867
    However, that link no longer exists.
    How to get this hotfix?
    Another post said that the Win 7 hotfix would work. Windows6.1-KB982867-v2-x64 But I can't locate that either.
    How to fix?

    Hi John,
    Exchange 2010 Service Pack 3 is the latest service pack. It is recommended to install it. Service Packs are cumulative, Exchange 2010 SP3 includes all fixes included in previous RUs and service packs. Here is a blog for your reference:

  • UAG 2010 SP3 - OWA Exchange 2010 - Large attachments fail to open

    We have a UAG 2010 SP3 server in front of Exchange 2010 CAS. On the UAG side we have disabled the component installation and activation for UAG within the session configuration. When users access OWA and open attachments it works fine up until a certain
    size of an attachment. Somewhere around 10MB we are unable to download externally from OWA. At that point when clicking on the attachment a "The page cannot be displayed" is received. 
    Attachments of sizes larger than 10MB are able to be opened internally accessing the CAS directly. Under the Download/Upload configuration of the OWA application in UAG Identify by URL is checked for both (Uploads has Identify by size but Download
    is unchecked). 
    Is there a limitation on UAG to OWA download size? Is there any other configuration that should be checked to alleviate this issue?

    The page cannot be displayed

    i will be thankful for any assistant.
    PF DB is arounf 90 GB with alot of public folders and sub-folders. around 60 mail PF and too many subfolders.

    First and the most important thing you need to do is, upgrade exchange 2010 to SP2 and RU5.
    Exchange 2010 RTM support is long gone.

  • Install a temporary Exchange 2010 in an existing environment

    I have an existing production environment with 3 Exchange 2010 servers in a DAG configuration working well.I would now like to verify the backups by restoring databases to a new Exchange 2010 server which I will only keep for a limited time.When installing Exchange 2010 I get "You must be member of the 'Organization Management' role group or 'Enterprise Admin' to continue"I assume this is because I need some specific permissions in Active Directory I don't normally have. I could very well use a different account which I'm fairly sure has these permissions, but I want to make sure I'm not introducing instability in our production environment by adding a fourth Exchange 2010 server which will then be deleted again.I have no intention of configuring the fourth server as a DAG member, but I'm not really an Exchange person and I'm looking...

    Hi FriendzKnight
    II,
    Try to perform exchange 2010 recovery using the recovery switch. Build new exchange 2010 server and restore the exchange 2010 from the backup using recovery switch.
    This will work to get back exchange 2010 in your existing exchange 2013 enivornment

  • Before I upgrade to SP3 for Exchange 2010...

    Hi All!
    My company’s Exchange environment consists of the following:
    AD Domain forest with one PDC in the main office, and 4 additional domain controllers at 4 remote offices
    The forest and domain functional level is 2003
    The PDC at the main office is running Server 2012 R2.
    The domain controllers at the remote offices are running Server 2003 SP2 (upgrade to 2012 R2 is in the works)
    Our Exchange server is in the main office. It is a simple Mailbox, Client, Hub, UM setup.
    The Exchange version is 14.00.0722.000
    Questions:
    Version 14.00.0722.000 would be Exchange RTM, and as a result hasn’t been SP’d or RU’d since it was installed on our email server correct?
    I would like to upgrade this Exchange server to the latest SP and RU. I understand that the updates are cumulative and that I should be able to install SP3 and RU8 without having
    to install all of the previous versions. Is this a safe assumption?
    What steps should I take before/after installing the SP and RU to ensure a "pleasant" and smooth experience for myself, my boss and my users?
    Any and all comments are appreciated, thank you!
