New DAG - 2012R2 & Exchange 2013 SP1

Hi there,
Setting up a test platform running on 2012R2 with Exchange 2013SP1, and whilst all looks ok I simply cannot add any server to a new DAG, I can create the dag without any issues and tried using DAG with an IP, and a simplified DAG without IP however simply
cannot add any of my 2 member servers with the following error;
Exchange 2013 SP1 A server-side administrative operation has failed. 'GetNetworkConfig' failed on the server. Error: The NEtworkManager has not yet initialized.
LAN - 10.21.129.111 & 112 / 24
REPLICATION - 192.168.129.111 & 112 / 24
I've checked everything! All sits on vCloud, removed ALL NICs and replaced, removed Symantec, no loss between REPL NICs, all seems fine.  Not a lot in the logs other than these last results;
[2014-03-05T12:51:10] Updating 'MDB001'.MasterServerOrAvailabilityGroup to 'DAG001.
[2014-03-05T12:51:10] database[ 0 ] (MBDB01)'s MsOrDag=DAG001.

[2014-03-05T12:51:10] Working
I'm at the end of the road and cannot find anything to help me ;(

HI Jared,
I agree, have a feeling it's that bit but not sure how to check if working or re-install perhaps.
Copy status is ALL ok;
CopyQueueLength - 0
ReplayQueueLEnght - 0
ContentIndexState - Healthy
This is without DAG.  For replication Health fails on last 2 points on both VMs, could it be missed failover cluster bit or didn't install correctly?

  • Upgrade of Integation Services (Windows 2012 R2) on Windows 2008 R2 with Exchange 2013 SP1 DAG fails

    Here is the scenario:
    Legacy Host: Windows 2008 R2
    Guest VM: Windows 2008 R2 with Exchange 2013 SP1 DAG cluster.
    After importing the VM (2008 R2 and Exchange 2013 DAG) into a 2012 R2 host (Cluster).  (copy VM files to new 2012 R2host) Everything works fine.
    Then upgrading "Installation Services" (for Windows 2012 R2 host) on the imported VM runs fine with no errors to the "Restart" prompt. VM than shows: "Configuring Windows updates 32% complete. Do not turn
    of your computer." Hangs there for about 20 minutes until is says "shutting down". Hangs there for 20 minutes until power off. Restart to normal start; "Preparing to configure Windows. Do not turnoff your computer." proceeds slowly
    to "Configuring Windows updates 32% complete. Do not turn of your computer." hangs there again indefinite. Sometime hangs at shutdown cycle and "Configuring Windows updates 32% complete. Do not turn of your computer." indefinitely.
    I moved 20 other machines from a 2008 R2 host to new Windows 2012 R2 hosts all of these machines install the 2012 R2 Integration services just fine on the 2008 R2 VM. Just the 2008 R2 VMs clustered (DAG) and Exchange 2013 SP1 do not take the Integration
    Services upgrade.
    Any advise from Microsoft? I know I could decommission the DAG and Exchange machines and install Integration services on the native box before Exchange and DAG and that would sure work, but I'd rather avoid that amount of work for a simple integration layer
    upgrade.

  • Exchange 2013 Sp1 says that it is 'Microsoft Exchange Server 2013 Cumulative Update 3 Unattended Setup'

    So, I have decompressed my brand new download of Exchange 2013 SP1. This was downloaded from the link at the bottom of the post.
    So to start my upgrade I have tried to start by running the schema preparation which then advises me that I am welcomed to:
    'Microsoft Exchange Server 2013 Cumulative Update 3 Unattended Setup'
    Is this poor QA or was the incorrect file uploaded?
    http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=41994

    Hello,
    Powershell need full path to file you want to run.
    So you should run .\setup.exe instead of just setup.exe.
    Hope this help.

  • Exchange 2013 SP1 on Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise - BSOD after DAG creation

    Hi,
    We are running Exchange 2007 SP3 RU13 on Windows 2003 R2 with SP2 in a 2003 native AD environment and recently decided to upgrade to Exchange 2013. We installed a pair of new DELL R420 servers running Windows 2008 R2 Enterprise then threw Exchange 2013 SP1
    onto them. This all went fine and the servers are running stable.
    We connected the second NIC of each server to the other via a separate switch, the second NIC has Client for MS Networks and File/Printer Sharing disabled plus a totally separate subnet with no DNS or GW address assigned. DAG setup was run and completed
    OK. I created the DAG network in Exchange and enabled replication, I also left replication enabled across the production LAN. Finally, I went into the advanced network settings and made sure the replication network was below the production network in the binding
    order.
    After an hour or two the BSOD's started.. both servers would crash within a few minutes of each other and reboot with a Kernel Panic. I have attached the contents of the dump file below. This seems to happen every few hours and it always seems to be the
    server hosting the passive DB copies crashes first, followed by the server hosting the active copies. Note that if we disable the replication NIC on both servers they do not crash.
    I got the impression from somewhere that perhaps the servers had mixed up the binding order and were trying to use the replication network as primary, losing access to AD and rebooting (which I have read is the behaviour for Exchange now). It appears the
    Exchange Health service has killed WININIT which causes the crash.
    Thanks!!!
    The crash dump text is below:
    CRITICAL_OBJECT_TERMINATION (f4)
    A process or thread crucial to system operation has unexpectedly exited or been
    terminated.

    Hi Darrkon,
    I suggest checking the status of the HealthMailbox on each of servers.
    Also try to re-create the mailbox. You can safely delete and recreate health mailboxes.
    Be aware that any local Managed Availability probes that are using the these mailboxes will fail until the Microsoft Exchange Health Manager is restarted.  Once that service is restarted, it will recreate any mailboxes that it needs. 
    More details in the following similar thread, just for your reference:

  • What happend New-MailboxExportRequest cmdlet in exchange 2013 SP1 is missing?

    Cmdlet New-MailboxExportRequest is not recognize cmdlet in Exchange 2013 SP1
    How can i do export mailbox to pst file in exchange 2013 SP1?

    You might be facing this issue because of not having the rights to execute the New-MailboxExportRequest CMDLET.
    Follow the steps given below in order to export the mailboxes into PST file
    1. Open the Exchange Console and run:
    New-ManagementRoleAssignment -Name "Import Export PST" -SecurityGroup "Organization Management" -Role “Mailbox Import Export"
    This will generate a new role group called Import Export PST to the Oranization Management group with the role Mailbox Import Export.
    You should Close and Restart the Exchange Management System again so that the changes made will get reflected in the settings, otherwise you will still get the same erroriIf not
    restarted. Now move to the next steps.
    2. Assign “Mailbox Import Export” role to it.
    3.  Add Desired Users to Role Group
    4.  Create Network Share ( Exchange Trusted Subsystem group has read/write permission to NTFS Permissions)
    5. Run PS New-MailboxExportRequest
    6. Monitor New-MailboxExportRequest
    Verify PST File has been created on the network Share and you are done.
    If you get the same error again, then there will be some hardware or software issues due to which you are not able to export mailboxes into PST files. In that case, you can make
    use of any third party tool like Stellar Phoenix EDB To PST converter, which will help you to export your exchange database files to PST files easily and quickly. You can try this software by downloading its demo directly from their site http://www.stellarinfo.com/email-repair/edb-pst-converter.php

  • ActiveSync is not working properly after migrating to new Exchange 2013 SP1 server?!

    Few weeks ago we have added new Exchange 2013 SP1 onto our existing Exchange 2007 environment. I have migrated my mailbox to the new Ex2013 server. Everything (send/receive - internally/externally, OWA, OutlookAnywhere) for me and the existing Ex2007
    users works fine. The only thing I have trouble with is the ActiveSync! After migrating to the new Ex2013 server my phone stops getting new emails…, existing Ex2007 users don’t have any problems with their mobile phones.
    I did ActiveSync test for my user account with ActiveSync Tester and here is what I have:
    As you can see from the error above  ActiveSync Tester detects ActiveSync on Ex2013 server however something wrong there with form-based auth?! I can’t see any differences in settings for ActiveSync virtual folders in Ex2007 and Ex2013
    virtual folders?!
    What I’m missing here?! Please help.

    Check if the Exchange Servers group does not have the appropriate permission to the mailbox object in Active Directory.
    To check whether inheritance is disabled on the user:
    1.Open Active Directory Users and Computers.
    2.On the menu at the top of the console, click View > Advanced Features.
    3.Locate and right-click the mailbox account in the console, and then click Properties.
    4.Click the Security tab.
    5.Click Advanced.
    6.Make sure that the check box for "Include inheritable permissions from this object's parent" is selected.
    Ref:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd439375(v=exchg.80).aspx

  • Exchange 2013 SP1 database missing?? New install of Exchange 2007 co-exist

    Hi all,
    Finally got Exchange 2013 SP1 installed except I am not so sure I have a database. This is installed on a Server 2008 system and is co-existing with Exchange 2007.
     When I go to SERVERS and DATABASES I don't have anything listed. When I click SERVERS on the left hand pane and SERVERS at the top I see both servers, 2007 and 2013. But when I double click my new Exchange Server 2013 name I get the error:
    The operation couldn't be performed because object '*\ExchangeServerName' couldn't be found on 'FirstDCName.mydomain.com'
    Why would I get this error? The install itself was problematic so I am concerned something is broke.
    Thank you in advance.

    Hello,
    Firstly, I recommend you check if the server name "*\ExchangeServerName" exists on DC via ADUC (select Computers).
    Secondly, please run the get-exchangeserver | fl name cmdlet to check your exchange server name.
    And then please check the exchange setup log to check if the exchange 2013 server is installed successfully. If not, please check if there is any error in setup log.

    Hi, thanks for the answer.
    I restarted the server and did the "run as administrator": same result.
    The first errormessage in the exchangesetup.log is:
    [ERROR] Setup encountered a problem while validating the state of Active Directory: Active Directory server  is not available. Error message: Active directory response: The LDAP server is unavailable.  See the Exchange setup log for more information
    on this error.
    When I run dcdiag /s:DC01 from EX01 it passes all tests except:
    DFSREvent "The RPC server is unavailable"
    KccEvent "The RPC server is unavailable."
    SystemLog  "The RPC server is unavailable."
    Could these be of any influence?
    Running dcdiag on DC01 passes all tests.
    The only thing I changed after setting up DC01, was changing the fixed IP-adres from 192.168.25.3 to 192.168.25.2, but I ran ipconfig /flushdns and ipconfig /registerdns and dcdiag /fix afterwards.
    The only roles installed on DC01 are AD DS (I tried installing exchange before and after adding the AD DS role), AD, DNS, DHCP and Fileservices
    I don't know where to look anymore....

  • Exchange 2013 sp1 move databases

    Hello all
    I am running Exchange 2013 sp1 in a two node DAG. Originally the DAG  had two under powered servers, i built two new more powerful servers added the servers to the DAG, then i moved database copies to the new servers, removed the copies from the original
    servers and then removed the original servers from the DAG. The two original servers are multi role (CAS Mailbox) and currently they are still in the org. My confusion is around this. When i run get-mailbox -identity <name>. The output from the command
    shows the mailbox is on oldserver.  Again oldserver was removed from the DAG and no databases exist on the server. I want to remove the two old servers from the org, but i am hesitant on doing this because all mailboxes seem to think they exist on oldserver 
    Thanks for any help

  • BSOD after upgrading to exchange 2013 SP1

    Hi,
    I Have 4 servers, x2 Mailbox and x2 CAS, all with 2008 r2 OS, Mailboxes with DAG. Problem started after I upgraded all servers from Exchange 2013 CU3 to Ex13 SP1. All Servers are in Vmware, same hardware.
    All servers getting BSOD, error is same as some other posts in Internet about:

    I found that it could restart like many times in a day, but
    Throttling does not let it, just one restart per day.
    I already spent four days trying to find problem but no luck.
    Try'ed to add override
    Add-GlobalMonitoringOverride
    -Identity Exchange\ActiveDirectoryConnectivityConfigDCServerReboot  -ItemType Responder -PropertyName Enabled -PropertyValue 0 -Duration 60.00:00:00
    but
    after 
    (Get-WinEvent
    -LogName Microsoft-Exchange-ActiveMonitoring/responderdefinition | % {[XML]$_.toXml()}).event.userData.eventXml | ?{$_.Name -like “ActiveDirectoryConnectivityConfigDCServerReboot"} | ft name,enabled
    still shows propertyValue 1, and servers are restarting no matter what, I just dont want to disable HealtManager
    Service.
    Try'ed to recreate all performance counters, did'nt worked
    Try'ed to create prefered domain controller, did'nt worked
    Try'ed to play with healthSet 'AD', but there is almost no information about it in TechNet, so I just looked which services are unhealthy, sometimes it shows ActiveDirectoryConnectivityServer
    or ActiveDirectoryConnectivityConfigDCServer as unhealthy, but after few minutes it goes to
    healthy, problem that Exchange could already restart the server
    mainly reason I think is: 
    The AD Health Set has detected a problem with Server.contoso.com at 2014.04.09 06:33:11. The Health Manager is reporting that ActiveDirectoryConnectivityProbe/Server.contoso.com
    Failed with Error message:  Search took 1518 ms. Threshold 800 ms. Attempts to auto-recover from this condition have failed and requires Administrator attention. Exception Details: System.Exception:  Search took 1518 ms. Threshold 800 ms
    I really need some new ideas...
    EDIT: Exchange 2013 sp1 works perfectly in test lab, there are  cloned machines from production, the only difference is DomainController, there is just one (server), no replications, and no subdomains (production domain have subdomain). 
    Running DCDiag shows no errors

    Hello Everyone,
    We have 2 CAS and 4 Mailbox server that were installed from SP1 and seeing the same issue.  This is a clean install still with no mailboxes migrated over as of yet.  Opened a case with MS.  also ran:
    Add-GlobalMonitoringOverride
    -Identity Exchange\ActiveDirectoryConnectivityConfigDCServerReboot  -ItemType Responder -PropertyName Enabled -PropertyValue 0 -Duration 60.00:00:00
    Waiting
    for MS to get back and to see how this workaround does.  Seems like the original issue was not resolved completely?
    Will
    post back when we get an update.  Changing the DirectoryActiveMonitoringContext.xml and the above workaround do not seem suitable for us.  We would like to see a complete resolution for this.
    Good
    luck!

  • Migrate to Windows 2012 R2 and Exchange 2013 SP1 using database portability

    Hi, I'm planning to migrate from Exchange 2013 SP1 running on Windows 2012 to Exchange 2013 SP1 on Windows 2012 R2.
    Is it possible to use database portability to move the databases from the exchange installation on win 2012 to the new installation on Win 2012 R2? This would save a great deal of time not doing the mailbox moves.
    I've searched similar cases but couldn't find any, all speak about disaster recovery and database portability but I've found no articles that uses the migration scenario.
    Would it be possible to do and if so, what would the steps be? Do I need to delete the database from the source server, move the database files to the new server and mount them and relocate the mailboxes? Or should I dismount the database on the source server,
    move them to the new server and mount them and relocate the mailboxes?
    Frank.

    Hi,
    According to your description, I recommend you consider using DAG to achieve your requirement.
    The following steps for your reference:
    1.Prepare a new server which installed windows 2012 R2 for Exchange 2013 mailbox server.
    2.After you deploy Exchange 2013 Mailbox servers, you can create a DAG, add Mailbox servers to the DAG, and then replicate mailbox databases between the DAG members.
    3.After replication, you can mount all the databases on the new server.
    Hope this helps!
    Thanks.

    This no way a resolution. This won't work at all as Both OS will be different and you can't form the Cluster.

  • Exchange 2013 SP1 CU8 installation stuck

    Good Morning,

    Thanks and best regards,
    Sebastian

    Hi,
    According to your post, I understand that install Exchange 2013 SP1 CU8 in a DAG with MBX role failed with error “Cmdlet failed. Cmdlet New-PerfCounters, parameters -DefinitionFileName ‘ADDriverCachePerformanceCounters.xml’”.
    If I misunderstand your concern, please do not hesitate to let me know.
    I want to double confirm whether you deploy clean install or implement upgrade an existing Exchange Server 2013 installation to Cumulative Update 8.
    To rebuild all Performance counters including extensible and third-party counters, type the following commands at an Administrative command prompt. Press ENTER after each command:
    1. Rebuilding the counters:
        cd c:\windows\system32
        lodctr /R
    2. Resyncing the counters with Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI):
        WINMGMT.EXE /RESYNCPERF
    3. Stop and restart the Performance Logs and Alerts service.
    4. Stop and restart the Windows Management Instrumentation service.
    If the issue persists, please run to reload all the perf counters. For your reference:

  • Exchange 2013 SP1: messages still stuck in Drafts folder

    Hello!
    The second question on Exchange 2013SP1 that I asked when I was working with Exchange 2013:
    New lab setup: a Windows 2012R2 DC (server1) + Exchange 2013SP1 (server2). Exchange 2013SP1 installation completed successfully. I created three mailboxes: [email protected], [email protected], [email protected]
    Now when I'm trying to send a message (from user1 to user, for example) it gets stuck in the Drafts folder.
    I manually set up my DNS server in ECP:
    as described here: http://thoughtsofanidlemind.com/2013/03/25/exchange-2013-dns-stuck-messages - but the problem persists.
    And this problem
    "On every single installation / that I’ve done of Exch 2013 in multiple labs, when set as a single mailbox server, messages have never been able to leave the “drafts” folder. Not a single instance where it worked correctly. Messages
    leaving a mailbox, destined to the exact same server do not route, let alone use any send-connector to leave the organization.
    Now, take it to the next step, and install a second mailbox server. The very second that services finish installing, and AD replication (if using multiple sites) settles down, mail-flow on the first server starts working absolutely flawlessly. Whatever
    changes are done to AD from the second mailbox server being installed in regards to mailflow, it completely resolves the issues of the first server holding onto the messages."
    ...is exactly the same as mine...but in Exchange 2013 SP1 ( Messages leaving a mailbox, destined to the exact same server do not route).
    Can anybody from MS tell me if it's a bug or by design??? I've NEVER had an Exchange installation without this issue...
    Thank you in advance,
    Michael

    Hi,
    I have never come across such a situation in my labs(all roles install in a single server), and there is no Microsoft documentation mentioned this issue.
    In addition, Microsoft does not oppose the Exchange installed on a single server(although not recommend).
    I recommend you check if all the exchange services are running, and try to restart Exchange Mailbox Transport Submission & Exchange Mailbox Assistants services.
    Hope this helps!
    Thanks.

  • Seemingly successful install of Exchange 2013 SP1 turns into many errors in event logs after upgrade to CU7

    I have a new Exchange 2013 server with plans to migrate from my current Exchange 2007 Server. 
    I installed Exchange 2013 SP1 and the only errors I saw in the event log seemed to be long standing known issues that did not indicate an actual problem (based on what I read online). 
    I updated to CU7 and now lots of errors have appeared (although the old ones seem to have been fixed so I have that going for me). 
    Currently the Exchange 2013 server is not in use and clients are still hitting the 2007 server.
    Issue 1)
    After each reboot I get a Kernel-EventTracing 2 error.  I cannot find anything on this on the internet so I have no idea what it is.
    Session "FastDocTracingSession" failed to start with the following error: 0xC0000035
    I did read other accounts of this error with a different name in the quotes but still can’t tell what this is or where it is coming from.
    Issue 2)
    I am still getting 5 MSExchange Common 106 errors even after reregistering all of the perf counters per this page:
    https://support.microsoft.com/kb/2870416?wa=wsignin1.0
    One of the perf counters fails to register using the script from the link above.

    Issue 3)
    I appear to have some issues related to the healthmailboxes. 
    I get MSExchangeTransport 1025 errors for multiple healthmailboxes.
    SMTP rejected a (P1) mail from 'HealthMailbox23b10b91745648819139ee691dc97eb6@<my domain>.local' with 'Client Proxy <my server>' connector and the user authenticated as 'HealthMailbox23b10b91745648819139ee691dc97eb6'. The Active Directory
    lookup for the sender address returned validation errors. Microsoft.Exchange.Data.ProviderError
    I reran setup /prepareAD to try and remedy this but I am still getting some.
    Issue 4)
    I am getting an MSExchange RBAC 74 error. 
    (Process w3wp.exe, PID 984) Connection leak detected for key <my domain>.local/Admins/Administrator in Microsoft.Exchange.Configuration.Authorization.WSManBudgetManager class. Leaked Value 1.
    Issue 5)
    I am getting MSExchange Assistants 9042 warnings on both databases.
    Service MSExchangeMailboxAssistants. Probe Time Based Assistant for database Database02 (c83dbd91-7cc4-4412-912e-1b87ca6eb0ab) is exiting a work cycle. No mailboxes were successfully processed. 2 mailboxes were skipped due to errors. 0 mailboxes were
    skipped due to failure to open a store session. 0 mailboxes were retried. There are 0 mailboxes in this database remaining to be processed.
    Some research suggested this may be related to deleted mailboxes however I have never had any actual user mailboxes on this server. 
    If they are healthmailboxes or arbitration mailboxes that might make sense but I am unsure of what to do on this.
    Issue 6)
    At boot I am getting an MSExchange ActiveSync warning 1033
    The setting SupportedIPMTypes in the Web.Config file was missing.

    I don't know why but this forum is removing some of my spacing that would make parts of this easier to read.

    Hi Eric
    Yes I have uninstalled and reinstalled Exchange 2013 CU7 for the 3<sup>rd</sup> time. 
    I realize you said one issue per forum thread but since I already started this thread with many issues I will at least post what I have discovered on them in case someone finds their way here from a web search.
    I have an existing Exchange 2007 server in the environment so I am unable to create email address policies that are defined by “recipient container”. 
    If I try and do so I get “You can't specify the recipient container because legacy servers are detected.”
     So I cannot create a normal email address policy and restrict it to an OU without resorting to some fancy filtering. 
    Instead what I have done is use PS to modify extensionAttribute1 (otherwise known as Custom Attribute 1 to exchange) for all of my users. 
    I then applied an address policy to them and gave it the highest priority. 
    Then I set a default email address policy for the entire organization. 
    After reinstalling Exchange all of my system mailboxes were created with the internal domain name. 
    So issue number 3 above has not come up. 
    For issue number one above I have created a new thread:
    https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/office/en-US/7eb12b89-ae9b-46b2-bd34-e50cd52a4c15/microsoftwindowskerneleventtracing-error-2-happens-twice-at-boot-ex2013cu7?forum=exchangesvrdeploy
    For issue number four I have posted to this existing thread where there is so far no resolution:
    https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/exchange/en-US/2343730c-7303-4067-ae1a-b106cffc3583/exchange-error-id-74-connection-leak-detected-for-key?forum=exchangesvradmin
    Issue number Five I have managed to recreate and get rid of in more than one way. 
    If I create a new database in ECP and set the database and log paths where I want, then this error will appear. 
    If I create the database in the default location and then use EMS to move it and set the log path, then the error will not appear. 
    The error will also appear (along with other errors) if I delete the health mailboxes and let them get recreated by restarting the server or the Health Manager service. 
    If I then go and set the retention period for deleted mailboxes to 0 days and wait a little while, these will all go away. 
    So my off hand guess is that these are caused by orphaned system mailboxes.
    For issue number six I have posted to this existing thread where there is so far no resolution:
    https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/exchange/en-US/dff62411-fad8-4d0c-9bdb-037374644845/event-1033-msexchangeactivesync-warning?forum=exchangesvrmobility
    So for the remainder of this thread we can try and tackle issue number two which is the perf counters. 
    The exact same 5 perf counter were coming up and this had been true each time I have uninstalled and reinstalled Exchange 2013CU7. 
    Actually to be more accurate a LOT of perf counter errors come up after the initial install, but reloading the perf counters using the script I posted above reduces it to the same five. 
    Using all of your suggestions so far has not removed these 5 remaining errors either.  Since there is no discernible impact other than these errors at boot I am not seriously bothered by them but as will all event log errors, I would prefer
    to make them go away if possible.
