Answering my own question, set-adserversettings was indeed the trick -----Original Message----- From: Rick Berry [mailto:rbe...@elevativenetworks.com] Sent: Wednesday, November 02, 2011 12:19 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: exch2010 setup error, mbox role install fails
Never seen this before, mailbox role install fails while standing up a new exch2010 box in a 2003 environment ... DSID-03152395 is the pertinent part I suppose, the full error below ... Think it could just be a matter of just doing: Set-ADServerSettings -PreferredServer blah.blah.local ? Error: The following error was generated when "$error.Clear(); if (!$RoleIsDatacenter) { $arbUsers = @(get-user -Filter {lastname -eq "MSExchApproval 1f05a927-3be2-4fb9-aa03-b59fe3b56f4c"} -IgnoreDefaultScope -ResultSize 1); if ($arbUsers.Length -ne 0) { $mbxname = $arbUsers[0].name; $mbxs = @( get-mailbox -arbitration -Filter {name -eq $mbxname} -IgnoreDefaultScope -resultSize 1 ); if ( $mbxs.length -eq 0) { $dbs = @(get-MailboxDatabase -Server:$RoleFqdnOrName -DomainController $RoleDomainController); if ($dbs.Length -ne 0) { enable-mailbox -Arbitration -identity $arbUsers[0] -database $dbs[0].Identity; } } } } " was run: "Active Directory operation failed on blah.blah.local.
