Subject: RE: dag issue?

Do you know if there is a way to have a two node multisite Dag that cannot 
failover unless I want to. I don't mean -Activateonly where the DB on the 
remote site cannot come up, I mean where the primary node can have its witness 
get rebooted or itself and the DBs in the Primary will always come up with out 
the remote node stealing quorum?

Paul.

This does sound like what happened, I was a bit surprised as I only had one 
test DB in the Dag, I didn't expect it to effect all databases.

Would you still go with having DAC mode on?

As a first point of call I would look at increasing the cluster timeout 
settings. I've heard similar things about Veeam before during backup - mainly 
nodes failing over and IIRC there is some threads on the Veeam Community site

I think from going through the logs that possibly the remote site node got

had rebooted the remote server the primary would of got quorum again and 
allowed me to mount databases?

Any thoughts on this as I need to be able to reboot the primary server if 
needed without the databases not being able to mount. I don't mind my failover 
being completely a manual process.

What do you think on what happened and a solution to my problem?

Huh. I've been using this in Win 2012. Didn't realize it was available in Win 
2008 R2.

Be aware: if you use this in a DAG situation, you then become responsible for 
all quorum management issues.

Thanks for your reply. I've ordered the Exchange Server 2010 Inside Out

Something which I'll be needing for my work.

Exchange Server 2010 Best Practices - Siegfried Jagott  Joel Stidley - If you

Correct, as it says: Give the Migrator Account permissions which is what the 
part that follows it does.

Which ps console are you using, and where? You need Get-ExchangeServer...

Also, check what (Get-User -Identity [UserName] | select-object).identity

RE: PS Question

2012-05-30 Thread Kelsey, John
The Exchange PS on the Exchange server directly.

When I run the command with the specified account:

Add-ADPermission -Identity (Get-ExchangeServer).DistinguishedName -User 
(Get-User -Identity Migrator | select-object).identity -extendedRight 
ms-Exch-EPI-Impersonation

I get a 'cannot bind argument to parameter 'Identity' because it is null.'

Running just (get-exchangeserver).distinguishedName   doesn't return anything, 
which I assume is why its null
Running just plain ol' (get-exchangeserver) returns both my mailbox server and 
my CAS.  So it doesn't like the distinguishedname parameter for some reason?

Thanks!!

It gives me the username and its recipient type of 'UserMailbox'.  That seems 
ok.

What does just:
 Get-User Migrator
return?

The Exchange PS on the Exchange server directly.

When I run the command with the specified account:

Add-ADPermission -Identity (Get-ExchangeServer).DistinguishedName -User 
(Get-User -Identity Migrator | select-object).identity -extendedRight 
ms-Exch-EPI-Impersonation

I get a 'cannot bind argument to parameter 'Identity' because it is null.'

Running just (get-exchangeserver).distinguishedName   doesn't return anything, 
which I assume is why its null
Running just plain ol' (get-exchangeserver) returns both my mailbox server and 
my CAS.  So it doesn't like the distinguishedname parameter for some reason?

Thanks!!

Correct, as it says: Give the Migrator Account permissions which is what the 
part that follows it does.

Which ps console are you using, and where? You need Get-ExchangeServer...

Also, check what (Get-User -Identity [UserName] | select-object).identity 
returns, maybe even Get-User -Identity account etc...

RE: PS Question

2012-05-30 Thread Kelsey, John
I think I got it.  There are 2 CAS servers, so I had to do this.

$CAS = get-exchangeserver | where { $_.ServerRole -match ClientAccess }
$CAS | foreach-object {Add-ADPermission -Identity $_.DistinguishedName -User 
(Get-User -Identity Migrator | select-object).identity -extendedRights 
ms-Exch-EPI-Impersonation}

Looks good now!

I thank you good sir!
