Microsoft Exchange Server and
Blackberry Enterprise Server news, views and fixes.
Spent most of the
week dealing with a flapping DAG database - flipping between two servers, which
turned out to be a bad network cable.
Anyway, while trying
to get the databases to activate correctly during troubleshooting I hit this
lovely error (real server name/database changed).
Error: Mailbox
Database 1
An Active Manager
operation failed. Error: The database action failed. Error: Move for database
'Mailbox Database 1’ was suppressed because too many moves have happened
recently. 3 moves have happened within 01:00:00. [Database: 'Mailbox Database
1', Server: exch1.example.com]
Basically tried to
activate a database three times in a hour and Exchange stops it from happening
again.
Off to PowerShell
and skip the checks:
Move-ActiveMailboxDatabase
-Identity "Mailbox Database 1" -SkipMoveSuppressionChecks
-ActivateOnServer exch1.example.com
Fixed
