Dear All,
I have a strange issue,we 3 Exchange 2013 mailbox server 2 in PR and 1 in DR,for testing the database health ,i activated one of the mailbox database in DR server to check if everything works fine,although i was able to successfully activate the database in DR and also connect to the mailbox in that database ,but when i tried to activate the database back to the primary site ,i am not able to do so i get the below error.
The seeding operation failed. Error: An error occurred while performing the seed operation. Error: A timeout occurred while communicating with server 'DRMBX'. Error: "A connection could not be completed within 15 seconds." [Database: DR-Drill-Testing, Server: PRMBX.lamprell.com]
i thought its happening because may be i activated the mailbox when the status was not healthy ,so i created a new database which has no mailbox ,when i tried the samething activating it in DR and again in PR i still get the same error.
i can see event id 1111 logged in which says
Automatic Reseed Manager failed to execute repair workflow 'FailedSuspendedCopyAutoReseed' for database 'DR-Drill-Testing'. Error: The Automatic Reseed Manager encountered an error: The automatic repair operation for database copy 'DR-Drill-Testing\PRMBX' will not be run because one of the prerequisite checks failed. Error: There are no Exchange volumes mounted under root path 'C:\ExchangeVolumes', which are required for the Automatic Reseed component.
please help me with this
