Microsoft Exchange Information Store Database 'MDB13' copy on this server experienced a corrupted search catalog
We seem to get random occasions where a DB will failover to passive copy.
Please refer following article to fix indexing on DAG.

I would also suggest you to update to CU 15 which fixes most of the bugs.

This only works for databases with status of failed.
Please do the steps given on this article which will rebuild entire search index database, I know this article is not for DAG but this will work to rebuild entire search index database.

So why doesnt update-mailboxdatabasecopy -catalogonly work when its a DAG server?
update_mailboxdatabasecopy will copy catalogs from existing database.
and above stopping and renaming search folder will create entire new search index database from scratch.
if existing search database have issues then using update-mailboxdatabasecopy does not make any difference.

Found this in the application log for several databases. I see the fix is to reseed the index catalog.
Assume this is for the copy on the server that was switched off (i.e. the previously active)? Trouble is we've switched things back now. Should we have reseeded the original before switching back?
Or will the original DB coming up as passive mean the indexes are fixed anyway?
We're at CU11 (I know!). Is this fixed at all at later CU by any chance?
