Unable to switchover databses in DAG
When I try to switch database in my DAG I get the following error
error
mail2k16.wienerrealtors.co m
Server "mail2k16.wienerrealtors.c om" is enabled for DatabaseCopyActivationDisa bledAndMov eNow. Moving databases to such servers may be ineffective because the system will automatically attempt to move again as soon as a healthy copy is detected.
error
mail2k16.wienerrealtors.co
Server "mail2k16.wienerrealtors.c
Is the database healthy? Why are you changing it? We need more information.
ASKER
The database is healthy I want to return to the primary server. I had place the primary in maintenance mode. I ran the commands to take it out of maintenance mode but now when I try to switch i get the error I posted
ASKER CERTIFIED SOLUTION

This solution is only available to members.
To access this solution, you must be a member of Experts Exchange.
Unless to turn off that parameter, exchange will try to reactivate database copy on same source server as being it has healthy database copy
assumption is you have total two database copies
assumption is you have total two database copies
You can set that property to false:
Set-MailboxServer "mail2k16.wienerrealtors.c om" -DatabaseCopyActivationDis abledAndMo veNow $false
This will then allow the DBs to become active on this server and remain active unless a failover or manually failover.
Set-MailboxServer "mail2k16.wienerrealtors.c
This will then allow the DBs to become active on this server and remain active unless a failover or manually failover.
