There is no workaround, you need to have unique name.

Hi I'm building two Exchange 2019 servers to replace our Exchange 2013 servers, which were built by a consultant years ago.  I am at the stage where I am creating the mailbox databases and the Exchange 2019 DAG.  
In our existing setup, there are two Exchange 2013 servers in a DAG and the database names on both servers are the same.  I would like to keep the database names the same on the two new Exchange 2019 servers but when creating the databases on the second server I am getting 
Multiple databases match "MDB01". Specify a unique value.
I'm not sure how the consultant got around this when building the Exchange 2013 servers and would welcome some advise.

How to create db&#39;s of the same name on two Exchange servers


Hi I&#39;m building two Exchange 2019 servers to replace our Exchange 2013 servers, which were built by a consultant years ago.  I am at the stage where I am creating the mailbox databases and the Exchange 2019 DAG.  
In our existing setup, there are two Exchange 2013 servers in a DAG and the database names on both servers are the same.  I would like to keep the database names the same on the two new Exchange 2019 servers but when creating the databases on the second server I am getting 
Multiple databases match &quot;MDB01&quot;. Specify a unique value.
I&#39;m not sure how the consultant got around this when building the Exchange 2013 servers and would welcome some advise.
