App Insight for Exchange - Powershell to test " Database Backup"

david.speer

Hi All,

I have one database that is bugging us on only 1 node of the 3 node DAG.

I checked and the database directory looks normal, backups have completed etc.

It shows fine on the two passive copies, critical on this mounted copy. (Screenshot 1)

Storage guy gave me two thumbs up - the full and incremental backups have been golden.

When looking at the template the powershell isn't displayed.

Does anyone know the powershell i should use to interactively test this database copy on the mailserver in question? (Screenshot 2)

Thanks in advance!

Best Regards,

David

On the Mailbox database details page what is reported for the last full and incremental backup?

Interesting , It doesn't sound like this datapoint for last full matches what my storage admin indicated.

I'll bounce it off of him again and if it doesn't jive I'll go active on one of the passive copies.

Thanks for the tip, I'll update here when I hear back.

Looks like you nailed it.

The backup tool isn't properly updating the backup property for USDB20.

Had our storage admin take a full targeting USDB20\USMAIL02 instead of a passive copy.

Once it successfully completed all is well with the world.

Thanks again ">aLTeReGo
