Exch2010sp1 DAG DBs move when Backup is running

SSN
Level 2

Hello!

When I start a Backup of the Informationstore my two active Mailbox DBs are moved to one MBX Server.

My enviroment:

All Server win2k8R2

2x Exch2k10sp1 CAS/HT

2x Exch2k10sp1 MBX with 2 active DBs and 2 inactive DB copys (Activation Preference set)

1x BackupExec 2010R2

svc_backup= Domain Admin = AD user for BackupExec.

The backup job ist a full backup. Without backup the DAG works correct.

 

The Informationstore backup is successful at all time successful.

Some events that occurs by the backup proccess from the MBX Server:

Description:

Cluster node 'ATMSX04' was removed from the active failover cluster membership. The Cluster service on this node may have stopped. This could also be due to the node having lost communication with other active nodes in the failover cluster. Run the Validate a Configuration wizard to check your network configuration. If the condition persists, check for hardware or software errors related to the network adapters on this node. Also check for failures in any other network components to which the node is connected such as hubs, switches, or bridges.

How can I stop the move behavior.

The solution was: disable Advanced Open File and configure a preferred server list.

However I have always set to backup only the informationstore.

To check whether the backup account has the proper role assignments you can run the following from the 2010 Exchange Powershell.

Get-Mailbox {username} | ft name,roleassignmentpolicy

To change it if it is not set run

Get-Mailbox {username} | Set-Mailbox –RoleAssignmentPolicy “Default Role Assignment Policy”
