Activating a mailbox database copy is the process of designating a specific passive copy as a new active copy of a mailbox database. We call this process a database switchover. The database switchover process is to dismount the current active database and then mount the corresponding database copy as a new active mailbox database copy on the specified server. The database copy that becomes the active mailbox database must be the most recent copy that will work correctly.
1) using the graphical interface
2. Use the shell to move the active mailbox database
This example activates a copy of the database DB4 hosted on MBX3 and mounts it as a new active mailbox database. This command sets DB4 to the new active mailbox database and does not replace the database mount dialing settings on MBX3.
Move-ActiveMailboxDatabase DB4 -ActivateOnServer MBX3 -MountDialOverride:None
This example performs a switchover operation of the database DB2 to the mailbox server MBX1. When this command is complete, MBX1 hosts the active copy of the DB2. Because the Mountdialoverride parameter is set to None, MBX1 will mount the database using its own defined database auto-mount dial-in Settings.
Move-ActiveMailboxDatabase DB2 -ActivateOnServer MBX1 -MountDialOverride:None
This example performs a switchover operation of the database DB1 to the mailbox server MBX3. When this command is complete, MBX3 hosts the active copy of the DB1. Because a value good availability is specified for the mountdialoverride parameter, MBX3 uses the database to automatically mount dial settings goodavailability mount the database.
Move-ActiveMailboxDatabase DB1 -ActivateOnServer MBX3 -MountDialOverride:GoodAvailability
This example performs a switchover operation of the database DB3 to the mailbox server MBX4. When this command is complete, MBX4 hosts the active copy of the DB3. Because the Mountdialoverride parameter is not specified, MBX4 uses the database to automatically mount dial settings Lossless mount the database.
Move-ActiveMailboxDatabase DB3 -ActivateOnServer MBX4
This example performs a server switchover to the mailbox server MBX1. All active mailbox database copies on MBX1 are activated on one or more other mailbox servers using a healthy copy of the active database on MBX1.
Move-ActiveMailboxDatabase -Server MBX1
This example switches the database DB4 to mailbox server MBX5. In this example, the replay queue for the database copy on MBX5 is greater than 6. Therefore, you must specify the Skiplagchecks parameter to activate the database copy on the MBX5.
Move-ActiveMailboxDatabase DB4 MBX5 -SkipLagChecks
This example switches the database DB5 to mailbox server MBX6. In this example, the Contentindexstate value of the database copy on MBX6 is failed. Therefore, you must specify the Skipclientexperiencechecks parameter to activate the database copy on the MBX6.
Move-ActiveMailboxDatabase DB5 MBX6 -SkipClientExperienceChecks
