I'm hoping this is now resolved by removing all the databases and 
removing/adding the server back to the DAG. I didn't need to re-seed - all 
databases are showing as Healthy again, after a period of re-syncing the 
changes. I guess this was because the EDB and all log files were intact, and 
Exchange was nice and clever.

I'd still like to know how I could have removed the rogue IP address from the 
cluster network.

Thanks,

Richard

Thanks MBS, but can you elaborate on that? What do I remove and from where in 
EMC?

Remove all IP addresses. Add them back.

Use EMC, not FCM.

Subject: [Exchange] Heeelp - Exchange server networking in DAG

All,

Need some help, gah. I'm going through a patching cycle of SP3+RU2 and, as well 
as that, upgrading the NIC drivers amongst some other firmware on the hardware.

On the first mailbox server I've done, after following HP advice, I've 
dissolved the NIC team, run the software upgrades, then put the team back 
together. I don't think the NIC team used the same name, although that's now 
been corrected.

Unfortunately this server is no longer part of its DAG, that is, it is a DAG 
member but not operational. It seems to be very confused about the network. In 
the EMC, it has an IPv6 address listed as DOWN, where all the other servers 
have an IPv4 address listed as UP. In Failover Cluster Manager, the server is 
DOWN. The cluster service is also crashing repeatedly.

I appreciate this is very sparse information, but is there anything I can do to 
reset the DAG network info on this server without resorting to ripping out all 
its databases and starting again? The databases it does have all list as 
Healthy copies.

Any other specific information available on request.

Thanks,

Richard
