Hi

When I added a copy of the exchange database, I was prompted that the network path could not be found. There are three servers in the current DAG mode, namely EXH01,EXH02 and EXH03. There is no problem in adding database copies to EXH01 and EXH02, but EXH03 fails to be replaced and the network path cannot be found.

Hi @ Tony Mu ,

Check if the remote registry service of EXH03 is running:

  1. Open service.msc
  2. Locate Remote Registry and view the status

If the service is stopped, I recommend that you set its startup type to Automatic and start. Then add the database copy again to see if that works.

For details, please refer to this document: Running Update cmdlet fails - Exchange | Microsoft Learn

You can also try to have a check in event viewer, whether there exists any error logs about it.

    It seems DNS resolver issue. Try to fix DNS entries and resolve the Exh03 name with Hostname.

    quick fix:

    Add host entry for EXH03 on EXH02 and EXH01 Host file with IP will help.
