Version: Exchange 2016
Environment: 6 servers / DAG

Hi everyone, we are facing a strange thing related to Powershell and Exchange.

Everything works fine, except one point : Powershell commands seem hung, but finally respond after some minutes.

Example: Get-DatabaseAvailabilityGroup, Test-ReplicationHealth

Results are OK, the only problem is the time it takes to receive answers.

What could cause such strange behavior ?

Thanks in advance for your help !!!

    Hi and thank you for your answer !

    Yes, they are on 2 different sites, but we don't have any issue between them.

    All servers are currently very under-used ( 10% CPU / 30% RAM/ 10% DISK).

    Is there any way to debug/log commands or find a way to identify what causes the delays ?

    Do you have multiple sites?
    What does Task Manager show on the servers? Is IIS using alot of CPU or RAM? Are the servers sized correctly?
