The Exchange Replication service in a CCR cluster crashes continually in an Exchange Server 2007 environment

SYMPTOMS

The Microsoft Exchange Replication service in a CCR cluster crashes continually when replication is resumed for a specific Exchange storage group. Additionally, the following event is logged in the Application log:
Event Type:        Information
Event Source:    MSExchangeRepl
Event Category:                Service 
Event ID:              2114
Date:                     2/12/2009
Time:                     5:20:00 PM
User:                     N/A
Computer:          <computer name>
Description:
The replication instance for storage group <Database name>\<Storage Group name > has started copying transaction log files. The first log file successfully copied was generation 1966393.

Note If you clean up the log files at the target storage group and then perform full reseed of the Exchange database, this still does not resolve this issue.

CAUSE

This issue occurs when you resume replay of the first log file of the Microsoft Exchange Replication service on the Exchange server.

RESOLUTION

To resolve this issue, create an Exchange database, and then move all the users from the existing Exchange database to the new Exchange database.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed in the "Applies to" section.

APPLIES TO
  • Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 Enterprise Edition
  • Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 Standard Edition
  • Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 Service Pack 1
