DRAG DROP
You have an Exchange Server 2013 organization that contains three servers named EX1, EX2, and
EX3. The servers are members of a database availability group (DAG) named DAG1. A mailbox
database named DB1 is replicated to all the members of DAG1.
EX3 experiences a complete hardware failure.
You need to restore EX3 on a new server.
You reset the computer account for EX3.
Which three actions should you perform next?
To answer, move the three appropriate actions from the list of actions to the answer area and
arrange them in the correct order.
Note: Use Setup /m:RecoverServer to recover a server
Retrieve any replay lag or truncation lag settings for any mailbox database copies that exist on the
server being recovered by using the Get-MailboxDatabase cmdlet.
(Box 1) Remove any mailbox database copies that exist on the server being recovered by using
theRemove-MailboxDatabaseCopy cmdlet.
(Box 1) Remove the failed server’s configuration from the DAG by using the RemoveDatabaseAvailabilityGroupServer cmdlet.
Reset the server’s computer account in Active Directory. For detailed steps, see Reset a Computer
Account.
(Box 2) Open a Command Prompt window. Using the original Setup media, run the following
command.
Setup /m:RecoverServer
(Box 3) When the Setup recovery process is complete, add the recovered server to the DAG by using
the Add-DatabaseAvailabilityGroupServer cmdlet.
(Box 3) After the server has been added back to the DAG, you can reconfigure mailbox database
copies by using the Add-MailboxDatabaseCopy cmdlet.* You can recover a lost server by using the Setup /m:RecoverServer switch in Microsoft Exchange
Server 2013. Most of the settings for a computer running Exchange 2013 are stored in Active
Directory. The /m:RecoverServer switch rebuilds an Exchange server with the same name by using
the settings and other information stored in Active Directory.
