DatabaseCopyActivationDisabledAndMoveNow issue

Hey all,

Some info first:

Two Exchange 2019 CU14 in a DAG on Server 2022

Two mailbox databases

I just installed the latest SU on the second server and when it came time to move the Active databases back I got this error:

Server "exchange1" is enabled for DatabaseCopyActivationDisabledAndMoveNow. Moving databases to such servers may be ineffective because the system will automatically attempt to move again as soon as a healthy copy is detected.

I thought I had already set that back to False so I checked:

Get-MailboxServer Exchange1 | Format-List DatabaseCopyActivationDisabledAndMoveNow

DatabaseCopyActivationDisabledAndMoveNow : False

I ran the command again to set it to False just in case, but I still get the same error when trying to move the databases.  The databases show as Healthy on Exchange1, and Exchange is functioning fine otherwise.

I cannot see anything obvious in the event logs.

Does anyone know what the issue might be?

thanks

Justin

 

EDIT: Bah! Nevermind, it took over a half hour but I was just able to move the databases back, and everything appears fine.
