Recently, I was working on a case with pool-pairing with a unique twist. The import status for Conferencing Module was working, but for User Module was failing . Upon looking further, I noticed EVENT ID 4060 with the following text

So I decided to collect logs the built-in scenario HADR. The scenario HADR has the following components



    • BackupService

 

    • PowerShell

 

    • RtcDbSyncAgent

 

    • UserServices



Since the scenario included both BackupService and UserServices, I was optimistic that I would certainly nail-down the issue. However, the logs were not leading me to any solution. It was only providing the name of the sproc XdsQueryReplicaStatus . However, this sproc exists on the Front-End Server and the Back-End Servers, so I needed more information on which database to troubleshoot.

 

Next I decided to collect a memory dump using the command

 

ProcDump.exe -ma -e System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException LyncBackupService.exe

 

Upon investigation, I finally found that the sproc XdsQueryReplicaStatus was connecting to the Lync Back-end Server. Now that I know the issue was with SQL, it certainly seemed like a Permissions issue, and so I double-checked the permissions with permission in a working environment. But was unable to find anything within the permissions of the databases used by Skype for Business Server 2015.

 

Finally, I decided to check the permissions for System Databases, and found that in the failing scenario, GUEST login was removed from MSDB (system database).  So I decided to grant GUEST user the Connect permissions for MSDB database by running


[sourcecode language='sql' padlinenumbers='true']
USE msdb;
GRANT connect to Guest;
GO
[/sourcecode]

Next, since this was an update to the System Database, we restarted the SQL Services, and the issue was resolved.

Resource:

You should not disable the guest user in the msdb database in SQL Server

What does the status reported by Get-CsBackupServiceStatus mean?
