Exchange 2016 - Event ID 2 - RestDeepTestProbe/MSExchangeRestAppPool

Copper Contributor

Hi,

i'm troubleshooting a problem on our exchange server 2016 infrastructure (two servers in two different domains; so not related to each other in any way).

On both servers the CU 2021-04 is currently installed on these servers.

The problem occurs since the exchange servers have been setup (~6 and 9 month ago), the error occurs every 2-5 minutes.

The problem which occurs is logged in the Event-Manager within "Windows\Exchange\ActiveMonitoring\ProbeResult" und only logs the error "Probe result (Name=RestDeepTestProbe/MSExchangeRestAppPool)".

Because the error was not very helpful i digged a bit into it (thanks to this website this was not so hard:
https://www.codetwo.com/admins-blog/managed-availability-in-exchange-2013/)
And so i was able to pull out these information from the deep of the event viewer:

By troubleshooting some other errors on the exchange server, these are the steps i already tried to fix the error:

  • recycle the application "MSExchangeRestAppPool" in IIS
  • remove all monitoring mailboxes on the exchange server and recreate them
  • uninstall the „Exchange Web Services Managed API“

I cannot find any further information, which memory limit is set, how can i increase it or any other information, how to get this problem fixed.

Thanks for any help
