I am setting up an Edge Pool with 2 Edge servers as members in it, and I launched Deployment Wizard and started “Step-2: Setup or Remove Skype for Business Server Components” on Edge-1 and faced the following issue:
Please check that the following machines are all running the same version of Windows Server:
FQDN: esg-s4bedg1.thetnaing.com Version: 6.3.9600
FQDN: esg-s4bedg2.thetnaing.com Version: Machine inaccessible
When I run the same Deployment Wizard Step- 2 on Edge-2 server, I faced the exact same issue.
FQDN: esg-s4bedg2.thetnaing.com Version: 6.3.9600
FQDN: esg-s4bedg1.thetnaing.com Version: Machine inaccessible
Both Edge-1 and Edge-2 are able to ping, resolve each other by IP as well as host name and FQDNs.
I found this issue/error message in particular is a very unique in nature that you don't really see this error message often, difficult to pin down the root cause and no cure for it.
Even when you Google-d this issue, you CANNOT find the concrete solution or write-up on how to solve this issue.
Please find an empirical solutio I applied to slove the issue at my TechNet Gallery - http://bit.ly/2mmJL0t
