In Exchange 2013, it may become necessary to test the Mailbox Replication Service (MRS) against all members of a Database Availability Group (DAG). To do this, we can perform the following script:
#We obtain the member servers of the DAG
$Servers= ((Get-DatabaseAvailabilityGroupLAB-NAEX15-01).Servers).Name
#We perform a 'foreach' against each member
foreach($serverin$Serverz)
{
Write-Host-ForegroundColorGreen$server.Name
Test-MRSHealth-Identity$server-MonitoringContext:$TRUE
}
When we perform the above script, we should receive output like the following:
