Mailboxes active in two different DAG members

Hi,

In troubleshooting some issues with a 2007-2013 migration (we are now in co-existence).  I see the following (I truncated the mailbox lists):

[PS] C:\scripts>get-mailbox -filter {servername -eq "EX03"}

Name                      Alias                ServerName       ProhibitSendQuota

----                             -----                ----------       -----------------

Todd Bowles        tbowles           ex03                    Unlimited

.

[PS] C:\scripts>get-mailbox -filter {servername -eq "EX04"}

Name                      Alias                ServerName       ProhibitSendQuota

----                            -----                ----------             -----------------

Matt Smith        msmith              ex04                    3.6 GB (3,865,470,976 bytes)

The issue is that EX03 holds the mounted copy of the database.  Shouldn't EX04 not have any mailboxes listed as it holds the standby database in the DAG?

The issue I was trying to troubleshoot is that there don't seem to be any organizational mailboxes in the 2013 environment.  get-mailbox -Arbitration returns nothing.  Could these have been deleted when I deleted the default database?

Thank you,

Kurt

Actually - found the solution  - apparently this is by design:
