Problem - Proxy component Inactive

Hi all,

In my environtment I have 2 Exchange servers in 1 DAG, some proxy services on EX02 have Inactive state, this is results of Get-ServerComponentState

I tried command : Set-ServerComponentState -Component AutoDiscoverProxy -Identity EX02 -Requester Functional -State Active
But it didn't work. How do I find out right requester for each Inactive proxy component on EX02 or should I run these commands too ?

Set-ServerComponentState -Component AutoDiscoverProxy -Identity EX02 -Requester Mainternance -State Active

Set-ServerComponentState -Component ServerWideOffline -Identity EX02 -Requester Mainternance -State Active

Set-ServerComponentState -Component ServerWideOffline -Identity EX02 -Requester Functional -State Active

Thanks for your helps.

You're only checking the ServerWideOffline component to see what the issue is.  Those both say active, so that;'s not the issue.

Try Running:

$scs = Get-ServerComponentState -Identity ex02 -Component AutodiscoverProxy

then check the local states.  Also you can check the Registry, you can find the details and the path below:

Also, that looks like its mostly client access stuff thats not running, you may wnat to check IIS and make sure everything is in order there.

Thank you very much Hinte,

I found requester that made these components Inactive

$scs = Get-ServerComponentState -Identity ex02 -Component AutodiscoverProxy
$scs.localstates

Functional                                           Active 3/20/2015 7:34:50 AM          AutodiscoverProxy

And I also find same in Registry, so I just need to run command "Set-ServerComponentState -Component MapiProxy -Identity ex02 -Requester HealthApi -State Active" to get them Active.

By the way, I checked all HealthMailboxxxx accounts and none of them are locked, Client Access Service on EX02 is running and what should I check with IIS to make sure everything is in order there ?
