unable to fix content index failed

Exchange 2013 CU4

in one of my MB servers, i have three mailbox database where the content index is failed. i tried to recreate the index the usual way and it is still failed.

i then tried

Get-MailboxDatabaseCopyStatus * | where {$_.ContentIndexState -eq "Failed"} | Update-MailboxDatabaseCopy -CatalogOnly

but for all three databases i keep getting

WARNING: Seeding of content index catalog for database 'Mailbox01' failed. Please verify that the Microsoft
Search (Exchange) and the Host Controller service for Exchange services are running and try the operation again.
Error: There was no endpoint listening at net.tcp://localhost:3863/Management/SeedingAgent-4AFFC464-A593-453C-BA1A-7F3F2E67374712/Single that could accept the message.
This is often caused by an incorrect address or SOAP action. See InnerException, if present, for more
details..

everything that i could search for always suggests that first command.

is there any other way to fix this?

note: the Search and Host Controller service are both running. i've even restarted them.

Hi,

Is the content of event log the same as the content in that event log? Please post the detailed event log entry and check if there are any other related event logs.

And if the three mailbox databases are in DAG?

Please check the content state and the content index error message with the following command

Get-MailboxDatabaseCopyStatus -server | fl *index*

and the output of mailboxdatabase status:

although all databases are mounted as seen from ECP and are member of DAG.

i checked the link provided and that too i already have the group "ContentSubmitters" with the appropriate rights given to it.
