I have just built a 2 node cluster with Exchange 2003 server. We have a 3 domain forest. One of the other domains has an Exchange cluster installed and it is up and running fine. When I try to bring the cluster resources online on the new cluster it fails. I can see the virtual server installed in the exchange organization but the resources won't come online. I enabled maximum logging on the server and I have found these errors. The exchange cluster that is up and running is at a different site, in a different domain. Source: MSExchangeMU ID: 1033 The default recipient policy cannot be found. SMTP virtual servers and HTTP-DAV virtual servers and virtual directories will not work properly Source:MSExchangeMU ID: 1040 Metabase Update failed replication 5 times with error 80070490 (Element not found.). Please change the diagnostic logging level of MSExchangeMU to 'minimum' or greater to find the source of the problem Source:MSExchangeSA ID: 1033 One of the System Attendant's task is blocked. Function: ScStartVM These cluster server have been rebuilt 3 times and were never a domain controller. Also verified the ASP.NET rootver is correct.
Does the cluster service account used has sufficient permission to read all the exchange information in the org? And, make sure you don't have any replication issue. -- This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.

I logged on as cluster admin rather than exchange admin and could not see any of the servers in the exchange organization under the system admin. I had delegated control to the cluster admin (full exchange admin). When I checked security tab on the server the cluster admin was listed but no rights were assigned. I gave it full control to eveything and replicated the forest and domains. I still can't see anything under exchange system admin but I will give it some time to see if the server and other items show up.
