Moving a Storage Group and Database in a CCR environment   
Summary:
I'm trying to establish a CCR cluster and need to move the default storage 
group and database to a new location on a Dell/EMC SAN. The active node is 
installed, the passive node is not. I found the following article 
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa997196(printer).aspx. Looks 
pretty straight forward, however, I'm having issues with the command syntax.

Move-StorageGroupPath -Identity:<Server\StorageGroupName> 
-LogFolderPath:<FullPathforLogFiles> 
-SystemFolderPath:<FullPathforSystemFiles> -ConfigurationOnly:$true

The error I'm getting is with the Identity. What should I be using for the  
StorageGroupName?Summary:

The error I'm getting is with the Identity. It says something to the effect 
of "The operation could not be performed because the object could not be 
found on the domain controller". What should I be using for the  
StorageGroupName?

Thanks in advance.

Re: Moving a Storage Group and Database in a CCR environment   
If the Storage Group name is unique in the Forest, e.g. SERVER1-SG1, you can 
simply use SERVER1-SG1. If not, add the server name, for example:

Move-StorageGroupPath "SERVER1\First Storage Group" -LogFolderPath 
"E:\Logs" -SystemFolerPath "E:\Logs"

Re: Moving a Storage Group and Database in a CCR environment   
you can use get-storagegroup  to identifiy your SG 
then use Move-StorageGroupPath

Re: Moving a Storage Group and Database in a CCR environment   
Thanks for your assistance. I'm now getting the following error:

WARNING: The Microsoft Exchange Replication Service has not responded to the
suspend request in 5 seconds. The service may not be running. Press CTRL-C to
stop waiting for the service to respond, or alternatively, wait another 5
seconds before the operation times out.
Suspend-StorageGroupCopy : The Microsoft Exchange Replication Service has 
not r
esponded to the suspend request in 10 seconds. The ExecutionTimeout period has
elapsed. Operation exited without receiving a confirmation from the 
Microsoft E
xchange Replication Service. The service may not be running. 
Get-StorageGroupCo
pyStatus cmdlet will show updated status when the service completes the 
suspend
 request. Resume-StorageGroupCopy will clear the request.

When I run Get-StorageGroupCopy it tells me the storage group is 
"initializing".

When I try to suspend the storage group, I get the same error. I'm not sure 
where to go from here? Any help is greatly appreciated.
