Hi,
Ive been dealing with an issue with Exchange 2010 SP2 RU4 installed On-Premise. Exchange has been deployed with separate HT, CAS and MBX servers. With 4 Mailbox servers in a single DAG spread across two sites.
Search indexing appears to be taking an extremely long time. Sometimes up to days before the result is visible in a search result.
I have attempted to Reset the search index using ResetSearchIndex.ps1. Ive reseeded the catalog on the DAG.
When running Test-Exchange search i get the following verbose output;
[PS] C:\Windows\system32>Test-ExchangeSearch -Identity james.rogers@email.net -Verbose

There are no logs in the Eventlog regarding issues with the Indexing of the server. I have tried the Test-ExchangeSearch with indextimeout of 10800 seconds. Still same error.
Any ideas? Thanks in Advance.
