The site contains three servers, two of which are running Exchange 2010 and both are DC's. The third server is only a witness server. The databases on one of the servers (named Primary5) fails to mount with the error:
--------------------------------------------------------
Microsoft Exchange Error
--------------------------------------------------------
Failed to mount database 'Mailbox Database 1580047370'.
Mailbox Database 1580047370

I have tired the following steps:
1. I can ping the DAG
2. Checked to make sure that replication services were running
3. Ran the following commands from the exchange shell:
[PS] C:\Windows\system32>Get-MailboxDatabaseCopyStatus
Name Status
CopyQueue ReplayQueue LastInspectedLogTime ContentIndex
Length Length State

[PS] C:\Windows\system32>Get-MailboxDatabaseCopyStatus | ?{$_.ContentIndexState -eq "Failed"} | Update-MailboxDatabaseCo
py -CatalogOnly
Database "Mailbox Database 1580047370\PRIMARY5" has only one copy. This task is supported only for databases that have
more than one copy.
Not at all sure what to try next.
Thank you for any assistance you can give me.
