It sounds like the databases might need to be reseeded. First, though, get the statistics on one of the storage groups using this command: Get-StorageGroupCopyStatus CMS-Server-Name\StorageGroupNameSome things I would look for here include: Are notifications being received? Are logs being copied to the passive node? Are the logs being committed? For reseeding, this article should help:http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb124706.aspxJim McBee - Blog - http://mostlyexchange.blogspot.com

Sorry, I meant to ask you to pipe that to the Format-List cmdlet so that you could get more details. Like this:Get-StorageGroupCopyStatus ccrmailbox\"fourth storage group" | Format-ListHowever, I think they key is that the logs are never actually getting copied to the CCR target. You notice that the CopyQueueLength is 39069. Take a look in the Event Log also (on both the active and passive logs) to see if there is anything related to this. I'm wondering if the share from which the passive node copies the logs is messed up or something.Can you try to re-seed one of these databases and see if clears up for that database?Jim McBee - Blog - http://mostlyexchange.blogspot.com

Jim I want to tell you one " A HEARTLY THANKS FOR YOUR KIND SUPPORT"As per your given link follow below steps To use the Update Storage Group Copy wizard to seed the passive node 1. Open the Exchange Management Console on the passive node. 2. Expand Server Configuration, and then select Mailbox. 3. In the result pane, select the Mailbox server that contains the storage group that you want to update. 4. In the work pane, right-click the storage group to be updated, and then select Update Storage Group Copy. The Update Storage Group Copy Wizard appears. 5. Verify that the correct storage group is listed in the Storage group name field. If the wrong storage group was selected, click Cancel, exit the wizard, and select the correct storage group. If there are any existing log files in the passive copy of the storage group that are not viable or needed for log replay after seeding has completed, select the Delete any existing log files in the target path check box. Click Next to continue. 6. Click Update to seed the passive node with the database copy. Note: During the update process, you will be prompted to delete any obsolete checkpoint files that are found in the passive copy of the storage group, and any existing database file that is found in the passive copy of the storage group. 7. After seeding has completed, click Finish to exit the wizard.After performin this steps my all databases are in healthy statusThank you very much
