I'm not aware of a single command to find this out, but using the following you can figure out what's going on:get-mailboxserver - you'll quickly see if you are in a clustered environment by looking at "ClusteredStorageType". Disabled = no cluster, shared = SCC, nonshared= CCR (not sure if LCR or SCR appear as nonshared).get-storagegroup - look at "Replicated", or pipe to fl (get-storagegroup <name> |fl) and look at "StandbyMachines" for SCR targets.Hope this helps.-alex

Running ExBPA might help. Open Exchange Management Console --> Toolbox -->ExBPA--> Run a health check. Look at the information tab.-V

Since you have confirmed thats a clustering environment, then its either CCR or SCC
You can use Get-MailboxServer <CMSName> | fl Name, ClusteredStorageType in the Exchange Management Shell to determine if a clustered mailbox server is hosted in a CCR environment or in an SCC. A value of NonShared indicates that the clustered mailbox server is in a CCR environment, and a value of Shared indicates that the clustered mailbox server is in an SCC
-------------Refer to < High Availability>
As for the SCR, please follow the method in this article to verify if it has been enabled
