Process %1: Configuration information for the current forest could not be found in Active Directory. To find the root cause of this error, increase the diagnostic logging level of the MSExchange Availability service.

Explanation

This Warning event indicates that Exchange ActiveSync has temporarily detected a connection problem between the computer that is running the Mailbox server role and the computer that is running the Client Access server role. Exchange ActiveSync will retry Exchange ActiveSync operations between the Client Access server and the Mailbox server.

This event may be logged in the following conditions:

  • If there are network connectivity issues between the Mailbox server and the Client Access server.

  • If the Mailbox server is offline for any reason.

User Action

To resolve this event, consider the following:

  • If this event is infrequently logged, or only during scheduled downtime for a Mailbox server, no user action is required.

  • If this event frequently occurs, do one or more of the following:

    • Check network connectivity between the Mailbox server and the Client Access server. Use the Ping or PathPing command-line tools to test basic connectivity. Use Ping to isolate network hardware problems and incompatible configurations. Use PathPing to detect packet loss over multiple-hop trips. For more information, see Microsoft Knowledge Base article 325487, How to troubleshoot network connectivity problems.

    • Use the test-ActiveSyncConnectivity task. For information about how to use this command, see test-ActiveSyncConnectivity in the Exchange Server 2010 Help file.

    • Review the Application log on the Mailbox server to determine the root cause of the inability of the Client Access server to connect to the Mailbox server.
