SYMPTOMS
You use a HRESERestoreComplete function that uses the ESE_RESTORE_COMPLETE_ATTACH_DBS parameter to restore a Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 cluster database programmatically. When you do this, the cluster database is mounted successfully. However, the database resources are not brought online.

This issue occurs in &quot;single copy clusters&quot; (SCC) and &quot;cluster continuous replication&quot; (CCR) configurations in Exchange Server 2007.



CAUSE
This issue occurs because the HRESERestoreComplete function is not cluster-aware in Exchange Server 2007.



WORKAROUND
To work around this issue, do not use the ESE_RESTORE_COMPLETE_ATTACH_DBS parameter with the HRESERestoreComplete function. Instead, use the Mount-Database cmdlet in the Microsoft Windows PowerShell to mount the restored database after the restore operation is complete.

The Mount-Database cmdlet is cluster-aware. This cmdlet mounts the database, and it also brings the database resources online.
