SYMPTOMS
When you run the Test-ExchangeSearch cmdlet in the Exchange Management Shell in a Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 environment, the command fails if it runs against a remote server that is located in a different domain. For example, this problem occurs if you run the Test-ExchangeSearch cmdlet in domain A, and the name of the target server is ExServerB in Domain B of the same forest. This is demonstrated in the following command.
Test-ExchangeSearch -server ExServerB.domainB ExServerB.domainB is the FQDN of ExServerB.
Additionally, you receive the following error message:
CAUSE
This problem occurs because the Test-ExchangeSearch cmdlet uses the unqualified short name of the server to query the content indexing server.
