"Task Mount-Database throwing terminating exception" Error Occurs When You Try to Mount a Database

Applies to: Exchange Server 2010 SP3

Topic Last Modified: 2011-08-12

When you try to mount a database in Microsoft Exchange Server 2010, you may receive the following error message:

Task Mount-Database throwing terminating exception when processing record of index 0. Exception: System.InvalidOperationException: The database object MB11DB1' in Active Directory has been corrupted and is in an inconsistent state: The servers of the database are null.

If this error occurs, you can use database portability to resolve the problem.

How can I fix the problem?

To resolve this problem, use database portability to move an Exchange 2010 mailbox database between Exchange 2010 Mailbox servers in the same organization. For more information about how to do this, see Move a Mailbox Database Using Database Portability.
