Determining the Microsoft Exchange Active Directory Topology Service Roles

Microsoft Exchange Active Directory Topology service lists identified domain controllers on the Exchange server properties page and identifies servers belonging to either of two groups:

Domain Controller Servers Being Used by Exchange—Domain controllers that have been identified by Microsoft Exchange Active Directory Topology service to be fully operational are shown here.

Global Catalog Servers Being Used by Exchange—Global catalog servers are shown here.

A third role was visible on the properties page in Exchange Server 2003; however, it is not in the same location in Exchange Server 2013. The third role is the following:

Configuration domain controller—A single AD domain controller is chosen as the configuration domain controller to reduce the problems associated with replication latency among AD domain controllers. In other words, if multiple domain controllers were chosen to act as the configuration domain controller, changes Exchange makes to the directory could conflict with each other. The configuration domain controller role is transferred to other local domain controllers in a site every 8 hours.

To determine the default configuration domain controller, view the Event Viewer application log and search for Event ID 2081. The results of the Microsoft Exchange Active Directory Topology service query are listed here as well, as shown in Figure 8.

In addition, the default configuration domain controller can be changed to one of your choice by performing the following steps:

1. Open the Exchange Management Shell.

2. Enter the command Get-ADServerSettings | fl. This shows the current default preferred domain controller (DefaultPreferredDomainController).

3. To change the preferred domain controller, enter the command Set-ADServerSettings –PreferredServer <server name>, as shown in Figure 9, to manually select the configuration domain controller.
