[cisco-voip] DB Layer pointed to wrong DB

[Brian Henry]

Thanks for the response Wes,
 
I am going to remove 2 servers from the cluster totally for which the registry entries do not match up with the Pub and one of the subscribers.
 
On another note have you ever seen where the CAPF service is in the Windows NT service, its also seen in service parameters to change values for, however does not show up under "Service Activation" where all the other services are?
 
Thanks
 
Brian

The DBL process on all servers in the cluster attempts to connect to the publisher for SQL database connectivity.  The publisher is also known as 'dbconnection0'.  There are a few reasons for DBL not connecting to the publisher:

1. Windows RPC failures - check your windows event viewer system log for errors
2. firewalls/acl's - RPC uses random ephemeral ports to initiate TCP sessions between servers.  You must open the extended ephemeral range of TCP ports between all CM servers
3. misconfiguration - check the dbconnectionX entries in the registry of each server under hklm\software\cisco systems, inc.\dbl
it should be in the order:
0 - publisher
1 - local server
2,3,etc - other servers in cluster.  These really do not matter.  0 and 1 are the most critical.

If those are incorrect then your database contains incorrect information and TAC will need to take a look.

	What are the SQL commands to Check the database.
