This is an interesting one....

So I ran some message tracking from the EMC and when I tried to dig a bit deeper, I got the following message:

"Failed to connect to the Microsoft Exchange Transport Log Search service on computer..." "...Verify that the Microsoft Exchange Transport Log Search service is started on the target computer."

Very well... So browsing to my 2 hub transport servers I was surprised to see that no such service exists. I do however have this service on my CCR mailbox server.

Any suggestions???

Thanks,

This service should be available on both mailbox and hub/edge transport servers, so that sounds strange...

You might want to try to remove and then add the Hub Transport server role on these two servers again.

This is a production environment, im not sure that would be a feasible solution. Any other ideas? MSSupport?

So I contacted MS PS and here is the answer that I got:

At some point, I had installed the mailbox role on these two servers. I subsequently removed the mailbox role and left the HT/CAS roles on the servers. Apparently when you remove the mailbox role it takes with it the MSExchangeTransportLogSearch service. MS Solution? Remove and re-install the HT role...

Will try this tomorrow and post results.

I'm having the same issue and was wondering if you had to reconfigure your server after removing and reinstalling the HT role.  Did you lose any settings in the process?  Is this something you would recommend moving forward with or recommend against?  Thanks in advance for any insight you may be able to provide!

Get-MessageTrackingLog : Failed to connect to the Microsoft Exchange Transport Log Search service on computer "mycompany.mycompanyv2.com". Verify that a valid computer name was used and the Microsoft Exchange Transport Log Search service is started on the target computer. The error message is: Access is denied.At D:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\exchange2007\test.ps1:2 char:23+ get-messagetrackinglog <<<< -messagesubject test | export-csv 'D:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\exchange2007\Book1.csv'

// The following commands are needed to redirect the standard output.
// This means that it will be redirected to the Process.StandardOutput StreamReader.
procStartInfo.RedirectStandardOutput = true;
procStartInfo.UseShellExecute = false;
// Do not create the black window.
procStartInfo.CreateNoWindow = true;
// Now we create a process, assign its ProcessStartInfo and start it
System.Diagnostics.Process proc = new System.Diagnostics.Process();
proc.StartInfo = procStartInfo;
try
{
test = Environment.UserName + " - " + this.User.Identity.Name;
