Exchange 2007: Event ID 9589 Exceeded the max number of 6 Storage Groups on this server

Summary: Exchange 2007 fails to mount additional databases after you've created 5 Storage Groups. In additional, you get Event ID:9589 "Exceeded the max number of 6 Storage Groups on this server."

You have verified that your Exchange 2007 Edition is Enterprise in the EMC GUI.


Resolution:

Re-enter your product key in the Shell and restart your information store.

[PS] H:\>set-exchangeserver -identity dcex01 -productkey XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX
