Please see below a handy PowerShell Script which will give you a quick health check on your environment
The PowerShell Script will check the following
- That all Exchange Databases are Mounted
- Mapi Connectivity to all databases are working
- ActiveSync Connectivity to each CAS Server is working
- OWA Connectivity to each CAS server is working
- Mailflow to Each Database is working
- Main CAS Server Ports are open and working
- IMAP is working
- POP3 is working
- All Exchange Services are Started
Please note the test port function in the script is from the following http://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/scriptcenter/97119ed6-6fb2-446d-98d8-32d823867131
The Script will give an output like below
At a later date i will be blogging another PS1 script which will give a more verbose output.
Please save the below to a .PS1 file and run from the Exchange Management Shell.

function Test-Port{
<#
.SYNOPSIS
Tests port on computer.
.DESCRIPTION
Tests port on computer.
.PARAMETER computer
Name of server to test the port connection on.
.PARAMETER port
Port to test
.PARAMETER tcp
Use tcp port
.PARAMETER udp
Use udp port
.PARAMETER UDPTimeOut
Sets a timeout for UDP port query. (In milliseconds, Default is 1000)
.PARAMETER TCPTimeOut
Sets a timeout for TCP port query. (In milliseconds, Default is 1000)
To Do:
Add capability to run background jobs for each host to shorten the time to scan.
.EXAMPLE
Test-Port -computer ‘server’ -port 80
Checks port 80 on server ‘server’ to see if it is listening
.EXAMPLE
‘server’ | Test-Port -port 80
Checks port 80 on server ‘server’ to see if it is listening
.EXAMPLE
Test-Port -computer @(“server1″,”server2″) -port 80
Checks port 80 on server1 and server2 to see if it is listening
.EXAMPLE
Test-Port -comp dc1 -port 17 -udp -UDPtimeout 10000
Server : dc1
Port : 17
TypePort : UDP
Open : True
Description
———–
Queries port 17 (qotd) on the UDP port and returns whether port is open or not
.EXAMPLE
@(“server1″,”server2″) | Test-Port -port 80
Checks port 80 on server1 and server2 to see if it is listening
.EXAMPLE
(Get-Content hosts.txt) | Test-Port -port 80
Checks port 80 on servers in host file to see if it is listening
.EXAMPLE
Test-Port -computer (Get-Content hosts.txt) -port 80
Checks port 80 on servers in host file to see if it is listening
.EXAMPLE
Test-Port -computer (Get-Content hosts.txt) -port @(1..59)
Checks a range of ports from 1-59 on all servers in the hosts.txt file
