I’m primarily focused on Microsoft related services and software, with a wide foundation around IT infrastructures, security, automation and troubleshooting.

Seems the cause for these errors, are because SMBv2 introduces status caching into the LanManWorkstation service…read more at SMB2 Client Redirector Cache

So to fix it I’ve added these registry keys under :

HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Lanmanworkstation\Parameters 
FileInfoCacheLifetime [DWORD] = 0 
FileNotFoundCacheLifetime [DWORD] = 0 
DirectoryCacheLifetime [DWORD] = 0

My errors on the server were:

Event ID : 2147 Raw Event ID : 2147 Source : MSExchangeRepl Type : Error Machine : SERVER Message : There was a problem with 'ActiveNode', which is an alternate name for 'ActiveNode'. The list of aliases is now 'ActiveNode', and the alias 'was' removed from the list. The specific problem is 'CreateFile([\\ActiveNodeStorageGroupGuid$LogFile.log](///)) = 2'.
ID:       2127 Level:     Information Provider: MSExchangeRepl Machine:  SERVER Message:  The system has detected a change in the available replication networks.  The system is now using network 'ActiveNode' instead of network 'ActiveNode' for log copying from node ActiveNode.

Thanks a lot for JR on sharing this, check out Tim McMichael with more info on this:
