Exchange 2010 servers constantly showing Event ID 1069 and 1558.

If you are getting events 1558 and 1069 stating “The cluster service detected a problem with the witness resource” every 15 minutes, there is now an official fix from Microsoft. I noticed an issue like this at a previous client who had a 6 node Exchange 2010 fail over cluster with 1 file share witness.
