Keep in mind that initializing the database forces you to delete session files from the disk staging device (FSD) manually. This reason for this is that with an initialized (ie. empty) database ARCserve no longer holds track of the sessions that need to be purged. This cannot be resolved by simply merging the FSD backup into the database.
I'm not sure whether Sp3 resolves corruption of the database yet, that's why I advise you to move to MSSQL
Had the same issue. Did not have my 11.5 key to install but had the 11.1 key. Preformed the 11.1 install on an XP SP2 box. Stopped the services(CSTOP)on the W2K3 SP1 AS 11.5 box. Renamed the DB folder to old_database. Copied the 11.1 DB folder over. Then fired up the services (CSTART)and worked like a champ!!!!
NOTE: Make sure you give the new instace of the AS DB the same passwords as the DB thats corrupt.
