Hi,
Not sure if this should be posted here or in the SBS Forum so apologies if it's incorrectly posted.
Our client has SBS 2008 and are using Exchange 2007.
Yesterday a colleague needed to shutdown the server. On reboot the Exchange Database was showing as being in a "Dirty" state.
We tried using the ESEUTIL/ISINTEG utilities but to no avail.
Eventually we managed to get the system up and running by copying and then deleting the LOG files from C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\Mailbox\First Storage Group.
Once the log files were removed the system came up again.
So my question is do we need to keep the log files?
If so do they need to be replayed to commit to the database?
Thanks in advance.
Jason.
