Recovering Information Store and other data from old installation 1

[jakhan]

Dear Guys

I am in a big trouble !!!

I had Exchange 5.5 on our Server. Unfortunately we didn't have tape drive to backup the data. Today the NT Server crashed and I had to install everything from scratch including Exchange server.

Now the problem is.. HOW do i recover my lost data
I have old Exchange folder , which i have renamed as c:\Exchange.old, and the new installation is in c:\Exchange folder.

Please help me recovering the lost data

Thanks

Jak

I really hope you kept the same names for organisation, site and server.

Assuming you did, and you recall which service packs you were running (do them first), copy the priv.edb, pub.edb and dir.edb files into the new folder.

Run isinteg-patch (check the usage to specify the right paths for stuff).

Start the services.
