ESEUTIL - Corrupted Exchange 2000 Databse will not mount.

Asked by clintsjones in Exchange Email Server

Tags: eseutil, error

I am trying to do repair on database in exchange 2000 - can never get eseutil to work keep getting jet database errors....

help                  /s<file> - set streaming file name (default: NONE)
                  /t<db>   - set temp. database name (default: TEMPINTEG*.EDB)
                  /f<name> - set prefix to use for name of report files
                             (default: <database>.integ.raw)
                  /i       - bypass the database and streaming file mismatch err
or
                  /o       - suppress logo
          NOTES:  1) Integrity-check does not run database recovery. If a
                     database is in a "Dirty Shutdown" state it is strongly
                     recommended that before proceeding with an integrity-
                     check, recovery is first run to properly complete
                     database operations for the previous shutdown.
                  2) The /i option ignores the signature mismatch error if
                     the database and streaming file do not match each other.
