The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Backup Exec Fails on Exchange 2003 with V-79-57344-33928 - Access is denied. Error

Asked by djmichaelmaxim in Exchange Email Server

Tags: backup, exec, access, denied

I have a Windows 2003 environment with Exchange 2003 SP2 running. Last Friday our backups started failed because Backup Exec encountered 5 mailboxes that appears to have corrupt items in them. I am not so sure that they are actually corrupt though.

Backup Exec's job log is indicating that ALL of the Contacts in each of the 5 mailboxes are corrupt and it can't gain access to them to back them up. Below is an example of the several hundred entries in the Backup Exec job log.

It appears that all of these contacts are "in use" at the same time. The job is running at night so no user is accessing all of these contacts at one time.

The only new variable is that we recently bought and installed a Shoretel VOIP phone system and installed the Call Manager software on the Exchange Server. All of the users who are listed in the job log as "failed" with the EXCEPTION of ONE, has the Call Manager software installed on their workstations. So it really doesn't point to the call manager as the culprit of this because there is one user who does not have it installed who is also getting flagged in the job log as having corrupt Contacts.

Any thoughts or insight on where to look or how to approach this?

I thought about doing an Offline Defrag on the Exchange database but was worried that if all of these contacts were corrupt, it would delete all the contact records in the database. That is something I don't want to do.
