Exchange 2003 error 1041724

Hi

i refer to this:

Are you running it from the same server where your store resides ?

I have made a backup of the mdbdata, its sbs so only has one store and yes it runs from the same server

the link doesn't really apply, it is the correct eseutil version and no defrag was done on the server to cause this

The error you are getting suggests that you are running out of disk space:

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/294318

Is this the case?

Ah fair enough....


is there enough space free on the database disk? (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/294318)

try and read this:

http://www.mcse.ms/message706004.html

Relevant copy paste:
--------------------------------------------------------------------
If you have run an eseutil /p (hard repair), the next step is to defrag the

database with an eseutil /d.

You then need to clean out all files from the mdbdata directory except the

edb and stm files.

Thne mount the store.  Once mounted, dismount and run isinteg.

Eseutil /p assigns and new header to database leaving all existing log files

useless, then traverses the database and removes any pages it feels is

corrupted.  No guarantee on amount of data that will be recouped.

Eseutil /d MUST be run after a hardrepair (/p).  This process beyond the

defrag process, makes this database new.

Stores MUST be mounted and dismounted after eseutil has been run prior to

attempting an isinteg.

exchange database is in a dirty shutdown state also

This article is also potentially relevant:

No over 300 gig free disk space, exchange store is 6 gig. I am going to try the following detail from another post that worked for someone else

Ran the eseutil /p frorm the BIN folder and repaired both the priv1.edb and pub1.edb files.
Deleted the log and chk files.
Ran a defrag on the stores . eseutil /d
Ran isinteg (isinteg -s servername -fix -test alltests) frorm the bin folder.
Mounted the stores.

Does that mean you are up and running again?

let us know how it goes.

no it means I am trying the above tasks that worked for someone else : )

Have a look at this:

Okay - that should be fine.  It will take about 1 hour (4-6Gb per hour) to run eseutil.  So you have about a 2 hour wait.

When you run isinteg - run it as many times as it takes to see 0 errors and 0 fixes in the last line of the results.  Normally at least twice.

Rammestein - that's the third posting of the link you provided.  Please read the full thread before posting.  The previous postings were 1 minute apart which is a case of great minds thinking alike.  Yours is 22 minutes later!  Either you are a slow typer, or you need to refresh and read more often ;-)

:) sometimes we can all post a little too fast ;)

well im going home.. i will check in later how it went. :)

pair completed. Database corruption has been repaired!

te:
It is recommended that you immediately perform a full backup
of this database. If you restore a backup made before the
repair, the database will be rolled back to the state
it was in at the time of that backup.



eration completed successfully with 595 (JET_wrnDatabaseRepaired, Database cor
ption has been repaired) after 1758.188 seconds.

Good news.  You must have a fast server!!  Only took about 30 minutes.

Got the same result last time but the store still did not mount so its only the first task in the list.
I moved the .log and .chk files out of the mdbdata folder and am now running a defragment

No problems - sounds like you are making good progress.

Indeed. and yes, that was pretty fast! i remember sitting and waiting for 6 hours for it to complete :)

Oh I bet that was fun!  Us IT Guys know how to enjoy ourselves ;-)

hehe.. redbull is our best friend ;) we have datastores at nasty sizes. its not funny repairing exchange databases.. they are sooooooo slow! : - /

Excellent - hope you enjoyed that little exercise!
