eseutil /g saying corrupt but it's not??

Hi all,

Brand spanking new edb and stm files with data freshly exmerged into them and when I run eseutil /g priv1.edb > privedb_PhysicalTest.txt I get the below error message???  Is the location of the files important?  I have copied these files to a separate drive after a "clean shutdown" (yes I did check to make sure the state of each file is "clean shutdown").  We are up and running great so I'm guessing i'm running it incorrectly... anyway... if someone could shed some light on this it would be much appreciated!  Thanks!

You ran this against the databases while they were offline? If so, can I see the command line syntax? Something doesn't look right....were the files in their default location when you checked them?
