Repair of priv1.edb Exchange 2003 eseutil

This concerns a similar situation to a question asked by libertyims on 12/8/2004

______________________
I have a Exchange Server Standard 2003 Sp-1 - running on a Windows 2003 Server Standard for some time now I have been getting errors trying to backup the information store....

This is what gets reported to Veritas log file...

Access denied to database Mailbox Store (EXCHANGE).
WARNING: "\\EXCHANGE\Microsoft Information Store\First Storage Group\Mailbox Store (EXCHANGE)" is a corrupt file.
This file cannot verify.
Database or database element is corrupt

I am getting ready to do an offline backup of the \mdbdata folder.  I have done this several times lately and have had to dismount the information store, and stop the ME Information Store service to unlock all the files for copying.

If the repair does not work, I am under the impression that I will be able to copy the \mdbdata folder from the backup and be back where I started.


Question 1

Am I correct about using the backup, if needed, to restore the present data and functionality I currently have after running the eseutil /p ?

Question 2

In addition to dismounting the mailbox store, do I need to stop the ME Information Store service before running the eseutil /p command.

Question 3

I only have 10g available on the drive where the priv1.edb and .stm files are located.  I used another local drive for the temp files when I ran the eseutil /d. Here is the syntax for the repair I will be running.  Would you check it out.

D:\Program Files\ExchSrvr\Bin> eseutil /p D:\Program Files\Exchsrvr\Mdbdata\priv1.edb /tG:\x\temprepair.edb

Do I need to use any or all of the other options, /i   -   /g   -  /createstm

Thanks for your help

I copied the question from libertyims.  My Veritas error msgs concern the Mailbox Store only
