Few questions for repairing Exchange 2003 with ESEUTIL

Hi,

I just need some clarifications, if someone can help it will be very appreciated:


1- Do I need to replay all logs or just the one it says "Log Required" after ESEUTIL /MH cmd?

2- When I got state "CLEAN SHUTDOWN" does it means almost for sure there is no corruption? If not how could I verify?

3- After a ESEUTIL /P does logs files can be replayed? I think no because that cmd will reinitialize the DB so that why we can move or delete logs is that right?

4- Does ESEUTIL /D is really essential?

Thanks guys!

One last question:

After  running ESEUTIL /P should I remove all logs and chk files after that before running ISINTEG?
OR
I can run ESEUTIL /P and run ISINTEG and at the end remove logs and chk files?

Basically does it matter if I remove logs and chk files before or after ISINTEG?
