Log files required for DB mount
Hi
I have a recovered database that won't mount. If I run ESEUtil/ mh against the DB, I notice this:
Log Required: xxx301 - xxx305
Log commited: 0 - xxx305
Now, in the restored log location, there is only a log named E03.log
But, what does the above mean? In one line, it's saying that it needs xxx301 - xxx305, the next line says that the 0 - xxx305 logs have already been commited?
So does it need the logs or doesn't it?
Running Exchange 2007 SP2.

The database was recovered by using an RSG with backup software.
Yes, there is a restore.env file, do you know how I can play this into the Database? What does the restore.env file do in this respect and how does playing it into the database fix my problem?
And do I actually need those log files, because it's saying that it needs xxx301 - xxx305, the next line says that the 0 - xxx305 logs have already been commited? That's another part I'm confused on.

You would need to play the restore file.
Like amit said play the eseutil /cc command.

If I run ESEUtil /p do I need to run /d and then isinteg -fix as well?
Yes once you run the eseutil /p check and see if the Database is in Clean Shut Down.
Then run the eseutil /d.
Once that is done mount the Database and Dismount it.
Finally run the Isinteg.
Then run the eseutil /d.
Once that is done mount the Database and Dismount it.
Finally run the Isinteg.
