Exchange 2007 mailbox database on server 2008 cluster will not start

I have a two node active/passive server 2008 cluster for exchange 2007. Both nodes are online and all resources start except for the mailbox database. When I try to bring the resource online, I receive the following error message:

The action 'Bring this resource online' did not complete. An error occured while attempting to bring the resource 'First Storage Group/Mailbox Database (Exchange)' online. The cluster resource could not be brought online by the resource monitor.

Application Event Log reports:

Source: MSExchange Cluster
Event ID: 1003
Level: error

Failed to bring the resource First Storage Group/Mailbox Database (Exchange) online.

I believe the database has become corrupted and the resource will not failover to the other node.

What is the best way to repair a database in a cluster?  Any live help with this problem would be greatly appreciated.

okay. It looks like the mailbox database is the only resource that will not start on the cluster manager.

When I try to mount the database in the exchange management console, I receive the following error:

--------------------------------------------------------
Microsoft Exchange Error
--------------------------------------------------------
Failed to mount database 'Mailbox Database'.

Mailbox Database
Failed
Error:
Exchange is unable to mount the database that you specified. Specified database: AB-EXCHANGE\First Storage Group\Mailbox Database; Error code: MapiExceptionCallFailed: Unable to mount database. (hr=0x80004005, ec=-528)
.
