SBS 2003 Exchange Database Corrupt
Can someone please assist me to sort out a corrupt database from Exchange in SBS 2003. I am aware of ESEUTIL and have tried to run it with no joy. I was hoping there was another way to check the database before this step. Cheers & Thanks.

Thanks Chakko,
It seems there is an issue with a log file and I cannot mount the database because of it. I am reading the Mike Pfeiffer info at the minute.
ESEUTIL seemed to function and reported the system is in "clean shutdown". Have just run the following: ESEUTIL /mh "C:\Program Files\Exchsrvr\MDBDATA\pri
Database is in the default location on SBS box. C:\Program Files\Exchsrvr\MDBDATA\pri
EDB file is 1.8Gb and STM is just under half a gig.
Log Files are on F:\Data\Exchsrvr\Logs
Plenty of free space.

I have just run a defrag using the ESEUTIL /mh switch that ran successfully. When I go to mount the DB the error: Database Files in this store are corrupted. ID No: c104173b
I would make a copy of the edb and stm files, then try the eseutil /R command and check the results.
If it doesn't fix it then try eseutil /P
You may need to look at the parameter options for the command and you may need to specify the path of the edb and stm files and maybe the log file path and prefix. If you have any problem with syntax let me know and I will try to check the exact syntax for the command you need.
