Exchange 2010-Won't flush logs
Posted on 2012-12-20
I have an exchange server that recently(kind of) decided to stop flushing its log files. For whatever reason, our Zenith BDR isn't getting a full backup of exchange. I ran eseutil /mh & it's in a clean shutdown state, so there appears to be some other corruption.
Anyone ever come across this & what did you do to resolve it? I'm thinking about giving the standard Server 2003 backup utility a shot & see if that flushes them. They gotta go and fast-I'm losing disk space in a hurry.

That was actuallly my plan. For it to be "exchange aware", the IS has to be running doesn't it?

yep..... keep all the services running and just do a standard exchange backup..... u can do it thru the gui.
Yes you have to have a backup of the Exchange DB in Online state and hope we arent having any DAG or HA ?
Also make sure all Exchange services are running

This is on server 2003-not looking like I have an Exchange backup option-just file level. I've always used 3rd party backup apps for this.
hmmmmm NTbackup will backup exchange for you out of the box.....

Did you check the status of the databases?
If anyone has error it will not flush the logs
You can see the errors of DBs in eventviewer and make sure it is mounted while backing up

VSS has to be enabled on that drive for the backup to work with Exchange. So far, so good-I guess I'll know in the AM if it worked.
