Hello,<br />
<br />
I did an offline defrag. &nbsp;I used the instructions here <a href="https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/328804" rel="ugc nofollow">https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/328804</a>.<br />
<br />
In the ESEUTIL utility using the /d /p switches, the original database is not overwritten with the new defragmented database when the offline defragmentation process is completed. &nbsp;This puts the defragged database in a folder you specify.<br />
<br />
After the defrag was done, I moved over the new .edb and .stm files into the <b>C:\Progam Files\EXCHSRVR\MDBDATA</b> directory.<br />
<br />
Then I renamed the old files <b>priv1_old.edb</b> and <b>priv1_old.stm</b>.<br />
<br />
Then I renamed the new files <b>priv1.edb</b> and <b>priv1.stm</b>.<br />
<br />
I restarted the MS exchange info store service, then I tried to mount the info store and that is when I got the error &quot;The Database Files in this Storage Are Inconsistent&quot;. &nbsp;What happened? &nbsp;Thank you for your help.

The Database Files in this Storage Are Inconsistent After Offline Defrag
