Sorry
posted this in the wrong group not a good week for me... From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of John Strongosky Sent: Monday, September 11, 2006 1:49 PM To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] Restore left Info store in an inconsistant state. Hey
Brian, thanks for the response, we in the process of moving to ex 2003 but in
the AD migration part and this server external disk array is dying and sorry Ed,
they don't trust the move server method as we have to move roles so
since I've done a restore to a new server with win2k 3 years ago
with Microsoft's help and was using the same process. (i.e. rename all dbdata
and mdbdata directories and rename server to same name, same EX services,
restore dbase etc etc) and this error did not happen with that restore but the
info store would not start because of an index problem which Microsoft said
would happen so I did a defrag on that server and every thing worked on that
server, but when I restored this dbase for the second time after renaming the
directories etc, to check to see if I was doing everything ok, and did an
eseutil /mh on the priv dbase before I tried and start the info store
it said it was in an inconsistent state, which blew me away...as I just did
a restore of this dbase to my recovery server to recover some email the 2 weeks
before and now my boss's are questioning the saves....So I'm trying to come up
with another plan and I was thinking of doing an offline save of this server as
we cant copy a 26gb file across the wan, restore the logs/dbase/working
dbase to same directory's on the new server and then try and bring up the
dbase...any thoughts..

John, You
can get it to start with eseutil and roll forward to the last log available.
What you’re going to need to do with your method is restore the backup and then
copy the logs over (which shouldn’t be many). You
can just copy the database and logs over the wire and mount them at the other
end, I don’t rmember how to do this on 5.5 though. Why aren’t you moving to
2003? 5.5 and 2000 are end of life products. Thanks, Brian

On Behalf Of John Strongosky Tried moving my dying ex 5.5 server
to new hardware this weekend and it failed because the restore did not
bring over a log file and left the dbase in an inconsistent state. Lucky for me
I has a recovery plan and was able to bring the old server back online. Has any
one had this happen to them or heard of this happening. Using VERITAS backup
Exec 10.d, I remember reading during my haste to find out what was wrong that
anti-virus and some backup software will hold on to the edb log file, tried
searching for the article that I read but cant find it.... The error I
received when I tried to start the dbase after the restore
was: EVENT ID 5000, could not start the
information store, 0x8004010f
thanks, |
