Your better course of action (besides upgrading from a
dead version but that is another thread) is build the new server as a
second server in your organization and moving the mailboxes. You get a
clean db and a fresh start. Forget trying to migrate the DB
like you would an application database.

Subject: [ActiveDir] Restore left Info store in an inconsistant state.
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
in the app log, and in the system log was the info store service terminated with service specific error, 2147746063.
in the app log, and in the system log was the info store service terminated with service specific error, 2147746063.
Another question, since my dbase is 26gb and I can't copy it across the wan, can do I a save with the services shutdown and restore the dbase and work dbase to the new server?
thanks,
john
