Siegfried: Just to follow-up on this issue, script finally recovered after contacting PSS and several restore attempts. Here was the resolution:
>>Restore the Private information store from the server that housed that mailbox to a contingency. Started/shutdown IS and moved priv out. >>Restore the Public information store from the server where the script was executed to a contingency. Started/shutdown IS. >>moved the restored priv.edb to the same location as the restored pub and ran Isinteg - patch >>Script retrieved through the Agents tab from the restored mailbox.

Fortunately, I'm not using BLB. I'll proceed with my SMR. If I can't get it back through agents tab, I'll try the decoder and/or mdbvue . I'll let you know how I made out.

Let's see what I can remember... The Exchange 5.5 Scripting agent script itself is stored as a hidden item in the folder it is applied to (in your case: the particular mailbox on Server A). Another second config item, also hidden, is created on the server the script is supposed to be executed (in your case Server B) in the system folder Event_Config (or similar - can't remember the correct name unfortunately). So, if you just want to get the script code back then try to restore the whole mailbox store on a recovery server [1] and use either a debugging tool [2] or try to connect with Outlook and see if you can get it via the Agents tab. [1] Note that if you use BLB [3] you might not be able to restore Scripting Agents. Only if you use an Exchange backup aware product to do a full IS backup/restore you have a chance. [2] Either MicroEye ScriptDorector (http://www.microeye.com/scriptdirector) or the Microsoft Agent Editor (used to be in the Exchange 5.5 SDK or BackOffice Resource Kit 4.5) or plain mdbvu32.exe (comes with Exchange on the setup CD). But the latter needs to be used CAREFULLY. [3] BLB => Brick Level Backup like it is offered with ArcServe, Veritas and other backup software. <Siegfried /> > -----Original Message----- > From: Exchange Discussions [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Friday, May 24, 2002 8:16 PM > To: Exchange Discussions > Subject: Recovering an Event Script from a Mailbox > > Hi all, > > I'm hoping you can assist me in just how to recover an event script that > is > associated with a particular mailbox.
