You'll also have to delete the Internet Mail Service/Connector before you
stop the services. After you bring the database back up on new server, you
just reinstall it.

Couple of things Matthew.
#1. Make sure the new install has the same SP and the same site/org name as
the old server.
#2. When you shutdown drop to the exchsrvr/bin directory and type eseutil
/mh /ispriv |more and that will list the headers and show you a consistent
database. *BTW* Even non-consistent dbs will work, if you del the .log files
#3. Run eseutil /mh /ispub |more (I think it is) and this will verify the
public folder as per above.
#4. Copy the #.edb from mdbdata over to the new exchange server. Copy the
*.edb from DSADATA (this brings the imc, recipents, public folders
structure).
#5. From new server exchsrvr\bin run isinteg -patch. You should see a
successful patch of the databases. Start Exchaneg on the new server.
Good Luck.

when you shut the services down, it should commit all transactions and leave
things consistent. I stress the word "should" strongly.

Hi People,
I've got a new machine for a very small exchange server. I basically want to
make sure the databases are consistant, stop the services on the old machine
and move the files to the new machine and restart the machine and away we
go. how do i make sure the database is consistant state? If i set the
services to disabled (all the exhange server ones) and then restart the
machine it should make all the databases in a consistant state?
it's only a very small database (less then 500mb) and i don't want to stuff
around with either tape drives. I thought about exmerge, but would be nice
to not have to recreate the mailboxes by hand.. (only 15 mailboxes).....
Any thoughts?
Matthew
