No problem. Wanted to ask here first before doing anything that would cause a headache later on.
Like I said, don’t know too much about exchange since it was setup by a consultant and they want me to learn more about it to help save costs. Appreciate the help! _____________________________ Cameron Cooper System Administrator | CompTIA A+ Certified Aurico Reports, Inc Phone: 847-890-4021 | Fax: 847-255-1896 ccoo...@aurico.com | www.aurico.com From: Richard Stovall [mailto:richard.stov...@researchdata.com] Sent: Tuesday, January 19, 2010 10:51 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: MDBDATA Folder In BE 12.5 the option to flush committed logs is configured under the backup job: Settings | Microsoft Exchange | Information Store Backups and the options are either “Full - Database & Logs (flush committed logs)” or “Incremental - Logs (flush committed logs)”. If you’ve got one of those set and your logs are not being flushed, then that’s a potential issue with BE. (Sorry for screaming earlier. I just wanted to make sure you didn’t do anything without fully understanding what’s going on and what your options are.)

We run Backup Exec with the Exchange agent on that server. Is there a different backup that we should be running? _____________________________ Cameron Cooper System Administrator | CompTIA A+ Certified Aurico Reports, Inc Phone: 847-890-4021 | Fax: 847-255-1896 ccoo...@aurico.com | www.aurico.com From: Richard Stovall [mailto:richard.stov...@researchdata.com] Sent: Tuesday, January 19, 2010 10:35 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: MDBDATA Folder NO!

Are these safe to delete? _____________________________ Cameron Cooper System Administrator | CompTIA A+ Certified Aurico Reports, Inc Phone: 847-890-4021 | Fax: 847-255-1896 ccoo...@aurico.com | www.aurico.com
