I run a full every day. Last night I dismounted the store, moved the logs to a backup folder, remounted the store, and logs started generating properly. This morning, my BE job finished successfully again, but again, the logs were not cleared.
I've put in a ticket with Symantec, but after my last ticket with them, (A level-2 critical that was open for over 2 months... for something they would tell me verbally was a known issue, but would never provide me with documentation of it.), I'm not holding my breath. The good thing is that I know I can manually clear the logs if necessary. -----Original Message----- From: Carol Fee [mailto:c...@massbar.org] Sent: Wednesday, June 23, 2010 10:23 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Corrupt Exchange Logs Was last night's backupexec job full or incremental ?

Working on that one now. -----Original Message----- From: Jim Slattery [mailto:jslatt...@medexassist.com] Sent: Tuesday, June 22, 2010 4:42 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Corrupt Exchange Logs Tried that... the Windows backup failed too, but seems to have removed a bad .log file, so I'm going to try it again and see what happens. *fingers crossed* Thanks for the help!

Generally log files are cleared with a successful backup, but that's going to be difficult when they're the reason the backup is failing: Backup- \\DAG1\Microsoft Information Store\Corporate Mailbox Database WARNING: "\\DAG1\Microsoft Information Store\Corporate Mailbox Database\Logs ( E0000008C20.log - E0000009BBE.log )" is a corrupt file. This file cannot verify. My question is: How do I clear corrupt log files when I can't get a successful backup? TIA for any help you can provide!
