I am currently working my way through an issue with the backup software I use for Exchange. In the mean time I have to manually roll up the transaction logs on a database. I am familiar with how to roll up the logs log in Exchange 2003 and 2007 and was going to do the same thing in Exchange 2010.
1. Dismount the mailbox store 2. Run esutil /mh against the database and check the results for State: Clean Shutdown Log Required: 0-0 (0x0-0x0) 3. Move all .log files out of the transaction log folder to a temp location 4. Mount the mailbox store 5. If the mailbox store mounts successfully purge the logs in the temp location. Would theses same steps apply to a mailbox store that is part of a DAG with two mailbox copies (just run the steps on each instance of the mailbox store)? I did some googling and was not find able to find a technet article regarding best practices for transaction log roll up for a mailbox store. Any feedback is greatly appreciated.
