Exchange 2010 Standard (version 14.00.0639.021) on Windows 2008 R2 Standard. Everything running great until yesterday.
We had major power issues yesterday and the server went down hard, and this morning I find that two of our 5 databases won't mount. (My email is on one of the good ones that do mount). Below is the error. I've changed the server and database name. I have done a shutdown, startup to see if that might help. All 5 databases are on the same raid set, so I don't think I have a hardware issue. >From what I can read (if my google fu is any good), my best option is to >recover from backup (the backup is done daily, using Windows native tools). >Recovery of Exchange databases is something I've never had to do before. Any other thoughts/ideas/hints would be appreciated.
