RE: Deleting a mailbox from a deleted server
If you create a new mailbox with the same directory name, you should be able to delete it. -Original Message- From: Lake, Mary Elizabeth [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, April 11, 2002 3:50 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Deleting a mailbox from a deleted server We are in a bit of a quandary - we brought a new Exchange server online; all public folders, private mailboxes, services, etc were migrated to the new server and then the first server was removed from the Exchange site. Afterwards, a stray mailbox was discovered, still pointing to the old server. When attempting to delete the mailbox we get the error that it could not be deleted because the information is not available. Unfortunately we have no easy way to bring that back online. The defunct mailbox has been hidden so it doesn't present a problem for users, but I'm trying to figure out how (or even if I can?) to delete it out of the Recipients container. I've been through Technet Articles, including Q12 (Removing Stranded Mailboxes In Mailbox Resources) to no avail. Any suggestions?

RE: Calendar Problem
I have run into this on our Resource Calendars. For us, it came down to corrupt reoccurrence information in one of the meetings. To fix it, I opened the calendar with a legacy client (exchange client) and moved the calendar folder to a PST. Then I had outlook recreate the Calendar folder by opening outlook with the /resetfolder switch. Then from the exchange client I began moving appointments back into the calendar until I found the one that was corrupt (also have the mailbox open with Outlook and the processor will spike when it is moved in). Recreate that item and all is good. Matt -Original Message- From: John [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, April 11, 2002 3:11 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Calendar Problem User running Outlook 98 connects to Exchange 5.5 SP4 server. Since yesterday every time they click on the calendar it will cause Outlook to hang. The CPU spikes to 100 and Outlook shows that it is not responding. They are still receiving email, but anything to do with the calendar will just hang Outlook. The only thing that I know changed yesterday is we removed some old accounts off the server. They had all been hidden for some time so I know no one was using them, but they could have had an old meeting scheduled with one of them. I wouldn't think this would cause Outlook to hang though. If the user connects through OWA everything works fine. She can see her calendar and use it without issues. If someone else tries to open her calendar (one of her delegates) it will cause their Outlook to just hang as well. I have tried searching the knowledge base but could not find anything. I was hoping that someone had seen something like this before and could help me out.

RE: Error when backing up Exch. 5.5 (using MS backup)
Title: Message I am not sure this is correct. I believe you are referencing NAS as the platform Microsoft does not support. I have seen many design documents in relation to large stores utilizing SAN's for Exchange 2000. I know that this is 5.5 so I could be wrong for this version. But Microsoft uses a SAN for their Exchange farm (EMC Sym's). -Original Message-From: Lefkovics, William [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, December 06, 2001 2:39 PMTo: MS-Exchange Admin IssuesSubject: RE: Error when backing up Exch. 5.5 (using MS backup) Wait.

Is this a new Exchange setup? --Not really. The server's been up for over a year, but we just hooked up a SAN array & ran perf optimizer to redirect the store. We have seven servers total, & this is the only one with a problem. 2. Has this ever worked? --No, not on this server. We normally use ArcServe, which worked fine until recently. (before you ask, the error was around _before_ the SAN switchover) 3. This is a dumb question, butdoes this exchange server possibly still have circular logging turned on? --No. (I just checked). Good question, tho. (There are no "dumb" questions, only dumb answers.) 4. How many log mdbdata log files do you have? --A whole bunch. Since I haven't been able to get a good backup, they're still there. 5. If you can't get it backed up, you probably have many many days worth and a very full partion. --The SAN _greatly_ increased my storage capacity, it's only about 50% full.

It makes _no_ diff when the job runs. At the present time, I am only running the job manually and it still fails. Sorry, should've told you, the OS is Win2Kserver. I run the same job on two other, identical, servers with no problems. Now, I wouldn't even be using NTBackup, except that ArcSmurf choked on the backup. After reading about similar problems from other folks on this list, I thought I'd try using NTBackup to a file & then have ArcSmurf back that up to tape.
