Hi,

The Eseutil is very helpful in repairing corrupted exchange database files. They come as a built-in utility with Microsoft Exchange Server and perform database recovery from the Exchange Server. The default location of these tools are shown below:

C:\Program Files\Exchsrvr\bin

Eseutil /p command is used to repair badly damaged files. The complete Eseutil repair command line is shown below:

Eseutil /P c:\exchsrvr\mdbdata\DB1.EDB /Sd:\exchsrvr\mdbdata\DB1.STM /Te:\TEMPREPAIR.EDB

Before performing this action:

  • Make sure you have a minimum of 20% free disc capacity in association to the Exchange database size.
  • Make sure to put both database files (EDB and STM) in the same directory and if they are stored at the different locations, you need to point to the files on the command line.
  • Make a backup of the database.

Afterwards, run ISINTEG and run all tests so that any damage to the structure of mailbox can be fixed before you let users go back to work.

Best Regards.
