Problem with Exchange 2007 recovery
Hi everyone,I have a very big problem. My exchange 2007 server failed and I installed new one (with same name). EDBs are in safe.Server is 2K3 64bit.I installed E2k7 with m:recoverserver attribute. However, the old SGs aren't there (shouldn't they?). I tried to create SGs manually and then restore mailboxes with RSG. Here starts the problem; merge portion doesn't work correctly. It doesn't find anything to restore.I don't get any error messages.I have already checked following linkhttp://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/exchangesvravailabilityandisasterrecovery/thread/c9723a2c-3e8d-462c-8253-6cee38a7a8a6/Here is current situation shortly:- Reinstalled E2K7 with m:recoverserver attribute- All mailboxes are listed but not working- I created manually the SGs and mailbox databases exactly with old namesHope somebody can help me.
