Hi,
All permissions are OK and we got the same error using the VSA account for the task. I guess the problem is related to the disparity between the Exchange System Manager and the Exchange version.
On one hand we have Win2k with Exchange 2000 SP3 and on the other hand we have EV installed on a Win2k3 server with System Manager 2003. We found that from the System manager 2003 tools all the mailbox stores (except one) show up as dismounted (but they are working. If we browse the Mailbox Stores from the System Manager 2000 at the Exchange server all Mailbox stores are up and running.
One thing you should know (I was not told before... Sorry) is that when installing the Exchange System Manager 2003 on the EV Server a message message showed up: The schema is not ready to use Exchange 2003 and we wont get the System Managers full functionallity unless we run setup /forestprep before.
We tried downgrading to System Manager 2000 on the Win2003/EV server but we get some warnings from MS regarding version incompatibilities and 2 mailbox stores still appear to be dismounted (but this time the rest seem to be mounted.
I�m sure we missed some prerequisites for this mixed-version environment. Any idea on how to work this around?
Thanxagain,
Jose Luis
