My exchange server had a hardware failure that required wiping the drives.
Now I need to restore the server and Exchange.
Windows 2000 sp4, Exch 2000 sp3
BE 11D 7170, sp1
I did this a couple years ago with 8.6 and had no issues.
The Exchange server is a remote server running the remote agent. It is in a different domain from the media server, but the domains are both W2k3 and the trusts are intact. To backup Exchange I use the domain admin account for that domain, which is also the exchange admin account.
I have successfully done a manual restore of the C: & system state. When I start the restore of the Info store, it hangs at 118Bytes, then jumps to 5mb and fails:
e0008488 Access is denied
There are no disabled accounts with mailboxes
I called support and everything he asked I had already tried. Does anyone have ANY ideas? I am on the 3rd day of downtime for this server and the pitchforks are out.
Thanks
