Exchange Database Recovery Using eseutil commands

The real job of an exchange administrator is to maintain high availability when it comes to a
messaging environment.
Below mentioned processes are not done on a day to day basis, but understanding how the
process works is mandatory for every exchange administrator.

Database in Dirty Shutdown

5. To make sure that the log files that is required is in a Clean state, you can perform Eseutil /ml
Path of the log files\log prefix as indicated below. This command will help you check the health
of all the log files in the location.
log file health eseutil /ml

6.If the log files are healthy, then perform the Soft recovery with the command Eseutil /r <Log
Prefix> /l Path of the log files /d Path of the database
Soft recovery eseutil/r

7. Once the command completes successfully, mount the stores.
You might get this error:
Operation terminated with error -1216 (JET_errAttachedDatabaseMismatch, An
outstanding database attachment has been detected at the start or end of recovery,
but database is missing or does not match attachment info) after n seconds.
To resolve this, run soft recovery with the /i switch at the end and it will override the EDB-STM
mismatch.
How to run HARD RECOVERY:
In case the required log files are not available in a clean state or missing, either restore from a
successful back up or perform Hard repair.
8. In case we have valid backup, then we can restore the files.
9. In any restoration software, once the restoration completes, it should create a location
containing the restore.env file along with the logs that were backed up without being committed to
the database that was backed up.
12/08/2014 05:39 p.m.

10. By default, we have the location as C:\Temp as indicated below:
Log restore location

11. This folder contains the restore.env along with the logs as indicated below:
Restore.env Location
12. Make sure we take a copy of the folder containing the logs and restore.env file as
the content of the folder will be lost if the hard recovery completes or fails.
Copy the folder post restore

13. In the command prompt, perform the Hard recovery from the BIN folder with the following
command:
Eseutil /cc Path of the restore.env containing folder
Hard Recovery eseutil /cc

14. The command will complete successfully:
12/08/2014 05:39 p.m.
4 de 16
Hard Recovery completion

15. If you check the folder that contained the restore.env file, we would find that to be empty:
Location becomes empty post Hard Recovery

16. If the backup was taken a few days back and there were logs created in the production
location once the backup was done, then we must make sure that the production location contains
the sequence of logs from the one in the restore.env location. In this case, the restore.env folder
contained the last log file as E0000003.log. If the production location does not contain a sequence
of this (i.e. E0000004.log), the hard recovery command will fail.
17. We can use the eseutil /cc Path of the restore.env folder /t in order to avoid playing the logs
in the production location. (Kindly make sure to take a copy of the folder once again before
performing the command as mentioned in step 12. However, in this case, there will be data loss of
the mails created after the backup was taken.
18. We can mount the stores successfully.
How to run HARD REPAIR:
19. We can Hard repair the databases, to get them back into a clean shut down state in case we
do not have a valid back up. To do so type the command:
D:\Program Files\Exchsrvr\Bin>eseutil /p D:\Exchsrvr\Mailbox Store (SERVER).edb
20.
When you are prompted to confirm this operation, choose OK.

Pop-up whilst repair

http://support.microsoft.com/?id=317014
21. The process completes successfully.
Repair process completed

How to run OFFLINE DEFRAG:
22. Once Eseutil /p finishes we will need to defrag the databases, to do so type the following
command: Note: You must have available hard disk space equal to 110 percent of the size of the
database that you want to defragment.
23. To defragment Priv.edb, type the following command at the command prompt, and then
press ENTER:
24. D:\Program Files\Exchsrvr\Bin>eseutil /d D:\Exchsrvr\Mailbox Store
(SERVER).edb
Offline Defrag
25. Note If the private and the public information store databases are large, this step may take
some time. When you are prompted to confirm this operation, choose OK.
XADM: How to Defragment with the Eseutil Utility (Eseutil.exe) http://support.microsoft.com
/?id=192185
26. Once Eseutil /d finishes Mount the store & Dismount the store immediately then perform the
below steps.
How to run ISINTEG:

27. Use Isinteg.exe to fix the Pub1.edb database and the Priv1.edb database. The Isinteg.exe
utility runs a test on all areas of each of the databases and reports the results. Isinteg.exe also
tries to fix any issues that are encountered.
28. To fix Priv1.edb, type the following command at a command prompt
29. E:\Program Files\Exchsrvr\Bin>isinteg -s (SERVER) -fix -test alltests and choose the
store that we are running the command on.
12/08/2014 05:39 p.m.

ISINTEG
You are prompted to select the database to be checked.
Index
Status
Database-Name
Storage Group Name: First Storage Group

Mailbox Store (servername)
Offline
Public Folder Store (servername)
30. Enter a number to select a database or press Return to exit.

31. You can only check databases that are marked as offline. The Information Store service
must be started, but the information store must be dismounted.
32. When you select a database, you are prompted with the following message to confirm the
selection:
You have selected First Storage Group / Mailbox Store <servername>

Continue? (Y/N)
33. Press Y and Enter to start checking the selected database.
34. You receive a summary report that indicates the number of tests that were run, the number of
warnings, the number of errors found, the number of fixes attempted, and the time it took for the
program to run. If there are any warnings, errors, or fixes, run the command again. Repeat this
step until there are no warnings, errors, or fixes reported and the report looks similar to the
following text:
Test reference table construction result:

0 error(s); 0 warning(s); 0 fix (es); 0 row(s); time: 0h: 0m: 0s
Test Folder Result:
0 error(s); 0 warning(s); 0 fix (es); 101 row(s); time: 0h: 0m: 0s
Now in test 3 (reference count verification) of total 3 tests;
100% complete.
ISINTEG Completion
Before you execute any command on the database, please make sure that QUICKEDITMODE is
not checked in command prompt properties as it may pause the process upon left click.

Cool!! Great!!!
I like the way your explanation. Its covering all the details which could require by a good
exchange engineer for disaster recovery and I dont think so anybody will miss to recover
the databases after following your steps.
Bravo..bravo!
Now I am moving on next. I am an eager person of exchange but I didnt get right
opportunity to perform. Anyway it doesnt matter. I will request you to provide some links
or documents which will help me to do the troubleshooting on Exchange Attributes Level.
I show lot of Microsoft guys are solving the problem in second using Exchange Attributes. I
dont where they got those troubleshooting Idea. Most probably they would have got from
Microsoft itself.
I also want to do the troubleshooting on Exchange Attributes level but didnt get right
document after doing all Googling.
Thanks & Best Regards

To resolve -1216 error during soft recovery, you should use the following syntax :
eseutil /r /l Path of the log files /d
The trick here is to run the eseutil from database directory and to indicate /d parameter
with nothing behind. Source : Microsoft Support.

Very helpfull notes, Everything you covered in this notes about exchange database
maintenance.
16. Daktus Says:
I tried a lot these night. SBS2008 / I had made unfortunately the data-disk (with user data
and maildatabase) as backup disk, so sbs formatted it!!!
Then did restore. Then first en second would not mount. Then tried a lot: Microsoft sites,
tools from SBS2008 nothing worked: missing log files. Solutions by tools did not work. Then
found this site and I did exact what you said and it worked from te first steps (at night
03.00 am)!!! Thanks a lot.
I dont know if there is a link but before I did your steps I used the new switch eseutil /A.
Maybe this helped to give the good result, I am not shure.

February 25th, 2011 at 5:34 pm
hi, i have edb file of 100GB+, i want to run ESEUTIL /P, ESEUTIL /D and ISINTEG. But i
think it will take huge time. 1: any idea of time it will take on a normal dual core system. 2:
Can i first make a new storage group and divide the mail boxes among them. then run
these tests on them. 3: Can i just copy the storage group to faster computer and run these
tests on there and after it is complete, copy back the files to original exchange server
paths? i may lost some mail as when i will copy the files back, it is the old DB file, any work
around this. Thanks. Please reply, much respected. Regards.
Hi Rehman,
PFA answers:
1: any idea of time it will take on a normal dual core system.
As per: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/259851
This is because the repair runs at approximately 4 to 6 gigabytes (GB) per hour, and you
must run the Isinteg process after the repair, which runs at approximately 3 to 6 GB per
hour.
if you use the fastest possible hardware setup, a 50-GB database requires
approximately 8 hours for repair and approximately 8 hours for the Isinteg process, for a
total of 16 hours.
In my personal experience, the process is Hard repair (eseutil /p runs @ 4-6GB/hr) +
Offline defragmentation (eseutil /d runs @ 4-5 GB/hr) and ISINTEG (runs @ 2-4GB/hr)
2: Can i first make a new storage group and divide the mail boxes among them. then run
these tests on them.
This is the best option I can suggest. Make a plan and move users off to different mailbox
stores but ensure you dont move more than 4-6 user at the same time as it might kill your
server.
3: Can i just copy the storage group to faster computer and run these tests on there and
after it is complete, copy back the files to original exchange server paths? i may lost some
mail as when i will copy the files back, it is the old DB file, any work around this.
Well, you can even run eseutil commands on a machine running Windows XP. All you need
is some files (Eseutil.exe, Ese.dll, jcb.dll, and Exchmem.dll) from the bin folder as described
in: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/244525
I dont suggest this option if you are in a position to move users off to a new mailbox store.
Thanks,
Ratish Nair

Hi artical is realy good and easy to understand.

I have a quetion.
Do we require database to dismount while we are runing isinteg.
Exchange 2010 support isinteg or not.
23. Sunder Says:
@ Ajay
Yes you have to dismount the database for running ISINTEG (legacy & 2007).
Exchange 2010 comes with a cool new feature called as Repair Request. This is the feature
wherein you have an option of repairing the database when it is in Online Mode. And it
fixes the database corruption without taking the database offline.

any ideas?

Thanks a lot for this great thread which I found from search result! It really save my day as
yesterday I had exchange server2003 data store cant mount Error c1041724 after the
server restarted unattended for many times. The cooling heatsink of my HP ML350 was not
working causing the temperature to go up over 80 C degree! The server just shutdown by
itself after booting to w2003 when logon half wsy the process.
I have fixed the CPU heat issue but unable to bring up the exchange service due to
datastore mount error. Now after repairing the database(over 35GB of priv1.edb and stm
filesize) using eseutil /r and /i, its now back to normal
Thanks a lot!

This is good but only three times we can do repair once third time gets over you cannot do
the repair your database is gone for toss. so keep a flat file copy before doing this.

Thanks a lot for free useful topics. It was very helpful for me. Though besides this i
followed other sites. But this one is great. I have 50 GB data and full process need about
10 hours.
1. Take a copy of main data foler (Exchsrvr) and put it safe place
2. use useutil /mh to test health of database and got dirty shutdown.
3. use useutil /ml to test log file.
4. use useutil /r but it failed
5. use useutil /p for both database mail database and public folder database, successful
6. take a backup of repair database to a other folder for safety.
7. delete all log files and only except 2 edb and 2 stm files
8. mount data store just to check and then dismount
9. i have huge data so i avoid derangement
10. finally use isinteg -s servername -fix -test alltests and successful
Insallah, mail server now working properly.

Awesome article. Been struggling for a bit on this.

Would have been nice though for a heads up on the time this stuff takes to complete.
Took a full 18 hours (64982.27 seconds) to repair!
1 user had wiped their entire calendar events when they connected their iPhone for the first
time through iTunes I needed to restore just his mailbox from the previous nights
backup.
It would seem that in the question of Mac vs PC, even the devices are at war

I was wondering if you know whether changing priority of eseutil.exe in task manager after
it is running will help speed it up or is it not a wise idea to change it from normal?

Weve had a failure resulting in a hard repair. Currently the repair is running at around 6gb
per hour, is there anyway to spend this up. We are running exchange 2007.
Thanks
