RE: Exchange 2000 clean up agent

[Dave Healey]

Title: Message

Everyone is still getting emails. The problems are:

1:  I am unable to create email boxes for new users, although their email addresses show up in their AD account. When you try to send them an email it gets bounced back and I can not find their mailbox on the server.

2: I also have a couple of deleted mailboxes that I have to reconnect to dummy users to check the email in them. ( People who have been let go)

My director has told me to run this rebuild, but I want to find out the consequences first.

I have just been tasked with the responsibility of our exchange 2000 server, of which I know very little,  because the exchange admin was forced to take his vacation. Anyway we are running exchange 2000 with sp1 in a cluster environment. I have tried to run the cleanup agent on both of the information stores and it will not run. I get the following error message:

 

An Internal processing error has occurred. Try restarting the Exchange System Manager ( Already done twice) or the Microsoft Exchange Information store, or both

 

ID no: c1041724   

Exchange System Manager

 

I have restarted the Exchange System Manager and it did not work. I can not reconnect  a deleted mailbox either. Although it appears to let me, it does not reconnect and when I try to reconnect again it tells me that it already has been reconnected to a user but has not replicated. This happens on both of our servers.

 

Microsoft's website advises that I run a rebuild of the  Recipient Update Service. What effect will this have on the users who are connected to these servers, over 800 users are presently connected?

 

Thanks in advance for any help.
