I'm reinstalling and restoring again. (again) I didn't realise this was going to be so problematic.
When the restore of the IS to the recovery server is complete I will see these files. edb.chk edb.log edb00E99.log edb00E9A.log edb00E9B.log PRIV.EDB PRIV.pat PUB.EDB PUB.pat res1.log res2.log I'm not terribly bothered about the data in the logs, but as I understand they need to be rolled forward to get the db consitant. So I will run `eseutil /r /is` `isinteg -pri -fix -test alltests` `isinteg -patch` then check and delete the Restore in Progress regkey. fingers crossed...
