Did you move mailboxes to the new server or restore the databases to new
hardware? Hopefully the former... 

The recommendation from Symantec is not clear, are they asking you to
run that against the snapshot or the production server? The Exchange
group has no such recommendation against the production database, so
what reasoning does Symantec provide for the need to perform these
operations?

Conversation: Database corruption problems - how to run isinteg from
batch file?
Subject: RE: Database corruption problems - how to run isinteg from
batch file?

Hi Andy,

>From what I can tell this new hardware seems to be working fine - it is
a stock standard intel dual-processor server board with latest bios in
an intel certified case with several harddrives plugged into
motherboard.  I know the old hardware was probably cause of previous
issues due to being woefully underpowered.
However, I will take another look at the hardware and see what I can
find.

NTbackup runs nightly for Exchange and that is not reporting any
integrity errors.

Regarding the 'JET_errBadPageLink' - can you tell me is that a physical
error, not a logical error?

The reason I started running the defrag weekly was due to recommendation
from Symantec when installed their LiveState Recovery product
(http://service1.symantec.com/SUPPORT/powerquest.nsf/docid/2005091309295
062)
- it recommended:
"We recommended that you regularly perform integrity checks on the
database by running the following commands:
Eseutil /mh >C:\header.txt      Performs a header dump and pipes to a
file
Eseutil /g >C:\integrity.txt    Performs an integrity check and pipes to
a file
Eseutil /k >C:\checksum.txt     Creates a checksum

You should defragment the database frequently."

I'll take your recommendation and stop defrag for now. I will also
uninstall LiveState Recovery for a month and see if that is causing the
problems (although there documentation in above link primarily refers to
corruption of the snapshot image being taken for backup, not the running
database).

I use to think Exchange was great - I hope I can get there again.

Thanks for your help,

Regards,
  Bryce Stenberg.
