While it is possible to run it over a network share, I have seen it cause more damage on a busy network (way back when in the Exchange 4.0 days, during an offline defrag operation).

It's a legit question. If the database were corrupt due to a hardware problem, it would be less than ideal to restore to that box or waiting n hours for new hardware to arrive. I'd ideally want my recovery server to have sufficient disk space to run database repair operations locally, but it is possible (albeit slower) to run many of those operations to a network drive. > -----Original Message----- > From: Christopher Hummert [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Monday, March 18, 2002 12:47 PM > To: Exchange Discussions > Subject: RE: Restore challenge > > > Yuo = Teh loser > > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Monday, March 18, 2002 10:34 AM > To: Exchange Discussions > Subject: Restore challenge > > > I have another co-worker who stated that if our Exchange 5.5 > server database crashes, he would simply restore everything > back to the same box.
