Dunno why this bounced before... Here we go again. Fwd:
No idea if it works, but it might be cheaper than hours spent setting up a new server and recovering, depending on your environment and how recoverable it is. $850-$950 http://www.ontrack.com/special/0602pc1exchangead.asp http://www.msexchange.org/software_reviews/Ontrack_PowerControls_v10_Rec overy_and_Administration.html All the best, Andy "PowerControls is a recovery and administration utility that allows you to extract mailbox data from an offline .EDB file, something that has hitherto been well nigh impossible for the majority of Exchange Admins. Data is copied using a simple drag-and-drop operation from the source into the target. The source can be either a PRIV.EDB file (private Information Store), or a PUB.EDB file (public Information Store). The target can be either a .PST file (Personal Folders file) or an on-line Exchange Information Store. There is also a viewer that displays individual mailbox or folder items and a search facility that can make messages easier to locate within the Information Store."

I thought I made it pretty clear in my original response to your question: I believe you'll need to build a new server with the same version, service pack, patch level, and server name, and do a disaster recovery. When you can mount the store, you can then do an Exmerge. For 12 mailboxes, you could also simply manually copy the contents with Outlook if you wanted.

Then use exmerge or just log into the server to retrieve mail and folders for each mailbox. Outlook will be useless to me till the server is running!! Correct?! Was a os mirror scsi controller smoked smoked both drives. Wish I did have at least one hd. -----Original Message----- From: Ed Crowley [mailto:curspice@ baspacbell.net] Sent: Saturday, January 25, 2003 1:03 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Boot drives smoked With Outlook to a PST, then from a PST to the new server.

Boot drives mirrored smoked. Still have Databases pub and priv. Do not need server any longer but need mail and folders turned into pst's. Only 12 boxes were on this server. What's the best and fastest way to do this? Exmerge? _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
