Sorry, that wasn't helpful, was it? Please read: http://www.microsoft.com/exchange/techinfo/administration/55/BackupRestore.a sp http://www.microsoft.com/exchange/techinfo/administration/55/Disaster.asp
Circular logging is important to allow for restore to point of failure. The logs are purged upon successful online backup. The store will stop when the drive holding the logs falls to 10MB available. You recover from this by doing an online backup. If this is an NTFS partition, as it should be, then you could have compressed a few of those log files to free up some space, restart the store THEN immediately do an online backup.

Where did you read 'to start information store turn on circular logging'? William -----Original Message----- From: Scott Burgin [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, January 14, 2002 12:20 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Transaciton logs in 5.5 We had to turn off circular logging for Arcserver to backup exchnage a while back. Anyway, the information store won't start up because it says the transaction logs are too full. I re-enabled circular logging, but the information store still won't start. Any ideas?
