RE: eoo.log files
We use Arcserve and have successfully restore Exchange files/stores after a server crash. The Exchange Agent for Arcserve is marketed as a seperate product so you do need to install this seperately from the main product. Have you actually got the Agent installed and running? If not, then yes save yourself some money and use NTBackup (We went the Arcserve route because it was what we were familiar with and the original versions of NTBackup supplied with win2000 was not Exchange aware). -Original Message- From: Public Folder: Exchange [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 05 December 2002 17:51 To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: eoo.log files Drop Arcserve as it does not work correctly anyway.

RE: eoo.log files
These log files are pretty important. :) They are what exchange will use to recover your data after a restore. (You restore the database, then replay the logs). Yes, exchange will still work, up until you have a problem anyway. There are two ways to keep to a minimum[1]: 1. Backup using an Exchange aware product 2. Circular logging. Also, circular logging = BAD. Or rather, if you want to be able to restore all your data, circular logging = BAD. [1] Note, I said keep to a minimum, not stop.[2] [2] Hi Sherry! -Original Message- From: Jeffery Caudill [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 05 December 2002 16:42 To: Exchange Discussions Subject: eoo.log files My exchange server is creating a series of log files in the MDBData dir.

RE: eoo.log files
You don't say what version of exchange, but certainly with ex2000 you can set the properties of your storage group to use circular logging. I suggest you read up on the M$ support site the implications of doing this. Simply deleting the log files is NOT advisable. You don't need them until your server crashes, then you will find that your mail stores won't mount without being able to replay the transaction logs that you have just deleted!

RE: eoo.log files
Jeffrey, Have you ever read a book about managing Microsoft Exchange? Have you ever taken a class about managing Microsoft Exchange? Have you ever before had any experience whatsoever with Microsoft Exchange? What you have done is potentially data destructive. It is also a big no-no. I would suggest you do some learning before you cause any further damage. Here are some resources for you to investigate on your own. I would suggest doing this before you do anything else to your exchange server. http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Managing Microsoft Exchange Server - Paul Robichaux Exchange Server 5.5 - 24/7 Exchange Server 2000 - 24/7 Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5 - Planning, Design and Implementation - Tony Redmond Microsoft Exchange Server for Windows 2000: Planning, Design, and Implementation - Tony Redmond That should give you a good start. -Original Message- From: Jeffery Caudill [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Posted At: Thursday, December 05, 2002 12:18 PM Posted To: List - Exchange Server List Conversation: eoo.log files Subject: RE: eoo.log files I have three other servers that do not create so many of this particular log file. -Original Message- From: Ali Wilkes (IT) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, December 05, 2002 11:59 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: eoo.log files Back up his server?
