Active Redo Log File Corrupt
error numbers are 483 General, 440 Logging/Repair, and 305 Log File Validation. I am thinking the best way to handle this is to 1) dismount the database 2)shut downexchange services 3)run Eseutil /mh 4) run Eseutil /d 5) delete all of thetransaction log files 6) restart exchange services 7) mount the database 8) run the backup mount exchange 2010 database without log files jobs on the exchange store and server. If this is not the best plan then what should I do?

Recovery, Exchange Server Recovery 1 Comment Exchange transaction log files are like record-keepers that jot down all activity that takes place on the server in real-time. Since an Exchange server typically has thousands of mailboxes residing on it, there is http://www.stellarservertools.com/blog/recover-exchange-database-when-log-is-corrupt/ a lot happening on it each minute of the day; as a result, lots http://www.exchangerecover.com/blog/recover-exchange-database-without-log-files.html of entries are made into the log files each second. Such huge amount of information written into these files so frequently causes them to bloat up to massive sizes. And when that happens, transaction log files become prone to problems like corruption and damage. Log files are essential to the Exchange server and are often log file needed to replay or rollback the server into a consistent state if it goes out of service. Hence, it is important to save them through backups. However, if an administrator forgets the backup step, he could land into trouble if one or many of such files get damaged since that could paralyze the whole server. So how can one recover Exchange server if such a situation arises? Common practices used corrupt log file to recover Exchange database with Corrupted Log files Many organizations follow the practice of email vaulting to bypass the problems of the Exchange file system as much as possible. In this process, PST, EDB and STM and log files related to the Exchange server are stored in a comprehensive manner such that they can be better controlled thus minimizing the server downtime. However, this technique fails if log files are corrupted badly. In such a case, the most common way to manually recover from the problem is through a three step approach that includes copying the log files to “
Angelbrown Leka, On August 19, 2014 | Download Complete PDF Many a times, Exchange Server is addressed as a transaction-based emailing system. Transaction is simply set of operations that are performed against the database which can be inserting or deleting an item or updating the database by following set of rules: Atomic: This ascertains that all of the required operations take place successfully or none of them will take place. Consistent: A transaction when committed to the database is responsible to bring it into consistent state. Isolated: If changes are done in one transaction, it will not affect the other transaction out of its scope. Also, changes will be visible only when transaction is committed to database. Durable: Even if the system crashes or any hardware failure occurs, the transactions that are committed to database will remain safe. A transaction will be committed to Extensible Storage Engine (ESE) database only when it passes the durability test. Moreover, a transaction must reach log file on disk by its transition from memory. Consider an example: An email from Inbox folder has to be moved into folder named "New". In this case, following logical operations will be processed by Exchange Server: Delete email from Inbox Folder. Insert that email into New Folder. Update both the folders to reflect the changes. Now, this three step procedure of moving an email from folder to another will be counted as one transaction, In case any of the operations fail, no transaction will be logged in the memory or to the log file. This reflects the "Atomic" character of transaction that says either all operations will occur or none will occur. How Exchange Transaction Logs Works» Detailed Explanation An Exchange Server administrator would agree to the fact that transaction logs are equally important as the database files are as far as DB recovery is concerned. This is because log files manifest operations that take place up to second. So basically, transaction logs carries data that even database might not have and thus they play an important role in recovery of Exchange database at times of failures. Without log files, DB would be inconsistent and most probably unusable. Extensible Storage Engine (ESE) uses Write-Head logging technology that ascertains DB protection against power failure, hard disk, or system failure. This first writes the transactions to log files on hard
