Exchange Backup

Happy New Year to All,

I have discovered that the backup of my mail server isn't operational. I have not sure how to resolve this issue, any tips?

It looks like your exchange database is inconsistent/corrupt. Talk to your Microsoft support route for checking this with the ese utils and then retry a backup.

Your information was correct as the database was corrupt. We have created a new server and move all Mailboxes and Public Folders to the new mail server.

Do you know how to remove the first site exchange server.

If you are runnning Exchange 5, take a look at MS knowledge base Q152959.
