Exchange can't find M drive path

[havensov]

Ok, Exchange has been down since yesterday. All the services are running, but its not coming up.

In the event veiwer i am getting

The server was unable to add the virtual root "/Exchange" for the directory 'M:\MyDomain.com\MBX' due to the following error. The system cannot find the path specidifed. the data is the error code.

How do i get exchange to see this dierctory again? I can get to it in explorer and its there.. whats the problems here??

That's a custom recipient problem from the look of it.

Exchange doesn't need to see it. Explorer may show it but honestly don't touch it.

Ok, no touch, got it... but how do i get Exchange to see it again?

I'd recommend researching any event logs entries at

http://eventid.net/

That should be in the Favorites of any admin/engineer. Tons of info there.

This should confirm what Zelandakh posted. Doesn't seem to be critical. I'm sure if you really need to see the drive, a simple reboot would do it.
