The original Exchange server and storage group are gone. All that's left is the TSM backups. Defined the storage group and database EXACTLY on another Exchange server. Defined the RSG and added the storage group/database to the RSG with the can be overwritten by a restore checked. The restore runs and did over 500GB and then the failure. In the TDPEXC.LOG:
ACN5798E MS Exchange API HRESERESTORECOMPLETE() failed with HRESULT: 0xc7fe1f42 -Database not found. But then I have this event log entry: Event Type: Error Event Source: ESE BACKUP Event Category: Restore Event ID: 950 Date: 3/2/2010 Time: 5:57:15 PM User: N/A Computer: STVEXCHANGE09 Description: tdpexc (1860) Unexpected file system error 2 encountered while opening the restore environment file. This is talking about a RESTORE.ENV file the was or should have been created? Trying to run the ESEUTIL /cc to apply the restored logs is what I'm assuming. I am definitely NOT an exchange person and could use some help. I don't even have access to this server. I'm running this through a proxy person at the client site. Is this a TDP/TSM issue or an Exchange issue? If anyone can give some insight. TIA, Bill Boyer This is all TSM 5.5 from one end to the other.
