Not when you are runnng EXCH 2003. The only good thing about it is that my project for EXCH2010 just got pushed up.

hehe.. no doubt.. I'm sure there are easier ways to get that pushed up though ..welcome to the world of DAG's...

There is, but it is also a good time to cut back on the mail, since the company I work for will not allow mailbox sizes. Can you say 30GB mailboxes

Don't feel too bad guys. I have to deal with it (the itch) until about the 15th. Stuck on a project at work that won't end till around that time. Good luck to all of you lucky guys that atleast get to jump in a stand this weekend.

You know I could always use the extra hands at importing 2K mailboxes back into exchange...Gotta love an exchange server crash with 8 edb's mark in a dirty state.

Uhhh ummmm yeah thats what i was thinkin too.......thats bad, right?

I now know how a crack addict feels. I have been rubbing and scratching all over. I need my fix and it can'y get here fast enough.

wash in scent free soap.....and repeat.

x2.....whats all the excitement about again?!?!?!?!?

I love this part. Getting all the gear double checked again and shooting the bow a few more times. Man I love how the excitement builds.

Yes its bad...When an exchange database gets marked in a dirty state you have to run a repair on it before you can mount it back up into exchange... You can do one of 2 types of repair a soft and a hard, if the soft fails then you have to do a hard repair and then defrage. A hard repair usually processes between 5-6gb an hour, take the largest edb i have that is 660gb its roughly going to take 130+ hours jsut to repair. Then you have to create a recovery storage group.

The quickest way to get mail restore to users so you wont hear all the complain is to move the dirty database and create a Blank database(Dial Tone). However you will still hear complaints as they will loose thier contacts and calendar events since the Dial Tone Db was a blank DB.

In short its bad and very time consuming...
