How to reset logs on Exchange 2010 after Event 518 stops backups from completing?

I'm only able to find references to resetting logs Exchange 2000 and 2003.  I'm looking for info for Exchange 2010.
There appears to be some kind of corrupt logs issue with one of our mailbox databases.  The corrupt logs cause the full backup to fail and because the full backup fails, the logs just get worse and keep growing.
The server has event ID 518 that says a log is  "is missing (error -528) and cannot be used. If this log file is required for recovery, a good copy of the log file will be needed for recovery to complete successfully. "
How do e get past this and stop the backup job from trying to look for this log file and start over?  I know that a full backup is supposed to clear the logs, but it will not happen because the backup never completes due to this log error.

its still same for 2010
Stop all the databases in the storage group.
Verify the state of each database file in the particular storage group. For information about how to verify the state of each database file, see the "Database states" section.
Perform one of the following actions:
If one or more of the databases are in a Dirty Shutdown or Inconsistent state, determine which transaction log files can be removed without affecting database consistency.
For more information, see the "Log files" section.
If all the databases are in a Clean Shutdown or Consistent state, you may remove all the transaction log files except for the current transaction log file. Removing the
current log file when all databases are in a Clean Shutdown state will cause a reset of the log file sequence. This does not prevent databases from starting. However, a reset of the log file sequence affects the ability to roll a
database forward from a previous backup if the situation occurs.
Copy all the transaction log files that you want to remove to a different location before you permanently remove them from the transaction log hard disk. Do not permanently delete the transaction log files until you have
successfully completed a full online backup of all the databases in the storage group.

  • Circular Logging in exchange 2010

    How to enable circular logging in Exchange 2010 while is in DAG in place.
    2.      
    When enable it will it clear my Transaction Log automatically?
    Regards

    The Exchange Management Shell can be used to determine which mailbox databases are enabled for circular logging by running the following command.
    [PS] C:\>Get-MailboxDatabase | where {$_.CircularLoggingEnabled -eq $true}
    Name Server Recovery ReplicationType
    Mailbox Database 02 EX1 False Remote
    Mailbox Database 04 EX2 False None
    Another technique is to list all mailbox database sorted by their circular logging settings.
    [PS] C:\>Get-MailboxDatabase | select name, circularloggingenabled | sort circularloggingenabled -desc | ft -AutoSize
    Name CircularLoggingEnabled
    Mailbox Database 04 True
    Mailbox Database 02 True
    Mailbox Database 01 False
    Mailbox Database 03 False
    Here is a method that can be used to disabled circular logging on each of the mailbox databases. Because the change doesn’t take effect until the mailbox database is dismounted and mounted again, this method also performs that task.
    Caution: this may cause a disruption to mailbox access for your end users, so I do not recommend running this outside of maintenance windows.
    Firstly, read the mailbox databases that have circular logging enabled into an array.
    [PS] C:\>$dbs = Get-MailboxDatabase | where {$_.CircularLoggingEnabled -eq $true}
    You can see now that the two mailbox databases are in the array.
    [PS] C:\>$dbs
    Name Server Recovery ReplicationType
    Mailbox Database 02 EX1 False Remote
    Mailbox Database 04 EX2 False None

  • Cannot install Exchange 2010 after installing Exchange 2013

    Hi,
    I have the current setup as explained below.
    Exchange 2010 SP3 Version 14.3 (Build 123.4)
    I installed Exchange 2013 as well to the setup. After installation everything was fine, but my backup solution was not as good enough to support Ex2013. So, I had to roll back. I uninstalled Ex 2013.
    On the new server (on which I actually installed EX 2013) I tried installing Ex 2010 but it failed. But, when I execute Get-ExchangeVersion I get these two.
      AdminDisplayVersion                     ExchangeVersion
      Version 14.3 (Build 123.4)              0.1 (8.0.535.0)
      Version 14.0 (Build 639.21)             0.1 (8.0.535.0)
    The first one is the live Exchange 2010 ( The first one which we had). When I try to run the setup, I am getting the following Error.
    Error:
    The following error was generated when "$error.Clear(); get-OfflineAddressBook -DomainController $RoleDomainController | where { $_.IsDefault } | Enable-OabWebDistribution" was run: "Object is read only because it was created by a future version
    of Microsoft Exchange: 0.20 (15.0.0.0). Current supported version is 0.10 (14.0.100.0).".
    What can I do now? My intention is just to create another Exchange Server for redundancy. I only have one EXchange server now. I tried installing EX 2013, and it seems not suit me because of backup issue. What I have in my mind is to get 2 Ex 2010 Servers.
    Should I try uninstalling EX 2010 and installing it from the beginning on the new EX Server?
    Thanks

    Hi Steve,
    I have the same situation, On a new server (on which I actually installed EX 2013) I tried installing Ex 2010.
    In the Client Access Role install setup, I getting:

    Admin Display Version
    server 1 version 14.3
    server 2 version 14.0 (Client Access Role Error)
    how can I resolve this error?

  • Message looping between Exchange 2003 & Exchange 2010 after domain type changed to internal relay

    Hi
    We have a coexistence environment where we are currently migrating from Exchange 2003 to 2010 and have 80% of the users already on the Exchange 2010 platform. This is all within the same AD forest, let's call it FOREST1.AD.
    The problem I'm seeking help about is a message routing problem we had this morning where messages bound for the Exchange 2003 users started looping between Exchange 2003 and Exchange 2010. The problem started as a result of changing the accepted domain
    type to 'internal relay domain' for the purposes of establishing SMTP namespace sharing with an external Exchange environment (different forest, let's call it FOREST2.AD). The expectation was that after changing the domain type from authoritative to 'internal
    relay domain', Exchange 2010 would route messages for unknown recipients to the external environment and that would be the only effect of the change. The message routing to the external environment worked completely OK. However, later we noticed that Exchange
    2003 stopped delivering messages to its local users and started routing them to Exchange 2010 which would route the messages back to Exchange 2003 as that's where the recipients existed, only to have Exchange 2003 send them back to Exchange 2010 again.
    The Send connector to route the messages, for the shared namespace, to the external environment used the Exchange 2010 server as the source server. It makes sense and is expected that Exchange 2003 would send messages for any unknown recipients to Exchange
    2010 for onward delivery via the Send connector. But it is not expected for Exchange 2003 to not deliver messages to its own users using the store driver and instead routing them on to Exchange 2010.
    We fixed the problem by reversing the change and not only changed the domain type back to authoritative but also removed the Send connector for the specified shared namespace. However, we do need to understand why this problem happened and how to stop it
    from happening.
    We did test the shared SMTP namespace configuration using a test domain before applying the change to the domain that is used for production email traffic. Test users on Exchange 2003 with email addresses on the test domain did not experience this looping
    problem. This has been tested again after the production domain experienced the problem and there is no looping for the test domain. The only difference I noticed between the configuration for the test domain and the production domain is that while both domains
    existed as accepted domains of type 'internal relay domain' in Exchange 2010, there was a difference in configuration in Exchange 2003 where the test domain was not present on the recipient policy at all and the production domain was present there.
    This also makes me wonder if Exchange 2003 and Exchange 2010 in the same organization keep a separate configuration to determine which domain they are authoritative for. When you install Exchange 2010, it does add all the domains on the recipient policies
    to the accepted domains configuration but any new domains you add in accepted domains in Exchange 2010 are not added to the legacy recipient policy object.
    Can someone please help clarify these grey areas and explain why the message looping was created and how to avoid it. I'm happy to provide any further information.
    Thanks
    Nauman.

    Hello,
    Why do you want to use the 'internal relay domain' authentication?
    Thanks,

  • How can I display my MS Outlook/Exchange 2010 Calendar events on my web application's calendar?

    I'm building a web (client) application (built in html/JavaScript/jQuery) that has a built-in calendar. I would like to pull in my Outlook/Exchange Calendar events
    and display them in my web application's calendar. What is the best way to do that from a JavaScript/jQuery environment? I've been searching all over for plugins or examples of how to talk to Exchange/Outlook and retrieve Calendar events but I haven't found
    a solution yet. We are currently using MS Office/Outlook/Exchange 2010. I don't need to modify the calendar events, just read them. (Note that I can't use an OWA Web Parts link
    to display the calendar in an iframe; I need to have access to the actual event data so I can include other UI elements that I need for my application.) Thanks
    in advance for the help!

    Hi,
    There's an old Java API for EWS, and you can access EWS with direct soap request to retrieve the data you want.

  • Change to Exchange 2010 after SP3, Update 5 installed

    After updating Exchange 2010 from SP3 Update 2 to Update 5, a change has occurred for users with SendAs and Full Access to other mailboxes. Version 14.3 (build 123.4).
    Before the Update, after giving a user these permissions to another user's mailbox, the mailbox would show in their Outlook 2010 client, and everything worked as expected.
    After Update 5 was installed, when users select the other user's mailbox, they get a message "the folders are not available," or the connection to the Exchange server is not working." They can access their own mailbox with no issues.
    The other mailbox has to be added to the Outlook client via Account Settings, Account Settings, Change, More Settings, Advanced tab, Add the other mailbox. The mailbox then shows up twice on the client, but only the one that has been added works,
    the original still gives the same error.

    Hi,
    I have seen some people have the same issue with you. After upgrading to Rollup 5, they need to add others' mailboxes that they have full access permission and send as permission manually on Outlook. But when they upgrade Outlook to 2010 SP2, this issue
    is solved. I recommend you upgrade your Outlook to 2010 SP2 and check the result.
    Besides, I'm not sure what changes after Rollup 5 lead to this issue, there is no official article explain it, thanks for your understanding.
    Hope it helps.

  • How to monitor particular individual Exchange 2010 mailbox

    Hi
    Is it possible to monitor a particular individual Exchange 2010 mailbox? If so please send me the script or steps to to accomplish this
    Donald D'souza (http://donald-scom.blogspot.com/)

    The Exchange 2010 MP has had some issues of late and is once again unavailable. Hopefully this should be rectified soon. Keep an eye on the Management Pack forum and someone should post there once it is back.
    I appreciate the Exchange team are looking for ways to get extra monitoring from SCOM and I'm certainly not saying you can't do mailbox monitoring with SCOM. I'm just saying be careful. I have seen one enterprise write a discovery to discover the
    mailboxes they wanted to monitor. The discovery captured data that changed every iteration that the discovery ran. They then wondered why SCOM stopped working, ignoring the fact that they had discovered thousands of objects whose properties changed every
    time discovery ran, causing huge numbers of state change events and massive database growth.
    If you are looking for in-depth exchange mailbox monitoring then SCOM is not the tool for it. Quest and Sirana do dedicated enterprise tools. If you take a look at the links and say that is what your team want then I'd suggest evaluating those
    products. Developing SCOM to deliver that would not be cost efficient.
    Hope you don't mind but I'll ask again - what specifically do you want to monitor? Mailbox Size? Number of emails sent \ received? size of message sent? destination? number of attachments? size of attachments? blocked messages? If you need deep detail
    along the lines of the following then you really need to evaluate the following:
    http://www.sirana.com/exchange/reporting
    If you end up writing scripts to do all the above then you will likely severely impact performance of either SCOM or your Exchange server or possibly both.
    Sadly (for budgeting) SCOM doesn't necessarily replace specialist tools - it just complements them. Likewise, if you want deep dive SQL then you'll still need Quest or Idera based tools. Probably fewer licenses and better targetted at servers with known
    issues.

    Any ideas how to do this?

    On the False side of your measure case, use a Property Node for each chart.  Property should be History Data, set it to write, and wire an empty array to it.  This will clear the graph.  I'd also use a shift register wired to a boolean so that you don't keep writing to the properties.  Set the boolean to true on the True side of your measure case.

  • Exchange 2010 SP3 /PrepareAD failing; "A reboot from a previous installation is pending. Please restart the system..." error

    I am attempting to prepare our Exchange 2010 Server (RTM) for an upgrade to SP3.
    When attempting to run "setup.com /PrepareAD" to prep the AD schema, the command fails and I receive the following error in the ExchangeSetup log:

    I am receiving this error when attempting to run "setup.com /PrepareAD" from either of our two GCs and I get the same error from both GCs, so the issue doesn't appear to be related to the individual servers.
    What should I be checking, to clear this error so the AD schema update can be performed?
    Environment
    Exchange:  Exchange Server 2010 RTM
    Server: Windows 2008 R2 (fully patched)
    Domain and Forest functionality: Windows 2008 R2 native

    One follow up:
    If I go into regedit, I see that under HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager  there is an entry from when I recent installed Google Chrome.
    The entry looks like:
    MultiString: PendingFileRenameOperation
    Value Data: \??\C:\Program FIles (x86)\Google\Chrome
    Is this "pending rename" what's causing SP3 to refuse to install, because it thinks the OS install state isn't 'clean'?

  • Mail & Exchange 2010, periodically hangs or stops receiving

    Subject pretty much says it all. The weird thing is I can login with OWA or check on my iPhone and see new messages. Why would iPhone be able to download messages when Mail can't?
    I have no problem with the connection on the machine running Mail. At the same time Mail won't download anything, I can open Safari, login to OWA, and see new messages.

    After having the same error ("opening mailbox - Requesting latest information" - hang) and fighting for months on my Mac (Lion) to solve it, including writing angry bug reports to Apple - I think I finally found the source of the problem:
    There was an old (invalid) certificate installed in Exchange (2007, in my case), enabled for SMTP.
    Nobody seems to care about this - including Snow Leopard Mail, Outlook and all iOS devices - but Lion Mail cared, and just stuck. Typically after some time - maybe sleep/wake or just a couple of hours - Mail was stuck and did not receive any new mails anymore, until I Force Quit it.
    I got the hint from another forum (somebody suggested changing the properties in the locally installed certificates in Lion - but this was not the solution) and after seeing the question popping up once in Mail Preferences (do you want to trust this (old) certificate).
    After removing the old certificate from Exchange (good luck with this admin user interface - no wonder we did not notice it) - everything works ok for me, already a day without any hangs.
    Hope it helps! (Let us know the outcome...)

  • Exchange 2010 and 2003 coexistence - all email from 2010 flowing through 2003
