2010 Disable circular logging with no storage groups

Question

I have SBS 2008 and the backup wizard will not complete because of the error Disable circular logging in Exchange. I had previously removed most of exchange because of disk space including the databases.
So there are no storage groups to remove them using the console . Any suggestions would be fantastic Cheers Todd

Hi 15topster,
There are no storage groups in Exchange 2010 onwards, databases are directly under Organization\Servers and logs are generated for individual DBs seperately.
You should be able to get the option under Database properties or use below shell command to do it.

To use the Exchange Management Console to disable circular
logging:
1.     
In the console tree,
navigate to Organization Configuration |
Mailbox.
2.     
In the result pane, on
the Database Management tab, select the database you want to
configure.
3.     
In the action pane,
under the database name, click Properties.
4.     
Click on the
Maintenance tab
5.     
Clear
the Enable circular logging check box.
6.     
Click
OK.
7.   To make your changes
to the circular logging settings effective, Restart the
Microsoft Exchange Information Store service, or dismount and then mount all of the databases in the storage group.
To disable circular logging using Exchange Management Shell, run the
following command:
Set-MailboxDatabase -Identity "Database Name" -CircularLoggingEnabled $false
