Hello Scott,

I am not optimistic, sorry.

What our Services people tried to do on the previous occasion was to remove
index entries for the failed full backup, in hopes that we could use the
previous full backup.  If the logfiles are still intact in an unbroken line
from the previous full backup to the point of the failure, then you should
have everything that you need to replay them.  They were having difficulty
in getting that to work; I never heard that they succeeded, so I assume that
they did not.

The Exchange Server will not start the replay process (the hard recovery)
without both the .edb and .stm files -- it is a lack of a pointer to a .stm
file that is giving us this "The parameter is incorrect" status from the
recovery process.  And it will not replay past any gap in the transaction
log sequence.

Thanks,
_Scott

It looks like the saveset did not actually complete successfully. It
looks like it did grab 10GB of the .edb file, though. There must be some
way to get at what it did get? And some way to get at the data we have
from transaction logs?

Hello Scott,

Status 0x80070057 is a MAPI error indicating "The parameter is
incorrect."  Status 0xc7ff1005 is from the Streaming Backup API (aka
ESEbcli2), indicating "Error returned from a callback function call."

I have only seen this symptom once before, about a year ago.  At that
time, we eventually found that the recovery was being attempted against
a saveset that had not completed successfully: the .edb file was there,
but the .stm file had never been saved.

Please take a look at the nsrxchsv.log file, on the Exchange Server, in
the ...\nsr\bin\applogs directory, and verify whether the backup was
successful.

Thanks,
_Scott

I'm trying to restore an Exchange 2003 database. The Exchange User gets
to the point where it's says it's starting the restore, then I get the
errors below. Any ideas what might be causing this?
