Our company had 2 Exchange email servers until one crashed last week and couldn't be repaired. So we had to move each mailbox from the old server onto our other server. The server that crashed was a Windows 2003 Small Business Server (which was named "ambitionsvr") and we were trying to move the mailbox onto an Exchange 2000 server (named "exchange1"). These servers were not on the same domain or linked in any way so we tried to restore each mailbox by using Veritas backup exec v8. When we try to restore we selected the option "Redirect exchange sets" and put in the name exchange1 for the server and also the name of the mailbox to goto. When we goto run the restore job it loads the media then says "running" but then fails with the error message "Access is denied" What do you need to do to restore an individual mailbox to a different server ? Many thanks in advance
Same domain, same administrative group. graeme.hendry@whitehallsystems.com wrote: >Our company had 2 Exchange email servers until one crashed last week >and couldn't be repaired.

The mailbox isnt from the same domain. If it was the user account would be visible and wouldnt need to be re-created
Hi, Your best bet would be to use a recovery server as explained here: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;813337 Leif skrev i en meddelelse news:1130954049.330857.15400@g44g2000cwa.googlegroups.com... > The mailbox isnt from the same domain.
