dangermouse Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 Hi All, We're trying to recover just the Inbox of a single mailbox. We get the error 'Exchange Mailboxes on msexchange is in use by another operation. Wait for it to be available?' Retrospect is not doing anything else. We have set up a Recovery Storage Group, with restore allowed. Restore is not allowed to the actual Mailstore. Any idea where we've gone wrong? Thanks.

Mayoff Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 Have you tried doing a database restore to the recovery storage group? What if you try to restore that inbox to a different mailbox? What happens? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dangermouse Posted February 5, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 Didn't try a database restore, no. Didn't seem worth the risk! I guess I wasn't confident enough the restore would go to the recovery group. I did try restoring to a couple of other mailboxes, same result.

Mayoff Posted February 5, 2010 Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 Have you tried rebooting the exchange server to see if this "busy" process frees itself? Any errors in the Windows Event Logs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
