XADM: Jet97 Database Header Does Not Contain Last Repaired Date

• Microsoft Exchange Server, version 5.5

SYMPTOMS

When you use the Eseutil.exe program with the /MH switch to dump the header of a Jet97 database to a file, one of the fields in the header is Repair Count. This field indicates the number of times the database has been repaired using Eseutil.exe with the /P switch. However, the header does not contain a field that indicates when the database was last repaired. Knowing when the database was last repaired can be helpful when you are troubleshooting a problem that may be related to a damaged database.
