| Description | A fatal database error occurred, the database recovery operation was not successful and manual correction will be required. Details can be found in the file: <file name>. Please contact Microsoft Technical Support. [<value> <value> <value> <value>] (16) |
| Event Information | According To Microsoft: Cause: The Microsoft Exchange Server disk may be full or a disk error may have occurred. The message transfer agent (MTA) service will stop if the disk is full. Resolution: 1. Read the error file specified in the message for more information. 2. If the Microsoft Exchange Server disk is full, delete any unnecessary files. If you suspect a disk error, run Chkdsk. Verify that the \Exchsrvr\Mtadata directory exists. Stop and restart the MTA service. If the error persists, run the Mtacheck.exe utility. Stop the MTA service, open a command prompt, and type Mtacheck/v /f c:\mta.txt. 3. If Mtacheck removes objects from a database queue, it places each damaged object in a Db*.dat file in \Exchsrvr\Mtadata\Mtacheck.out. Ensure that the required DAT files are in the correct MTADATA folder. 4. Check the MTADATA paths in the registry under: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\MSExchangeMTA\Parameters If the files are missing or corrupted, then replace them from the bootenv folder on the Exchange CD. |
