ISINTEG - does not resolve errors
Thanks for the suggestions.
As for moving the mailboxes, that too is a problem:

Will keep on looking at this.

What do you do when ISINTEG reveals application level errors (right?) in your Exchange database but... cannot resolve them even after running this command several times?

Thank you for the reply and the references. They will be useful once I complete my transition to E2K10. Currently, however, EX10 is still running E2K7. I should have indicated that.

If ISInteg is not able to resolve the erros . I would Create a new database and move the users. Which in turn will have complete new intenal structure in the new store.

Will try. Also having problems moving some of the mailboxes - possibly due to permissions problem.

1. Isinteg log shows 0 fix 0 warning indicating that there are no errors in the information store that you specify.
2. Please check the application log if there are any logs with source ESE pointing to any database corruption .
3. Please run eseutil /g to perform deep integrity check on the database.
4. Please check disk space on the server.
5. Please run chkdsk in read only mode and see if it shows any errors on all the drives/partitions on this server.
Please find some useful links for your reference about how to
move the mailboxes from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2010

There is one test which still reports errors as shown below

If after running Isinteg multiple times you are unable to reduce the error count, you can consider that database not fit for a production environment (at which point you should
take the necessary steps to move the mailboxes to another store).

As of Exchange 2010 the well-known IsInteg tool was dropped. New-MailboxRepairRequest can be used to detect and fix mailbox corruption, per mailbox or per database. This functionality is an improvement over IsInteg The syntax of New-MailboxRepairRequest
is as follows (left common parameters like Confirm and WhatIf out):
new-MailboxRepairRequest [-Mailbox | -Database ] -CorruptionType [-DetectOnly] [-DomainController ]
