XADM: -1022 or -1026 Error Verifying Consistency of Databases

• Microsoft Exchange Server, version 5.0

SYMPTOMS

If you attempt to use the Edbutil.exe program with the /C switch to verify the consistency of the Dir.edb or Priv.edb file, a -1022 error indicating that a disk I/O error has occurred may be displayed. A -1026 error indicating that a record has exceeded the maximum size may be displayed instead of a -1022 error when you attempt to verify the consistency of the Priv.edb file.

If you use the Edbutil.exe program with the /D, /DS, and /R switches to defragment the Dir.edb or Priv.edb file, the defragmentation process finishes successfully. However, if you then attempt to verify the consistency of the file, you experience the symptoms described above again.
