Hi, I've looked all over for this answer and I want to verify it.
I've inherited an Exchange 2013 server and have to copy an overlarge journal DB off to PST and then delete it.
That's fairly straight forward. The question I have is HOW to create a new DB? Does creating a new journal user create a new DB? Higher ups want to know before I touch it.
Also, can we suspend the message queues such that messages coming in and heading out wait while I set up a new journal and journal DB and then release them so that the new journal takes over?
I won't even be able to see the system until the day I am to do the work as it's at a remote site without remote access.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
