You certainly could make a batch file or a script that would stop your information store, and kick off the appropriate Exchange tools. However, when you're performing operations like this against a database, it's probably something you want to monitor since each step is dependent upon the results from the previous step.


In short we haven't seen a successful script or batch file to date and most likely because of the complexity of the issues, i.e. proper steps, result codes, timing, etc. We have worked with several clients that have attempted this type of operation and for one reason or another it just simply didn't work out for them. Some that have come close want to know why GOexchange is able to obtain better results and the simple answer is that GOexchange contains built in expert knowledge and processes acquired over the years for consistent, safe & flawless maintenance every time.
