      @JaredBusch What is the error in the Windows Event Logs?

      Any mention of Fragmentation?

        Damnit.

        Forgot to restart EMS as admin after the reboot.
        Fucking EMS, no idea why it ever executes without self elevating..

        Running recovery again.

                That works with /d not /r

                  the soft recovery succeeded
                  36c940c6-3b19-4b85-b6a8-a76ae31ed76d-image.png

                  But the system still reports dirty shutdown. so on to hard recovery with /p

                    Ever done a forklift recovery?

                    Also, to get mail flowing set up a Dial Tone database.

                            Final verdict, it completed and showed clean shutdown.

                            I deleted all the log files at this point and the database mounted.

                            Email flow resumed around 4pm with no lost email as the spam filter kicked delayed messages in response to inbound email.
