SUMMARY
=======
When you restore an offline backup to your Microsoft Exchange Server computer,
you must run isinteg -patch prior to starting the Microsoft Exchange Information
Store service. For additional information, please see the following article in
the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
Q149238 XADM: Information Store Fails To Start With -1011 Error
When you run isinteg -patch, it may appear as if the isinteg process has stopped
processing information. At the command prompt, you will see the cursor blinking
directly under the following text:
C:\exchsrvr\bin>isinteg -patch
Microsoft Exchange Information Store Integrity Checker v5.5.1960.3
Copyright (c) 1986-1997 Microsoft Corp. All rights reserved.

This is where the cursor will be blinking.
MORE INFORMATION
================
For each object in both the private and public information stores, isinteg
-patch replaces the Globally Unique Identifiers (GUIDs) used by the restored
information stores. Isinteg -patch generates new GUIDs for each object, as well
as patch replication information to prevent incorrect backfilling.
If your private or public information store contains a large number of objects,
it significantly increase the length of time it takes for isinteg -patch to
finish. Wait for isinteg -patch to finish on its own; do not cancel or kill the
Isinteg.exe process.
