A well-maintained Exchange Server is very crucial for the functioning of all organizations. However, it is not easy to maintain and administer Microsoft Exchange Server.

1.Performance Issues due to Difficulties in Resolving ACL Entries

Exchange performance can be affected by the difficulties in resolving Access Control List (ACL) entries. Before allowing an Exchange user to access public folders, the Information Store checks the access type the user is given, by reading the Access Control List (ACL). The difficulties in accessing and reading this list can slow down the Exchange performance and can affect the entire performance of the Exchange Server.

2.Information Store File Damage due to Hardware Issues

Information store file damage issues are directly related to the Exchange Server hardware. They include information store damages, file level damages, errors caused by the operations of some tools like online backup tools, issues due to damaged, defective, outdated, and incompatible hardware components etc.

3.Missing or Corrupted Exchange Information Store Transaction Log Files

If you get an error message ‘An internal processing error has occurred. Try restarting the Exchange System Manager or the Microsoft Exchange Information Store service, or both. ID no: c1041724’ as you try to mount a mailbox or a public store, you can presume that the transaction log is missing or corrupted. The Exchange information store will not mount in that case.

4.Exchange Information Store Database Size Reaches 16 GB

The standard versions of Exchange have an upper size limit of 16 GB on Exchange information store databases. When the combined size of EDB and STM files reaches this limit, Exchange inflation store cannot mount.

5.Issues Created by Antivirus or Backup Software

The operation of antivirus software or backup software can cause issues like mailbox data loss, Microsoft Exchange Information Store service starting issues, Exchange information store database files corruption, or abnormal exit of Microsoft Exchange Information Store service. All these affect the normal functioning of the Exchange Server.
