Viewing a Detailed Report Log File

Whenever a remote storage tool is used to move Exchange databases or transaction logs to a
Windows Storage Server computer, a Detailed Report log file is saved. The Detailed Report
describes the current configuration of storage groups on the Exchange server, and the status of
the shares that are currently being used to host Exchange databases and transaction logs. The log
files are numbered sequentially and given the name Detailed Report - 01.log, Detailed Report -
02.log, and so forth. Each log file is stored in the My Documents\Windows Storage Server Logs\
folder of the current user. Only the most recent 99 logs are retained for the user.

To view the current configuration of storage groups at any time, you can use
WSSExchMove.exe to display a Detailed Report that contains the current configuration.

To view a Detailed Report

At any command prompt on the Exchange server, enter wssexchmove /i

This command displays the current configuration of storage groups on the Exchange server
in the command windows in Detailed Report format.

-Or-

From the Remote Storage Wizard, on the completion page, select the View detailed report
when the wizard closes
check box to view a log file that contains the current configuration
when the wizard completes.

To view an existing Detailed Report log file

In the My Documents\Windows Storage Server Logs\, open the log file of interest. Each log
file is named Detailed Report - n.log, where n is a sequentially assigned number that uniquely
identifies the log in the My Documents directory tree of the Exchange administrator who
performed the move operation.

Contents of the Detailed Report

The Detailed Report log file includes five sections, which provide detailed information about the
locations and status of the transaction logs and databases for Exchange storage groups on the
local Exchange server. For a cluster of Exchange servers, the report gives the configuration for
each virtual server in the cluster. Table A.1 describes the sections of the Detailed Report log file.
