XADM: Public Folder Hierarchy Comes From Pub.edb (169639)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Exchange Server 4.0
- Microsoft Exchange Server 5.0
- Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5
This article was previously published under Q169639 SUMMARY
The public folder hierarchy as seen through the Microsoft Exchange Server
Administrator program is contained in the public folder database (Pub.edb).
There is no public folder hierarchy representation in the directory.
MORE INFORMATION
This information is important to remember when restoring a public
information store from backup. Because the hierarchy is not in the
directory, it will probably be different if a previous public folder
database is restored. After a restore is done, the public folder hierarchy
will eventually synchronize with the existing hierarchy in the organization
via back-fill requests during replication.
The only public folder objects stored in the Exchange Server directory
(Dir.edb) are objects for the public folders stored on the server where
that directory is also located. These can be original or replicated copies
of a given public folder.
