Author ISINTEG and Corrupt Store...

Good day,
I recently discovered that a specific user store was corrupted. What I
did to remedy the situation was export what I could out from the store out
to a PST and then delete the associated mailbox. I then created another
mailbox and imported from the PST. I am worried about more corruption, how
do I use the ISINTEG utility to verify that everything is ok? I know MS has
a article regarding the tool, but is there anything I can do to just test
the database without making modifications? The article I read is not very
clear to me.

Thanks,
M

Open your Exchange System Manager.
Dismount your mailbox store.
Open a command prompt and navigate to the exchsrvr\bin folder.
Run: ISINTEG -s ServerName -l -Test Alltests
Then, locate the ISINTEG.PRI file, and open it with NotePad.
Each test will tell you the number of errors and/or fixes it would have
made.

To fix these problems, run:

ISINTEG -s ServerName -l -fix -test alltests

If you see any fixes, run it again until all fixes have been made.

This is a generally safe procedure? How long would this take on a 20GB
store?

Thanks
