We had a catastrophic failure where all that remains is a single edb file. No backups. No log files.
The database that remains is on the "passive" copy. The "active" copy is missing, but the server is active.
The Exchange console reports that the edb file needs to be reseeded, however there is no source to reseed from.
How do I make the "invalid" database file (missing logs) valid?
How do I make exchange recognize this as a valid database to use as a primary?
