SUMMARY
When you restore an offline store from a Microsoft Exchange Server 4.0 computer, with or without Microsoft Exchange Server Service Pack 1 (SP1) installed, onto a Microsoft Exchange Server 4.0 computer with Microsoft Exchange Service Pack 2 (SP2) installed, you will receive the following error:

1087 The information store was restored from an offline backup. Run ISINTEG -patch before starting the information store.

1005 Unable to start the Microsoft Exchange Information store. Error 1011

When you run ISINTEG -patch, you will receive an EcBadVersion error.

If the store was recovered from an online backup, the following events will be logged:

Unable to recover the database because error 0x00000451 occurred after a restore operation.

Unable to initialize the Microsoft Exchange Information Store service. Error 1105.



MORE INFORMATION
This is because a new version of Mdbrest.dll was provided with SP2. To workaround this problem, follow these steps:
 * 1) Rename Mdbrest.dll in the Exchsrvr\bin directory to Mdbrest.new.
 * 2) Copy Mdbrest.dll from a Microsoft Exchange Server version 4.0 with or without SP1 (there was no change to this file in SP1) to the Exchsrvr\bin directory.
 * 3) If the store was recovered from an off-line backup you must run ISINTEG -PATCH. This will update the store.
 * 4) Delete Mdbrest.dll and rename Mdbrest.new to Mdbrest.dll.
 * 5) Start the Microsoft Exchange Information Store.
