In California, if your car fails smog, is there a cap on repair costs after which the state will register it?

April 26th, 2011 2 comments

I’m pretty sure my car will fail it’s smog test for the registration renewal. Last year I spent $600 to get it to pass smog.

There used to be a provision in California that after you spent so much in emissions repairs, they would allow you to register it anyway. Does that repair cap still exist? How much is it? How do I apply for that waiver?

I checked the CA DMV site, but could find nothing on it.

It is still there. However the provision is for a one time repair and you are not allowed the same deal each smog year. That is my understanding. However you know how the laws change here every time you turn around.

Network Shared Exchange Database May Get Corrupted

April 2nd, 2011 No comments

Microsoft has designed Exchange server database ideally to work on block level file access via a locally attached system. Placing it on shared network raise chances of corruption and hence EDB repair may be required. This is due to the reason that when this database is attempted to access using file-sharing protocols, there may be few file system features that Exchange Server doesn’t support. However, Exchange 2000 and later versions may show unmounting like problems with the database placed on networked devices; the earlier versions are out of this issue.

However, there are few administrative interfaces to change the database and transaction log file locations, which Exchange Server resist using the database on network But if you get some errors related to file locations and path, don’t force it to set to some invalid location by playing with the registry. This is because, at start you may find a good running database, but the condition may go wrong due to heavy traffic or unreliable network. Here the chances of EDB corruption may rise up to great extent.

On top of this, editing registry can yield the following error message:

“An absent, corrupted, or invalid registry entry was encountered. Reinstall Microsoft Exchange Server. [800FF324]”

Resolve this by redirecting the valid locations for database, instead of recommended reinstallation. Whereas, if you face database corruption with the network placed database use Exchange Server repair mechanism.

Use inbuilt Eseutil utility, if you don’t can digest losing the data in the corrupted pages or else look for some third party help. EDB recovery software retain the feature to impart safe procedure via their read-only conduct. They have the scanning power to offer  Exchange Server recovery for the database.

You would find an interactive interface to work with, hence EDB repair proves easy enough to be carried out by even the less technically skilled user. Choose the one, which is high in skills and best in results.

Stellar Phoenix Mailbox Exchange Recovery is the product to grant maximum Exchange Server recovery. This  EDB recovery program is valuable for Exchange Server 5.5, 2000 and 2003.

You would find all the e-mails, notes, journals, tasks, appointments and other objects, repaired and restored with this Exchange Server repair program. The interactivity of the interface is suitable to get easy EDB repair.
