Hello James,
Sorry to keep you waiting!
I have discussed with colleagues, and our conclusion is, you can restore to
alternate location and then pick whichever event log you want to keep and
which ones you don't. However, if the providers are not there, then the
evt file will not contain the descriptions for the errors. For example: an
Exchange server 2003 saves out the application.evt file, open it on a
Windows XP machine and you will not have a whole lot of information.
If you have any further questions or concerns, please feel free to let me
know. I am looking forward to hearing from you!
Best regards,
Brandy Nee

Hi there Brandy,
Thanks very much for your continued interest and assistance. At this
stage we are trying to find a system to back up the event logs so that
they can be restored without restoring the entire system. I think that
the best way to do this may be to save the event logs onto a network
share as .evt files so that they are then backed-up as part of the
regular procedure.
In the mean time is there any way to recover the corrupted event log
file. I know that I have sent .pst files from Outlook 2000 which have
corrupted when they reached the 2GB size limit to Microsoft to have
them recovered, would this be possible with a .evt file?
Also would they have been backed up as part of our regular ASR backup?
I know they are stored in the system state in our regular full backup,
I assume that this is the same with the ASR but have learnt the hard
way that assuming such things is a recipe for disaster in this job!
Once again thank you very much for your help.
