For Exchange V5.5, eseutil takes about 1 hour per 10 GB to do an offline defrag if you ever get into trouble. I know this is not what you asked for, but it is pertinent information to have when trying to decide what to do about growing databases.

I was wondering when an exchange database would be considered huge and one should think about archiving solution. Maybe we don't need archving. At the moment the store is 60GB. Assuming we put in all the PSTs lying around on workstations and servers that would grow instantly to 240GB and continue growing from then on. So, what is a large exchange db? Do I really need archiving? thanks regards Uso _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Web Interface: http://intm-dl.sparklist.com/cgi-bin/lyris.pl?enter=exchange&text_mode=&lang =english To unsubscribe send a blank email to %%email.unsub%% Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe via postal mail, please contact us at: Jupitermedia Corp.
