Did you check your connectors / message queues for held files -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Chinnery, Paul Sent: Tuesday, 29 August 2006 07:14 To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Priv grows 4 gig in 4 hours
Thank you, but yes, I am aware of the difference between Exchange white space and physical space. The partition our mail store is on has a 25 gig size so I never worry about running out of actual drive space as that is the only data that is stored on the drive. I thought about mail loop, too. Since our last stoppage (Admin. refuses to pay to upgrade to either enterprise or Ex2003 std with it's 75 gig limit), I create a mailbox report biweekly showing the size of each user's mailbox. I did look over the report and did not see any large increases in size. As to storage limits, sadly no, we don't. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Tim Harper Sent: Monday, August 28, 2006 3:06 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Priv grows 4 gig in 4 hours The free space reported in the event log entry is not actual physical hard drive space. It is space used by the database which would be freed by running an offline defrag. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Derek Harris Sent: Monday, August 28, 2006 1:55 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Priv grows 4 gig in 4 hours First thought is "mail loop." Did you check mailbox sizes to see if one was inordinately large? Do you have limits in place? -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Chinnery, Paul Sent: Monday, August 28, 2006 12:48 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Priv grows 4 gig in 4 hours Windows Server 2000 Exchange Std. 2000 sp3 Total number of users 150 Our priv store hit it's maximum limit of 16 gig on Sunday. Looking through the event logs I found that at 6 AM, after the maintenance had finished, Exch reported free space of 3968 megs. At 10 AM, the store limit had been hit. I am at a loss to understand how our store grew by about 4 gigabytes in 4 hours. Our's is not a particularly active environment, no more than what you would see with 150 users (about half of which use email quite a lot). Our anti-spam software (Mail Frontier, now SonicWall) gets the email first and then passes it onto the server so I don't believe it was a "spam flood." Can anyone shed some light onto where I might look for a cause for this? BTW, the other interesting thing about this was that the store did not dismount and people were able to connect. But mail delivery was slow.
