Thought it might be worth mentioning that I have also tried running a repair(/p option) on the database and it quits at the same point with the same error, does anyone know of a filesize limit within eseutil for Exchange 5.5? Perhaps theres a patch to extend its functionallity.
Cheers -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Neil Doody Sent: 11 January 2007 15:35 To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Eseutil /d - assertion failure The resulting file when copied over the original private information store file would not mount, the database was inconsistent so I'm guessing it didn't finish the defrag and the temporary file was incomplete. Results for this problem on google are very scarse, one other person I found was running it on a 300GB 5.5 database which crapped out at 50%, ours is crapping out at 70% on a 210GB file so that kind of tallies up that ESEUTIL for one reason or another simply cant fix files so large. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Neil Doody Sent: 11 January 2007 09:38 To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Eseutil /d - assertion failure When running eseutil /d to defragment an Exchange 5.5 database of around 210GB in size, getting the following error :- "Assertion failed: dPercentage >=0, file ..\edbutil.cxx line 563". The closest KB I have found is the following :- http://www.kbalertz.com/Q280792/Defragmenting.Large.Database.Remote.Outp ut.Causes.Assertion.Failure.aspx This is a different scenario but the same error, it suggests that defragging a remote STM file > 4GB results in this error. Whilst this is a different scenario it suggests that defragmentation has completed but there has been an error when copying the temporary database back to the information store, so this would suggest possibly the temporary database file that exists is intact/defragged and ready to roll all it needs is copying over? I am giving it a test on a dummy machine this morning but its going to take some hours to copy the file over, in the mean time if anyone else knows any more details of this error then that would be marvelous. The defrag process appears to have bombed out at just over 70%, I know the indicator bar actually demonstrates the different stages of the whole process, when it gets to 70% is this around the area in which the defrag process has finished and the remainder is just the copying process?
