I have a question about Exchange 2007 that maybe someone can answer for me. We are starting to look into Exchange 2007. We currently have our faculty/staff deployed on Exchange which accounts for about 8,000 mailboxes on 4 backend servers with about 9 stores total size of 433 gig with each store no larger than 50 gig or so. Users have a total of 100 meg per mailbox. Our students are located on a proprietary mail system which can accommodate the 75,000 users with 50 meg stores. One of the reasons we did not deploy students on Exchange, was the scalability issue and the number of servers and stores that would have to be deployed to accommodate the number of users we are talking about. The other issue was restriction on the size of the DB's in the advent a corruption occurs and the time to run a repair on a database.
In 2007 is there still the underlying recommendation to keep DB sizes to a smaller size in case a corruption occurs? Anyone know if the ISINTEG has been revamped at all to get better throughput? Currently we try and keep the size of a DB to about 50 gig. I recall that the ISINTEG is jet oriented and could only process about 4gig to 6 gig per hour.
