I apologize if this winds up being the third copy of this message; for some reason, I'm not seeing any of my posts sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED], so I'm trying this through the web site. Anyway...
So I have a question, then (but first, a little background): We're getting the "disk is at or near capacity" messages since we have only 887Mb "free" on our 17Gb partition (which has the priv and pub edb's). I immediately archived and deleted about 3Gb from public folders. Now I really don't want to make a habit of ignoring disk capacity messages like this. What options do I have to reduce the size of the .edb's? > (oh, that and don't bother compacting, white space and free hard drive > space are one just as good as another...) > > -----Original Message----- > From: Tom Meunier=20 > Posted At: Thursday, February 28, 2002 4:24 PM > Posted To: MSExchange Mailing List > Conversation: free up space priv.edb > Subject: RE: free up space priv.edb > > > Everything you said was correct, for E2k and E5.5 > > > -----Original Message----- > From: Jean-Francois Bourdeau [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]=20 > Posted At: Thursday, February 28, 2002 4:00 PM > Posted To: MSExchange Mailing List > Conversation: free up space priv.edb > Subject: free up space priv.edb > > > AM I right by saying that even if users delete stuff in their mailbox > that priv.edb is not getting smaller ? > > That if a user delete 500MB of stuff that the priv.edb will still be the > same size but if a new user receive 300megs, priv.edb will not grow ? > > Even if we use the mailboxManager to clean up everything are we force to > compact priv.edb, that need 2 times it's size to be compacted ?
