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? -----Original Message----- From: Tom Meunier [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, February 28, 2002 5:25 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: free up space priv.edb (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 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]] 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 ? (because a new priv.edb is built ) JF Is is the same for Ex 2000 and ex 5.5 ? _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
