Hello all,
I would like to ask everyone's suggestions, I asked about
offline defrag a couple days ago and many of you were very helpful. Thanks
for all your great information. I have exchange 5.5 sp4 running on windows
nt srv sp6a and my secondary partition where the exchange database is
located is approximately 12.9gig in total size. I have 1.98 gigs of space
left on this drive and it is diminishing very quickly about 200mb a week.
The priv.edb file is 8,791,048 in size and the pub.edb is 946,184 in size.
Recently I have archived alot of emails from peoples mailboxes, a few gigs
at least. Also in the past other people have left our company and I deleted
their mailboxes which were pretty big usually close to 1 gig in size. Since
I have done alot of deleting I haven't really noticed any space on this
secondary partition freed up. So last night I archived about 1.5gigs of
email and came in today and noticed that I haven't gained any space back on
this partition. In the event viewer it shows this about my online defrag
report.
The database has 53 megabytes of free space after online defragment has
terminated event 1221.
Event 1207: cleanup of items past retention date for Item Recovery is
complete
Start: 20843 items; 445797 Kbytes
end: 20742 items; 445487 Kbytes
>From the info above would anyone consider doing an offline defragment of the
exchange database? I have never done this before and would like your
suggestions, thanks very much for your time.
RGDS
Rich
