Pfooey! I have several stores that are well over 50gb each. No problems with cycling the store, rebooting the boxes, performing backups (and restores) etc. . . You just have to know WTF you're doing. Hey - didn't you once claim to be an expert in Exchange 5.5? Darcy -----Original Message----- From: Mark Hanji [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, October 01, 2002 1:36 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Re: IS 70GB and growing.... Hello. I have been told that Exchange 5.5 with IS bigger than 50G is VERY bad. It means there is big chance the IS won't start after restart..... I am wondering if this is true, meaning, this is an undocument limitation, and should I be afraid to have IS above 70G? The IS is on EMC. The server is very very strong and acts very fast....
