Probably nothing needs to be done. You don't see a completion event that tells you the amount of white space?

Well, it doesn't seem to matter if we schedule an online defrag or if we just run one right then on the fly it only runs for a few minutes and then stops and says it's terminating. I didn't even see any errors in the event log. Is it actually running and doing anything? I'm told that if it were really doing anything it would run for an hour or more. We've been having problems with it running for a few months now. We've called Microsoft and they say we have a corrupted IS but we're not ready to rebuild. We're looking for a way to force an online defrag outside of Exchange Admin from a command line prompt. If we have to schedule that first that's fine but we want to kick off ourselves. Not sure if this is possible. Also we do not want to do an offline defrage eseutil/edbutil because that will require taking the services down unless we absolutely have to. Is an offline our only recourse? If there is corruption in the database when you do an offline, will it delete those corrupt files? If so, data loss is expected in an offline.
