I do follow your logic on "if it ain't used, don't run it!". I subscribe to that myself. Sometimes great care has to be taken when determining which services are necessary and which are not. I have had a couple of interesting experiences disabling services on Exchange 2000. :-)
Yep, the IMS puts all inbound mail in to the private information store, so it is required if the server is running an IMS. -----Original Message----- From: Paul Hutchings [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Posted At: Friday, February 14, 2003 9:15 AM Posted To: Exchange Technical Mailing List Conversation: Deleting both Information Stores? Subject: RE: Deleting both Information Stores? Misguided logic I think - if I don't need to use does it need to be there was my theory, but playing with the IMS and the event service shows they (appear to) need to be there even if they're empty. regards Paul -----Original Message----- From: McBee, Jim [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 14 February 2003 19:02 To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Deleting both Information Stores? [bcc] Paul: Yes, both of the stores can be deleted, but I have never had to delete them both at the same time. Just out of curiosity, why do you want to delete both stores? Couldn't shutting down the Information Store service accomplish the same thing? (Unless the services you are running depend on the IS?)

Subject: Deleting both Information Stores? New 5.5 SP4 server, it's just going to run connectors. I've deleted the Private IS, now I want to remove the Public IS. The Paul Robichaux implies they can both be deleted, but when I try to do so I get the message "You cannot remove the last information store from a server". Any ideas, or can it just not be done? regards, Paul -- Paul Hutchings Network Administrator, MIRA Ltd.
