1) Probably due to the log files filling up if the virus was trying to send lots of 
mail. check to see where your log files are held, and the time stamps on them. These 
should clear on the next full, exchange aware, backup.

2) edb & stm files hold copies of the same data in different formats (simplified 
version), so will added up to be more than the individual users mailboxes.

Subject: Priv1.edb and stm



Hi, 
Exch 2k on sbs2k - all SP'd up
I had a little scare earlier on with a simultaneous virus alert on one
user and a disk space warning from my server which turned out to be
totally unconnected however while I was trouble shooting a noticed a
couple of odd things:
1)      disk space on the server was decreasing rapidly from 8gb > 7.5 >
6.5 gb in the space of about 5 mins - anyone experienced this before?  

2)      my priv1.edb is @ 7.2 gb while the stm file was at 2.9gb.  I
looked at my users mailboxes and the total size of their mailboxes was
under 6gb.  Why would the       the two priv files be more than my users
mailboxes if the edb + stm = information store?  I'm probably missing
something here as I'm still pretty new to exch2k?

TIA
Rob
