I understood the db to convert deleted items/mailboxes, etc. to "white space." when it does the IS maintence each night. >From there, is the white space re-used as needed? This was my understanding . . . or will it not reclaim that white space for future use until a defrag is done. I have about 600 mb left on my priv.edb volume. I have moved about half of the mailboxes off of this server on to another to stave off any further growth. However, if the above is not true, this wont help me . . . having a 40gb priv.edb I am not looking forward to doing a defrag . . . :( at that point I would rather add on more disk . . . thoughts? tia!!
