RE: Information Store Limit

[Lefkovics, William]

If you recover enough space within the database (perhaps 6GB+), an offline defrag would not be a bad idea.    Otherwise, yor plan is certainly sound.  Do you have a formal mailbox quota policy in place?   William   -----Original Message----- From: Randy Hensel [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, December 13, 2001 3:57 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Information Store Limit I am running Windows NT 4.0 SP 6a and Exchange 5.5 SP 4 (not Enterprise) I have run up against the 16GB information store limit.  I have managed to the IS started again and would like to take steps to reduce the IS size.  My plan is to:   Move data to PST files delete unused mailboxes reduce deleted item retention   Is this a good plan? Should I also do an off line defrag? Any thing else?   Thanks   Randy Hensel, MCP, Network Systems Administrator Coffey Communications, Inc.
