Title: Message
DB Maintenance and a defrag run automatically every night (check your logs for Event 1221).  Any whitespace recovered from either the auto defrag or running ESEUTIL will be used again very shortly through normal server use. 
 
The space recovered (which again will get used again) do *not* balance the out downtime required to run the tool, and the potential to seriously corrupt your Store.

Seriously?

 

This server has been up for 4 years, and I am pretty sure it has never been run. Does it fragment like a normal hard drive on a workstation or server would, which needs regular maintenance?

 

Exch 5.5 SP4

Only when necessary? 

Only during DR procedures?

Only under direction of PSS?

Only if you're encountering the 16GB DB limit in the Standard version?

What is the recommended calendar for using this defrag tool?

 

Once a month?

Twice a year?

Once a decade?
