Ok got the go ahead to add 2 drives. I'll add the drives mirror and then run 5.5 
optimization to move to new drives. I had just installed exchange svp 4, I would have 
thought I had already rec'd latest ver of store!! Will check. The system was running 
CA av but I stopped all the services for CA. Store still pegged.

1.  You might make sure you have the latest version of store.exe.

2.  Exmerge out the data.  Mount a blank store.  Merge it back in.

3.  Otherwise, contact MS and have them take a user dump when the store is pegged.  
They'll be able to review it and see what is causing the store spike.  Then they will 
probably have you exmerge out the data, mount a blank store, and merge it back in.  ;)

Conversation: hard drive space
Subject: hard drive space

exchange 5.5 sp4 nt 4.0 sp6 how much free space should remain on drive where edb's 
are. I know to do an offline defrag you need space equal to the databases to perform 
this function. Currently databases are 6 gb and 1 gb with only 1.5 gb free disk space 
remaining. Store pegs cpu at 100% every 2 days. A reboot takes care of cpu for the 
next 2 days. Databases are not growing at increased rate. disabled av sw. Big problem. 
Biggest problem for trouble shooting for us is it takes 2 days for the store service 
to consume cpu. Usually my next step would be to replace databases with new ones to 
see if they are the problem as per MS. But I can't do this for 2 days or more. Need 
better Ideas.

RE: hard drive space

2003-07-09 Thread Pennell, Ronald B.
Matt, you actually need more than the database size.   Say, 1.2 times.  You can use 
network connected disk space to do the offline defrag.  Might take awhile depending on 
network speed.  Or even attach a larger drive to your system for temp storage.

2003-07-09 Thread Roger Seielstad
That's not entirely true.

What you need is non-whitespace + 10%(+/- a bit), not current database +
10%.

The defrag process creates a new database and copies the data from the old
file into the new one, then replaces the old one with the new one.

 That's not entirely true.
 
 What you need is non-whitespace + 10%(+/- a bit), not current
 database +
 10%.
 
 The defrag process creates a new database and copies the data
 from the old
 file into the new one, then replaces the old one with the new one.

RE: hard drive space

2003-07-09 Thread Martin Blackstone
There are command switches that enable you to redirect it to another drive.
You can also redirect it to a mapped drive on another box. This will of
course affect the performance of the defrag though.

  Subject:hard drive space
  
  exchange 5.5 sp4 nt 4.0 sp6 how much free space should remain 
  on drive where
  edb's are. I know to do an offline defrag you need space 
 equal to the
  databases to perform this function. Currently databases are 6 
  gb and 1 gb
  with only 1.5 gb free disk space remaining. Store pegs cpu at 
  100% every 2
  days. A reboot takes
  care of cpu for the next 2 days. Databases are not growing at 
  increased
  rate. disabled av sw. Big problem.
  Biggest problem for trouble shooting for us is it takes 2 
  days for the store
  service to consume cpu. Usually my next step would be to 
  replace databases
  with new ones to see if they are the problem as per MS. But I 
  can't do this
  for 2 days or more. Need better Ideas.

You can also run eseutil locally on a non-exchange server that has space on
any databases copied over from the prod server.

 That's not entirely true.

 What you need is non-whitespace + 10%(+/- a bit), not current
 database +
 10%.

 The defrag process creates a new database and copies the data
 from the old
 file into the new one, then replaces the old one with the new one.

RE: hard drive space - OT Story

2003-07-09 Thread Bob Sadler
Just wanted to pass on this little tale of mine:

A while back, my boss in his infinite wisdom, decided to install some
software for his APC Backup Units on the Exchange/Web server.

While I frown on him installing anything more on this machine, like I
said, he's the boss.  Today though, when I came into work, he asks me,
What is that pbeserver.exe process, it's eating up CPU time.  I said,
I don't know, will look into it.

Well, it turns out that pbeserver.exe is the service that runs the APC
software, and apparently it was stuck in an infinite loop.  Not only
that, but it's data file had grown to 8.01GB.  Now, the only thing that
saved us on not having exchange crash was that my boss accidentally
installed this software on the Web share instead of where he usually
likes to install programs, the Exchange share.

So, the moral of this story is, for those of you that have complete
control over your boxes, don't install anything that isn't priority #1
necessary.  For those of you that have bosses like mine, well, try and
teach them the best you can :)

 That's not entirely true.

 What you need is non-whitespace + 10%(+/- a bit), not current database

 + 10%.

 The defrag process creates a new database and copies the data from the

 old file into the new one, then replaces the old one with the new one.

  You will need scratch space = current priv size + 10%.

  exchange 5.5 sp4 nt 4.0 sp6 how much free space should remain on
  drive where edb's are. I know to do an offline defrag you need space
 equal to the
  databases to perform this function. Currently databases are 6 gb and

  1 gb with only 1.5 gb free disk space remaining. Store pegs cpu at 
  100% every 2 days. A reboot takes
  care of cpu for the next 2 days. Databases are not growing at
  increased
  rate. disabled av sw. Big problem.
  Biggest problem for trouble shooting for us is it takes 2
  days for the store
  service to consume cpu. Usually my next step would be to
  replace databases
  with new ones to see if they are the problem as per MS. But I
  can't do this
  for 2 days or more. Need better Ideas.

 Not sure,  Martins answer covered what I have done in the past. It is  
 a
jet
 direct utility so as long as you have the .edb  .stm files you may be
able
 to.  Anyone know?

 You can also run eseutil locally on a non-exchange server that has 
 space
on
 any databases copied over from the prod server.

RE: hard drive space

2003-07-09 Thread Matt
Ok got the go ahead to add 2 drives. I'll add the drives mirror and then run 5.5 
optimization to move to new drives.
I had just installed exchange svp 4, I would have thought I had already rec'd latest 
ver of store!! Will check. The system was running CA av but I stopped all the services 
for CA. Store still pegged.

1.  You might make sure you have the latest version of store.exe.

2.  Exmerge out the data.  Mount a blank store.  Merge it back in.

3.  Otherwise, contact MS and have them take a user dump when the store is pegged.  
They'll be able to review it and see what is causing the store spike.  Then they will 
probably have you exmerge out the data, mount a blank store, and merge it back in.  ;)
