If you DON'T do an offline defrag (assuming you are using Exchange Standard,
not Enterprise) Exchange will crash when it gets beyond 16GB limit. I know
because mine crashed. We purchased PerfectDisk 7 for Exchange, which
enables scheduling of offline defrags.

There is never any need to do an offline defrag unless: (a) PSS has
explicitly instructed you to do so, or (b) the usage patterns of the
database have changed dramatically.

Hello All,
We just finished doing offline defrag (ESEUTIL /d /p) on our mailbox
stores after implementing storage limits. Do any shops out there do a
defrag on any regular time interval? We were guessing 1/quarter during our
regular maintenance down time.
We are Exchange 2003, Windows Server 2003, 1xFE-2xBE shop.
Thanks, Robert
