Store dismountLori
Just the regular /d will be fine, the main issues to what out for are 1. The
amount of time it will take (16gb), I would say will take around 4 - 5 hours
2. Free space, you will need around twice the size of the store in free
space for the defrag to run, so you would be looking at 32Gb of free space,
you can set the location of this temp file by using the /t switch
Hope this helps

Mark,
I looked at the KB article and I have a couple of questions:
1) Do I need to do a defrag or a defrag/compaction?
2) Are this typically a pretty straight forward thing or are there
problems that I should look out for?
Thanks for your help!
Lorie

You will not get the space back immediately, you will need to perform an
offline defrag using eseutil, here is a link that explains this:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;Q192185
I would strongly recommend doing a backup before and after the defrag,
and also consider that this will take a considerable amount of time.
With regard to the users taking up lots of space, my suggestion would be
to impose mailbox size limits and also implement the Mailbox Manager
component, again here are a couple of links:

Hope this helps.

Hey Group!
I have been watching our Exchange server closely in the last few days
and noticed that we were getting close to the 16 gig limit of Standard
edition. We only have 100 users on this server but I lost single instance
store after a database corruption.
Today the information store dismounted because it hit the limit. I
immediately started having users archive. Will I regain this space
immediately or is there something that I need to do to get that space back?
We are now looking into Enterprise edition so my next question is will I
have to bring up another server to move to Enterprise edition? I am still
having a hard time believing that we have run out of space so quickly. I
have only found 5 users that are taking up a huge amount of space. The rest
of the users have rather small mailboxes. Any ideas to help me with my
space issue?
Thanks in Advance!
Lorie Gordon
