Lorie, I tried running the eseutil on a test edb file and it went down from
50......kb to about 45kb. It looks like it's working. From my understanding
this is simply a compression or defrag tool. Am I correct? Or does this command
actually do something else I'm not aware of. And let's say for example that I
had to do a complete restore of the edb file. When doing the restore there
shouldn't be any problems related to this eseutil command being run. It should
just restore the database in it's backup state right? Thanks in advance,
John

I have an exchange database that is being backed up using Veritas backup exec.
Currently the size that is displayed for the priv.edb using windows explorer is
6,110,728kb. (about 6.1gb) however after reviewing the size of mailboxes in
Exchange system manager I doesn't look like my priv.edb file should be nearly
that size. It should be something more like 4 or 5 gb. Do I need to compress my
priv.edb? What exactly is happening? (Also when backing up with veritas, there
is actually about 7gb which is being backed up, I'm assuming this is because of
the verify which needs to run) Thanks in advance,
John
