Thanks everyone.
Exchange 5.5 Standard on a WinNT BDC.
I did as instructed below and the event log says that around 3000Mb will be
freed once the defrag is done.
Later I checked the Eventlog and told me that it was starting another
Defrag, this time freeing 5Mb. I guess this means that the first defrag was
ready. Correct?
Now, I checked PRIV.EDB and it still says it's 15.7Gb. It hasn't changed
size since before the defrag.
Do I HAVE to do an offline defrag to see the change? I can't shut down the
information store for more than an hour since we have users accessing this
server 24-hours a day.
Thanks and regards
Andy

Andy,
What I can do is a wild guess......I feel you have not enabled online
defragmentation.....which you can set using your administrator program and
by going into the IS maintenance....... Though I have never worked on
Exchange 2000 but this I did in Exchange 5.5.You can go thru the exchange
help too.....
Regards,
Pankaj Mehley.

Hi all,
I'm in panic mode. My mailbox store shot up from 10Gb to the max 16.7Gb in
a few weeks (probably BackupExec was the culprit, not sure though).
I'm deleting old mailboxes and have also instructed the users to delete any
unnecessary e-mails, but the mailbox store is not reducing in size.
How can I reduce it?
I noticed the message retention setting was set to 30 days, now I have
reduced it to 0, am I correct in thinking that this will flush any
tombstoned items? If not, how do I clean the deleted stuff?
HELP!
Normally-chilled-and-helpfully yours...
Andy
