Well...
I HAVE an anti-virus program that scans the *DATA. That's
probably the reason. But... how can so much log files be created during
the week-end, where nobody is using email? I know the server receives
email during the week-end, but there are only 20 user accounts on this
server. I check the MDBDATA directory and there is roughly 1 log file
(5.0MB) created every minute. This seems to be going on since sunday.
Finally what about the analysis tool? Is there a tool that i can
use to view those log files? If so, what is it and where can I find it.
Thanks

Another reason for huge growth (That's if you ARE doing an Exchange
Aware ONLINE Backup) is the use of any Anti-Virus programs scanning your
Exchange *DATA Folders, or the M: Drive.
Verify that nothing is taking place in their areas, and perform an
online backup ASAP, before you run out of disk space. Using NTBACKUP on
the Exchange Server will flush the logs, as it is Exchange-aware.
If this happens, the Services will stop!

When was your last exchange aware backup performed? Transactions in
these log files get committed, then flushed during a normal backup using
an Exchange aware backup product.

Subject: Analysing log files in MDBDATA
Hello,
Is there a tool, in E2K, I could use to visualize and analyze the
log files in MDBDATA?
The number of log files (in MDBDATA) is growing MUCH to fast for my
taste. No one was here during the week-end but nevertheless, the number
of log files are HUGE. What could be explaining this abnormal log file
growth??? Mail-relay?
Thank you,
