Seems like if she's not really that tight on space, why would she give up redundancy?

WTF is that?? FSK it. Break the mirror and stripe em. -----Original Message----- From: Dawn R.

I just keep a watch on it. My safety net is the fact that we have mirrored drives, and if it comes to the end of the rope we can elect to break that mirror and gain another 9 gigs of space. I do a full tape back up every night, but the mirror is a safety feature I hate to lose. -----Original Message----- From: Ray Zorz [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, March 14, 2002 10:51 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: How can I regain Disk Space wow. You can't upgrade that? -----Original Message----- From: Dawn R. Ashford [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, March 14, 2002 9:36 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: How can I regain Disk Space I have very limited storage space on my Small Business Server 4.5, Exchange 5.5. Just a 9 gig drive for the whole company to run on! So, space is always an issue. When I run eseutil I actually have to redirect the temp file to another network drive to have space for the utility to run. If you don't have enough free space (I believe it requires 1 and 1/2 times the size of the database you need to compact) see Q182903 for command line structure to redirect the temp file.

I am running Exchange 5.5, and I am running dangerously low on disk space on the Exchange Server. I had everyone in our organization clean out their Inbox, Sent Items, and Deleted Items yesterday. When I looked at the disk space today, it was actually lower than yesterday. I do not understand this. If the mailboxes are getting smaller, why is the database not shrinking? Is there any other way to regain disk space? I preformed a full backup of the Information Store, and Directory yesterday. I appreciate any advice on this matter, Nick Symiakakis Noble Hospital [EMAIL PROTECTED] List Charter and FAQ at: http://www.sunbelt-software.com/exchange_list_charter.htm List Charter and FAQ at: http://www.sunbelt-software.com/exchange_list_charter.htm List Charter and FAQ at: http://www.sunbelt-software.com/exchange_list_charter.htm --- Incoming mail is certified Virus Free.
