It's 16 GB *per* database, not total. And the limit is only on the Standard version of Exchange 5.5 (and E2K). There is no "real" limit on the Enterprise version of Exchange.

William, I am not sure how we reach the 16GB total. I have always just looked at the size of the Priv and Pub and added them together , and if they were under 16GB then no sweat. My question as I was reading the thread was "am I looking in the right place". You responded that it was in the application event log but I didn't see it. I was looking at the "Source" and the "Category" for filtering purposes. I was sort of hoping you would confirm or correct my guess. Sorry if I wasn't clear.

I'm not sure what you are asking, Dan. There is a hardcoded 16GB database limit to each of the private information store and public information store in the Exchange Standard version. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, May 01, 2002 8:20 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: 16 GB Limit?

There is a separate 16GB limit on each of the priv.edb and pub.edb. The online maintenance that runs each night will report the database information to the application event log.

It is agreed that the limit is 16MB. How is that determined? Through the aggregate size of the mailboxes and private folders? Or the size of the Priv and Pub? Dan Munley -----Original Message----- From: Majetic, John RAME [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, April 26, 2002 3:56 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: 16 GB Limit? Ok everyone here is talking about the 16GB limit on regular 5.5, but all the docs I can find from Microsoft don't seem to differencate between 5.5 and 5.5 enterprise. I was always under the impression that regualar 5.5 had the 16GB limit, and Eneterprise got rid of it. Am I right? If not what is the limit in regualr 5.5?
