If you run out of disk space you can kiss you DB goodbye. Disks are cheap. Upgrade. All it would take is one good mailstorm to eat that space up.

Your log disk has plenty of space, so the IS shouldn't freak over that. Regular backups, consider an offline defrag if the whitespace is over ten percent of the total IS size... -----Original Message----- From: David Erickson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, May 22, 2002 11:48 To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Almost of of disk space Hi, I have EX5.5 sp4 / NT4 sp6 w/raid drive array and are planning to go to 2k w/new hdwr later this yr. The priv & pub edb's are the only files on a 9.1GB partition that has 244MB free, although there is almost 2GB of white space in priv and 1.8GB of white space in pub. I am a little worried about the 244MB of free space -- I don't forsee us using up all the white space in the edb's before we get the new hdwr. Should I be worried about so little drive space left? I have about 5.5GB free on the partition w/the transaction logs. NT has not compressed the 9GB partition either. Any insight would be appreciated, ie let it ride, try to free up some space, etc. thanks dave [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
