I was thinking that if we do go with Enterprise, we'd keep the db's on the SANS where we have about a TB and a half free. One of our servers that blew the 16 GB limit was a JV and they had a 16 GB database on a 20 GB partition. We had to plug in a couple more drives before we could even massage any free space into the database.

But management is still in the "give the users enough rope to hang themselves" frame of mind. As I said, we are attempting to "retrain" our management. mit freundlichen Grüßen,(Best Regards), Steve Ropiak ZF Group NAO CERT, Exchange Administrator (207) 989-9115 voice (207) 989-8722 fax (513) 314-0197 cell [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----Original Message----- From: Stuart Tonge [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, June 11, 2002 9:42 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Death to the evil PST Place a max mailbox size on every user is my tip. -----Original Message----- From: Ropiak Steve - NAO Florence Office IT [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, June 11, 2002 2:28 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Death to the evil PST Based on numerous posts here, we have decided to eliminate the use of PST's (and light beer) in our company and go with info stores in the mailbox. We are running Exch 5.5 Standard SP 4 on NT4 SP6a. There are about 2,000 users in our site. I'm curious how large some of your databases are and any difficulties associated with handling large Exchange databases. I am trying to "retrain" our management here to think in terms of limiting mailbox sizes, establishing a retention policy, etc., etc. But, in case we don't get there, other than the 16 TB limit, are there any other "gotchas" out there waiting for me? mit freundlichen Grüßen,(Best Regards), Steve Ropiak ZF Group NAO CERT, Exchange Administrator (207) 989-9115 voice (207) 989-8722 fax (513) 314-0197 cell [EMAIL PROTECTED] List Charter and FAQ at: http://www.sunbelt-software.com/exchange_list_charter.htm ________________________________________________________________________ This email has been scanned for all viruses by the MessageLabs SkyScan service.
