Of course :-) I always get the names mixed up in explaining the two but in practice, I know better.
Thanks for pointing that out. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] at INTERNET Sent: Monday, June 24, 2002 1:45 PM To: Balen, Steve B - Raleigh, NC; [EMAIL PROTECTED] at INTERNET Subject: RE: Compacting You were doing fine up until the 'isinteg', which needs to be replaced by eseutil.exe. -----Original Message----- From: Steve Balen [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, June 24, 2002 10:35 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Compacting The extensible storage engine (ese) does daily online defragmentations of the stores. However, it does not compact the store - it only recovers empty tables and recovers white space - so essentially, the .edb file will always grow when you run out of white space. The only way to compact a store is to run isinteg (which we just seemed to have finished a quasi-hot funny debate about it), and this requires the stores to be taken off line. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] at INTERNET Sent: Monday, June 24, 2002 1:20 PM To: Balen, Steve B - Raleigh, NC; [EMAIL PROTECTED] at INTERNET Subject: Compacting Friends and astute members of the exchange list. Please forgive such basic questions but I am new to exchange. (came from lotus notes) Since exchange is essentially a database, I would assume this database gets fragmented. Is there a tool that can be used to "unfragment"?
