Can I copy the database to another machine, and run ESEUTIL on that machine?
Can I just copy the utility or do I need to install exchange on this other
machine?

Just make sure you have enough disk space free on the drive that the
priv.edb is on, MS recommendation is 110%, so if your priv.edb is 15.5 GB
you'll need to have about 16+ GB free space on that drive.  Otherwise,
you'll have to run it across the network and that will slow your time down
considerably.

I am concerned with the size of the of the PRIV.  It is 15.5GB now.  For the
longest time it was about 10GB.  Recently, someone set a rule for OOF to
forward their mail to a private home account.  The account was closed
because the mailbox was full.  The returned mail bounced back about 10,000
times.  By the time it was noticed the store was already a bit chubby.
Otherwise we aren't experiencing any problems.

You don't need to run this utility. Exchange maintains itself - are you
having problems that you believe will be resolved?

Greetings Knowledgeable Exchange Admins 

Our Exch5.5/SP4 WNT4.0/SP6 information store is beefed up to 15.5GB.  I was
planning to run the ESEUTIL to clean up the database.  I suspect there is a
lot of space that can be reclaimed and by defragging the store things

*should* run more smoothly.  I have never done this so bravely I go forward,
but not before asking for the sage advise of the list.

A couple of things I would like to know are: 

1.      Approximately how long will it take?  The box is a Dell PE2400 dual 
PIII-600 1GB-RAM.  I'm just looking for a ballpark so I can schedule the
time. 

2.      Are there any precautions, other than backups, I should take? 

3.      Are there any known problems with the utility 

Thanks in advance. 

Dan Munley
