Performance on our Exchange 2003 box has deteriorated and users are complaining
of poor response in opening emails. The box is an IBM 2.4 Ghz, 4gig ram
supporting 500 users. The software is windows 2003 enterprise. Running
performance monitor gave disk queue length of around 10 on the stores volume -
sometimes more. Running disk defrag utility on stores volume gave volume
fragmentation as 49% and file fragmentation as 98%. My question is - can you
use windows defrag utility to clean this up or is there a better third party
utility to do the job or am I looking in the wrong area for the poor
performance?
