The database limit is the total of both files and does count the whitespace as part of the 75gb limit. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa998066(EXCHG.65).aspx http://support.microsoft.com/kb/828070 Simon. -- Simon Butler MVP: Exchange, MCSE Sembee Ltd. e: si...@sembee.co.uk<mailto:si...@sembee.co.uk> w: http://www.sembee.co.uk/ w: http://exchange.sembee.info/ w: http://blog.sembee.co.uk/ Need cheap certificates for Exchange, compatible with the iPhone? http://CertificatesForExchange.com/<http://certificatesforexchange.com/> for certificates from just $26.99.

You have less than 5 GB of space left. The good news is that Exchange will use the white space for new data before it physically grows the .edb. So you should be safe for a while.

Their edb file is 70.7GB and the STM file is 19.1GB. The amount of whitespace that is being reported by Event ID1221 is saying there is 17.2GB of whitespace in the database. If I understand this correctly, you add the size of the edb file and stm file and subtract the whitespace and that gives you the actual size of the DB since whitespace is being taken into consideration. Just making sure this is the case since this is Exchange 2003 Standard Edition SP2 and they are subject to the 75GB limit. --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com<mailto:listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com> with the body: unsubscribe exchangelist --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com<mailto:listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com> with the body: unsubscribe exchangelist --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com<mailto:listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com> with the body: unsubscribe exchangelist --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe exchangelist
