My apologies. yes the maintenance is working correctly. this is only happening to one database ( of 4 total ) We have nagios monitoring our servers and this is what alerted us of the disk becoming full.

RE: disk consumption tools?
Confirmed that it is the edb file that's increasing in size and no other files on that particular filesystem. Adding an iOS based user could be a possibility as there are other admin that manage this network. Any insight on this? Ran the following get-mailboxstatics command over the course of yesterday and there's no indication of a user taking the hit. Get-mailbox | get-mailboxstatistics | sort-object -property totalitemsize -descending | ft displayname,totalitemsize All users have the default quota of 2gb on their mailbox as well.

Nice. Seriously, it can't be an iOS user. I realized before answering that question that we have a lot of ios users and I'm sure a lot of them on iOS4.
