My database in not reducing in size after an offline defrag - need some help
My database in not reducing in size after an offline defrag - need some help - I could not get the Store to mount a few weeks ago and learned of the 16 gig limitation. I ran the following to get back online
eseutil /mh "d:\exchsrvr\mdbdata\priv1 .edb
eseutil /mh "d:\exchsrvr\mdbdata\pub1. edb
isinteg -s server4 -fix -test alltests
I also added a reg addition from Microsoft which gives you 17gig max instead of 16
My priv1.EDB is 12,988,680 and the priv1.stm is 3,780,616
I started with two of my worst offenders which had 1.8 gig inboxes and moved 1 gig from each to a PST file to a mapped drive on another server. I dismounted the Store and ran the following
Eseutil /d d:\exchsrvr\mdbdata\priv1. edb
3 hours later everything completes with no errors but my database is not reducing in size
eseutil /mh "d:\exchsrvr\mdbdata\priv1
eseutil /mh "d:\exchsrvr\mdbdata\pub1.

If there is no white space in the database then the offline defrag will not achieve much.
