What to do with 56 GB of log files after eseutil /d /t
Is the following correct?
I am currently runnning eseutil / d /t on my exchange server. Current priv1 is 9+ GB and stm is 4.9GB. After it finishes, I will copy the contents of the exchsrvr folder to a temp folder and drop the two newly created files into the exchsrvr directory.
What I am unsure of is what to do with the log files? Hopefully the offline defrag will clear them up.
eseutil currently around 11%
Thanks

Although not an excellent solution you can look into circular logging.

Well, I had already finished the offline defrag before this was posted. Turns out after the defrag is done, the log files may have been commited but were not deleted. I simply moved all but the most recent log files to a new directory and mounted the DB. After succesful mounting, I deleted thenm and I gained my 56 GB of storage back. Thanks anyway.
To help make sure to use full backups of the information store as this will help keep those logs down to a manageable size.
