Exchange 2003 enterprise with SP2 .... Priv1.edb is 89 GB &amp;&nbsp;Priv1.stm is 24 GB<br />
<br />
I am planning an offline defrag but want to know how much time it will take to complete... offline defrag has never been run before.<br />
<br />
The server hardware is dual core processors with 4Gb RAM, OS and exchange log files are on drive C: (RAID-5 on SAS with 10k rpm) and exchange databases are on D drive (RAID-5 on SAS 10k rpm) ... i have 400Gb free space on D: drive for defrag<br />
<br />
I have deleted a lot of mailbox data today ... and expect around 20 GB of free space after defrag.<br />
<br />
Can anyone point to some tools which would give a preview time for the offline defrag to complete before i actually start it? ... or any other advise on offline defrag?<br />
<br />
Regards,<br />
Pete
