It is rcommended that you only have one database per storage group, and is a requirement if you sent up CCR / LCR or SCR.

It wont harm your EDB to run eseutil's.<br />
It's much less complicated than trying to move mailbox / different storage group and then trying to mount.<br />

Hi everyone,<br />
<br />
I read that defragmentation on exchange 2007 was not a good idea and that the better way was to create a new maibox database and put all the mailbox in there.<br />
<br />
Should a create a new storage group or i leave it in the first ?<br />
<br />
I i understand, the steps are :<br />
<br />
Create a new mailbox db.<br />
Move all the mailbox in the db.<br />
Delete the old mailbox db.<br />
<br />
That's it ? No more configuration ? Exchange will automatically find the new mailbox ?
