SBS 2011 Exchange 2010
Hi I'm currently running SBS 2011 with exchange and SQL I need to limit exchange to 10GB as its not giving up the ram to the SQL. I looked on line and set the sizes as it suggested but then my exchange only runs with 1GB I think I'm putting the wrong amount in this is what I put in max 327680 and min 307200. could someone please tell me if this is correct?
Thanks

yes I am aware of this and explained to the client but I'm just trying to give them a work around until they sort this out. there old providers sold them SBS as it was a lot cheaper than having separate exchange and SQL server. so just to be clear I need to set the max to (10GB 327680). this is the figure I put in and it wouldn't let exchange go over 1GB causing the server to crash.
thanks

not sure if you did in same way:
1. Stopping all Exchange services
2. Changing attribute through ADSIedit.msc (msExchESEParamCacheSizeMi
3. replicate AD
4. restart Exchange server and check.

that's what I done on the server but doesn't seem to work I have had a look around and seems its a known problem
SBS2011 server without any setting will after it has been running for a few hours be using 95-98% of available memory. This box has 20GB RAM
Set min cache at 65536 (2GB) and max at 262144 (8GB) and restart the store. Some days later sever is only using 65% of physical memory with the store using 2GB of physical and 4GB of virtual – and the disk I/O significantly higher than prior to setting this.
So setting this to “improve” the responsiveness of the SBS box has had little impact and instead of using the Max setting, the store is only using the min setting that has been defined.

Thanks for the Help
This is really not supported.
However article is here to limit Exchange server, but not sure about pros and cons. Because if Information Store service will not have enough memory to run on required memory then it can crash at any point of time.
