database (.pub and .priv) size

[scoobydoo26]

I've been receiving event ID 1221 stating that after the online defrag the free space in the database is 0MB. i'm relatively new to exchange and am still learning some of the management and maintenace of 5.5 SP3......can anyone tell me if i should be concerned with this ????

There is plenty of space on the drive and the size of the priv database is 450MB.

Thanks!!!

Shouldn't be a problem, it just means that there's no white space in the database and any further data going in will increase the size of the file. You'll find that the pub & priv.edb files do not decrease in size unless a defrag is run on the store.


Hope this helps
