Hi,
We archived email from our exchange db, instead of doing an offline defrag to claim back white space we created an new database and moved mailboxes to it. However I was surprised to see the new db was more bloated than expected. When I rune the command "Get-Mailbox -Database MB-HO-01 | Get-MailboxStatistics | %{$_.TotalItemSize.Value.ToMB()} | Measure-Object -sum -average -max -min"
it tells me
Count : 58
Average : 1370.62068965517
Sum : 79496
Maximum : 5587
Minimum : 0
Property :
So it looks like the data in the db is only 79Gb. But the physical size of the db on disk is 140Gb so twice the size. I was very surpised by this. I suppose the only way is an offline defrag now?
