<p class=MsoNormal>Folks,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>A strange problem: I have 4 Exchange data stores on my
server. They are segregated onto a DB array and a Log Files array, both
separate from the C Drive. An examination of the file properties gives a total of
about 37GB for the data store files (.edb) on the DB array, which is consistent
with the backup size without compression. However, the Disk Management console
says that 101GB is free (out of 250GB), and so reporting that this disk volume
is somehow consuming 150GB instead of 37GB. How is this possible?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I have done everything I can to check for hidden/system
files, including examining the individual file properties both from Windows and
the command prompt. Anyone else have this issue? Any thoughts?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p>
