Applications and Exchange Tools Table 4.2 ESEUtil.exe Procedures that Should Be Run from the Server that Contains the Exchange Databases Procedure Description Defragmentation Eseutil /d Makes used storage contiguous, eliminates unused storage, and compacts the database. Eseutil.exe copies database records to a new database. If there is insufficient space on the original server, the new database could be created on a different server. The function reads all of the records in the database at least one time and writes all records to a new database. If the defragmentation process creates a new database on a different server -for example, on a Windows Storage Server computer - run the defragmentation procedure on the server that contains the new database. For more information about defragmenting a database by using the ESEUtil.exe utility, see Microsoft Knowledge Base article 192185, "XADM: How to Defragment with the Eseutil Utility (Eseutil.exe)" (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=23124). Integrity Eseutil /g Confirms the integrity of the pages in the database, as well as the integrity of the data on the pages themselves. Reads the database at least one time. Checksum Eseutil /k Confirms the integrity of pages in the database by recalculating the checksum on each database page. Reads the database one time. For more information about checking the integrity of a database by using the ESEUtil.exe utility, see Microsoft Knowledge Base article 825088: "How To: Use the Eseutil Utility to Detect File Header Damage in Exchange 2003" (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=23125). Repair Eseutil /p Modifies parts of the database that are incorrect. The amount of repair work that is necessary depends upon the amount of corruption.
