RE: Deleting databases and logs Exchange 2003
In terms of the databases on EX2003, keep in mind that the transaction logs
are at the SG level, and cover all stores in that SG. What is your driver
behind wanting to remove the stores? (i.e. is it the last legacy exchange
server in the org?, etc)

RE: Deleting databases and logs Exchange 2003
It's not really essential that I remove them - I was attempting to save some
disk space.
They are all in the same storage group. Would it be a better idea to move
them to a new storage group (so they don't share the same logs) and then
delete them?
Thanks for the information
