We have Exchange 2000 on Windows 2003. And we have both on the same, single server in our organization. Can I create multiple storage group on same server, so as to overcome 16GB size limitations on my only Exchange server? Can I keep 2 storage groups and divide users by configuring them to different storage groups? Thanks in advance. Denis
Since you have 16 GB limitation that means that you have Standard version of Exchange installed and therefore the answer is No! Because standard version is limited to only 1 SG with 1 mailbox store and 16GB in size limit. Either upgrade to enterprise version or Exchange 2003 standard (can have 1 store up to 75GB) -- Regards, Sasa Milovanovic MCSE:Messaging sasa.milovanovic(at)exchangemaster.net "Denis" wrote in message news:4C669E6D-DCF7-437F-9DD9-B961435E1C7F@microsoft.com... > We have Exchange 2000 on Windows 2003.

Thanks for your valued reply. But, as I have stated, I have Exchange 2000 Server. Whether it is possible to have multiple storage groups/mailbox store on the same server in Exchange 2000?

Hi, In addition to the other answers. You are aware that Exchange 2000 is not supported on windows server 2003 right? http://support.microsoft.com/kb/321648/en-us Leif "Denis" wrote in message news:4C669E6D-DCF7-437F-9DD9-B961435E1C7F@microsoft.com... > We have Exchange 2000 on Windows 2003.
