Are there issues with doing an in place upgrade of Exchange 2000 to 2000 Enterprise. Our data store has reached its max size so I need to do this upgrade. According to the Microsoft article 170280 all you do is run the setup program from the 2000 Ent. CD and click on reinstall. Is it really that simple? Tim
No, you have to pay for it as well !!! :) -- Regards, Sasa Milovanovic MCSE:Messaging sasa.milovanovic(at)exchangemaster.net "TK" wrote in message news:%23HUJtW3wFHA.2620@TK2MSFTNGP09.phx.gbl... > Are there issues with doing an in place upgrade of Exchange 2000 to 2000 > Enterprise.

If there still is not enough free space, is their a way I could manually delete messages from the data store to free up disk space or is upgrading to the Enterprise Edition my only option?

Yes ... just make sure you have a good backup also prior to upgrading.
