| Description | The database disk is full. |
| Event Information | According to Microsoft: CAUSE: This behavior can occur if there is not enough free space on the drive to create the Refer.mdb file. The Refer.mdb file is a temporary database that is created when you run the Microsoft Exchange Information Store Integrity Checker (Isinteg) utility. Isinteg browses the tables in the information store database, looking for errors. For the cross-reference tables, Isinteg builds a Microsoft Exchange Server database of reference counts (Refer.mdb) before browsing the tables. After traversing all the cross-reference tables, Isinteg compares the counts found to the counts in the reference database. If you run Isinteg with the -fix switch, these counts are updated to their true values as determined by Isinteg. The default location for the Refer.mdb file is the subdirectory where the information store database is located, which is either the Priv.edb file or the Pub.edb file. If there is not enough room on the drive to build the Refer.mdb file, Isinteg fails, and you receive an "Out Of Disk Space" error message. RESOLUTION: Exchange Server has an option to run Isinteg and specify a location for the Refer.mdb file. The option is a command-line switch -t. To generate a list of the command-line switches for Isinteg for Exchange Server, go to a command prompt, switch to the Exchsrvr\Bin subdirectory on an Exchange Server computer, and type isinteg without any switches. The command-line switches for Isinteg for Exchange Server 5.5 are listed in the document entitled "Isinteg.rtf" on the Exchange Server 5.5 compact disc. |
