Exchange 2000 offline Defrag..How Long
We are running an offline defrag on our exchange 2000 server this weekend and I am just wondering if anybody has any ideas on how long it will take on a database that is 16Gb in size.
The server is windows 2000, Dual Xeon P4 and 2Gb Ram.
Just don't want to go into the office on Monday and find the process still running!!!

I did one last weekend. Took roughly the same time on a Dual P4 2.8Ghz, with 2GB RAM and RAID1+RAID5 disks.
That was on a 12GB IS and Exchange/Windows 2003.
