defrag exchange 5.5 database

by uji . Updated 23 years, 9 months ago

my exch server 5.5 gives intermittent problem. User sending email will take quite some time to receive it.I know I have to defrag my priv, pub and dir database because ever since I installed the exch, I never do any defrag until the problem arises. I read the article in technet – How to Defragment with the Eseutil utility (Eseutil.exe) but I also read about the problem that may arise if I defrag the database, the info store might gives a problem.
I do not have a proper backup software to backup my exch. I just copy the dir.edb, pub.edb and priv.edb and the logs (I enabled the cirvcular logging) to another server.
Does anyone ever had any experience defrag the database and don’t have any proper backup? Just afraid that my info store givesproblem while doing the defrag bcos I don’t have a proper backup software.
