The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Exchange Server 5.0
This article was previously published under Q176709 SYMPTOMS
When a Microsoft Exchange Server is left running for a long period of time,
it might run out of virtual memory due to a memory leak in the Microsoft
Exchange information store. This can be observed using the Windows NT
Performance Monitor, by checking the private byte counter of the Store
process. If you see a steady increase over a few days, you are seeing this
problem.
CAUSE
The information store is not freeing allocated memory properly.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Exchange Server,
version 5.0.
This problem has been corrected in the latest U.S. Service Pack for
Microsoft Exchange Server version 5.0. For information on obtaining the
Service Pack, query on the following word in the Microsoft Knowledge Base
