Dell server 1500SC
Running Windows 2000 Small Business Server.
We were running out of disk space of the c partition so I unloaded as
many unused applications as possible. Including GFI spam filter, MS
outlook, etc.. (may have been a few other can not remember.)

Ah...you do know that you really shouldn't install Outlook on a server
running Exchange, no?

I do now.

After restatring the system the Exchange Server Management service
refused to start. The event log show an Event ID 6 (The Microsoft
Exchange Management service encountered an error (0xThe specified
module could not be found.)

I best guess is that I need to reinstall the application
MSExchangeMGMT, but not sure how to do this. Not a big deal at this
point, because the Exchange server is still up and running, but
thought I should get some advise before throwing myself under the bus.

Thanks

Hi MrC

Firstly this is a good tool to search folders and review their sizes,
Treesize http://www.jam-software.com/freeware/index.shtml

How big is your hard drive and what partition sizes do you have?

Possibly need to move exchange databases

Are you backing up exchange to clear the logs?
http://www.smallbizserver.net/Default.aspx?tabid=102

or do you use an industry product WITH the exchange addin i.e veritas for
SBS

GFI doesn't seem to have anything in their database with your eventid 6
error so it could be due to outlook being removed. Needs more investigation
