Expiry and Disk Space Reclamation

All:

 

We are just beginning our testing of expiry and have a few questions:

 

1.  When an item is expired, I know it deletes it from the CAB file as we do use collections, but it is the Collector task that actually is responsible for shrinking CAB files if they are "sparse".  At what point should this occur?   Is this a settable parameter?   In other words, how does one defrag CAB files so that we reclaim physical disk?

 

2.  Is there some delay involved in reclaiming disk?

 

3.  I would also expect that as items are deleted, the indexes should also be removed and shrink on physical disk.   Is that the case or do we need to reindex to reclaim disk?

 

Thanks ... Mark
