Exchange App data volume

Hello-
I setup the Exchange App on one of my Exchange 2010 HT/CAS servers and let it run for just short of an hour. Within that period of time the Licensing page reported that ~4-500mb of data was logged... does that seem reasonable or do I have something misconfigured?

We have the 2gb license, but with that kind of data volume there is no was i'll be able to use the Exchange App until I license more data. We have 2 HT/CAS servers and 3 mailbox servers.

Just trying to get a feel if this amount of data should be expected.

Thanks!

Hello!

How many users do you have? In that hour timeframe, what's the inbound/outbound message queues looking like? This seems a bit high, but it really depends on how many users you have.

That sounds perfectly normal then with mobile devices and clients such as Outlook and OWA. Our baseline is 1000 users, sending 50, 20k messages, so the bare minimum in a "quiet" environment is 200 MB/day. More users and more traffic will up that variable to what you're seeing.

We have somewhere around 11,000 users. The timeframe I had this running was 7:30-8:30 in the morning so the queues shouldn't have been real huge.

I did notice when looking at the index msexchange alot of the messages were related to activesync and other client chatter.
