What's new in PerfectDisk for Exchange 13.0 Build 843

May 29, 2015
  • Added the ability to detect files that are approaching the NTFS File Attribute List max size of 256KB and exclude them from defragmentation operations. Files that exceed this limit can not create additional file fragments - resulting in application or other errors. Note that this limit has nothing to do with the actual size of a file. This limit has to do with how badly fragmented the file is. If a file is badly fragmented and is approaching this limit, defragmenting the file could push it over the limit.
  • Log Viewer sorting issue fixed.
  • Changes made for PerfectDisk for vSphere to work with vSphere 6.0.
