When the database exceeds some threshold (normally 150 percent of
the defragmented size), defragment the database and take another snapshot. You can see the
size of the security database by typing ESENTUTL /ms SecEdit.SDB in the \WINDOWS\security\
Database folder and pressing Enter.
Copying lets you create another copy of a log file, streaming file, or database in a secondary location.
The default utility settings copy the data from a source location to the current location, but you
can change that behavior by using the /d command line switch as follows.
/d
Copies the file to the specified destination, rather than using the
current directory and the same name as the source file.
Decompressing Files with the Expand Utility
The Expand utility lets you open the contents of a cabinet (CAB) file or compressed file and extract
the contents. Generally, you use it to extract a missing file from a CD or other media, most notably
Windows files. The advantage of using this utility is that you can use it with batch or script files to
automate repair actions. An administrator can save time and effort using this approach for common
repairs or repairs that must be made to a group of machines.
