SUMMARY
This step-by-step article tells you how to zero out deleted database pages in Exchange Server.

&quot;Zeroing out&quot; sets a variable value or a series of bits to zero. Zeroing out deleted database pages allows Exchange Server to reuse previously created data pages. You can control the zeroing out of database pages at the storage group level. Each storage group can have a different policy for zeroing out deleted database pages.
