Printed	Page 50 and 147	Incorrect Information About Maximum Number Of Storage Groups Allowed Pages 50 and 147 state that "Each Exchange server can have up to 16 storage groups, and each storage group can have up to 6 databases." Although the Extensible Storage Engine (ESE) code allows 16 storage groups, Exchange 2000 Server only allows a maximum of 4 storage groups containing a maximum of 5 databases for each storage group. This limit is enforced inside the Exchange System Manager snap-in, so administrators cannot create more storage groups than the system allows. For more information, please read the following Microsoft Knowledge Base article:Q251123: Maximum Number of Storage Groups in Exchange 2000 for Database Capacity Planning	Microsoft Press	May 06, 2010
