Returns the maximum number of databases allowed in a single Exchange server storage group.

C#
Copy 

Static ULONG __stdcall CMaxDbPerSG ();

The maximum number of databases that the specified Exchange server allows per storage group. Because storage groups are not part of Exchange 2013, this function returns 1.

You can use the CCheckSGFiles object to validate databases (and transaction log files) in only one storage group, so the value returned by the CMaxDbPerSG function also represents the maximum number of databases that you can check by using an instance of the CCheckSGFiles class.

Note that by default, Exchange Server 2003 and Exchange Server 2007 allow a maximum of five databases per storage group.

Exchange 2013 only includes a 64-bit version of the CHKSGFILES API.

The account that the application is running under must have read access permissions to the database and log files that are to be checked.
