 Using Jetpack for Proactive Compacting
Microsoft includes Jetpack, a database-compacting tool, in Windows 2000 and Windows NT, and I strongly recommend that you regularly run this tool against both your DHCP (dhcp.mdb) and WINS (wins.mdb) databases as part of your network-maintenance routine.
This command instructs Jetpack to use tmp.mdb as a temporary database during the compacting operation.
Regularly using Jetpack to compact DHCP and WINS databases not only keeps the databases small but also alerts you to potential corruption because Jetpack returns an error message if it finds major inconsistencies in a database during compaction.
