Answer / manas

Use the New-MailboxRepairRequest cmdlet to detect and repair mailbox corruptions. You can run this command against a specific mailbox or against a mailbox database. While this task is running, mailbox access is disrupted for the mailbox being repaired. If you're running this command against a mailbox database, only the mailbox being repaired is disrupted. All other mailboxes in the database remain operational.

NOTE: You can't perform these procedures in the Exchange Management Console (EMC). You must use the Shell.

When you run the New-MailboxRepairRequest cmdlet, the following output is displayed:

• RepairTaskID   This value specifies a unique identifier for the repair task.
• Mailbox   This value specifies the mailbox being repaired. If you specified a database-level repair, this value is blank.
• Database   This value specifies the database that contains the mailbox being repaired.
• Server   This value specifies the Mailbox server hosting the active copy of the database that contains the mailbox being repaired.

New-MailboxRepairRequest -Mailbox tony@contoso.com -CorruptionType FolderView
