How do we know if the users mailbox is corrupt on exchange server? What do we check on the server to make sure that users mailbox is corrupt on the server?

Answer Posted / 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.

Use the Shell to detect corruptions and repair a mailbox


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