exchange 2013 Archive Mailbox Stats

From msexchange.org

lthough Personal Archives in Exchange 2010 are often in cheaper and larger storage than “normal” mailboxes, we still need to keep an eye on them to check how archives are growing and how (if!) users are using it.

Here’s a simple script to get some statistics regarding all the archive mailboxes in your environment:

 $mbcombCollection= @()

$archiveMbxs= Get-Mailbox -Archive -ResultSize Unlimited | Select Identity, ArchiveWarningQuota, ArchiveQuota

ForEach ($mbxin$archiveMbxs)

{

       $mbxStats= Get-MailboxStatistics $mbx.Identity -Archive | Select DisplayName, StorageLimitStatus, TotalItemSize, TotalDeletedItemSize, ItemCount, DeletedItemCount,Database

       $mbcomb="" | Select"Display Name", StorageLimitStatus, "TotalItemSize (MB)","TotalDeletedItemSize (MB)", ItemCount, DeletedItemCount, Database, "ArchiveWarningQuota (GB)", "ArchiveQuota (GB)"

       $mbcomb."Display Name"=$mbxStats.DisplayName

       $mbcomb.StorageLimitStatus =$mbxStats.StorageLimitStatus

       $mbcomb."TotalItemSize (MB)"= [math]::round($mbxStats.TotalItemSize.Value.ToMB(), 2)

       $mbcomb."TotalDeletedItemSize (MB)"=[math]::round($mbxStats.TotalDeletedItemSize.Value.ToMB(), 2)

       $mbcomb.ItemCount =$mbxStats.ItemCount

       $mbcomb.DeletedItemCount =$mbxStats.DeletedItemCount

       $mbcomb.Database =$mbxStats.Database

       $mbcomb."ArchiveWarningQuota (GB)"=$mbx.ArchiveWarningQuota.Value.ToGB()

       $mbcomb."ArchiveQuota (GB)"=$mbx.ArchiveWarningQuota.Value.ToGB()

       $mbcombCollection+=$mbcomb

}

Exchange 2013 – Setup Error: A Receive connector must have a unique combination of a local IP address & port bindings and remote IP address ranges

You may get an error while Exchange setup checks Receive Connectors for local IP address/port bindings and remote IP address ranges for the server where you are installing Cumulative Update. This error would come up at “Mailbox Role: Transport Service” step of setup/update process. Here is the detailed error message.
Error Message:
Error:

 $connectors = Get-ReceiveConnector -Server $RoleFqdnOrName;

Explanation:

You can not have same values of Local IP Address:Port bindings and Remote IP Address Range both on two Receive Connectors so essentially you have to change anyone of these on one of the Receive Connector.

Now problem is you won’t be able to open Exchange Admin Center (EAC) or Exchange Management Shell (EMS) to modify Local IP Address:Port Bindings or Remote IP Address Ranges on one of these receive connectors.

Solution:

Exchange saves configuration information in Configuration Partition of Active Directory so you can use any AD Editor like ADSIEdit.msc or ADExplorer.exe to modify this value. (Be careful while using these raw AD Editors!)

• Open ADSIEDIT.MSC.
• Navigate to the following location: CN=SMTP Receive Connectors,CN=Protocols,CN=<ExServerName>,CN=Servers,CN=Exchange Administrative Group (FYDIBOHF23SPDLT),CN=Administrative Groups,CN=<ExOrg Name>,CN=Microsoft Exchange,CN=Services,CN=Configuration,DC=<DomainName>,CN=<Com>
• Right-click one of the Receive Connector which is showing up in error and then click Properties. (It is recommend to modify the Receive Connector created manually and not the “Default Frontend ServerName” connector.)

Now change the value of either msExchSmtpReceiveRemoteIPRangesor msExchSmtpReceiveBindings following below setps.

• Locate the msExchSmtpReceiveRemoteIPRanges attribute. This attribute stores values for Remote Network Settings that you see in EAC.
• Remove the values here and add some unique IP address or IP Range back.

OR

• Locate the msExchSmtpReceiveBindings attribute. This attribute stores value of Network adapter bindings that you see in EAC.
• Remove the values here and add them back with different Port instead of 25.

Personally I would prefer to change msExchSmtpReceiveRemoteIPRanges and give some unique IP or IP range.

After this Exchange 2013 Cumulative Update installation goes fine!
