Clean out old mailbox export requests
Clean out old mailbox export requests.
Since Exchange 2010 doesn’t automatically remove old mailbox export requests, periodically you need to clear them out manually.
This short little script cleans out all mailbox export requests that were completed more than 7 days ago. I run it about once per week. You could also schedule it if you want.
$CompletedRequests = Get-MailboxExportRequest -Status Completed
$EndDate = (Get-Date).AddDays(-7)
$CompletedRequests | ForEach {
if ((Get-MailboxExportRequestStatistics `
$_.RequestGuid).CompletionTimeStamp -lt $EndDate) {
Remove-MailboxExportRequest $_.RequestGuid `
-Confirm:$False
}
}
|
You can also use this powershell command:
Get-MailboxExportRequest -Status Completed | Remove-MailboxExportRequest
Thanks – this worked for me and I was able to remove a database which had mailbox export requests
If you want to delete all Completed export requests, that will work perfectly. I like to keep them around for a little while so that whoever submitted the request has time can still see the status before it gets deleted.
