Syntax
Get-LogonStatistics [-Identity <LogonableObjectIdParameter>] [-DomainController <Fqdn>]
Get-LogonStatistics -Database <DatabaseIdParameter> [-DomainController <Fqdn>]
Get-LogonStatistics -Server <ServerIdParameter> [-DomainController <Fqdn>]
Detailed Description
The Get-LogonStatistics cmdlet retrieves logon information about sessions that are currently active.
Note
Users who log on to their mailboxes using Microsoft Outlook Web Access are not continually connected to the Mailbox server. An Outlook Web Access client connects to the server, performs tasks, and then disconnects. Therefore, you may see very few or even no logon statistics for Outlook Web Access, even if users are logged on with this client.
To run the Get-LogonStatistics cmdlet, the account you use must be delegated the following:
- Exchange View-Only Administrator role
For more information about permissions, delegating roles, and the rights that are required to administer Exchange Server 2007, see Permission Considerations.
On Mailbox servers only, you can use the Get-LogonStatistics cmdlet without parameters. In this case, the cmdlet will return the logon statistics for all mailboxes on all databases on the local server.
