Update-StoreMailboxState

Reference

Module:: ExchangePowerShell

Applies to:: Exchange Server 2013, Exchange Server 2016, Exchange Server 2019

This cmdlet is available only in on-premises Exchange.

Use the Update-StoreMailboxState cmdlet to synchronize the mailbox state for a mailbox in the Exchange mailbox store with the state of the corresponding Active Directory user account.

For information about the parameter sets in the Syntax section below, see Exchange cmdlet syntax.

Syntax

Update-StoreMailboxState
      -Database <DatabaseIdParameter>
      -Identity <StoreMailboxIdParameter>
      [-Confirm]
      [-WhatIf]
      [<CommonParameters>]

Description

The Update-StoreMailboxState cmdlet forces the mailbox store state in the Exchange store to be synchronized with Active Directory. In some cases, it's possible that the store state for a mailbox to become out-of-sync with the state of the corresponding Active Directory user account. This can result from Active Directory replication latency. For example, if a mailbox-enabled user account is disabled in Active Directory but isn't marked as disabled in the Exchange mailbox store. In this case, running the Update-StoreMailboxState will synchronize the mailbox store state with the state of the Active Directory user account and mark the mailbox as disabled in the mailbox store. You can use this command to troubleshoot issues that may be a result when the store state for a mailbox is unexpected or if you suspect that the store state is different than the state for the corresponding Active Directory account.

You need to be assigned permissions before you can run this cmdlet. Although this topic lists all parameters for the cmdlet, you may not have access to some parameters if they're not included in the permissions assigned to you. To find the permissions required to run any cmdlet or parameter in your organization, see Find the permissions required to run any Exchange cmdlet.

Examples

Example 1

Update-StoreMailboxState -Database MDB01 -Identity 4a830e3f-fd07-4629-baa1-8bce16b86d88

This example updates the mailbox state for a mailbox located on the mailbox database MDB01 and whose GUID is 4a830e3f-fd07-4629-baa1-8bce16b86d88.

Example 2

Get-MailboxStatistics -Database MDB02 | ForEach { Update-StoreMailboxState -Database $_.Database -Identity $_.MailboxGuid -Confirm:$false }

This example updates the mailbox state for all mailboxes on the mailbox database MDB02.

Example 3

Get-MailboxStatistics -Database MDB03 | Where { $_.DisconnectReason -ne $null } | ForEach { Update-StoreMailboxState -Database $_.Database -Identity $_.MailboxGuid -Confirm:$false }

This example updates the mailbox state for all disconnected mailboxes on the mailbox database MDB03.

Parameters

-Confirm

The Confirm switch specifies whether to show or hide the confirmation prompt. How this switch affects the cmdlet depends on if the cmdlet requires confirmation before proceeding.

Destructive cmdlets (for example, Remove-* cmdlets) have a built-in pause that forces you to acknowledge the command before proceeding. For these cmdlets, you can skip the confirmation prompt by using this exact syntax: -Confirm:$false.
Most other cmdlets (for example, New-* and Set-* cmdlets) don't have a built-in pause. For these cmdlets, specifying the Confirm switch without a value introduces a pause that forces you acknowledge the command before proceeding.

Type:	SwitchParameter

Position:	Named
Default value:	None
Required:	False
Accept pipeline input:	False
Accept wildcard characters:	False
Applies to:	Exchange Server 2013, Exchange Server 2016, Exchange Server 2019

-Database

The Database parameter specifies the mailbox database that contains the mailbox. You can use any value that uniquely identifies the database. For example:

Name
Distinguished name (DN)
GUID

Type:	DatabaseIdParameter
Position:	Named
Default value:	None
Required:	True
Accept pipeline input:	False
Accept wildcard characters:	False
Applies to:	Exchange Server 2013, Exchange Server 2016, Exchange Server 2019

-Identity

The Identity parameter specifies the mailbox that you want to update. Use the mailbox GUID as the value for this parameter.

Run the following command to obtain the mailbox GUID and other information for all mailboxes in your organization: Get-MailboxDatabase | Get-MailboxStatistics | Format-List DisplayName,MailboxGuid,Database,DisconnectReason,DisconnectDate.

Type:	StoreMailboxIdParameter
Position:	Named
Default value:	None
Required:	True
Accept pipeline input:	False
Accept wildcard characters:	False
Applies to:	Exchange Server 2013, Exchange Server 2016, Exchange Server 2019

-WhatIf

The WhatIf switch simulates the actions of the command. You can use this switch to view the changes that would occur without actually applying those changes. You don't need to specify a value with this switch.

Type:	SwitchParameter
Aliases:	wi

Inputs

Input types

To see the input types that this cmdlet accepts, see Cmdlet Input and Output Types. If the Input Type field for a cmdlet is blank, the cmdlet doesn't accept input data.

Outputs

Output types

To see the return types, which are also known as output types, that this cmdlet accepts, see Cmdlet Input and Output Types. If the Output Type field is blank, the cmdlet doesn't return data.

Notes

If a mailbox is moved to another database, the mailbox is immediately disabled. There's a 24-hour delay to allow for replication.

In this scenario, Update-StoreMailboxState might not immediately update the DisconnectState and DisconnectReason properties in the output of Get-MailboxStatistics. The values will update approximately 24 hours after the move.
