Getting statistics mailboxes with Exchange Management Shell Exchange 2007

In this article we will explain how the Exchange Management Shell in Microsoft Exchange 2007, can generate some very interesting statistics of users' mailboxes. In this article we will explain the following two commands:

Get-MailboxStatistics <username> | fl

Get-MailboxFolderStatistics <username> | ft

We will also explain the parameters "| fl and | ft" that are put in the commands above are used to seeing that format the results.

The first command is "Get-MailboxStatistics" and serves primarily to generate statistics for a mailbox of a particular user. Let's see it better with an example:

Get-MailBoxStatistics

In the example above has been obtained about the user's mailbox "administrator". With the parameter "| fl" what we do is show in a row format. In this command the interesting facts are:

  • Total size of the deleted items
  • Name of the user database
  • Date of last logoff
  • Date of last logon
  • Last logged on to note that the box
  • Number of items eliminated
  • Total size of the items
  • Name Storage Group
  • Information on the status of the limit

The second command is "Get-MailboxFolderStatistics" and serves mainly to details of all folders and subfolders that exist in the mailbox of a particular user. Let's see it better with an example:

Get-MailboxFolderStatistics

In the example above has been obtained details of the structure of folders and subfolders in the user "administrator". With the parameter "| ft" show the result in a table format as shown in the picture. Important data in this command are:

  • Number of items in the folder shown
  • Folder Path, which is the path to the folder in the mailbox
  • Folder Size
  • Number of items in the folder and subfolders
  • Date of oldest item in this folder and new
  • If it is administered or not

In conclusion, these two commands in the Shell Exchange 2007, allows a system administrator to easily view statistics of users' mailboxes.

In future articles we will show other Shell commands in Exchange 2007.

    On the question:

    http://technet.microsoft.com/es-es/library/bb124612 (EXCHG.80). aspx

    I can think only this command:

    get-MailboxStatistics-identity "nombredelbuzón"

    but is used for more general character, to know the mails received in one day do not know exactly, surely you can customize this command or some sort.

    Thanks

    Carlos greetings and thanks for your comments. I've been looking for what you ask me, and I have not found any parameter to return your last access. Use the command: get-Mailbox will return all users with voice. This command has many parameters, I pass a link where you explain them all, I hope you serve: http://technet.microsoft.com/es-es/library/bb123685.aspx
