Hi All, We have 16 databases and require too complete a restore for one user but it would appear that this user has been moved from the database they are currently in. Is there a way to track what was the previous mailbox database the user was in from a year ago?

Thanks James. I'm going to setup the monthly ldf dumps to capture this info. But somehow I wish I had have completed this before the move to 2010. Also found the following a tad easier than using MFCMapi. Get-Mailbox User | Get-MailboxStatistics -IncludeMoveHistory |fl MoveHistory : {(22/06/2012 1:27:56 PM: TargetMDB=DB1, Size=328.3 MB (344,219,438 bytes), Du ration=00:08:40), (20/02/2012 10:51:49 AM: Canceled, TargetMDB=DB2)}

Hi Is the AD accout still exist? If the AD account had also been moved, It might be hard to Restore. CheersZi Feng TechNet Community Support

Hi Is the AD accout still exist? If the AD account had also been moved, It might be hard to Restore. Cheers Zi Feng TechNet Community Support but we have done this recently , have created new account and pointed to that mailboxconnect me :- http://in.linkedin.com/in/satya11 http://facebook.com/satya.1000 Don't forget to mark helpful or answer

The AD account should still be there.

Hi If the ad account is still there, first please check Disconnected Mailbox in EMC, to see whether the mailbox is there. If yes, reconnecte it. If not, you can run Clean-MailboxDatabase cmdlet to check each database. The command is to scan Active Directory for disconnected mailboxes that aren't yet marked as disconnected in the Microsoft Exchange store and update the status of those mailboxes in the Exchange store. For how to run this command, please have a check on http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb124076.aspx CheersZi Feng TechNet Community Support

Thanks Zi I'm not sure you have understood the question. User and mailbox already exist restore of the mailbox required for an audit requirement. I think james has already addressed it. Thanks
