Unable to update mailbox SD in the DS... cannot find the object with adfind
Hi,Got this error in event log for our Exchange 2007, Source: MSEchangeISEvent ID: 9554Unable to update Mailbox SD in the DS. Mailbox Guid: 9a3254ae-aab3-45e0-bdf7-4c7a11f91b9f. Error Code 0x8004010fBase on the doco..http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/555433I then use a utility called ADFind.exe to look for the object GUID. But nothing can be found. I tested with a valid GUID, and it did return the user dn. Does this mean the object has been deleted? But then why I am still keep getting this error in the event log?

Well, what's the "valid GUID" you used in the search?Use LDP.exe to search for the mailbox. This KB explains how:http://support.microsoft.com/kb/899663The GUID you supplied as an example would be transformed intosomething usable in the search like this:GUID: 9a3254ae-aab3-45e0-bdf7-4c7a11f91b9fbecomes: ae54329a-b3aa-e045-bdf7-4c7a11f91b9fwhich becomes: ae54329ab3aae045bdf74c7a11f91b9fand finally becomes: \ae\54\32\9a\b3\aa\e0\45\bd\f7\4c\7a\11\f9\1b\9fOnce you find the AD object, check the permissions.

I have tried ldp.exe and with the GUID converted to \ae\54\32\9a\b3\aa\e0\45\bd\f7\4c\7a\11\f9\1b\9f.Still no luck to find the object... What would be further actions that I can take to troubleshoot this issue?

What would be further actions that I can take to troubleshoot this issue? Sorry . . . I overlooked the error code in your original post. Error Code 0x8004010f = Not FoundWhatever it is that referencing that mailbox GUID, the AD object isn'tthere any more.It's most likely related to a mailbox that's disconnected. You canfind that mailbox by looking for the GUID and then, if it's one youdon't need to retain, remove it.You can use this to look for the mailbox:get-mailboxstatistics -server <server-name> | where {$._MailboxGuid-eq '9a3254ae-aab3-45e0-bdf7-4c7a11f91b9f'} | fl---Rich MatheisenMCSE+I, Exchange MVP --- Rich Matheisen MCSE+I, Exchange MVP
