Hi,
we're running TDP Exchange 7.1 against MS Exchange 2010.
The windows system log of the TDP datamover are literally flooded by error
messages like this one:
Cmdlet Get-Mailbox, Parameter {Identity=f2bf81eb-efeb-4fdb-b6a7-08c4e01a82c8}
After running some traces with level 2, we finally found that the TDP cmdlet
queries the Exchange mailboxhistory on the TSM server for a GUID, hands it
over to the corresponding AD controller to get the mailbox location to perform
backups.
That works for all _active_ mailboxes/users, but, obviously, fails for deleted
ones:
23.10.2014 13:29:46.939 [002280] [4032] : psex07ut.cpp (1848):
CreateExchange2010PowerShell(): Command-> Get-Mailbox -Identity

23.10.2014 13:29:46.971 [002280] [4032] : psex07ut.cpp (1852):
CreateExchange2010PowerShell(): Invoke has returned. psh->Streams.Error.Count = 1.
23.10.2014 13:29:46.971 [002280] [4032] : psex07ut.cpp (1859):
CreateExchange2010PowerShell(): Error message: 'Der Vorgang konnte nicht
ausgeführt werden, weil das Objekt 'f2bf81eb-efeb-4fdb-b6a7-08c4e01a82c8'

23.10.2014 13:29:46.971 [002280] [4032] : psex07ut.cpp (1899): Exit
CreateExchange2010PowerShell(), rc = 1856
So, guess what, level 2 came over with the usual "solution":
Ignore all errors, product is working as designed, as we've already opened a
docu-APAR:
http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg1IT03558
Or: play around with "show version" and "delete object" directly on the TSM
server to get rid of the deleted mailboxes in the mailboxinfo.
Running "show version" generates several GBytes of data, so finding the right
object-id is more or less like a raffle prize.
Actually, we don't care if the mailboxhistory never expires on the TSM server,
but:
Querying the "old" mailboxhistory on the TSM server for mailboxes to be backed
up instead of just asking Exchange / the AD controller for it? Sorry, but we
don't see the point.
Has anybody worked around this issue? Any hints appreciated.
Best regards,
Sven
