Setting Mailbox Quota Powershell

I will provide an example of powershell script that you can customize to use in order to setup the Exchange 2007 Mailbox Quota. In the example below the Powershell script will set the Quota Warning for 200mb and then Prohibit Send at 250mb and Prohibit Send and Receive at 280mb. Also it will run the Quota Notification between 2:00 AM - 3:AM on Sunday and Wednesday

Set-MailboxDatabase -Identity "Server1\MailboxDatabase1" -IssueWarningQuota 209715200 -ProhibitSendQuota 262144000 -ProhibitSendReceiveQuota 293601280 -QuotaNotificationSchedule "Sun.2:00-Sun.3:00","Wed.2:00-Wed.3:00"

Error when moving mailbox

Problem:

When moving a mailbox from Legacy E2k Server to E2k7 server, you receive an error message:
Summary: 1 item(s). 0 succeeded, 1 failed.
Elapsed time: 00:00:00


Error:
Domain Controller 'OLDDCNAME' Operating System version is 5.0 (2195) Service Pack 4. The minimum version required is 5.2 (3790) Service Pack 1.

Solution:

Just to give you a little background I have a Windows 2000 DC with Exchange 2000 installed on it, and a Windows 2003 R2 running SP2. So what I had to do to fix the problem was to Remove the checkbox for Global Catalog for Windows 2000 DC from Active Directory Sites and Services and then restart the Windows 2000 DC.

After that the Mailbox Move did not give me the above error message

Problem:

While installing or Uninstalling Microsoft Exchange 2007 from the command line using Setup.com and various applicable switches you receive the following error message:
"An unexpected error has occurred and a Watson dump is being generated: Unexpect
ed error [0x116DCE11] while executing command '$error.Clear(); uninstall-Exsetda
taAtom -AtomName SMTP -DomainController $RoleDomainController'.
Unexpected error [0x116DCE11] while executing command '$error.Clear(); unin

Exchange Server Encountered and Error

Solution:

Background

I was installing the hub transport, client access, mailbox and management tools using the setup.com

setup.com /mode:install /r:h,c,m,t /t:"d:\program files\Microsoft Exchange Server"

So when Uninstalling i received the error message. I was using the following command

setup.com /mode:uninstall

Changing the above command slightly by including the roles that I wanted to uninstall I was able to complete the command successfully

setup.com /mode:uninstall /r:h,c,m,t

An unexpected error has occurred and a Watson dump is being generated: Access t

Problem: When doing an Unattended setup for Microsoft Exchange 2007 using the setup.com command and switches you receive the following error message:

An unexpected error has occurred and a Watson dump is being generated: Access t
o the path 'X:\Setup\ServerRoles\Common\64' is denied.I had same problems as some of you indicated, where X is the drive letter for your DVD ROM drive.

I was installing Exchange 2007 from Production Copy DVD of Exchange 2007 Standard. Here is the strategy that I took after receiving the errors on multiple occassions.

Background:

We have 1 Win2K SP4 DC and 1 Win2k3 R2 DC, so installing Exchange 2007 from GUI is a NONO, atleast according to all the readings that I have done. So the only option is to install from command line using the Unattended setup (Setup.com) with various different switches. You can not use Setup.exe with switches.

When I was receiving the error message of:
"An unexpected error has occurred and a Watson dump is being generated: Access to the path 'X:\Setup\ServerRoles\Common\64' is denied.", I was installing all the roles at one time using the following command line:

setup.com /mode:install /r:h,c,m,t /t:"d:\program files\Microsoft\Exchange S
erver" /DomainController:DCNAME /EnableLegacyOutlook /LegacyRoutingServer:LegacyExchangeName /EnableErrorReporting

and I would receive the error message.

I then tried to install all the roles seperately using the following command lines one at a time and every thing was successful.

Solution:

PS: Please replace DCNAME with the name of your Win2k3 SP1 DC and LegacyExchangeName with your E2k or E2k3 Exchange Server.
