Exchange 2010 delete the first mailbox database

As you can see, there are no mailboxes left in de mailbox database, but why we are still receiving this error!! This is the answer…….there are two hidden mailboxes left in de mailbox database, called arbitration mailboxes. With the following command you’re able to see this mailboxes

Get-Mailbox -Database DB01 -Arbitration | ft -wrap -auto

 

To move a mailbox using the shell, run the command

New-MoveRequest –identity username –TargetDatabase “database name”

Once the mailbox move is initialized, you can check the status by running

Get-MoveRequest –identity username

 

Get-MoveRequest Get-MoveRequestStatistics ft Alias,Status,PercentComplete -auto
