Connecting a disconnected archive to a mailbox other than primary

We had an issue with the server that was hosting our archive databases. While we were getting it corrected, all of the archive mailboxes were disconnected from the primary mailboxes and new archives were created. The problem with the server was corrected,
and I have been in the process of reconnecting the disconnected archives back to the primary mailbox. The problem we are running in to is that everyone is now missing 2 - 4 weeks of archived e-mail that is in the new archives that was created. We have
to be able to access this e-mail for legal purposes. I have upped the retention period for holding on to those disconnected archives, so we don't lose them after 30 days. I'm wondering if there is a way to connect these disconnected archives to a different
mailbox, so that this e-mail can be retained. I tried connecting the disabled archive to a mailbox other than the primary user using the following shell command
[PS] C:\Windows\system32>Connect-Mailbox -Identity "815ad6d6-2ee4-4c77-9c14-d0bfb696da37" -Archive -User "Archive Retent
ion" -Database "Archive1"
but found out that the guid of both archive mailboxes are the same. Anybody have any ideas how I can connect a disconnected archive to a user other than the primary user? I hope this hasn't been to confusing. I'll try to sum up here:
1. Archives got disconnected
2. New archives got created
3. Now in the process of reconnecting archives from number 1 to primary mailbox
4. There are now e-mails in the new archives from number 2 that need to be accessed
5. Trying to figure out how to connect the disconnected archives from number 2 to a different mailbox in order to access and retain the e-mails.
Thanks.
James
P.S.
I did find this article --
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb232039.aspx -- that suggests that connecting an archived mailbox
to a mailbox other than the primary is not possible. So, maybe I'm looking for suggestions of how I can access the e-mail from these disconnected archives.

Agree with Andy. Seems like there is no easy way to recover the items from the additional archive mailbox.
If you decide to export the archive item into pst file, you can use cmdlet New-MailboxExportRequest
-IsArchive
New-MailboxExportRequest
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff607299.aspx
Or due to the important and urgent, I would suggest you make a phone to PSS directly.

  • I have upgraded to Mac OS X v10.7 Lion and when I log into mail I can't find my mailboxes other than inbox, draft and sent how do I get my other mailboxes back?

    I have upgraded to Mac OS X v10.7 Lion and when I log into mail I can't find my mailboxes other than inbox, draft and sent how do I get my other mailboxes back?

    Lion is a bit of a memory hog - kernel_task will use quite a bit and Safari is known to use more; you can't do anything about the system, but changing to Firefox may help a little. The best way to deal with it is to increase your RAM; the required minimum is just that: the minimum. My Macbook would keep crashing and beachballing until I upped the RAM to 4 GB. RAM is inexpensive right now - check out OWC (macsales.com) or Crucial.com; both reputable RAM vendors with lifetime warranties. You won't regret it.
    As for iDVD - I purchased the retail iLife 11 disk because of iDVD (because I use that a lot) - it's available at online resellers, the Apple Store, and ebay.

  • ICal crashes on adding Google Calendar (other than primary)

    Hey Guys
    When I add a Google Calendar in iCal which is created by me in Google. iCal keeps on crashing on startup. I have sent bug report like 100 times in past 4-5 months.. Don't see any update coming in 10.7.3
    Anyone else has this crash? I am talking about adding calendar other than the primary google calendar. iCal says it as Delegation. And it does show read and write access. I created it in Google
    And it's just ANY delegation calendar I add.. not a particular one.. All are created by me in my google account.

    Hi,
    I think your problem is to do with the calendar data, and that you have a corruption in multiple calendars. Try the last two suggestions in my post here (which is slightly different to the advice I gave in the other thread you posted to):

  • Unable to connect to disconnected archive mailbox

    Hi,
    We are using exchange 2013 CU3 in our environment, When we try to connect to a disconnected mailbox using EAC or powershell it gets succeeds for Primary mailbox however if I try the same way to connect archive mailbox it throws me a error "The legacy
    DN is already in use by following active directory user " Primary mailbox User name". The vaule Legacy DN must be unique to each other
    can anyone help me in this ? Is this a bug in exchange 2013 ?

    You Can do that . Do the Following steps : 
    1)Enable old AD user 
    2)Enable Exchange mailbox for old user (Don't enable Archive Mailbox)
    3)Open Exchange Powershell cmd then :  (This is an example)
         Enable-Mailbox -ArchiveGuid "0a914fb5-78a4-4f54-8a99-55e12dd0d738" -ArchiveDatabase "Archive
    Dtabase name "            -Identity "Anderiasian , Edna"
    4)by this command the archive linked to old user 
    5) after completing , export the archive mailbox to  PST file 
    6)Import PST file to New User Archive-Mailbox ;

  • Can I make a connection from Apple TV to HD television other than HDMI?

    Question:
    With only 2 HDMI ports on my HD TV, and the apparent need for 3 -1 for a Blu-Ray DVD player, 1 for connection to Apple TV, and one to connect to HD cable modem, I feel stuck.
    What do I have to do, how much will i be giving up?
    Is getting a cable box with two HDMI connectors the solution?
    Or other equipment?
    Tthanks,

    Cable modems do not have HDMI ports and do not connect to tvs.  Maybe you mean a cable set-top box?

  • Is there another way of connecting mail 5.1 to exchange 2003 other than DavMail?

    I am using Entourage 2008 which works fine but is a bit dated now and ideally would like to use Mail 5.1 but from what I can gather DavMail only works where exchange has web access enabled unfortunately given that I have to access exchange via a VPN I dont think that this is a viable option. Any help would be appreciated.

    Also - what gives with questions aobut tagged text - I've noticed that 4 postings about this have gone unanswered - not jsut mine but others as well?
    I've been wondering that myself, but I've not had any answers for those posters. (I don't think that "Yeah, I used tagged text in Quark or PageMaker in the 90s, but these days anything that I would have wanted to do with tagged text would be easier to do with XML" would be very helpful.)

  • How do I add a before and after transition to a standalone clip in the second or other than primary stack?

    New to FCPX on a project this weekend. I have gotten reasonably comfortable with the basic features but one thing that I CANNOT figure out, is how (what used to be) selecting a track in the timeline to activate it to apply a transition.  I need to select a video clip which stands alone in the stack which is positioned above the primary track and add a blend transition before and after the clip. I have set the opacity to blend with the images in the primary track below but the beginning and end of the clip in the second stack do not fall at the transition points in the lower track which should not matter anyway.  I can’t find it in Help or the third party tutorials that I purchased and completed.  Thanks for your help!

    Tom gave you the answer.  As a follow-on you can then use the Cross Dissolve transition on your newly converted connected clip.  This transition will allow it to dissolve smoothly into the video below it.  Note that the Fade to Black transition will take both that clip and the video below it to black which would probably be undesirable. Use Cross Dissolve instead.  Best wishes.

  • Sql server 2000 connect with other than jdbc?

    Is there any other way to connect to a Sql Server 2000 database other than with jdbc? My problem actually resides in the fact that I did a small program to test the connection to the database and it works perfectly on my computer but on the server that it's going to stay on, it doesn't.
    the program is classic:
    try{
         DriverManager.registerDriver(new com.microsoft.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver());     
         Connection connection = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver://12.345.67.890\ \INSTANCENAME:1433;databaseName=NAME;selectMethod=cursor;","user","pass");
    if (connection != null) {
         System.out.println("Successfully connected");
    this small program works ok on my computer(win xp, tomcat 6) but on the other computer(ubuntu, tomcat 5.2) says
    Exceptionjava.sql.SQLException: [Microsoft][SQLServer 2000 Driver for JDBC]The requested instance is either invalid or not running.
    I pinged the ip(12.3...) from the server and it works. So I can't figure out what could cause the error. I tried 20 different connection string and don't work. I'm thinking it might have to do with using MS jdbc drivers on a unix platform? or maybe it's from the server firewall(it's a virtual server), anybody can confirm if they had similar problem? Since I can't figure out the problem, I'm trying to test connection using something else than jdbc but google didn't help much
    thanks in advance!

Obviously.

    I'm thinking it might have to do with using MS jdbc drivers on a unix platform? Why would that matter if you're using type IV 100% Java JDBC drivers?
    or maybe it's from the server firewall(it's a virtual server), anybody can confirm if they had similar problem? If you can ping it successfully, how can it be a firewall issue?
    You're doing something else wrong.

  • When i plug the USB for my iPad into my computer it will connect then disconnect over and over again untill i wiggle the usb around alot. This is happening to all my ports. But not on the other computer.

    Hi. Whenever i plug my iPad (Happens with ipod and iphone too) to my computer usb for itunes is will connect, then disconnect over and over again. It has happened for a long time but doesnt happen on my other computer. how do i fix this?

    If you have a spare cable, try using that.  But the fact that this doesn't happen on your other computer (I assume using the same old cable) leads me to conclude that something else is at work.  Maybe even the "bad" computer.

  • My iphone4 when connected to any computer will not charge and is constantly connected and disconnected.  does the same with itunes.  Also i'm talking on the phone and all of a sudden the other person can not hear me.

    My iphone4 when connected to any computer will not charge and is constantly connecting and disconnecting.  It does the same with itunes so it doesnt really sync.  Also when talking to someone, all of a sudden they cant hear me.

    I'm having the same issue. I went to my local apple store and they could not work me into the genius bar so i made an appointment for tomorrow morning. The clerk did check the phone for the pink indicators at the top and bottom of the phone (where you plug in your USB or headphones) He said if you can see a pink indicator dot you may have gotten it wet, or had some sort of condensation in it, which could cause the plugs to not work.
    In regards to people not being able to hear you, i'm waiting for my appointment tomorrow for more news! I would recommend taking it into your local apple store for more answers.

  • Mag Safe power cord sparks when connected or disconnected--whereupon the MacBook Pro 13'' dumps date and time, and all passwords, plus any/all unsaved information.

    I purchased my MacBook Pro 13" from the Apple Store in Tucson, AZ, in mid-January. Since then, every time the Mag-Safe cord is jostled, not even disconnected, sparks fly from the power terminal on the computer, the computer shuts down, and dumps its passwords, as well as the date and time.
    Any work in progress is also lost.
    I work overseas, and Apple's advice was to give them my credit card number, await shipment of a new power supply and cord, and then, when I return the old power supply and cord, i'd receive a credit. That won't work, as packages from the US to my location take weeks if they arrive at all. There is no Apple Store within a reasonable distance. Or, Apple suggests, when I'm home on leave in mid-June, I should bring the computer to the Apple Store for repair--I have only days in which to do that, but I suppose I'll need to try. My concern is that I'll need to return overseas without my computer and won't be able to retrieve it for months, until my next leave.
    This issue shows up elsewhere online. Is there a short in the power terminal in the computer, or on the Mag-Safe power cord, or within the computer itself? It's a known issue, thus I wonder why it hasn't been fixed.

  • Exchange 2010 disconnect AD user from mailbox and reconnect the mailbox to a new copy of the same user with a different username

    How can i get the following done:
    Exchange 2010 disconnect AD user from mailbox and reconnect the mailbox to a new copy of the same user with a different username?
    i nmust do this for 16 users TODAY, SO PLEASE HELP ME OUT HERE.
    Thanks in advance!!
    kind regards,
    Rene Veldman
    System Administrator Teidem bv, The Netherlands.

    Rene,
    Why are you not changing the username of the existing account, instead of deleting the existing one and creating a new one?
    If you truly need to delete and create new, you can save the GUID for the mailbox (Get-MailboxStatistics <mailbox alias> | Fl MailboxGuid), mail disable the existing account (Disable-Mailbox <mailbox alias>
    will work), clean the mailbox database it was hosted on (Clean-MailboxDatabase
    <database name>), then create your new account and recover the existing mailbox to that new account (Connect-Mailbox -Identity <Guid from before> -Database <Database name> -User <SAM account name of new account> -Alias
    <what you wish to set the alias to>).  In PowerShell, for all steps, you would do the following:
    $MbxAlias = <mailbox alias>
    $NewMbxAcct = <SAM Account Name for new account>
    $NewMbxAlias = <new alias for mailbox>
    $DomCtrl = (dir env:\LOGONSERVER).Value.Substring(2)
    $MbxGuid = (Get-MailboxStatistics $MbxAlias -DomainController $DomCtrl).MailboxGuid
    $MbxDb = (Get-Mailbox $MbxAlias -DomainController $DomCtrl).Database
    Disable-Mailbox $MbxAlias
    Clean-MailboxDatabase $MbxDb
    Connect-Mailbox -Identity $MbxGuid -Database $MbxDb -User $NewMbxAcct -Alias $NewMbxAlias -DomainController $DomCtrl
    You will need to supply the information in bold in the above commands, and you will need to create the new account before you run the above commands.  I include direct use of a specific domain controller so you won't need to worry about replication. 
    If you are changing the account from one domain to another, this will not help, and you will need to wait for replication throughout the process, running the commands individually.

  • Online Archive for Shared Mailbox Shows Main Mailbox SMTP Address, Not Shared Mailbox

    First off, we are running Exchange 2010 with Outlook 2010.  Exchange is running SP3UR5 and is stable.  Outlook has the latest updates.
    We have archive mailboxes on all our production mailboxes.  We automatically archive items older than two years into these.  We have several colleagues who have access to one or more shared mailboxes, who had no issues when they were using a Windows
    XP workstation.  However, when they were moved to our Windows 7 systems, their archive folders all show their primary mailbox SMTP address. If you click on a folder in the archive mailbox, the search bar shows the correct mailbox name. And to confuse
    things just a little bit more, the primary mailbox for these shared mailboxes shows the correct name.  Has anyone else seen this, and, more importantly, does anyone know of a solution? TIA ...

    Hello Willard,
    As Andy mentioned, this issue is a known issue which resolved in Exchange 2010 SP3 RU2. I know we are currently running Exchange 2010 SP3 RU5, however to resolve
    the issue, we need to install hotfix for Outlook clients as well. Please refer to the following hotfixes for Outlook 2010 and 2013:
    Note: Exchange 2010 SP3 Ru2 or later will update the “OwnerSmtpAddress”
    for all alternate mailbox. And before applying the following Outlook hotfix, we should have RU2 installed first.
    Outlook 2010 hotfix:
    Description of the Outlook 2010 hotfix package (Outlook-x-none.msp): August 13, 2013
    http://support.microsoft.com/KB/2817574  
    Issue description: You connect to Microsoft Exchange Server 2010 mailbox
    by using Microsoft Outlook 2010. When you enable the feature that lets you view the online archive of a manager in Outlook 2010, two online archives that have the same name are displayed. To resolve this issue, you must also have Exchange Server 2010 Service
    Pack 3 (SP3) Update Rollup 2 installed
    Outlook 2013 hotfix:
    Description of the Outlook 2013 hotfix package (Outlook-x-none.msp): August 13, 2013
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2817503  
    Issue description: When you enable the feature to see the online archive
    of the manager in Outlook 2010, two online archives that have the same name are displayed.
    After apply both update for Exchange server and Outlook client, the issue will be resolved accordingly. And I recommend to install the latest updates for Outlook
    clients:
    Title: How to install the latest applicable updates for Microsoft Outlook (US English only)
    Link:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2625547
    Moreover, the issue will affect the “auto-mapping” archive mailboxes, since the issue only affect few users, please check the differences on the Outlook client side,
    and make sure the version and patches/updates are the same. If needed, we can first remove the auto-mapping full access permission, then re-add non-auto-mapping full access permission, at last, add
    additional mailbox from Outlook manually, thus it will not diplay same name for the archive mailbox we access.
    Remove the full access permission:
    Remove-MailboxPermission –Identity “Shared_mailbox” –User “affected_user_mailbox” –AccessRights FullAccess
       2.Re-add the full access permission with non-auto-mapping:
    Add-MailboxPermission -Identity “Shared_mailbox”
    -User “affected_user_mailbox”
    -AccessRight FullAccess -InheritanceType All -Automapping $false
       3. Then on the affected user mailbox outlook side,
    add additional mailbox manually.
    Please refer to above information and if anything unclear, feel free to let me know.

    If you are getting connection refused, either the server isn't listening on the port you have specified or there is a firewall intervening.
    Can you connect to the database using any other MSSQL client tools (query analyzer for instance?) If so, make sure the setting you have there are the same in sqldeveloper.
