Exportmailbox issue 1

[intel233]

I am trying to export a mailbox to PST.
I started with New-MailboxExportRequest -Mailbox user -filepath \\server\share\filename.pst

It keeps failing and I am not sure why. I have been trying to do Resume-MailboxExportRequest -identity user\mailboxexport

That fails as well. Is there a command that will show why its failing or maybe a switch that tells if just to keep going if something get stuck?

What message is it failing with? How do you know that it's failing? Telling us how something fails is often at least as important as telling us what you are trying to do.

Just guessing though, I would add "-acceptlargedataloss -baditemlimit 500" to your command. That will keep it from failing on corrupted items.

I do Get-mailboxExportRequest and the status is Failed.
Can I add acceptlargedataloss -baditemlimit 500 to Resume-MailboxExportRequest?

No, I would just delete the current requests and reissue the original command with the extra commands.

get-mailboxexportrequest | remove-mailboxexportrequest
new-mailboxexportrequest .... etc

I noticed that you've started 90 threads on TT but never once starred one as helpful. It would be nice if you could go back through your "greatest hits" and put stars on any specifically helpful posts so that other readers could more easily identify threads with good answers in them.
