A small PowerShell one-liner for checking used space in a Microsoft Exchange 2010 database:
Get-MailboxDatabase PL* -Status |SELECT name, databasesize, AvailableNewMailboxSpace, @{Name='Used';expression={$_.DatabaseSize.ToBytes()- $_.AvailableNewMailboxSpace.ToBytes()}}|sort-Object 'Used'
A small curiosity…
An AD user account was accidentally deleted. After quickly restoring or creating a new account in AD and recovering the files, in theory all that remains is to attach the mailbox to the new account.
In theory… because when the user tries to log in through OWA, they get this message:
Mailbox disabled, Exception type: Microsoft.Exchange.Data.Storage.AccountDisabledException
You still need to clean up and synchronize AD with the MS Exchange Store:
get-mailboxdatabase | Clean-MailboxDatabase

…data recovery can be tricky… 😉
In order to interact with the spacecraft we will need to locate the original commands and then develop a software recreation of the original hardware that was used [31 years ago] to communicate with the spacecraft. These are our two greatest challenges.
