More About New-MailboxRepairRequest<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
The New-MailboxRepairRequest cmdlet is used to find and fix Exchange mailbox corruption problems. This command can be executed to repair a particular mailbox or all mailboxes in the Exchange database.
\nWhen the cmdlet is executed, access to the specified mailbox (being repaired) is temporarily disrupted. However, if the command is run to repair all mailboxes in the database, the connection to only one mailbox that is being repaired is disrupted during the execution of the command. All other mailboxes prevailing in the specific database remain accessible and operational.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
