Online Archive Not Working for One User
Hi, I am experiencing an issue with the online archive for one of my users. The online archive has been working correctly for this user for years, but it has not archived any emails for the past six...
What is the current Online Archive size for the impacted user, is auto-expanding archive enabled?
To check the current archive size for a given user, the following PowerShell can be used:
Get-MailboxStatistics -Identity <user> -Archive | Select-Object TotalItemSize
To check if AutoExpandingArchive is enabled, the following PowerShell can be used:
Get-Mailbox -Identity <user> | Select-Object AutoExpandingArchiveEnabled
"Each Exchange Online Archiving subscriber initially receives 100 GB of storage in the archive mailbox. When auto-expanding archiving is turned on, additional storage space is automatically added when the 100 GB storage capacity is reached. This incremental addition of storage space continues until the archive storage reaches 1.5 TB."
Interestingly, the Archive seems to be growing, even though there don´t appear to be any new emails in it!
Get-MailboxStatistics -Identity $email -Archive | Select-Object TotalItemSize
TotalItemSize
-------------
19.68 GB (21,134,117,552 bytes)
