Archive quota

Hello all,

 

We have account with 'Office 365 Enterprise E3' license. this license has Unlimited Archive mailboxes storage. but we got error about overflow archive quota size.

After it we enable AutoExpandingArchive for organization and problem account. but nothing happened.

 

  We can not enable unlimited size for archive quota and do not know what to do with this problem. we need help.  please, help

 

thank you

      it seems you are right. I spent few days already and can`t solve this problem. They wrote after set up AutoExpandingArchive property I should wait 60 days.

       

      thank you

        The reason being that it takes time to set up the individual "shards" used to build expandable archive mailboxes and then populate those shards with data. That work is done by the Mailbox Replication Service behind the scenes, and it's a careful process to make sure that no data is lost. https://www.petri.com/exchange-bottomless-archives
