Ps session disconnecting
- Feb 27, 2023Could be the delimiter, I choose ' ; ' but perhaps it's ' , ' for you? And that's pretty slow. It is a lot of mailboxes of course, and how much RAM is PowerShell using in Task Manager during that?
Harm_Veenstra i am not an expert in PS, but tried something like below. however, it failed after getting information of 8500 mailboxes. i also see the error below
Could you help to correct the mistakes in the script? or guide me

AustinSundar You did export it to csv, but you also keep adding stuff to the $report variable making it bigger and bigger 😉 While testing it against my test tenant, I changed it to avoid errors when users have no archive. I also changed to customobject to something smaller and readable and added a counter:)
Could you test this one below and change the location to the csv file in the $reportpath variable to something else that matches your temp or data folder?
$reportpath='d:\temp\mailboxes.csv'
$Mbxs = Get-Mailbox -ResultSize unlimited -RecipientTypeDetails UserMailbox, SharedMailbox
$counter=1
foreach ($Mbx in $Mbxs) {
Write-Host ("Checking mailbox {0}/{1}" -f $counter, $mbxs.count)
$TotalItemSize = (Get-MailboxStatistics $Mbx.UserPrincipalName).TotalItemSize
$ItemCount = (Get-MailboxStatistics $Mbx.UserPrincipalName).ItemCount
$TotalDeletedItemSize = (Get-MailboxStatistics $Mbx.UserPrincipalName).TotalDeletedItemSize
if ($null -ne $mbx.ArchiveDatabase) {
$ArchiveName = $mbx.ArchiveName
$ArchiveTotalItemSize = (Get-MailboxStatistics $Mbx.UserPrincipalName -Archive -WarningAction SilentlyContinue).TotalItemSize
$ArchiveItemCount = (Get-MailboxStatistics $Mbx.UserPrincipalName -Archive -WarningAction SilentlyContinue).ItemCount
$ArchiveTotalDeletedItemSize = (Get-MailboxStatistics $Mbx.UserPrincipalName -Archive -WarningAction SilentlyContinue).TotalDeletedItemSize
}
else {
$ArchiveName = 'Not applicable'
$ArchiveTotalItemSize = 0
$ArchiveItemCount = 0
$ArchiveTotalDeletedItemSize = 0
}
$report = [PSCustomObject]@{
"DisplayName" = $mbx.DisplayName
"RecipientTypeDetails" = $mbx.RecipientTypeDetails
"PrimarySmtpAddress" = $mbx.PrimarySmtpAddress
"EmailAddresses" = $mbx.EmailAddresses
"RetentionPolicy" = $mbx.RetentionPolicy
"TotalItemSize" = $TotalItemSize
"ItemCount" = $ItemCount
"ArchiveName" = $ArchiveName
"AutoExpandingArchiveEnabled" = $mbx.AutoExpandingArchiveEnabled
"TotalDeletedItemSize" = $TotalDeletedItemSize
"ArchiveTotalItemSize" = $ArchiveTotalItemSize
"ArchiveItemCount" = $ArchiveItemCount
"ArchiveTotalDeletedItemSize" = $ArchiveTotalDeletedItemSize
}
$report | Export-Csv -Path $reportpath -Append -NoTypeInformation -Encoding UTF8 -Delimiter ';'
$counter++
}
My output is like this:

Harm_Veenstra i tried with less than 20 mailboxes. i am getting the output, but the format seems to be not correct .may be i need to check formatting in excel.
But when i tried to query all mailboxes, it seems be very slow to get the output. not sure if this is because of querying multiple items or number of mailboxes.
in 5hrs it queried only 2560 mailboxes- Feb 27, 2023Could be the delimiter, I choose ' ; ' but perhaps it's ' , ' for you? And that's pretty slow. It is a lot of mailboxes of course, and how much RAM is PowerShell using in Task Manager during that?
