Hi Paul,

I have once questions if our back team is scheduled the backup for exchange so how I can verify that backup is complete or pending on exchange server

In my Exchange environment we have some legacy exchange server which is going to decommission very soon, when I’m running this script it is connecting all servers and throwing error, is it possible to ignore legacy servers or give last of server for backup report.

Hi George, thanks for pointing those out. I’d actually recommend people use the much better script found here for monitoring Exchange database backups.

I’ll add a note at the start of this post.

$mbdbs = Get-MailboxDatabase -Status
$pfdbs = Get-PublicFolderDatabase -Status
$dbs = $mbdbs,$pfdbs

This will work.

In the script itself look for the Get-MailboxDatabase command, and you can just modify that to exclude the ones you’re not monitoring.

Your execution policy is not allowing the unsigned script to run. Use Set-ExecutionPolicy to Unrestricted and try again.
