Exchange 2007 out of disk space error
Hi,
I have a 110GB global mail box sitting in the journal. This mailbox has all the organization emails. I am trying to delete emails from the month of may 2013. After inserting the following command i am getting "there is not enough space available" error. I am using a 32-bit machine for running power shell which is separate to the exchange server.
Get-Mailbox -Identity globalmail | Export-Mailbox -TargetMailbox testuser -StartDate "01/05/2013 " -EndDate "31/15/2009 " -DeleteContent
I am then prompted for supplying values for target folder, i have just put inbox.
Global Mailbox is on the C drive of the exchange server and it has 45GB free out of 599GB

Try doing smaller chunks as the local powershell will be trying to build a list of emails to the delete them, there shouldn't be a server limitation for this.
try a few weeks, then months and increase until you have removed the period you want or figured out the limit of processing

There was typo error, the dates are between 01/05/2013 to 31/05/2013.
Testuser exists, do i need to delegate access to testuser for global mailbox

I have managed to delete the emails and the properties of global mailbox shows reduced size but the database size hasn't reduced
Global mailbox is located in a database residing in journal

Does the "testuser" mailbox exist? Also, you need to reverse your start and end dates. The start date should be the earliest date.
