MailboxRepairRequest in PS outcome

A recent Exchange server migration from Exchange 2010 for a client failed when it was found that a mailbox contained a corruption..

New-MailboxRepairRequest was initiated and I am aware that there is no corresponding Get-MailboxRepairRequest command to get the results/outcome.

Was this ever resolved? What became the method by which we see how it went. A few searches show no suitable information that gives guidance on finding out if the repair worked or found other errors.

I add it seems very bizarre to create a PS command to fix an issue and not have a corresponding command to see when it has completed and the outcome. We've elected to wait 3-4 days in the hope it is done before we try again. :(

Hi @ShaneKing-9045

Yes. This cmdlet Get-MailboxRepairRequest is not available in Exchange server 2010.

Instead, you may check the Event Viewer and search for the Events for Mailbox Repair Requests.
Here is a Microsoft article on this topic for your reference: View Mailbox Repair Request Entries in Event Viewer
