Description

The Clear-RemoteAccessInboxAccountingStore cmdlet clears the inbox accounting store for the specified time period.

The store for inbox accounting resides locally on every Remote Access server and the clearing operation happens at the server level. Therefore this cmdlet is not impacted by a multi-site deployment.

Note: If neither a start date nor an end date is specified, then the entire inbox accounting store is cleared.

When a store is cleared more space becomes available to record accounting data.

This cmdlet can be used to clear portions of the store even if inbox accounting is Disabled. This is because the store exists even when inbox accounting is later disabled.

Examples

EXAMPLE 1

PS C:\>$startdate = Get-Date -Date "1/1/2011"



PS C:\>$startdate
Saturday, January 01, 2011 12:00:00AM


PS C:\>$enddate = Get-Date -Date "1/3/2011"



PS C:\>$enddate
Tuesday, March 01, 2011 12:00:00AM


PS C:\>Clear-RemoteAccessInboxAccountingStore -StartDateTime $startdate -EndDateTime $enddate -PassThru
Confirm
Emptying the store will delete the accounting data in accordance with the specified settings. Do you want to continue?

[Y] Yes  [N] No  [S] Suspend  [?] Help  (default is ꞌYꞌ): Y

InboxAccountingStatus      : Enabled
StoreLimit                 : 12m
