Exchange 2010 – Get Mailbox Database Mount status

Just do a check with powershell!

Open your Exchange Management Shell and use a combination of Get-MailboxDatabase with the -status option and you find the Mount-status (True/False) in Mounted attribute.

Put that all together in one command, you probably want something like :

Get-MailboxDatabase -Status | ft Name, Server, Mounted

Name                 Server Mounted
----                 ------ -------
Mail01-DB01          MAIL01    True
Mail01-DB02          MAIL01    True
Mail01-DB03          MAIL01    True

This can be easily used in a monitoring script!
