Hi, Is it only one default mailbox which get create when do the installation ?. What about if you create new databse thru EMC and then check in EMS ? What about if you use Grt-Mailboxdatabse -server "Serve Name" Anil MCC 2011,ITIL V3,MCSA 2003,MCTS 2010, My Blog : http://messagingschool.wordpress.com

Hello Anil, My apologies for the late reply. When I specify the server (as you mentioned) the database is shown. However without that I still get a 'Value Cannot be Null' message. Yes, this is the default database created during installation, and was populated via a mailbox move from my old exchange 2007 server. Kind Regards

Hello, I am running version: 14.00.0639.021. I am going to make a copy of this server and apply the updates (to protect against any problems to my primary server). Thank you for your advice, I will let you know the results.
