Find the DN of all the databases in your Exchange 2010 organisation

To find the DN of all the databases in your Exchange 2010 organisation, you can run a simple cmdlet in Powershell


Get-Mailboxdatabase | fl Name,DistinguishedName


If you would like to extract the DN's for a specific site for example your Hong Kong site and all the database names start with a distinguishing HK prefix:


Get-Mailboxdatabase HK* | fl Name,DistinguishedName


Alternatively you can extract it out to a list if your result list is quite long:


Get-Mailboxdatabase | fl Name,DistinguishedName >DN.txt
