Exchange 2010 - Deleted Mailbox Not Appearing in EMC Disconnected Mailbox

I was working on one issue that my customer had, the disconnected mailbox does not appear immediately in the EMC when he accidentally disconnect one of the user's mailbox.

 The reason behind is the online maintenance wasn't complete and below is the powershell command that will show the disconnected mailbox on  the EMC.

Get-Mailboxdatabase | Clean-Mailboxdatabase

By running the command it will clean all the databases in the entire organization,  the disconnected mailbox should display in the EMC now.

Windows Server 2012 Hyper-V - Disk Error Read Only

I was working on one project that ran into a small issue, when I try to save a VM into the SAN, "Disk Error Read Only" appears. I resolve this issue by running:

1. open "CMD"
2. type "diskpart"
3. list disk (determine the correct disk that having the issue)
4. select disk 1 (for example disk 1 is the one that causing the issue)
5. attributes disk (list the attributes of disk 1)
6. attributes disk clear randomly (set the randomly attribute to no)
7. attributes disk (display the new result after step no.6)
8. exit
