Get-ActiveSyncDeviceStatistics

This cmdlet is available in on-premises Exchange and in the cloud-based service. Some parameters and settings may be exclusive to one environment or the other.

Use the Get-ActiveSyncDeviceStatistics cmdlet to retrieve the list of mobile devices configured to synchronize with a specified user's mailbox and return a list of statistics about the mobile devices.

Note: This cmdlet works best in Exchange 2010. In later versions of Exchange or Exchange Online, use the Get-MobileDeviceStatistics cmdlet instead. If you have scripts that use Get-ActiveSyncDeviceStatistics, update them to use Get-MobileDeviceStatistics.

For information about the parameter sets in the Syntax section below, see Exchange cmdlet syntax.

Examples

Example 1

Get-ActiveSyncDeviceStatistics -Mailbox TonySmith

Example 2

$UserList = Get-CASMailbox -Filter "HasActiveSyncDevicePartnership -eq `$true -and -not DisplayName -like 'CAS_{*'"

Get-Mailbox $UserList | foreach {Get-ActiveSyncDeviceStatistics -Mailbox $_}

This example uses the Get-CASMailbox cmdlet to determine who in the organization has an Exchange ActiveSync mobile device. For each mobile device, the Exchange ActiveSync device statistics are retrieved.
