Hi, I recently had an incident where there were about 30 MySites deleted over the Christmas holidays. Our Italian office IT staff decided to change the phone numbers in AD without a ‘+’ on the front. The problem was I had a Connection filter: ‘telephoneNumber Contains +’, which marked all the Italian MySites for deletion. This happened the day after I broke up for Christmas, no one was informed as the Italian IT had not set managers on there AD properties.
When I got back from Christmas and found out what happened, I was lucky enough to only have only one compliant, and we told them to re-do their MySites, after we had sorted out the problem with the phone number in AD and re-synced. I am now trying to make this a bit more fool proof so if a Mysite is deleted again I can restore it from the recycle bin using ‘Get-SPDeletedSite –Identity “cf354174-c161-45c1-9273-c40f5cba45db” | Restore-SPDeletedSite’.
My question is, is there an overwrite switch for this command, as we had re-synced and a MySite for that particular user had been created with the same ID.I
