new mailbox has an existing entry

Had a problem with a mailbox where it had to be deleted and then recreated because it got split during a move while ttt(idna) was running. Now when I try to provision the new mailbox it says.
 
new mailbox has an existing entry in the enterprise vault database.
 
Any suggestions? I can move the mailbox to the other server to see if it syncs up again. If you think that will work.

Try to disable the Mailbox for archiving, maybe this helps.
If not, I'd suggest to open a case with Symantec, they can probably give you directions on how to delete the entry from the Database.

On the SQL server
 
Check the EnterpriseVaultDirectory Database.
 
There is a table named ExchageServerMailboxEntry.
 
You may need to run a query like
 
select  * from  ExchageServerMailboxEntry where mbxalias='HIS_ALIAS'
 
post the line.
