Exchange store ‘First Storage Group\Mailbox Store (RWMSVR03)’: The current physical size of this database (the .edb file and the .stm file) is 53 GB. This database has exceeded the size limit of 50 GB. However, the logical free space in this database has not yet been evaluated. Therefore, it is possible that this database contains enough free space to bring its logical size below the maximum size limit.
If the logical database size exceeds the maximum size limit, it will be dismounted on a regular basis.

where <server_name> is the name of the Exchange server, and <GUID> (which will vary between installations) is the same as the objectGUID attribute on the database’s Active Directory object entry.
