I tried to migrate one of them – there was no error but all day says: syncing and nothing happens. Can I migrate mailboxes between DAG with database copy or I have to remove database copy and then migrate?

This is an old thread but in case someone else has this issue. I believe the issue associated with only some users being prompted for a password when starting Outlook is that Outlook Anywhere on the Exchange 2010 servers is disabled. They get prompted for a password if they have access to a delegate mailbox that is still on Exchange 2010.

I have a question..
If the migration batch is still on process, the users still can access their mailbox or no ?

Thanks

thanks for the article and it very informative. I had started a migration batch and ran into space issue, now i had stopped the move request but still the space didn’t get retained. can you guide me how to reclaim that space which is used to copy the items from one DB to other DB.

Thanks in advance.

Do you recommend enabling circular logging on the target databases when migrating?
Moving form 2007 to 2013 to a DAG environment? And if you do so, the circular logging only gets enable on the active databases? Thanks t

The custom quotas will be preserved in the move. If you’re ever unsure about this type of thing then the best thing to do is to create a test case and run through the scenario to see the outcome.

I have got a question for you regarding mailbox sizes. I am about to migrate mailboxes from a Exchange 2010 environment to Exchange 2016. The prohibit send limit is set to 10 gb for all databases. However we have a select number of users were we have set the prohibit send quota to 15 gb.

Im struggling to find whether the custom quotas will be transferred during the migration or will I have to take other measures?

Picked at random I believe.

Or is it just picked at random?

But, the last one I tried to move is stuck in the ‘Queued’ state. When I run ‘Get-MailboxDatabaseCopyStatus’ I get ContentIndexState=’FailedAndSuspended’ and ErrorMessage = ‘Reseeding of the index is required’. I went ahead and stopped the two search services and deleted the folder, but I don’t think it is rebuilding the index.

Any ideas on what to do next?
