Migrating Journal mailbox from Exchange 2010 to Exchange 2013

Wanted to check the best possible approach to migrate Exchange Journal mailbox from one Exchange version to another from EV perspective.  Objective is to have minimal downtime and journal data loss....

    Hi,

    this is basically how I'd do it. You could also create a new journal archive before creating the journal mailbox in EV for the new servers but if you would like to have all journal data within one archive you can keep it as it is. 

    The following discussion also contain some good details for the process of migrating and how things can be handled in general. This also applies to Exchange 2013:

Thanks Marcde, yes we would maintain a single archive. The Exchange 2016 discussion link was very helpful.
