Move Archive - Stuck

We have two archives that we were moving to another site using the Move Archive Wizard.  After the Move task failed the first time we went ahead and move the mailbox and archive contents (PST) to the new Exchange server.  The Archives were never removed from the Move Archive and got re-run.  They are now stuck and we have not found a way to remove or delete them from Move Archive.  When we process them we get the following Event in the Event logs:

 

Move Status: Step 2 ofr 5 - Waiting to update shortcuts

Event ID 41244

Move Archive has entered a sleep state.

 

Reason: Waiting for shortcut processing. This will occur during the next scheduled or manual run of the archiving task on the destination server.

 

How do we get the two archives removed from the Move Archive tool using either the GUI or SQL script?

 

thank-you

  • Additionally the ExchangeMailboxEntry table for the two mailboxes on the destination site may contain a link to the subtask - you may want to clear that too.
