Moving Mailboxes between Mailbox servers

[EVGarrison]

Hi there,

We have 3 Mailbox servers (Exch2010) across 3 different sites and running EV10.0.4 - the EV server is aware of the 3 mailbox servers and is happily archiving mailboxes across the 3 servers.

Soon, due to organisation changes we will need to move mailboxes around from one mailbox server to another other.

My question is will we need to do anything after we have done the malbox moves from within exchange on the EV server? Or will the provisioning task pickup the fact the Mailbox was on ServerA and is now on ServerB and tie it all up nicely and continue to archive it?

I dont need disable the mailbox, Move mailbox, re enable the mailbox and associate with existing archive? Or anything else!

Regards

Hi EVGarrison, when you say "across 3 different sites" do you mean EV sites or Exchange/AD sites?

if it's all just one EV site then the only thing i recommend you do is look at the options for the SynchInMigrationMode registry setting and choose which one you think is best for your environment.

if you have 3 different EV sites then you'll havea lot to take into consideration
