PST Migrator issue?

[Codec]

Hello,

I've just a short question regarding PST import/migration. I'am running server based PST import and it seems all works fine, but after a successful import (I use only the option "Hide it to help you see how many PST s are left to migrate") I'm not able to open those imported PST's again, they seems to be empty. Is that a normal behavior or the content really getting deleted in the PST drung/after the import?

Thank you very much for any ansewer.

The items in the PSTs will be removed after successful import into EV.

Check if the PST is marked as read Only .

Hello,

Items getting deleted from PST file after migration is controlled by the following setting which is found under Policies - Exchange - PST  Migration - PostMigration Tab.

Hope this helps.

@RRE - that's not correct.  That is whether the PST file is deleted post successful migration or not.

Items in the PST file will always be removed once archived.

So your PSt files were not deleted they were just marked as reas only . Right ?

No, the PST wasn't marked as "read only", only as hidden. So I was just wondering why I couldn't see any itmes in the PST's left after the import. On of our customer complain that the import was not complete and I was searching for a way to compare the PST against the imported content.
