As stated in my previous post, I am no scripting guru or will I ever claim to be. My primary purpose for creating this script is to force myself to learn about PowerShell scripting.
I am sure that there is a more efficient or better approach here, so please leave comments and let me know.
The following script is written to migrate mailboxes (from Exchange 2003, 2007, or 2010) to an Exchange 2010 database. This script could easily be modified if your target database was on Exchange 2007, but for now it is just written for Exchange 2010.

ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing this information. But the article is targeting migration into Exchange 2010 mailboxes. But I tried the above mentioned way too for migration into Exchange 2013 from 2007, but couldn't get success.
ReplyDeleteTherefore I went for a utility of Exchange Migration. But in the process of finding a utility, I came to know that it isn't possible to migrate mailboxes directly from one exchange server to another. Therefore I followed the way to Export Exchange mailboxes into PST and then import all PST files into another exchange server, and then configured all services like OWA, ECP etc in a proper manner.
It was really an effortless way of migration with export & import mailbox technique by using Exchange recovery tool.
Really good article, It provides the step by step guide to exchange server 2007 sp3and I saw more information about this topic from https://softcart.wordpress.com/exchange-server-migration/ that helps to migrate any exchange server to exchange server.
