Mailbox migration between two Exchange 2013 servers is horribly slow

Hi,
when migrating mailbox between 2 exchange 2013 servers,it s horribly slow. I have found some articles which describing problems about content indexing and missing AD group. This is not my problem, I have tried solutions but it didn't work. Both exchange
are next to each one, same VLAN, same switch. Just migrating between databases.
When I start batch jobs it is migrating only 1 mailbox at once and speed is really slow (2000 - 3000 mail items per 5 minutes). So mailboxes which have 10GB it's migrating 3 hours. My server is on 1gbps LAN.
I have also checked MsExchangeMailboxReplication.exe.config on both servers:
    MaxActiveMovesPerSourceMDB="20"
    MaxActiveMovesPerTargetMDB="20"
    MaxActiveMovesPerSourceServer="100"
    MaxActiveMovesPerTargetServer="100"
    MaxTotalRequestsPerMRS="100"
Do you have any idea where to look why only 1 mailbox is migrating at once?
Thanks

Hello,
For the reason why only 1 mailbox is migrating at once when you start batch jobs, there is no official articles or blog to explain it.
I recommend you check if the speed is slower when you move a smaller mailbox. If the issue doesn't occur, I recommend you set
the AllowLargeItems parameter.
Here are some articles for your reference.

  • Moving witness server to CAS server two Exchange 2013 servers with a DAG

    Inherited a situation where there is one Exchange 2007 Build 83.6 server running on Win2008R2, acting as witness, and hub transport and yes is a file server too.  In addition there is relays, email and service accts that need to be moved to Exchange
    2013.  
    Presently  there are two Exchange 2013 cu3 servers that are part of a DAG that also run on Win 2008r2...  We wish to add another node to the DAG, and move the witness to another server.
    Do I need to also add a CAS Exchange 2013 server to replace the Ex 2007 server?
    Can this server also act as the Witness?
    What would be the best practices for this senario. All of these machines are VM's.

    With an odd number of nodes, the File Share Witness will not be used, but you can still define it.
    Any server ( any including any non-Exchange server) can serve as the FSW as long as its not a mailbox server n the DAG and it has the Exchange Trusted SubSystem group in the local admin group on that server.
    Since you are using VMs, ensure the FSW isn't on the same host as a MBX DAG member.
    Not sure what you mean by adding a CAS Exchange 2013 server. Do you mean you have not installed the CAS role yet for 2013? If so, then absolutetly you need one.

  • Export mailbox Data between two exchange servers

    HI All,
      We are merging to a another company and looking for best options to migrate mailboxes?
    AS

    You can transfer your Exchange mailbox data (including email, calendar, contacts, tasks, and notes) from your old Exchange account to a new Exchange account. you will need to export data from your old account, remove the old account, add the new account,
    and then import the data into your new account.
    The above reference looks a good start-up for you.
    However, if you wish to achieve this goal automatically, you may also checkout this automated solution (http://www.exchangemailboxmigration.com/) to get this job done in more hassle-free manner without

  • Configure legacy public folders where user mailboxes are on Exchange 2013 servers

    Hello all,
    I have mailboxes on an exchange 2013 server than need access to public folders on a 2010 server before I migrate them over.  I followed the commands in the TechNet article with the subject "Configure legacy public folders where user mailboxes
    are on Exchange 2013 servers" (sorry, I wasn't allowed to insert a link because I wasn't verified?).  The problem is when I run the last command of "Set-OrganizationConfig -PublicFoldersEnabled Remote -RemotePublicFolderMailboxes ProxyMailbox1,ProxyMailbox2,ProxyMailbox3"
    on the 2013 server, using the mailbox name I had created, it says it cannot be found.  Of course I checked and the mailbox exists, is configured properly, and so is the new database.  The 2013 EAC also sees the mailbox with no issues. 
    Can someone tell me why I am getting this error?
    Thanks,
    Shaibal

    Hi Mavis,
    Thank you for your response.  I am the full domain admin, and check and was part of both groups mentioned above.  Also, I have only one 2010 server with public folder, and so the command I am running on the 2013 looks like this: Set-OrganizationConfig
    -PublicFoldersEnabled Remote -RemotePublicFolderMailboxes PFMailbox1. I even just created a second user and mailbox using the console instead of the shell, and still no luck.
    Below is the error I get:
    [PS] C:\Windows\system32>Set-OrganizationConfig -PublicFoldersEnabled Remote -RemotePublicFolderMailboxes PFMailbox2
    Couldn't find object "PFMailbox2". Please make sure that it was spelled correctly or specify a different object.

  • Configuring SMTP Namespace Sharing between two Exchange Forests on the same LAN

    Hi guys, really hoping that someone can help me with configuring SMTP Namespace Sharing between two Exchange Forests on the same LAN.
    Basically, I have created a new forest and installed a new exchange organisation in this forest.  Both forests are located on the same IP subnet and a two way trust has been created between the forests.  Federated sharing has also been configured. 
    I can use ADMT to migrate the user and computer accounts to the new forest and also migrate test mailboxes over.  Ideally, I want to be able to do the mailbox migrations in stages so will need to be able to have mail flowing between the two forests. 
    I have read over the following article (http://ibrahimnore.wordpress.com/2012/09/06/configuring-smtp-namespace-sharing-between-two-exchange-forests-part-2/)
    which is good but it's demonstrating over the internet, can anybody advise how this can be achieved on the local LAN? 
    Any help greatly appreciated :-)

    Hi Gilliano,
    Thanks for correct link. I must say this is a very good article indeed, I read the entire article and if you go to the 3rd part of this article, please note the text "DOMAINC.COM is configured as Internal Relay Accepted Domain on both the domains"
    This is exactly what I asked you to check. Personally, I understand the method described in this article will work but its very complex to manage and administer, while the easiest option is to configure internal relay at the first place and no need to make
    so many DNS changes and customizations to your environment.
    The solution really depends on what your requirement is - Since you mentioned that you are migrating stuff over from source to destination - I feel this article is too complex for your situation and not really worth (for your requirement). The setup described
    in the article is an excellent choice if you are planning to keep both forests alive for longer duration due to several reasons like compliance or company mergers and so on...
    please let me know if my explanation is not clear enough.. we can even even have a one-on-one email conversation too!
    All the best!
    Please mark as helpful if you find my contribution useful or as an answer if it does answer your question. Regards, Siva

  • RPC error when configuring Exchange 2013 servers in 2nd site

    Hello. I'm running into an error when trying to configure any of my Exchange 2013 servers in my 2nd AD site. To get into the loop of what my server structure looks like, please check below:
    Site 1 servers:
    DC1 - Domain Controller
    DC2 - Domain Controller
    CAS1 - CAS server
    CAS2 - CAS server
    MBX1 - Mailbox server
    MBX2 - Mailbox server
    MATHAFTMG - TMG server
    Site 2 servers:
    CCCDC1 - Domain Controller
    CCCDC2 - Domain Controller
    CCCCAS1 - CAS server
    CCCCAS2 - CAS server
    CCCMBX1 - MBX server
    CCCMBX2 - MBX server
    CCCTMG - TMG server
    Currently I have a site-to-site vpn connection between site 1 and site 2 TMG servers via Internet connection; I can access the servers of the other site perfectly (whether I am in Site 1 or Site 2).
    All user mailboxes are currently in Site 1 MBX servers; when users are in Site 2, they connect to the CAS servers in Site 1 to access their mailboxes.
    Many users will stay permanently in Site 2, so it makes sense to have Exchange servers in Site 2 to provide faster access to mailboxes. I created the Site 2 domain controllers, and made sure AD replication is working; and it is. I then added the MBX servers
    and CAS servers in Site 2 in this order: CCCMBX1, then CCCCAS1, then CCCMBX2, then CCCCAS2.
    All Exchange servers in Site 2 installed beautifully. But then I tried to access the servers via ECP to proceed with the configuration. In ECP, I click on the server link, and all Exchange servers in both sites appear. If I try to configure the virtual directories
    of Site 1 CAS servers, no problem. But when I try to configure virtual directories of Site 2 CAS servers, I get this error message:
    The task wasn't able to connect to IIS on the server 'CCCCAS1.domain.com'. Make sure that the server exists and can be reached from this computer: The RPC server is unavailable.
    The virtual directories issue is just an example. Same thing happens if I try to configure Outlook Anywhere for Site 2 CAS servers.
    Users connect to Site 1 CAS servers via mail.domain.com. I have the A record mail.domain.com pointing to the IP address of CAS1 server, and another A record mail.domain.com pointing to the IP address of CAS2 server. Not the best load balancing going on here,
    but it works great with Exchange 2013.
    From mail.domain.com I can access OWA and ECP internally and externally; no problems there. From ECP I can access and configure any Site 1 Exchange 2013 servers.
    The only problem is when I access ECP to configure the Site 2 Exchange 2013 servers, I get the same error message:
    The task wasn't able to connect to IIS on the server '<server name>.domain.com'. Make sure that the server exists and can be reached from this computer: The RPC server is unavailable.
    Even if I try to access a Site 2 Exchange 2013 server via https://localhost/ecp to configure it, it get the same error message.
    I updated all Exchange 2013 servers in both sites to CU2 v2 and rebooted the servers in the proper order; problem still there.
    Any clue what might the problem be?

  • Error 1006 - Changing Ad Site for subnet where exchange 2013 servers was setup

    We wanted to change Ad site for subnet where exchange 2013 servers was setup.
    When we do that error id 1006 appear on 2 MBX Servers : 
    The Microsoft Exchange Mailbox Replication service was unable to process jobs in a mailbox database.
    Database: Database02
    Error: An attempt to logon cross-site for Mdb 'xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx' was prevented to Server 'yyyyyyyy-yyyy-yyyy-yyyy-yyyyyyyyyyyy' in Site 'DomainAAA/Configuration/Sites/SiteB'. Local site is 'DomainAAA/Configuration/Sites/SiteA'.
    DomainAAA - Our Domain
    SiteA - AD site which temporarily cover subnet A and Subnet B
    In subnet A are installed 2 DCs (Global Catalog) and other aplication servers.
    In subnet B are installed all EX2013 servers (2 MBX and 2x CAS) ,1 DC (Global Catalog) and other app servers.
    SiteB - new created AD site intended for subnet B
    These subnets are on diferent physical location.
    When we change Ad site for subnetB from the AD siteA to AD SiteB, above error appear.
    There is a object ExchEdgeSyncService under the AD site : SiteA ,  where the installation EX2013 was done.
    So do We need to create the new edgesyncservice under the siteB ?
    What steps do we have to make ?
    Our intention is to eventually remove all servers from the siteA and move to to SiteB.
    So that siteA will no longer exist.
    Thanks in advance , and sorry for bad english.
    Best regards

    Hi,
    Why don't you just extend the VLAN so you don't have to create another site and do changes so much

  • What is the best practice on mailbox database size in exchange 2013

    Hi, 
    does anybody have any links to good sites that gives some pros/cons when it comes to the mailbox database sizes in exchange 2013? I've tried to google it - but hasn't found any good answers. I would like to know if I really need more than 5 mailbox databases
    or not on my exchange environment. 

    Hi
       As far as I know, 2TB is recommended maximum database size for Exchange 2013 databases.

  • Probling with Throttling of Emails by Exchange 2013 servers

    We are experiecing delay of emails for users because of the Throttlig on Exchange 2013 servers.
    This is causing company wide Delay and users are complaining as it takes a lot of time for the queue to get cleared.
    We called in Microsoft and they suggested some values changes to msexchangedelivery.exe.config file
    We added the following values, but still we face issues when there is Email flood.
    Any one faced this or any suggestions that you have.
    mdimthyas

    Hi mdimthyas,
    Thank you for your question.
    Could you tell more details which throttling was configured on Exchange 2013 in organization?
    Could you tell me how long was emails in the queue?
    Are there any other issue which could help us troubleshoot.
    We could remove the customized  throttling and re-configure it to check if the issue persist.
    If there are any questions regarding this issue, please be free to let me know.

  • Howto deploy a temporary exchange 2013 server for migration between two Office 365 accounts?

    Objective:
    We plan to migrate our office 365 from our current tennant (E3) to a new tennant (M) to drastically cut our annual costs for the same services, while retaining the mail and group memberships of all our users. This will involve installing an exchange server
    to download and upload mail from the old tennant to the new tennant.
    Background: 
    We are a longtime O365 customer, and have been a customer since before the "Midsize business" plans existed. There is no "cookie cutter" migration path from E3 to M. Microsoft currently recommends deploying an MS exchange server and off-boarding
    the mailboxes from your E3 subscription and then On-boarding them to a new account under the M plan.  As ridiculous as this is, this is indeed the path our company has decided to go. It isn't cool/fair that we're being shackled to the E plans (that are
    vastly more expensive) when we're a small/midsize business that has been a longtime customer of O365, while new customers of equal size to us can expect to save over $4000 annually. The services (when compared) offered are nearly identical.
    After calling MS support several times for guidance for this issue, I am advised that we should contact a 'partner' and ask for their support in doing this migration. We did as requested and were provided a quote to the tune of approximately $15,000 to do this
    migration for us. Obviously this is unacceptable, and thus our business has decided to rely on my abilities to get it done. Again, involving an MS partner is not an option.
    Environment:
    1 MS AD domain:
    - Original FQDN was @contoso.ca of this domain and UPNs were [email protected]
    - UPN has been changed to [email protected] to allow for ADFS
    - ADFS has been deployed and SSO works for all users with UPN [email protected]
    - An "On-Prem exchange server" does not yet exist
    1 O365 Account where main tennant FQDN is @corp.com
    - There are 5 registered domains
    -contoso.ca
    -corp.com
    - contoso.legacy.ca
    -deprecated/will be deleted
    -deprecated/will be deleted
    - There are 40 E3 licenses, all using a @corp.com UPN
    - There are 5 E1 licenses (we acknowledge that these will be upgraded to an M following the migration) that use the UPN contoso.legacy.ca
    - No accounts currently use contoso.ca for email
    - O365 was upgraded to 'the latest version' sometime in summer 2013.
    Migration Plan (High Level):
    Setup a local windows server (trial license)  
      Deploy an exchange 2013 server (trial license) on the aforementioned windows server  http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/evalcenter/hh973395.aspx
      Prepare and deploy Dirsync Deployment
    of Dirsync
      Add exchange to office 365 and begin replicating the mailboxes from the cloud to the exchange server. Wait for synchronization to complete.
    More information: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh534377(v=exchg.150).aspx
    http://help.outlook.com/en-us/140/ff633682.aspx
      Evaluate total time it took to sync data. 
    Time it takes to download data to exchange should be relatively similar to time it takes to restore mail to the new service.
      Open a new office365 account under the M plan.
      Plan a 1 hour mail & contoso.ca domain login outage
      temporarily change all user UPN's to match the new tennant
      perform a dirsync to the new tennant
      disable dirsync after all accounts have been auto-created/provisioned
      re-establish UPN + mail access.
      Plan a date and time for the cut over.
      remove the exchange hybrid server from the old tennant. 
      Point MX records directly to the exchange server.
      Cut office 365 service.
      After the 30 minutes ~ 1 hour 'mandatory' wait time imposed by MS to 'register' the domain with O365, add @corp.com to
    the new tennant
      fix all user UPN's in the cloud to match their real UPN's.
    This can be done with powershell.
      attach exchange hybrid server to new tennant
      Point MX records to the new tennant 
      Migrate all data from the local exchange server to the cloud under the new plan.
    Current progress (Lab):
    I have created a sandbox (Lab with no internet access or connectivity to production) environment in VMware and cloned the following servers to it:
    1x Domain Controller (DC) running windows server 2012 (named DC02)
    1x DC running windows server 2008 R2 (named DC01)
    1x windows server 2012 R2 - prepped with all the pre-requisites to install exchange 2013. (named EXC01)
    Where I am stuck / Problem:
    I have installed exchange on the server EXC01 in the lab environment using my account. I am a domain administrator in the contoso.ca domain, but my UPN is [email protected]
    After the installation of exchange, I notice that my email address in Active Directory changed from @corp.com to @contoso.ca. By default, I do not see @corp.com to be an available email address to select as my email address, and changing it in AD does not resolve
    the problem. 
    In the exchange portal, I found "Mail flow ---> Accepted Domains", and believe I should add @corp.com to the accepted domain list. Questions:
    1) Must I add corp.com and the other domains that exist in office 365 to the local exchange before I go through with the hybrid wizard?
    2) If I must add them to exchange, I am provided with three choices: 
    - Authoritative Domain
    - Internal Relay Domain
    - External Relay Domain
    Given that the domain is currently in office365 and is authoritative there, which of these applies?
    3) Most documentation I have found has been about a one way migration from on-prem to the cloud. I have had a hard time finding a step by step guide for cloud to local (new server) and then back to cloud. Does anyone here have any good documentation for this
    process? Would love it if it took into consideration multiple UPN/email addresses.

    Hi,
    Here are my answers you can refer to:
    1. Yes, we should select the primary SMTP domain for our organization and any other accepted domains that will be used in the hybrid deployment:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj200787(v=exchg.150).aspx
    2. It depends on the usage of the specific accepted domain. And Exchange version has no influence.
    To determine it, you can firstly check the function of the three types in the following article:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb124423(v=exchg.150).aspx
    3. Here are some reference about the migration from on-premise Exchange server to Office 365:
    http://www.msexchange.org/articles-tutorials/office-365/exchange-online/configuring-exchange-2013-hybrid-deployment-migrating-office-365-exchange-online-part1.html
    Additionally, since the issue is related to Exchange online, I recommend you ask for help on our Exchange online forum to get more professional help:
    http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/msonline/en-US/home?forum=onlineservicesexchange

  • Migrating a mailbox cross forest from exchange 2013 Sp1 to exchange 2010 SP2 Update rollup 8

    Hi Steve,
    I'm a little confused what you are saying. Here is my understanding:
    When you migrate mailboxes from Exchange 2013 back to Exchange 2007, the above error occurs.
    If I have misunderstood your concern, please let me know.
    For migrating mailboxes back to Exchange 2007, there is a simple and straightforward method. Please use the New-MailboxExportRequest cmdlet to convert all mailboxes into pst files. And then use the Import-Mailbox cmdlet to import all pst files into Exchange
    2007.

  • ActiveSync is not working properly after migrating to new Exchange 2013 SP1 server?!

    Few weeks ago we have added new Exchange 2013 SP1 onto our existing Exchange 2007 environment. I have migrated my mailbox to the new Ex2013 server. Everything (send/receive - internally/externally, OWA, OutlookAnywhere) for me and the existing Ex2007
    users works fine. The only thing I have trouble with is the ActiveSync! After migrating to the new Ex2013 server my phone stops getting new emails…, existing Ex2007 users don’t have any problems with their mobile phones.
    I did ActiveSync test for my user account with ActiveSync Tester and here is what I have:
    As you can see from the error above  ActiveSync Tester detects ActiveSync on Ex2013 server however something wrong there with form-based auth?! I can’t see any differences in settings for ActiveSync virtual folders in Ex2007 and Ex2013
    virtual folders?!
    What I’m missing here?! Please help.

    Check if the Exchange Servers group does not have the appropriate permission to the mailbox object in Active Directory.
    To check whether inheritance is disabled on the user:
    1.Open Active Directory Users and Computers.
    2.On the menu at the top of the console, click View > Advanced Features.
    3.Locate and right-click the mailbox account in the console, and then click Properties.
    4.Click the Security tab.
    5.Click Advanced.
    6.Make sure that the check box for "Include inheritable permissions from this object's parent" is selected.

  • Need to know how to calculate and allocate the server side bandwidth between two exchange sites for DAG replication

    Hi All,
    Please have a look in to the below mentioned environment.
    primary site :SITE 1
    server 1 
    server 2 
    secondary site :SITE 2
    server 3
    Note : All the above three servers are in single DAG .All the database are mounted on the server (server 1) which is located in the primary site (I.E SITE 1).
    On that 5 databases we are having 3500 users .Based on the user designation we have allocated the mailbox size.
    Query : Each and every day we are having the large no copy queue length for all the five databases to the server located in SITE 2.
    Please help me out on this and also tell me is there any tool available to exactly get the required bandwidth for the exchange servers located between the active directory sites.
    Thanks & Regards S.Nithyanandham

    I don't know of any tool that can calculate things for you but latency is the biggest thing you have to worry about. The other issues is looking at the network gear between the 2 sites. I have seen many times were switches get maxed out if they are set to
    1 GB or even ports getting maxed out and need to bonded for more throughput. Test your latency from the edge of each site then test it within to see if there is a difference. 
    Regardless of their geographic location relative to other DAG members, each member of the DAG must have round trip network latency no greater than 500 milliseconds between each other member.
    As the round trip latency between two Mailbox servers hosting copies of a database increases, the potential for replication not being up to date also increases. Regardless of the latency of the solution, customers should validate that the networks between
    all DAG members is capable of satisfying the data protection and availability goals of the deployment. Configurations with higher latency values may require special tuning of DAG, replication, and network parameters, such as increasing the number of databases
    or decreasing the number of mailboxes per database, to achieve the desired goals.
    Round trip latency requirements may not be the most stringent network bandwidth and latency requirement for a multi-datacenter configuration. You must evaluate the total network load, which
    includes client access, Active Directory, transport, continuous replication, and other application traffic, to determine the necessary network requirements for your environment.

  • Outlook Users connection issues after Mailbox Migration from 2007 to 2013

    Hi,
    We have a coexistance between Exchange 2007 SP3 and Exchange 2013 CU7. There is an issue when after migrating the user from exchange 2007 mailbox to exchange 2013, the outlook keeps on prompting for password when it is being launched. Checking the Connection
    Status we found that there is a connection to the old 2007 Server and the type is Exchange Public Folder. I have migrated the public folder and checked the Mailbox of the user and found that the DefaultPublicFolderMailbox is set to the 2013 Public Folder Mailbox.
    If I check my 2013 MailboxDatabase Properties, It sill shows that PublicFolderDatabase Properties is still pointing to the 2007 Public Folder Database. Any resolution on this?
    Another issue is, We set outlook anywhere on the 2013 to use basic authentication, however, when users are migrated to 2013 the Outlook client changes to NTLM. even if we set the outlook to basic to make it work, it still comes back to NTLM after a while.
    I did most of the resolutions online to use powershell to make changes to outlook anywhere but no luck. any suggestions is highly appreciated.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Arthur

    Hi,
    For the first problem, please check the msExchHomePublicMDB attribute for mailbox database in Exchange 2013, you can check this attribute in ADSIEdit.
    If this attribute is pointing to Exchange 2007 public folder database, please set to blank. After that, please restart the information service.
    And for the second question, I suggest we open a new case for this issue. In order to avoid confusion and keep track of troubleshooting steps, we usually troubleshoot one
    issue per thread in order to find a resolution efficiently.
    Thanks for your understanding.

  • Public Folders on multiple Exchange 2013 servers

    Two companies (lets call them WestCoast Company and EastCoast Company) have merged. Each one has Ex2010 with PFs of local scope (the companies don't need access to each other's PFs). I want to move them to a single Exchange Organization with one Exchange
    server in each office and possibly a 3rd Exchange in a data center. I am looking for the best/simplest solution for those legacy PFs. Questions:
    - With Exchange 2010 I can only have one PF database so I will have to merge the PF structures. If the "master" PF DB sits in the data center I can choose which folders to replicate to each regional Exchange server (ie I can have only WestCoast
    folders on the WestCoast Exchange and similar for East Coast). Are these statements correct?
    With Exchange 2013:
    - Can I have more than one PF trees (one per PF mailbox) or am I limited to a single PF hierarchy?
    - If only one PF hierarchy, am I forced to have one location that holds all the content or can the content remain distributed in different locations?
    - Can I have content (or PF mboxes) that only show up on some of the Exchange servers? (ie WestCost PFs will show up only on WestCoast Exchange)
    - Do the PF limits (10,000 folders, 1 million items, etc) apply per PF mbox or for the whole thing?
    Thanks

    There is just one public folder hierarchy.  You can assign sub-trees under the root to different mailbox databases, though, and through permissions you could restrict who can see each of them.
    You can have public folder mailboxes mounted in different mailbox databases, with different databases mounted in different locations.  So you could have the Europe folders in a mailbox in a mailbox database mounted on a European server, and the Americas
    folders in a mailbox in a mailbox database mounted on an Americas server.
    You can do that but only by grouping public folder mailboxes in mailbox databases that are mounted where you want them to be mounted.  As stated before, you might be able to hide folders through permissions, not by where they are mounted.
    Yes, the 10,000-folder limit applies to the organization.  If you have more than that, wait until the limit is increased.
