Migrate a Single User from GW7 to Exchange 2003

Does anyone have experience migrating a single user from GroupWise 7 to Exchange 2003? We have a business unit that we acquired several years ago and no decision has been made to this point about merging the two e-mail systems (we are GroupWise 7 and they are Exchange 2003). I have just been asked about moving one of our employees to their business unit and want to know my options.
My gut says that we should keep him on GroupWise because that is what he knows and loves, then we can use this as a first crack in getting GroupWise over there.
I have found a few Microsoft articles that reference setting up the API gateway and migrating data through there, but everything mentioned is either GroupWise 5.5 or 6.x. Also, based on our past experiences with the API gateway we would like to avoid that if possible.
We have an implementation of the Novell GroupWise Gateway for Microsoft Exchange, but that presumably does not help us in this situation.
Are there any utilities out there? Anything that could take a GroupWise Native Archive and convert it to the Outlook equivalent? Even if it was like an archive that he had to manually open from time to time, I'm betting that would be good enough.

Yes, I have lots of experience. The Microsoft articles that you refer to basically involve setting up co-Existence between GW and Exchange. They all refer to GW 6.5, but it works with GW7. It is just not "officially" supported by Microsoft. The other thing to be aware is that the Microsoft Connector for GroupWise comes with Exchange 2003 and links in with the Novell API Gateway 4.1. The Newer Novell Gateway for Exchange sort of replaces this Microsoft tool, but you are not going to find it much better as a gateway. Too many issues and not nearly enough documentation on the web.
Also, you can use the migration wizard from the Exchange 2003 installation to migrate a user from GW to Exchange (with or without co-existence set up) . It works fine to migrate all of the users mail, appointments, etc. Does not destroy the GW mailbox, so you can do a dry run to see how it works. Does not migrate their personal address books though.
The Wizard can create the user for you in Exchagne 2003, but it can only create an Exchange 2003 Legacy account. If you are running Exch2007, set up the user first, then migrate.
Hope that helps.

Can I migrate users from a hosted Exchange 2010 to Office 365 Enterprise E1 without the need of third party software?

I am hoping I am posting to the correct forum. We are currently using a hosted Exchange 2010 service through Intermedia and due to continuing issues with them and the pricing, we are getting ready to migrate to Microsoft’s Office 365 Enterprise
E1 platform. My question is this, besides the fact that we will need to set up ADFS for SSO, will I be able to migrate our existing mailboxes from Intermedia to Office 365 without having to purchase additional software?
The current configuration we have with Intermedia allows for us to use OWA and our OST files for our current users are cached locally on the workstations.
We also do not have any public folders in use. I have searched the web, but I have not been able to find a definitive answer or steps that I should take to prepare for this type of migration.
Any suggestions on this matter would be appreciated. Thank you.

It looks as I should be able to from reading that article. Not sure why the company that want to set this all up for me wanted $12,000 for something I can do with 6 steps.
Thank you

How can i migrate a single application from my old macbook to my new macbook

Can I migrate only single applications or files using the migration assistant? how?

I feel I've explained plenty what you must do but you aren't getting it.
All music on your old iPhone should be in your iTunes library on your computer. Transfer the music from your iTunes library on your computer to your new iPhone in the same way it was transferred from your iTunes library to your old iPhone - via the iTunes sync/transfer process.
Since you prefer the manual way, you must manually drag and drop the same 377 songs from your iTunes library to your new iPhone - in the same way the 377 songs were manually transferred from your iTunes library to your old iPhone.
Or you can sync which provides more options overall. Create an iTunes playlist for the 377 songs. Select Sync Music under the Music tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes and choose selected playlists, artists, albums, and genres. Select the iTunes playlist below that includes the 377 songs followed by a sync.

Use the migration wizard and set it to merge, the deltas should be added ok and anything that exists in both systems should get a number added at the end.

Transfer of user from one AD / Exchange domain to another AD / Exchange domain

Hi All,
I want evaluate transfer of user scenario from one AD domain to Another AD domain using out of box AD connector.I have three AD domain in one Forest as below.
Root - example.com
           |_____domain1.example.com
           |_____domain2.example.com
           |_____domain3.example.com
In my case i have two attributes on which I need to transfer user from one AD domain to another AD domain. e.g. suppose from trusted source if I changed the MINOR_ORG_CODE and MAJOR_ORG_CODE, transfer of user event should get initialized and user should transfer from one AD domain to another AD domain.Once user transfer from one AD domain to another AD domain, he/she should be de-provision from previous domain.While transfer his mail box or exchange account should also be transfer from one exchange domain to another exchange domain.Exchange domain is also in same forest.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Nitin Natekar

Case 1:
Here you can written pre-update event handler which will check whether minor and major org code changed or not.
If changed then first starts de-provisioning and then start provisioning.
If not changed then do nothing.
This approach will not transfer accounts from one domain to another but it will create fresh accounts and remove accounts from old domain.
Case2:
If you want to transfer accounts from one domain to another in that on pre-update you have to change OU of user on process which automatically move to another domain.
but not sure about exchange it is possible to move to another domain.
hopping that all domains under same forest otherwise same Connector Sever will not work.

Deletions and changes not being replicated from handset to Exchange 2003 server for one user

Good afternoon,
We have an issue where-by one of our Q10 handsets isn't replicating deletions and moving of mail back to Exchange 2003. If the user marks mail as read or deletes in Outlook, the change appears straight away on his Q10. His previous Q10 worked correctly, as do all of our other v10 devices.

Trying to recover a mailbox from an old Exchange 2003 server

I still have a 2003 server in my environment but all functions and mailboxes are on Exchange 2010. The only reason the 2003 server is still around is for the off chance of requiring a restoration which has now come up. I have successfully restored a
mail store to a recovery storage group but I am unable to export mailboxes from it using exmerge.
I get the following error:
[10:16:16] Copying data from mailbox 'Jacques Legare' ('LEGARE') on Server 'MAIL-SERVER' to file 'C:\TEMP\LEGARE.PST'.
[10:16:16] Error opening message store (MSEMS). Verify that the Microsoft Exchange Information Store service is running and that you have the correct permissions to log on. (0x8004011d)
[10:16:16] Errors encountered. Copy process aborted for mailbox 'Jacques Legare' ('LEGARE').
I have read many, many articles regarding the requirement for “send as” permission. I have granted send as permissions to several different domain accounts and local accounts on the Exchange server but I get the same result with all of them.
It looks like the problem may be because the mailbox no longer exists on the Exchange 2003 server.
So what do I have to do to recover this mailbox? Can I create a mailbox for this user on the 2003 server without messing up his the mailbox on the 2010 server? Instead of restoring to the recovery storage group, should I restore and overwrite the original mailbox
store? Again, will that mess up anything with the 2010 server?

0x8004011d is permission related Error.
Refer to the link below and download EXMERGE guide which has complete procedure documented.
https://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/office/Guide-to-Use-Exmerge-to-fd00af49
If the mailbox that need to be restored has to be extracted from RSG is already moved to Exchange 2010 then you will not be able to run exmerge against it.
You might have to update the attribute MsExchOrigMDB on the RSG to point to Exchange 2010 Database where the mailbox is now located.
even this information is enclosed in the EMERGE Guide.

Relay issue from Unix across Exchange 2003 OWA server in Exchange 2010 environment

Hi,
I'm trying to resolve an issue. We have one Exchange 2003 server left in our environment. The rest is now Exchange 2010. We are working to decommission this server. Monitoring the SMTP logs, I am working with the various groups to get the traffic
off this server and onto the Exchange 2010 environment.
The issue we are finding is with a work flow. This Java app for eBis sends email to users. This is done correctly through Exchange 2010 and gets delivered from our HUB/CAS servers to the target user mailbox. This email has several links the user must click
for approving or rejecting requests. Upon clicking Approve, a new email window opens (we use Outlook 2010). The TO address is in the format of [email protected] Upon clicking Send, our Exchange 2010 HUB/CAS servers accept the
email, because one of our send connectors has, as address space, *.domain.corp. However, the email address being used it not an alias on any Exchange 2010 mailbox, so it appears Exchange 2010 is sending this email on to the Exchange 2003 server, which
also is an SMTP server. I *think* this server is looking at the address after @ to determine where to send it (ebisserver.domain.corp, which is valid in our DNS), and sends it on to that server, where the java "listener" program intercepts
the mail, processes it and then saves it to a file somewhere.
We are at a loss as to how to get Exchange 2010 to do this instead of Exchange 2003... once this traffic is eliminted from Exchange 2003, I can proceed with decommission of this server. Any help troubleshooting this issue is appreciated.

The only reason the Exchange 2010 server would route outbound mail through an Exchange 2003 server is that you have an SMTP Connector defined on the Exchange 2003 server that has a more specific domain than you have on the Exchange 2010 server. You
should be able to see all your Send Connectors (an SMTP Connector on Exchange 2003 looks like a Send Connector in Exchange 2010) by running Get-SendConnector.

Error migrating user from on-premises Exchange to Exchange online

We have a hybrid configuration with our on-premises Exchange 2010 server and our Office 365 Exchange Online server (if this should be posted in the Exchange 2010 forum instead, let me know, but I figured we have one of each). We have been doing remote
moves, and all but two of them are finished. The two remaining are refusing to go, and I've done extensive searching but haven't been able to resolve the issues.
The first mailbox returns this error message:
Error: MissingExchangeGuidException: The user object for ‎nnn
does not have a valid ExchangeGuid property and cannot be migrated.
The second mailbox returns this error message:
Error: MigrationTransientException: Couldn‎'t find a move request that corresponds to the specified identity
<‎identity>.
We've tried moving both mailboxes several times (deleting the migration batch after each error) with no luck. The migration for both of these users are being done as separate batches with one user in each batch. They are being created via the
Exchange Admin Center from the Office 365 admin portal. Any suggestions on what to do next?

Hi Dave,
I have gone thorough your query, its ok. Pplease follow this informative article that provides the steps Mailbox Migration to Exchange Online : https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj863291%28v=exchg.150%29.aspx
In addition if you want to move mailboxes automatically you may also have a look on
Lepide Exchange Recovery Manager that could be a good alternative solution for you.
It is complete disaster recovery, backup restoration, and Exchange to Exchange or Exchange to Office 365 migration tool and one stop solution.

Migration of Unity users from MS Exchange server 2007 to 2010

Hi,
I am having Unity 7.0 with MS Exchange server 2007,now want to transfer the users and Unity mailboxes to MS Exchange server 2010. Want to know the procedure. Can anyone help me out?

The way you're doing it has two very high hurdles.
First, you have to get the data out of an offline server and into Office 365. That's hardly a trivial task. If the server were online and reachable by the Internet you could use a move request or a third-party tool like MigrationWiz.
Second, if you do get the mail moved, you will want to synchronize the legacyExchangeDN attribute from the old organization into an X500 proxy address in Office 365 for all mailboxes to preserve mail replyability.

Just Bought New Mac Mini Server and Need Help on Migrating Old Single User

This is for my home / home office The issue is I was unable to connect to my old computer using migration assistant for some reason, but I didn't want to go down a rabbit hole to figure it out.
I would like to transfer all of my applications and prefs / settings to the new machine and I was thinking about using a synching program to do it so I wouldn't mess with the SL Server settings. I suppose I could do this manually but am concerned some hidden files or settings may not get moved properly. I am able to mount my old hard drive on the new mini so I just need a strategy. Thanks.

Good question - my angst is subsiding as I type. I was concerned that my preferences and other application linked things like Application Support were the same as it was, but I suppose if I have to mess a bit with it upon opening or reinstalling a program is the worst thing that will happen. After going thru the list of programs I realize that like most people I regularly use about 15% of the things in my Applications folder. The biggest hassle is Adobe CS4 which I need to get reauthorized by Adobe and this could only have been solved if I de-authorized it before blowing out my earlier computer. Luckily that is worst issue I am encountering.
