New Local Move Request Script for Exchange 2010 mailboxes

Hi I would like to have a script that can enable me automatically move mailboxes of certain domains to a new mailbox database. E.g.  new local move request to move only 20 mailboxes in mailboxdatabase01 with the domain name:  mymove.com, moving
it to mailboxdatabase05. Also, I want to be able to adjust the number of mailboxes to move. Thanks in advance.

Wrap this, or something similar, into a script that filters out the users with that domain in a particular DB.
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd876878(v=exchg.141).aspx
And some filtering examples are in here:
http://blogs.technet.com/b/rmilne/archive/2014/03/24/powershell-filtering-examples.aspx
I doubt there is a sample script out there that does exactly what you want, so you'll have to do some coding.
Cheers,

  • Outlook 2007 Clients Cannot Access Free/Busy Calendar info. for Exchange 2010 Mailbox

    Hi:
    I have Outlook 2007 clients that cannot access Free/Busy Calendar info. for Exchange 2010 mailboxes.  They receive error like "...you do not have appropriate permissions..."
    If those same users logon to a machine running Outlook 2010 then they can view the free/busy info. of the other user's mailbox, so I believe the permissions are set correctly on the mailbox to allow the viewing.
    Any insights are greatly appreciated!
    Thank you!
    Bob Herman IT Tropolis

    Hi Herman,
    As you said, it seems users have proper permissions on mailbox.
    Please make sure users has Reviewer permission on Outlook 2007.
    Please try to run Outlook 2007 under safe mode or re-create profile.
    Also try to turn Outlook 2007 to Exchange Online mode from Cached mode.
    Thanks

  • New Local Move Request - Error: MapiExceptionLogonFailed: Unable to make connection to the server.

    I am in the process of doing a migration from SBS 2003 std. edition to SBS 2011 std. I am at the point the migrating mailboxes from the Exch 03 server to the Exch 2010 server.  I initially received an error when selecting mailboxes that the mailbox
    db on the Exch03 server did not exist.  I followed the resolution steps from another forum post to add the Exch 2010 server to the "first administrative group" via the security tab and give full permissions.  This solved that issue and
    I was able to proceed through the wizard to actually create the local move request.  However, after processing the request, I get the following error...

  • New Local Move Request Stuck at 0% as queued

    Dear Sir,
    Environment: Company has two sites having multiple DCs, 4 Mailbox Servers (2 on each site) in a single DAG, 4 Hub/CAS servers (2 on each site).
    I moved user mailbox from CRP Tier 5 to CRP tier 7, the mailbox size is around 600 MB, it has been showing as queued status for 21 hours. Both database are mounted on a same Mailbox Server.
    One thing more I am using Exchange 2010 Sp2 RU1 version 
    -- Regards Ahsan Kamal | MCITP

    I have seen issues with BB users who's mailboxes were moved to a different DB lost connectivity to their mailboxes. This was resolved by re-running bes install, which gives a selection for choosing mailbox DB's
    however I did find this post
    Set-MailboxDatabase -DataMoveReplicationConstraint None
    which allows data to be moved on active DB's replicating in a DAG... 
    hope this helps...

  • New Local Move Request fails with error "Multiple objects with Guid hex octet string were found."

    I can find nothing searching online.  Trying to move the last user mailbox from one server to another, but it fails with this error.  I have checked all mailboxes for the same GUID but can't locate it anywhere.  Anybody have some suggestions?

    Does anyone know if there is a way to perform a search based on mailbox GUID?  Maybe I could find all objects with the same and it could lead me in the right direction.
    Hi,
    To find the object that belongs to a GUID, you can refer to this blog.

  • Exchange 2013 shell mailbox move requests showing up on 2010 hub server

    We're in the process of migrating from exchange 2010 to 2013. All servers are patched and up to date. We have two 2010 CASs (one for external OWA use only) and a mailbox cluster. Our exchange 2013 setup is almost a mirror with the exceptions of how the exchange
    server roles have changed.
    Any new-moverequest commands entered from the either of our exchange 2013 CAS servers fail to show up in the EAC/recipients/migration page.
    If the local move request is done in the EAC the batch(es) show up just fine.
    The more perplexing part is: while I was going through a 2010 hub (looking for a different issue) I noticed ALL the batches/mailbox moves that weren't showing up in the 2013 EAC were listed in the 2010 move request section.
    I can't get any info on the moves in the 2010 console (because they're 2013 jobs) but i can get statistics and such from a 2013 shell.
    any ideas?

    Are you running ex2013SP1 CU6? Can you try to update n check?

  • Converting a VBScript for Exchange 2003 to Function the same for Exchange 2010

    Converting a VBScript for Exchange 2003 to Function the same for Exchange 2010
    Afternoon;
    I've run into a problem at this time.  We are currently looking into migrating from Exchange 2003 into Exchange 2010 and I'm finding that my normal data collection method is no longer usable in Exchange 2010.  I have the script posted below as of
    what I'm currently using to collect my information, I just need to know of a means to continue the collection when we move to the new Exchange server.  Any assistance in getting this to function with Exchange 2010 would be great.

    Okay, then what about an alternative for getting the same result. The file associated in the article is too much.  All we need is something simple for a single exchange server with 180 users.  We only need to pull UserName and DataSize(KB).
    I only need to collect two pieces of information from the exchange server and the third piece is forced due to the date of when the information was collected.  This way I can sort and filter by Date and Name to see a trend of the users mailbox usage
    size.
    Every day this runs, it determines the date of the file which is also the first piece, then pulls from the exchange server the entire list of users (the second piece), and then the respective user's mailbox size in KB (the third piece).  This all is
    dropped into a CSV file later used to import into a database before being archived, done by a second task on the server.  Later used by a shared Excel PowerPivot document among the department.
    Those of us in the server admin group use this to, at a glance, see the collective size of email usage on the server.  Mainly used as a means of catching an incident before it happens.  We are currently keeping our users around a collective 80GB
    of use out of the well received limit of 110GB on Exchange 2003 and limiting the user's ability to send and receive email by email quota is apparently not accepted for us to do.  So we use this to determine who we need to visit and force archive their
    email so the server doesn't fail due to the size limit.
    VBScript is what I prefer. All scripts must have a kill switch to manage them from a primary location. Mine, is an updater method.

  • Issue with Update Rollup 5 for Exchange 2010 SP3 - Mailboxes that were auto mapped not working

    Below is  my response in another thread but creating a new one in the hopes that someone has the same issue and a solution besides mine below.
    Ever since we installed Update Rollup 5 for SP3 Exchange 2010 mailboxes that were auto mapped are not accessible. They all get the same error.
    Cannot expand the folder. The set of folders cannot be opened. The attempt to log on to the Microsoft Exchange has failed.
    What I have been doing is removing the users permission, then adding them back using the noautomap switch in Powershell. After doing that, the user manually adds the mailbox and all is well.
    Just a note here, I suspect it may have something to do with the version of Outlook 2010. We are running an older version here. I think only SP1 with no other incremental updates. Office is up to SP2. Also, one of the users I was working with could not access
    the mailbox no matter what we tried but she can walk over to another workstation and open Outlook and access the very same mailbox so that pretty much proves its software related particularly with Outlook.
    I cannot reproduce the problem on a workstation (XP) with a newer version of Outlook.
    This has been wearing me out and I suspected the Update Rollup all long. Now I am confident as others are having the same problem. If you find out anything on how to fix this other than the steps above, let me know.

    Not sure why it was suggested to use the auto mapping feature to grant permissions because that is the component that is causing the issue. Also, there is nothing wrong with the auto configuration because the user can access their own mailbox just fine and
    also select mailboxes in their Outlook that were NOT auto mapped.
    With that said, here is how I fixed them all.
    Remove the permissions using the Exchange Console. Don't forget Send As
    Wait about 15 minutes. The mailbox should disappear from the users Outlook
    Open an Exchange PowerShell window and run the following command:
    .\add-mailboxpermissionsnoautomap.ps1 -Identity mailbox -User user -AccessRights FullAccess
    Have the user add the mailbox to their Outlook using the manual process.
    All is well....
    If you don't have the PS script add-mailboxpermissionsnoautomap.ps1, you can download it. I stumbled across it a few years ago and use it all the time. If you can't find it, just use the Exchange built in command for adding mailbox folder permissions but
    specify automap $false.
    The idea here is to grant the user access without auto mapping.

  • No "New Remote Move Request" option anymore

    We have been migrating mailboxes from Ex2010SP1 to Office365 using the EMC, and it's generally been going well. However, several of the migration mailboxes failed, and I could remove the move request from the O365 forest without issues and the mailbox
    would become available for migrating again, but several of them do not. They have stayed with the green icon as though they should still be migrating, yet they have no move request left as I deleted the failed move requests. (I confirmed via
    Powershell). It has been several days for most of these ones, yet they still are not available to migrate again. Other mailboxes that have not yet migrated are still available and have the option to do a "New Remote Move Request" as normal.
    Has anyone else encountered this or have any suggestions for a solution to make them available to migrate again?
    Ex2010SP1 on WinServer2008

    Hi SeanW74,
    Per your description, you migrate the exchange email system to Office 365, and have some issue with the mailboxmoverequest.
    Could you please check the moverequest using get-moverequest and post the information here.
    How about to reboot the exchange server and make a test?

  • Local move requests stuck with status "queued" at 0% completion

    Hello all,
    I'm running Exchange server 2010 SP3 with no aditonal RU.
    Suddenly we are unable to perform local move requests of mailboxes between databases.
    The requests will turn up in the list at Recipient "Configuration\Move Requests" but remain the with status Queued with 0% completion.
    It does not matter if the move request is initiated by EMC of the Shell.
    I cant find a solution so if someone has some advise that would be great,
    I tried the following:
    - Restarted the Mailbox Replication service on the CAS server
    - Rebooted the Mailbox, CAS and Edge server
    - Run a Test-MRSHealth check against the CAS
    - Checked all logs but there are no related entries
    - Checked my admin account permissions
    - Checked if it is related to certain mailboxes and source and destination databases which isn't the case
    What else can I do or check?
    Kind regards,
    Alex

    Hi,
    You mentioned you checked the event log, but there was no related events.
    Have you tried to use the get-moverequest | get-moverequeststatistics cmdlet to check result?
    If no, please run this command to see if there is any clues that can be used to narrow down this issue.
    Best regards,

  • Critical event Ids for exchange 2010

    Hi Striker11,
    Thank you for your question.
    I agree with Martin. We should find a tool to monitor those errors or warning. Because there are many Event IDs in Exchange 2010. If those errors or warnings are both important for Exchange maintenance. If Exchange 2010 update to Exchange 2013, we will still
    use tool to monitor it and not modify the script.
    We could download SCOM by the following link:

    If there are any questions regarding this issue, please be free to let me know.

  • Forefront for exchange 2010 - how long?

    Hi there.
    Read this article: http://blogs.technet.com/b/server-cloud/archive/2012/09/12/important-changes-to-forefront-product-roadmaps.aspx
    I would have additional question.
    Our company is MS Gold Partner and we need to renew our yearly license every year around AUGUST.
    We are thinking about changing our SPAM filter external gateway with exchange edge, but as we can see from that article, you Will be unable to renew it license after December 2015.
    I know that Microsoft offers online Forefront protection but that is not option in our case because of data sensitivity.We need an answer how long we Will be able to get updates regarding forefront for exchange 2010 and be licensed ok?
    I guess after 2015 december Forefront Exchange 2010 Will no longer recieve spam updates thru Windows update, right?
    And also engines Will not be updated after that date?
    Is this the correct view and understanding?
    with best regards

    Hi Bostjanc,
    >>how long we Will be able to get updates regarding forefront for exchange 2010 and be licensed ok?
    I think you must have seen the information below in that blog.
    For current customers, Microsoft will continue to support the subscription through Dec.31, 2015. If customer subcriptions expire before Dec.31, 2015, and annot be renewed because the product is no longer offered, these products will continue to be supported
    through that date in order to provided with customers sufficient time to move to alternative solutions.
    You could also check the following blog.

  • Forefront protection for exchange 2010 - updates?

    Installed Exchange EDGE server with Forefront Protection for Exchange 2010.
    Installed hotfix update rollup 4 for forefront (I think it's the latest because I haven't found any newer).
    We have basically left everything on default in forefront, and if we take a look on dashboard in gui we see this error message:
    not all the antimalware engines selected in the forefront adminstration console for scanning have been enabled for updates.
    where should we take a look whats not being updated. Please a little help.
    with best regards,
