Hybrid Deployment
Hi I am currently in the process of migrating our mailboxes from on premise to office 365. I have managed to do almost half of the mailboxes. Where the issue lies is when i open on premis EMC, under recipient configuration there are mutiple move requests. When i then go to mail under recipient configuration, i cannot carry out "new remote move request" for the people who are in the move request tab. Is there a way around this, the people who are in the move requests are fairly older colleugues who i think were present when the company was on exchnage 2007. We are currently using Exchange server 2010 SP2 Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

You should remove completed (or failed) move requests.Ed Crowley MVP "There are seldom good technological solutions to behavioral problems."

Move requests to Office 365 are to be made using Exchange Online PowerShell, not EMC.Ed Crowley MVP "There are seldom good technological solutions to behavioral problems."

Hi Ed Many thanks for your reply. Could you give an example Power Shell script on how to do this, so that i can get my head around this. Many thanks Khurram

You don't need a script to move a mailbox, it's a single command. From Exchange Online PowerShell, run a command like the following: New-MoveRequest -Identity upn@company.com -Remote -RemoteHostName 'webmail.company.com' -TargetDeliveryDomain 'company.mail.onmicrosoft.com' Ed Crowley MVP "There are seldom good technological solutions to behavioral problems."
