F*cking Exchange Inter Forest Mailbox Migration


Open Powershell on Exchange 2007

First you need to set your Source & Target Credentials.

$c = Get-Credential

(Here you will be asked to enter your login credentials (with domain admin rights) on current domain)

$t = Get-Credential

(enter login credentials for Target Domain Controller)

Move-Mailbox -TargetDatabase "pwgmail1\First Storage Group\Users" -Identity clone -GlobalCatalog ***rootdc1.corp.***t.co.uk -SourceForestGlobalCatalog manx99.**** -NTAccountOU "OU=Admin,OU=User Accounts,DC=corp,DC=****,DC=co,DC=uk" -SourceForestCredential $SourceCredential -TargetForestCredential $TargetCredential


Errors Encountered:

"Failed to reconnect to Active Directory" (what does this mean? not a f*cking idea)

Check the Eventviewer - this will tell you that it is unable to connect to the domain you are trying to migrate your mailbox to.
