Hello,
I would like to get feedback on a plan to carry out an AD/Exchange migration.
Source (Exchange 2003) = DomainA
Target (Exchange 2010) = DomainB
Initially we would like to migrate mailboxes from DomainA to DomainB but leave the current AD accounts in the source enabled. We would like to create linked mailboxes and leave users logging into the source domain but using target mailboxes (resource Forrest).
To achieve this I have configured AD domain pair in QMMAD and configured the syncronisation node. This has sucessfully created the disabled AD accounts in target together with linked mailboxes with the correct attributes.
I then created legacy mailbox and calendar sync collections and sucessfully synced mailbox content and calendar content to these mailboxes in the target.
The question I have is what are the next steps? Do I just need to "switch" the mailbox and then reconfigure user profiles in the source to point to the target Exchange server?
Also, what happens with calendar, full mailbox access permissions? Would I need to run the exchange processing wizzard?
At the moment we just want to migrate mailboxes, the AD accounts, fileservers etc will be migrated later.
Thanks
Mark
