I have another suggestion that I feel works better as we have moved lots of users and used it after a large migration. After your Store retention time has elapsed, and the stores are empty, simply dialtone the old exchange stores. You can dialtone the stores by dismounting all the stores in the applicable Storage groups, removing all the store files and log files and then mounting the store again. White space all gone, a new store is there and no work! Dialtoning is a Microsoft Supported procedure, check it out on google!
