do the move-mailbox reports persist somewhere locally after the request gets cleared from the EMC? a colleague cleared it, not certain if they continue to live as a file on the local system or if they get zapped with the clearing of the move request.
this one wasn't just expired calendars, definitely chunks of email that were otherwise fine in 2003 until the move. -----Original Message----- From: Michael B.

Historically speaking, I've generally found these to be expired calendar entries (i.e., not really important). Regards, Michael B.

First few test mailboxes I moved threw an alarmingly high rate of 'corruption', one example being a 700Mb mailbox with 30,000 items losing 19,000 of them. Not my first Exch2010 migration by any stretch, but the first time I've seen an alarming corruption rate from 2003 to 2010 ... aside from going back and re-doing some offline work to 'neaten up' the legacy DBs on 2003, has anyone else seen similar craziness? I'm trying to avoid the creation of 700Gb of PSTs and subsequent scripting purgatory, so thought I'd hit the list for a sanity check before I crack open a PSS case. Rick Ps. Used the EMC to create the move requests, can't use "-1" as an unlimited flag anymore, but learned that you can use literally the word 'unlimited' at the PS prompt with the -AcceptLargeDataLoss flag. But I didn't mean THAT large. 8^) --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe exchangelist --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe exchangelist --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe exchangelist
